If only weak CGI would be the problem here. But no, the bigger issue is that it is one of the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises. Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.
Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."
I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Is this one of the most poignant scenes in cinematic history?
In the midst of all the chaos, the young boy stands to salute and sing his welsh lullaby as he watches the new recruits fly off into battle. He knows nothing really about war, and the politics surrounding it, but he understands the soldier's courage and bravery, as human beings. He doesn't see them as his enemy, but as men who are about to risk their lives for honor.
shut up faggot

I like him but every film he's in is a disaster.

Yeah it went to this Guy/Girl
>>84681891
It honestly disturbs me that he looks more masculine as a women than he ever does as a man.
do you think we'll get something after this? would you like a third show?
C'mon at least an earth and fire avatar
>>84681404
I definitely don't want more avatar set after Korra. Korra ruined everything with big dumb robots and you can't uninvent the big dumb robots. I don't want robots I want magic kung fu adventures.
I'd be down for a continuation of the original series though. I know that they did a comic series of avatar continuing after the end of TLA.
>>84681509
Korra was the Earth avatar you idiot.

Even actor Tobey Maguire wasn’t safe from Raimi’s twisted vision.
“One time he yelled ‘cut’ and I turned to him and he said ‘what if someone just walked into the holocaust museum and yelled 'cut'? Maybe the orthodox Jews in suits would forget their trained routine of peddling that hoax’ My jaw hit the floor and it never really came back up. That’s when I thought, is he trying to make my character into a white nationalist, or has whiteness been crucial to Spider-man's identity all along?”
“Sometimes i would go to look into the cameras, and I noticed Raimi had put something in the lens. It was stuff like ‘What if cameras were Kar98s? Would you be a Einsatzgruppe?’ and ‘Lights. Camera. Hail victory!.’ I had to ask him to stop because I was getting too scared to act.”
Real talk though
>THE NEXT DAY. Tight on Peter as he wakes up. He opens his eyes cautiously. Not knowing what to expect. PULL BACK to reveal that he is still in bed. All is normal. He breaths a sigh of relief. In fact... he feels pretty good. Lots of energy. He pulls back the covers and...
>Something is causing the sheet to stick to him. He lifts it, revealing a sticky, white mass completely covering him, gluing him to his bedding. It is some silky substance webbing him into the covers. He cries out in dismay... struggling to free himself from the gluey strands. Where did it come from? He notices his wrists...
>They are oozing a pearlescent white fluid from almost invisible slits about a quarter of an inch long. He pushes on the skin next to one of the slits and... a dark shape, the size and color of a rose-thorn... emerges from beneath the skin. It shoots a jet of liquid silk into his face.
>Peter screams at the top of his lungs.

How do you feel that the reason he doesn't have web shooters is because his spider powers are puberty and that the webs are cum?

Of course he could, he has spider-sense. He'd see every punch coming.
