I will never understand why people tote 3 as one of the better movies. 1 is decent, and 5-8 are p decent, but 2, 3, and 4 are all garbage.

There are a few decent shots in 3 but he got the tone of the book completely wrong, and the casting was absolute shit.

Admittedly it's a curious shot. Perhaps the director was going for something different and innovative, something to distinguish this and the other films in the series from everything else, so as not to become one of the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises. 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.

Not him but you are so dumb yo can't even realize how kino the shot is

The dementors make you depressed when they are around and suck your soul when close by. Harry is depressed all year. The final shot shows him with his face distorted like when the dementors attack. Except instead of dementors he is actually happy and whizzing on his broom.

Adult children never can.
