Anyone else find this scene stupid as fuck?
HArry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban probably could have been one of my all time favorite films up until this scene, but it was so over the top and out of place just for shock value.
Im not sure how much of the movie was left but at this point it was so retarded and i was so pissed off that they would put in such a stupid scene i just thought fuck this movie and left the theater.
still don't even know how it ends.

How many times do you need to post this
This post is duller than the franchise.
After watching this "film" I longed for an ending shot no matter how ridiculous. I’d have even accepted being in the middle of an ending SHOOTING if it meant freedom, an escape from this miserable charade - could there be a more appropriate end to 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.
The ending shot of Prisoner of Azkaban is quite possibly the most poignant shot of the 21st century.
Throughout all of the movie we see Harry Potter having his happiness drained out of him by the Dementhors.
In the end, the Dementhors die, and Harry receives a broom from his newly discovered godfather. A Thunderbolt 3001.
He takes it out for a ride, but happiness is still being drained from him.
Harry dies, as the screen fades to black.
i agree op this movie was the abosluite Fucking worst. Sick of seeing it shilled on this website so many time. desu I dont blame you for walking out when you did - In fact I did the same very the same thing that you did to.

Noooooo, nooo, no, no.
You aren't supposed to use Swan Song! When I put that there, it didn't occur to me at the time that the picture was meant to piss people off. It's a shitpost! Putting Swan Song in "god tier" (as it's meant to be, mind you) irritates no one! Seriously, take it out and replace it with Ayn Rand. THAT gets the juices flowing.
This scene and the music is amazing.
