I don't understand why it gets so much flak, I thought it was just as entertaining as 3.

6 and 7 part 1 are the stinkers.

>6 and 7 part 1 are the stinkers.
christ m8 those are pure kinography

It's badly (over)acted, it butchers the plot to the point of becoming nonsensical, many scenes are just plain weird, everyone is hairy, and the whole film has this off kilter vibe. The director was obviously not a good fit at all, and the script was completely unable to translate the long, very structured book to a two hour film.

HOWEVER it winds up being extremely entertaining as a result. "So bad its good" and all that.

Its still better than any blockbusters made the last 6-7 years
which is a testament to how WELL DONE this franchise was

some of the stuff is genuinely well directed, but all of it is consistently batshit that it ends up working

Goblet of Fire was made on drugs, there's no other explanation.

KRUUUUUUUUUUUUM KRUUUUUUUUUUUUM

David Tennant was awful in this, what was that tongue flicker all about?

The director made everything completely 11/10
so naturally the spy bad guy is licking himself

Heath Ledger confirmed it was his biggest influence for playing the Joker.

No name is more wretched than "JK Rowling," forcing upon us 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.

Everyone was told to overact to the extreme in this movie. Its what happens when you decided to have a different director for every film.

Columbus and Yates got to do multiple entries. Thankfully Newell wasn't kept on because his movie was insane.

I was more sad that Cedric died. The chad was a good boy.

Overall PoA stands out as the only fantasy movie in the bunch. 1 and 2 are fairy tale films, 4 is some kind of parody with an accurate depiction of Voldemort's return spliced in, 6 is a based Daniel Radcliffe-as-Van Wilder remake, and 5, 7 and 8 are conveyor belt YA films.

IT WAS A NIGGER

Even then, PoA is more of a time travel movie than a fantasy one. I would still consider the first three to all be proper fantasy movies though. Fairy Tales are a legitimate form of fantasy.

I haven't seen the movies yet, can I get a quick rundown on this scenes

i think gof is the second most comfy movie. first being philosophers stone

My one complaint with 3 is they compressed parts so much that the climax makes no sense, or at least the reveal is really unclear. Someone I saw it with who hadn't read the book had no idea what was even revealed with Sirius, Wormtail, Lupin etc. They never actually say even the basic "Wormtail betrayed the Potters to Voldemort and framed Sirius then faked his death". It's just sort of a whirlwind of uncertain dialogue.

Eh, he has his limits. His style would have been very pedestrian for later entries. Cuaron was great, but I get that he has his own shit he wants to do, not be tied to 4 or 5 Potter films.

I think the school is meant to be in Scandanavia somewhere. It's Krum who's from Bulgaria.

THATS MUH BOI

Cho was miscast. Not saying she isn't cute but she should've been 9/10 chink waifu

Goblet of Fire butchered the other two schools hilariously. I don't know why they made them both single sex or into circus performers.

From what I recall in the book, Barty Crouch Jr had a forked tongue he was flick around occasionally

I'm not normally one for sweeping canon changes but they should have just called an audible and made Luna his love interest in the movies. Ginny just suddenly is a major character in the sixth movie after being basically an extra in all the others, and she's just dull and lifeless, it doesn't work at all (it has problems in the book, but Ginny at least took on more prominence in the books leading up to the sixth). The way they had Harry and Luna interact in OOTP outright felt like a romance being built up, nothing like their book relationship where she's very much just an odd friend.

Wasn't there something about Rowling forcing a recasting for one of the Slytherins because they were too cute?

Radcliffe is underrated in general, mainly for his comedic moments.

Funnily enough for all the shit it gets the Goblet of Fire film gave Ginny a little more focus, she actually has lines and is often hanging around with the main trio, it feels like what you'd do if you were planning to build her into a major character later. But then she's back to being an extra with next to no lines in OotP so it goes nowhere.

The whole thing about Crouch Jr in the book is he's not revealed to be evil until the very end, until then he's portrayed like he was an innocent kid caught up in a bad crowd. That and he's believed dead long before the book starts. In the film they just make it hilariously open that he's there and the villain.

Why even have wizard trials? Why not just give them all veritaserum (the truth potion) and be done with it?

>It takes a long time to prepare
I'm sure the Ministry could arrange for some? Or postpone the trial until they have a fair amount?

It's rare, and can be fooled if someone knows it's coming and can prepare.

3 is also the only one with virtually no real Voldemort presence to speak of. It's focused more around interpersonal relationships related to Harry. I wonder if that made the film better or worse.

Bad Dream

It made the book one of the best.

I can't believe Rowling actually understood how causal loops work pre-Wikipedia. There are way better writers that don't understand how to properly incorporate time travel, yet PoA has one of the most airtight time travel sequences I can think of.

shame a generation of readers were too stupid to get it and have cried about Time Turners and "WHY NOT GO KILL VOLDIE BABY" for twenty years.

That's Rowling for you. England and France get schools for themselves and then there is one in Scandinavia for all of Northern, Central and Eastern Europe.

BANE? WITH A LETTER?

WHO'D BE WRITING FOR YOU?

Nah the tone is too different for the later ones. It didn't fit with his more optimistic and naive style.

Because Rowling was setting the stage for the books being irellevant to movies and plays. That's why Hermione was made black and Dumbledore made a fag

He's going to say the M word

This thread made me realize that this film is nearly plane scene tier

the books change in tone at the third book and the fifth book the most
so did the films with their directors, it worked out very well i like em
columbus was the best director to have work with the first two books material
the third book was a black sheep as a book, so the film being a black sheep is only fitting but cuaron would have fit well for goblet of fire as well
i think yates' style fit 5 6

it's actually 10,000 times a better film than that nolan capetrash, even newell shits on nolan

All are good to great but 4 is the worst. And most of them are better than the first.

what the fuck has that got to do with the director, who directs the actors when filming the scenes? Given it's the same screenwriter for all but one film, why is GOF the only one where everyone is overacting and crazy?

Depends how old. 2, 3?

Are you such a fucking brainlet you don't understand the script for the goblet of fire doesn't say "dumbledore said calmy" that is only in the book
it's fucking shown differently on screen because its written differently inherently in the script.

they are overacting and that one line doesn't stand out because of it, it's delivered in that way to match the entire movie ie not an outlier

>basic bitch tier taste
You're the one who likes the part which contains the most cringey anti-estabilishment shit todays liberals look up to.

Yes clearly that was a serious post.

Olivia Colman has such range, even her height is versatile.

Too bad she has retconned how time travel works so now "WHY NOT GO KILL VOLDIE BABY" is a legitimate argument.

Tell me again why Rowling is praised?

amazing how radcliffe ended up a pretty good actor because he was the absolute worst part of that scene. i guess because he was young and the script sucked shit. but goddamn cedric father and the music killed it. christ

There's no Russians in the novels, and Seamus blowing stuff up is a thing in the films, not the books.

Watching this without sound brings a whole new perspective on it.

Lol you actually read the books ha

I'm actually a socialist, but I find the state of the american left laughable. They all look like kids playing soldiers. A revolutionary force consisting of social rejects that does more harm to their side than they think. The movie has the same feel all of that.
The 2 dimensional villain doesn't help either, but I suppose that's the case for all of Harry Potter. That's partially why the series falls apart in 4. Voldemort as the big bad guy for no reason works in a childrens movie, which the first three are. The fourth does the "oh shit people are actually dying" pretty well in my opinion. Rest of the movie feels awkward - the magic system and villains are too simple and childish for young adult movies.

There were many terrible changes in the films but I think this was probably the most galling

One thing I never understood about the blood status thing, why are you a half blood regardless of whether one of your parents was a muggle or muggleborn, surely a witch and a wizard is better than one magical and one muggle?

One drop rule.

>have literally billions in wizard goal

>Muh Aryan metaphor

It doesn't make any sense because having witch & wizard parents doesn't guarantee that you will be born with magic and people can be born with magic without magical parents.

It's like if people had White Supremecy but black and asians could randomly give birth to white children. It's illogical.
