>Underrated

You mean underrated and the best of the whole series...

Yeah, it's the best one, especially considering the snoozefest 5 was.

I loved Order of the Phoenix

Best book, worst movie. I'm still pissed at how badly they fucked up the Ministry of Magic scene. We almost had kino

>worst movie
Did you forget about Goblet of Fire?

>Best book
Not by a fucking longshot. You could tell #5 came after Rowling’s hiatus where she didn’t know what the fuck she was doing for the last few books. Everyone gets angsty, Hermione goes full activism mode with her dumb house elves liberation, and the romance subplots took up far too much time. Order was easily one of the worst books AND worst movies.

sneed

Goblet of fire = best book and movie

Opening scene is kino

Ah yes the brainlet zach is back simply because of star shit again

The only fucking movie where magic is used for something other than convenience. A full on burly brawl with wands. Shit was so cash

Goblet of fire is easily the funniest, and thus the best one.

All HP films are dull trash, the only one who manages the of somewhat entertaining is the one eyed man leading the blind.

>Everyone gets angsty, Hermione goes full activism mode with her dumb house elves liberation, and the romance subplots took up far too much time
All three of these originate in Goblet of Fire. Also
>Fifteen year olds aren't randomly angsty

It is redundant to rate the individual bleak pieces that encompass the dullest franchise 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.

Unadulterated retardation

>underrated
everything about harry potter is overrated

Everything past 4 is bland soulless garbage. Voldemort returning was the worst thing that happened to the narrative, and giving one director 4 movies was a terrible decision killing the uniqueness of each film up to that point.

they all suck

It is literally the only good film of the bunch. Not because the filmmakers did anything different, the story simply necessitated it. Exactly like Revenge of the Sith.

I just realized that 70s revival clothing in 2000s, now it's the 80s.

Best book, best movie.

Wait...do males actually read/watch this shit? Why am I seeing it on Yea Forums?

>What is LotR

the same male demographic that watches star wars and capeshit. think about it

Hillary will never be president.

Yeah B-emojiest movie of all time only im just waiting for the kiernan shipka reboot with an all anal deathly hallows 3 part trilogy finale

>That one where the defense of the dark arts teacher is the bad guy
Oh wait that's all of them.

>Wait, people actually have different tastes to ME?!?

I have never met a male HP fan irl. But nearly every chick I ever met irl has been a fan. I assumed it was a series for women, like Twilight, or American Horror Story.

Are you admitting to being a guy who likes Harry Potter?

Yes

All the tumblrinas are back because of star wars

I've only ever met one other guy that was into HP that would not be described as "soi"; Black nerds are the best

>no Clifford for President
Cringed and blue pilled

Reminder Richard Harris was the superior Dumbledore

Dumbledore vs Voldemort was the best battle in the entire series, all the other were CoD with wands
