This may be an unpopular opinion, but I think Prisoner of Azkaban was dragged down by the Harry Potter brand. If you judge it on its own merits, it's one of the best films ever directed. However, because it's tied to a childish franchise, it will never be taken seriously by film buffs and critics. Your thoughts?

no
alone it would have been another sci fi movie for kid that would have been known only for the nostalgia, like bridge of terabithia or something like that

Its either first or second on the best H.P film. Either the first one is better or this one.

Is this the time travel one? If so, holy fuck OP, you have the worst taste imaginable. This was the worst one. The time travel was fucking dogshit and just like every HP movie, the resolution was a fucking asspull.

Goblet of Fire was the best one because of the interesting premise and the fact Harry doesn't beat the villain at the end through friendship. He escapes, and that's it.

Although Bridge of Terabithia fucking explodes azkaban quality wise*

Go rewatch it and actually study the cinematography closely. The directing was incredible.

Attached: maxresdefault.jpg (1280x720, 74K)

This scene isn't racist at all; it's commentary on racism. This scene, and the other scene, are director Alfonso Cuaron's way of challenging J.K. Rowling's use of the words "black magic" and "dark magic" to mean evil magics. Cuaron's casting of this particular actor, who is new to the series as of Prisoner of Azkaban, is very intentional. He's a Black actor who resembles the mammy archetype; he makes us recall the caricatures of Black people that were popular in the 1800s and early 1900s, when racism was more apparent in the U.S. Cuaron uses this actor to call attention to Rowling's use of the words "black" and "dark" to mean evil and bad, and to plant in viewers' minds the idea that this kind of language can be harmful to people of color. Do many viewers come to this conclusion? Sadly, no. They seem to think it's just a joke made in poor taste, which they chuckle at before dismissing. The only director of color to work on the Harry Potter movies didn't include the Black-commenting-on-black scenes to be funny, but to make a point. If these scenes make people uncomfortable, they should ask themselves why?

David Yates ruined this franchise.
1-4 are legit great films that still hold up.
5-8 are meh at best and just aren't as good. And since both Fantastic Beasts movies suck I blanme Yates.

He ruined what could have been a classic franchise. DH Part 1 is so fucking boring.

>one of the best films ever directed
how low are your standards? it's probably the best directed out of the franchise, alright, but to think that it is some kind of great achievement you must have seen very few movies

A car is for travelling places and he could work out what all its parts do and some cool spells to cast on it, but really, what is a rubber duck for?

ravenclaw apparently

This.

only if you are a simpleton

this
4th one was entertaining though

It's not even Cuaron's best film

that's not Deathly Hallows pt 1

definitely. his directing is abysmal. I happened to rewatch 5 a while ago and I could hardly stand to look at it.
same with fantastic beasts 2

t. just watched some youtube video about it

5 is probably the worst HP book though. Yates cut out most of the parts where Harry is acting like a little bitch and the movie is all the better for it... even if there are lots of stuff that are not planted and don´t make fucking sense.

Yates real crime was making a comedy out of book 6, which is probably the darkest of the books.

where the fuck is the meme
I came here for the meme

1 and 2 were the books coming alive filled with magic and wonder.
3 and 4 were great darker movies with increased stakes. The final 20 minutes of the 4th was the movies at their best.
5-8 are just emotionless and bland, with no emotion or anything.

The final battle in DH Part 2 was so boring and forgettable. Not sure why people like it.

ask the two faggots above that dehed the meme.
I liked 6 and 7.1 tho

This

wizardy sports movie with the most potent teen drama, apes Azkaban's visual style

Because Harry and Ron would just fly their car there

honestly only 1 and 2 hold up for me. they nail that charming and comfy feel that only the best fantasy/adventure movies for children have. columbus directing has its flaws, but the man knows how infuse some sense of wonder even in the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchise

How is this franchise still so popular when it didn't receive any new films for YEARS, and when we finally got fantastic beasts it sucked major ass?

it's kept alive through merchandise, same way Star Wars was popular through the '80s and '90s.

I've literally never seen a HP film lmao

could ask the same about star wars

not worth it. the first 3 at the very least can stand as their own self contained stories though, so you may want to check them out. there's undeniably a lot of charm to the world and characters

Do yourself a favor and watch them, zoomer. They still hold up very well.

The biggest fanfiction community out of any franchise ever

HP is zoomercore though, zoomers grew up watching it

>8 lightminutes away
>multiple size of the earth
probably because not even voldemort is that powerful

The first film came out in 2000, which means that kids born in the 80's or early 90's got to see it. Those are millennial years, not zoomer.

Zero year olds don't watch movies, Harry Potter is peak millennial

I will never forgive Rowling for not making Draco x Hermione a reality. It's one of those cases where fans know better than the author.

>If you judge it on its own merits, it's one of the best films ever directed

Low IQ

I saw all the films, the earlier ones especially as a kid, and I was born in 1999, so it's zoomer alright.

Millennials watched it in theaters, zoomers at home in the following years. It was a very pervasive franchsie.

But he doesn't have to go there physically, just "direct" the piece of his soul to be stored in the sun

It's deeper than your typical shipping trash, since there were multiple scenes suggesting they were developing a bond. Plus it would make sure from the perspective of the characters. Hermione had to end up with someone no matter what, making Ron that person was just dumbfounding.

he likely just happened to stumble into this video
youtube.com/watch?v=3hZ_ZyzCO24

When more than half the class ejaculated furiously at Hermione rather than fucking girls' behinds long and hard, Snape squeezed between two enormous, farty, fat, slightly damp, mouldy smelling black butts and Ron beated in Hermione's hair. "I'll be 17 in two-and-a-bit months time," said Ron, grumpily, "and then I'll be able to do it by magic". There was a pause while Harry continued to pound Hermione's bloody fudge, which he had done several times to Ron already. Ron ejaculated cum the size of a grapefruit. Dumbledore's thick cum flew out of the pulsating top and whipped through the air (skeet noise). "Faggots" said Snape. Professor Umbridge seemed to decide that she could ignore the fat cunt-warts no longer. She looked as if she might have a farting seizure. "Did you want to ask something about the chapter, dear?" she asked Hermione, as though she had only just noticed her. "Not about the chapter, no" said Hermione. "Well, we're jerking just now" said Professor Umbridge, showing her slightly damp, mouldy smelling cunt. Harry stared at it. Ron kept spurting cum in a pool of his own poo, as though hoping to pick up 10-year olds. "If you have other queries, we can deal with them at the end of jerking off". "I've got a query about sucking your bloody behind-warts" said Hermione. Professor Umbridge raised her right behind and was now shitting butt-explosion poo on her face. Harry touched sack-warts and Ron beated furiously in his fingers then closed them again with a jerk (skeet noises).

How does it make sense book wise? Asking as a person that didn't touch them.

Figures.

You didn't see them in their prime, zoom zoom. They were aimed at millennial kids.

>unpopular

It doesn't, Draco believed that Hermione was sub-human and that she and her parents should be murdered and frequently said so

Yeah, that post about explains it. But most of them were in the theaters when I was young, so I'd say the movies are zoomer, but the books themselves were aimed at millennials.

>there were multiple scenes suggesting they were developing a bond
what?

He developed as a character if you actually read the books, cretin.

This is much better than coffee to wake you up in the morning.

>Tom and Jerry is zoomer because kids still watch it

Tell me the function, purpose or appeal of a rubber duck then

No he didn't, he just chickened out when faced with the reality that he was a grunt expected to kill people rather than being in power and directing others to do it

Way to show you're a zoomer who doesn't read.

>projecting this hard
Just face it, there is literally nothing between Hermione and Draco except hatred on both sides, you've confused canon with fanon.

Hufflepuff. I'm neither brave, ambitious or smart, I'd be sorted before even putting the fucking hat on.

Maybe hiring Raimi to direct a scene wasn't such a great idea...

it was directed by the guy who directed roma, which i never saw but was supposed to be amazing. maybe OP has a point and it's actually kino?

I mean, you could just watch it rather than theorizing.

it's a competently directed angsty fantasy movie aimed at teens. that's it.

John Williams score for the first 2 (abd 3rd to a lesser extent) really helped bring the magic alive. The music in the rest was so generic and forgettable it's sad.

Draco became such an afterthought in the later movies.

good, fuck that little bitch

Slytherin obviously

What a fucking faggot you are, user. Holy shit.

I watched it for the first time like a week ago and it was surprisingly good until that time travel, at which point it became fucking stupid and I do not know if I wanna continue with this shitty franchise now

Well, it sure doesn't get better from here.

>The script matters most.
Ok NOW we're getting into retardation levels that shouldn't be possible.
>Goblet of Fire was the best one because of the interesting premise
Yes, everyone is interested in a "triwizard tournament" that doesn't involve any of the wizards directly facing off with each other, and instead must solve random tasks, like finding an exit to a maze which involved no magic at all.
On that note, why didn't Harry "accio firebolt" during the maze and fly straight to the centre? Better yet, why didn't he "accio firebolt" his way out of the dullest franchise in movie history?

>a-at least the books were good though

The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a finishing blow, the author wrote instead that the character "put all his weight into his sword"

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. Martin’s mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that he has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of A Song of Ice and Fire by the same Frank Herbert. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading ASOIAF at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Dune." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "A Song of Ice and Fire" you are, in fact, trained to read Dune.

Not fucking merchandise. I don't think I've seen more than a handful of HP merchandise shit in my life

It was kept alive by the fandom on the internet, unironically. The fanfiction community for that book series could fill hundreds of libraries, it is fucking insane how much there is. I remember reading that shit in 2007, some of it was even passable.

You couldn't go through a single thread in any forum on the internet without seeing someone reference Harry Potter or link their fanfiction in their Sig or some shit (it was even more common than those stupid personality quiz result images). There were forums upon forums and entire websites dedicated to even specific varieties of Harry Potter fanfiction. If you weren't alive and browsing the internet back then you literally don't understand how pervasive it was.

The Harry Potter setting and characters have probably been used creatively in more work than any other settings or characters in human history, im not even joking.

Prisoner of Azkaban is the best book and movie of the series and definitely deserves to stand on its own. Happy to see someone else understand that.

Well you need to rewatch movies 5-7. All the magic is gone, the visuals suddenly turn grey, characters start acting lifeless and stilted as if they're in a Lanthimos flick.

It's the same thing that happened to the Walking Dead after Gimple took over.

Unpopular? Perhaps. Correct? Yes. Any half decent movie would be better off if it were removed from
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. Noone wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though

"Deh!" 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.

The best to watch as a kid certainely, fun and scary at the same time, I made nightmares for weeks because of the opening scene with the snake.
Also, Clémence Poésy was such a cutie in that one, my first movie crush.

According to people close to me who are really into Harry Potter, I'm usually told I'd be a Ravenclaw with an argument for Slytherin.

Harry was a prissy bitch even in the movie. If it was as true to the book as people would hope, they'd all absolutely hate the main protagonist of the series by the end of the one film for being such a whiny emo faggot.

The entire series climaxed at the graveyard in Goblet. THAT was the tipping point of the series from quirky wonderment to having a real threat exist and having to grow up really fucking quick.

Why not turn mundane objects like a few random muggle world coins and have them recirculated around instead of picking out blatantly obvious magical artifacts and things that whiny teenagers could even figure out?

I can't remember a single scene from the 5, I don't think there's a more bland movie in the history of cinema, I was wondering what I just watched 30 minutes right after leaving the theater.
It's a miracle that Yates somewhat did great for the 7.1, given how much of a mess his other ones are.

Best order I’ve seen

isn't it cannon that you can just tell the hat what you want and it puts you there?

The best way to order them is to understand the groupings of the books/movies in the overall story arc.
>Phase 1: 1+2 = world building and character introduction
>Phase 2: 3+4 = exposition and important details of the overall tale
>Phase 3: 5+6 = Understanding the opposition and the stakes
>Phase 4: 7 = Lead-up to and including the final battle, plus resolution and prologue

You can persuade it. Harry pretty much begs to be put in Gryffindor even though the hat says he'd do great things in Slytherin

Nice opening.

It was popular at the time. Everyone at my school had long hair that year for some reason (including me)

they were all cool laxbros letting that lettuce grow

I can’t give you any citations as I can’t find them right now but basically the director thought that Rowling is setting up a Harry/Hermione pairing and even though some scenes were scrapped it’s still kinda evident in the movie.

Pic related, deleted scene from Dumbledore’s speech at the end with Hermione resting her head on Harry’s shoulder for no apparent reason.

Honestly it would be kino. Since the sun is literally the most influental thing in the entire fucking solar system, imagine the effects it would have under the horcrux. Vernon turned into a bitter hateful man living for years under it. imagine billions of people constantly affected by direct exposure to a horcrux stored in 99% of the solar system's mass

>However

That doesn’t change that some of them are objectively much better than others though

But the previous movies did that all the time when it wasn't in the book. Ron and Hermione didn't have the awkward hug the script called for in Chamber of Secrets, Hermione didn't grasp Ron's hand in fear when Harry was with buckbeak, nor that weird 3-way hug when Buckbeak was supposedly executed. Plus you're forgetting that Goblet of Fire is the book where Hermione kissed Harry, you dunce. So whatever the movie does is underplayed compared to the books.

nice headcanon

You chamber of secrets

Griffindoor and hufflepuff

agreed

This. He was already a dick in the literal first chapter of the first book without Harry the Horcrux around.

You are all plebs and half of the potter movies are masterpieces

Yates is a great director and this post is proof this board has basic bitch taste.

Fair enough. Just wanted to give an example. The 7th book is full of other cases of a horcrux's influence

You have shit taste just like most people on Yea Forums and you also are so dumb that you can't comprehend the time travel in HP or anything that isn't Back to the Future tier time traveling. Nothing they do actually changes the past.
Goblet of Fire is legit the most pleb friendly one

He's very bland. His Potter movies have a dull indie vibe to them. Cuaron or Mayall would've been preferable. People shit on Goblet of Fire but imo it still had an energy and character to it that the Yates films lacked, it's as if the magic was sucked out of them.

He isn't bland at all compared to the blocbusters that have come out since his potter entries. This board is bland.

He had nothing to do with the script writing of the latter books which were grimdark. 5 and 6 are 1000s times better than goblet of fire's movie and i like goblet of fire.

It actually is, it's fucking refreshing as can be.

Half Blood Prince is so underrated

Goblet of Fire is the most pleb friendly film of the bunch because ADHD tards can handle it and not slow burns that aren't directed like acid.

>His potter movies have a really nice, unseen in blockbusters type indie vibe to them (besides DH2)
FTFY

The last 30-40 min of OOTP has more emotion in it than most of the stuff in the franchise that came before, you fail.

The first one is the only one that matters

Scripts are okay, he cuts a lot though, Deathly Hallows Part 2 was really short for what it could've been. It's his visual style I'm not fond of, he really sucked the color and flare out of everything, Alfonso Cuaron handled dark just fine in his visuals, but Yates visuals by comparison are a lot flatter.

You meme and just meme like NPCs all over the internet
I love his visual style even though it's dark, it's literally the only visual style that was similar to Cuarons

Guess what Yates movies have the same color grader as Prisoner of Azkaban, the guy who did the Lord of the Rings trilogy. So stop talking shit about very good looking movies. Yes if you watch the bluray copies they are compressed to shit, try the 4ks. They impress, only the last film is majorly "black".
