Name a single flaw

How the fuck does the cgi from these movies still hold up today?

Dark, blue and slimy is "making cgi look passable" 101

“Deh!”

philosopher's stone is a stupid sounding name. Imagine seeing a movie called Harry Potter and the Cartographer's Latrine.

Deh-llest

>”I’m a what?”

>"Oi that's not your cake yer fat cunt!"

>You're a wizard, arry. You're going to Hogwarts to learn spells and shit.

>philosopher's stone is a stupid sounding name
t. American

Hermione's hymen doesn't break when she falls on the hentai tentacle plant.

studios dont even try anymore because they know their pay sheep will watch it anyway. VFX artists poured their souls into these movies.

>DURR IM A RETARD
No further explanation

made by a woman

There will NEVER be a movie location as well designed as Hogwarts

CGI today sucks faggot.

dear god noo pleae

>”I’d don’t want to do your fucking spells you basket case! Stick it up your fucking dick hole”

Chris Columbus stops being the director aftrr the second movie & Harry Potter loses the cozy aesthetic & feel. Also, all the kids, including the ones from Wizard families, all dress in trendy muddle clothing.

>Name a single flaw.

The Plot.

I'll never forgive that autistic spanish cunt for fucking up HP's aesthetic

HARRY, SHUT THE FUCK UP JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!
I’M SO TIRED OF YOU, ALL YOU DO IS WHINGE AND COMPLAIN! IT’S REALLY GETTING ON MY NERVES!

*after
*muggle

This. I can still watch & enjoy them, but Philosopher's Stone & Chamber of Secrets are my favorites because they were directed by Columbus. I know that HP is supposed to get darker by every installment, but that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice the coziness & colors.

>”Hagrid, yer pushin’ me over the fucking line!”

first 3 movies are childhood kino

>thread about the first film
>zoomer retards start talking about the books

it's shit

There was absolutely no thought put into the world when people like this exist.

Hermione ages.

The darkness argument is so dumb anyway because there continued this drab steampunk look were wizards don’t wear robes but muggle suits and all the colours are drab in the fantastic beasts movies. Harry Potter should be like pic related. Truly only the first few video games and two movies could actually capture the medieval magic of the books

Sorcerers are absolutely not philosophers. J.K. Rowling is an idiot for choosing that word, and whoever suggested the name change for the U.S. market saved her franchise.

Harry Potter never actually uses magic himself. What a fucking con

You get it.

reminds me of the gba games. Reminds me of better times
yeah, this art direction is how HP is supposed to be, imo.

at this point if you really think Harry Potter should look like this, just make a cartoon out of it and put a decisive "kids stuff" etiquette on it.

Do Americans really don't know about the concept of Philosopher's Stone?

Philosopher makes more sense because Flamel was like the wizard equivalent of a scientist (historically aka 'natural philosopher') who researched and developed the stone. The change was just for the sake of brainlets, like yourself

I think OP is a pedophile guys

The multi-film emasculation of Ron Weasley as a character.

Severus snake gave her a new std called hog warts. We could reverse it with a cumbatch potion.

this

harry never does much of anything. he doesnt study like hermione or even practice like cedric diggory supposedly does. he just drifts along and gets saved by plotarmor and asspulls. he had all that fucking gold and never bought himself a damned tutor or anything.

>hehe putting a word like philosopher makes me sound smart hehe

>he thinks philosopher is a smart word
American education on display

Rik Mayall was going to be cast as him at one point

The troll doesn't that much

>food descriptions are always full of fatty greasy meats, french fries, yorkshire pudding (which is like a dinner roll but with fat drippings and milk in it), mashed potatoes, other heavy food
is that typical british "cuisine" or would the kids all get fat? eat a fucking salad you fat little shits.
he probably raped the shit out of hermione, since she cared so much about her grades. bet that slut sucked snape's snape for an A.

no hogwarts gangbang scene

they used spells for losing weight duh

The first movie suffers from really odd delivery.

Everyone is doing pantomime delivery and the timings are off. It isn't just the rubbish child actors either.

>"excuse me could you tell me where platform 9 3/4 is?"
>*without even pausing for half a second* Platform 9 3/4, are you having a laugh? Honestly 9 3/4!!"

The lines are fine but delivered in such an unnatural way

>Also, all the kids, including the ones from Wizard families, all dress in trendy muddle clothing.
They've always dressed that way outside of school

I don't and neither did scholastic, however you do lmao

The cgi from the first two can look pretty dated, though I still love them and don't mind, but from 3 onwards definitely holds up insanely well and looks perfect.

It's biggest flaw is being a 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 r-right
"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 first two had an insane amount of practical effects, it's neat seeing the props at the studio tour

>both the gringotts vault door and the chamber of secrets door had mechanisms that worked as they appeared on screen

insane amounts of work for short shots

>always dres
Yeah but there were dressed like 80s/90s kids in the first two moves and then jumped straight to shitty 2000s era clothing from the third movie onwards.

made no sense for Ron to dress like a normal person given he's from an old wizard family and his dad has no clue about muggle fashion

Wizards being unaware of how muggles dress when half of them work in fucking London makes no sense.

so why were neville and molly fat?

>Hypersphere
>mfw I actually bought this book

I love b-roll footage like this. Are there any for the later films? Colombus seems like a cool director.
