>they will remake harry potter in your lifetime

You forgot the "shit" above 3 foolish

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series.......

fucking pleb tier opinion

All Patricians know Half Blood Prince is the true kino HP

How much is wb paying you, Sup Forums? and also how to get meme text like that

They won't remake Harry Potter, that'd be like remaking Star Wars. They will, however, figure out endless ways to make sequels and prequels and interquels, like with star wars

inb4 dullest franchise of all time pasta

As much as I'd like to attempt to, I can't prove you wrong with regard to one of the 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
"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.

I always thought it would have been a fun idea if a muggle(maybe Dudley, but he's a bit of a pussy, so maybe not) secretly followed Harry to Hogwarts.I guess I'm going to get told there is some kind of "magic" stopping muggles from seeing "the wizarding world" but it would have been a fresh concept.Ok, so Harry was basically seeing Hogwarts through muggle eyes when he first went there because he had no clue he was a wizard but still, should have happened.

No it wouldn't be like remaking Star Wars. The Harry Potter movies are based on books.

You can argue about the rest all you want, but 1 and 2 are by far the worst.

3 > 1 > 2

Rest is irrelevant.

>best movie with the 2 worst

Actual order:
8 > 6 > 7 > 5 > 3 > 1 > 2 > 4
Anything who thinks 4 is good is a faggot

>Mfw just finished reading Deathly Hallows

Holy fuck did no one give JK Rowling's work to an editor? I've spent like 15 hours reading a book that should have been half as long. The films were better.

Always thought 4 was paced way too fast.It's like they're skimming through the early scenes.

I've never actually seen Deathly Hallows or read it.I used to love the books as a kid, sort of lost interest after the Order of the Phoenix.I only read the Half Blood Prince because it was given to me as a present.

Should I marathon the series?Either the films or should I read the books again?

Truth.

Switch 1 and 2, I honestly agree with this 100%.

4 is, by a wide margin, the worst film.

You learn pretty quickly that Rowling's strength is in a fish out of water setting just throwing magic shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. It works best when Harry's attending school, you can have other people just doing magic shit and Harry gaping at it like a retard child, i.e., the core demographic. Once Rowling had to actually go out into the world for once we got that abortion. Worst thing to happen to trees since plastic.

Just read the Wikipedia pages. Even reading Sup Forums has more merit at this point.

Everything after 3 is utter shit, 7 and 8 are just the worst.
