AHHH-HAHA!

it was a different time

Truly a profound and often misinterpreted ending shot, in which Radcliffe is seen trying to escape at high velocity, but to no avail, 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.

Do you think it's one person, or an entire cabal of shitposters?

What is really funny about this post, is that it implies the poster doen't know what a meme is in Sup Forums in 2017. Funny.

...

Many. I know because I'm one of them.

YEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA

What Ps2 game is this?

jej

I walked out of the theater at this scene. Fucking ridiculous.

what was his fucking problem

My fucking drink dribbled out of my mouth jesus

OOH AH AH AH AH

Makes sense all movies after it were utter shit

How did he get up so high? Did he get thrown out of a plane?

Was getting caught part of his plan?

Now make a CIA edit

>in which Radcliffe is seen trying to escape at high velocity, but to no avail, the dullest franchise
Best opening I've seen in a while, well done.

>which Radcliffe is seen trying to escape at high velocity, but to no avail, the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises.

t. a 80 years old reviewer in 2001, before the rest of the books were written.

There is some true to this, but he took a book for kids like way too seriously.

I never minded this ending shot
a bit awkward but it's from the best harry potter movie by a long shot

I laffed

You guys do realise that this was done to parallel the previous scenes with the dementors, right?

It looks corny but it's actually pretty clever and great.

>It looks corny but it's actually pretty clever and great.
Ah good, I'll just make sure not to look at the scene then next time then

are you retarded?

>tfw never watched a single HP movie, only parts of random movies
Should I watch them? If so in what order?

Fuck off

7>3>5>4>2>1>6
In this order bruh.

any particular reason? Im asking because I know star wars and other movies have a different viewing order for maximum effect

Watch the odd numbered movies first then watch the even numbers in reverse order
1>3>5>7>8>6>4>2

Look, I know the scene has a point and is meant to be a cathartic release from an ongoing visual theme of the movie, but it looks stupid and it's a hilarious way to end a movie.

HP is linear. Watch the dullest movie franchise in order.

Skip the first two, I think they are too kiddy, and then in chronological order.
