Why is this movie so comfy? Is it just nostalgia or something else?

Why is this movie so comfy? Is it just nostalgia or something else?

Also, power ranking:
1>3>2>5>6>7.2>7.1>4

It had nice warm colors, children walking around in those mantles and silly hats, sense of childlike wonder and awe.

The later movies they dress like they're in a modern boarding school and the colors are all dark and edgy

Three is literally the worst movie off yourself retard

He doesn't have a repressed fetish for Victorian era boarding school strappings because of his fucked up anglo country.

Something is missing.

"No!"

>give me the stone

>oi'll deck you roight in the gabber, mate!

Oh boy, have I waited for that fucking letter to come flying in when I was 10-11yo. Even though deep down I knew there's no chance of it happening ever. Feels really bad, man

are you ranking them by comfy? in that case it should be
1 > 6 > 7.1 > 3 > 2 > 4 > 5 > 7.2

not really, 1st one is 1st cuz of nostalgia, the rest is a mix-up of everything actually

thank you

>you will never spend a comfy christmas at hogwarts with your magic bros

ooooh, with that song silently sung by the ghosts. It makes me sad thet I won't relive watching those films for the first time ever. Or being in my early teens while we're at it

It captured childlike imagination perfectly.

3>7.1>6>5>2>1>4>7.2

This thread is up for almost 90 minutes now and no dullest shit on the horizon. Things are getting pretty scary

I grew up in a boarding school that had a Pomfrey-esque healing nun and houses and everything, a house for the cool kids and a house for the gay losers. But that's where the similarities ended and that's literally there was to boarding school: There are cool kids and there are losers. No magic.

I try to be objective about these movies, I generally don't like any of them since they're really not proper movies really. They're basically rushed to keep up with the books and the kids aging when honestly they should have waited until the books were all out to make sure they knew the entire story to make the movies consistent without holes like the mirror etc. All that said, the first two movies felt really magical, probably because I watched them as a kid.

Oh it's comfortable, all right. Comfortably one of the dullest franchises 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.

I agree, i think its really tough to accurately capture the feeling of a book while still making a decent movie in its own right, its an impressive balance but only really achieved in the first couple movies

What took you so long?

How did they sort the cool kids from the losers
