I mean, this is one where you donât have to make up an example.The only Asian character in the books is named Cho Chang.
And the movie portrayal was character assassination implying she was the one who ratted out Dumbledoreâs Army.
Fuck I forgot about that. Those movies kinda suck ass past the first two.
Are you kidding? The first two films were shot in the most boring way possible, which is a bit odd considering the director Chris Columbus had previously made the two âHome Alonesâ and âMrs. Doubtfireâ. I still regret that I didnât know of VLCâs playback speed adjustment when I watched âHPâ.
Then they got proper good director Alfonso CuarĂłn, who shown how a fantasy film could actually look and feel. After which of course he wasnât hired again, and instead in one more iteration they found David Yates, who churned out the remaining four films like it was a factory job for him.
Nope, not kidding. Clearly we disagree. It seems Mr. CuarĂłnâs look for a good fantasy film was a washed-out blue.
That said, I still think PoA is still the best non-Columbus movie - I just enjoy the coziness of the first two. Itâs what Hogwarts felt like to me when reading the books, so I naturally like seeing that brought to screen.
yea same, the first two are whimsical which is completely in line with the vibe of the books theyâre based on. The third one is also very cool, and I think the rest are entirely forgettable
I call the first two âunoffical Christmas moviesâ
I mean, the themes of âPoAâ are somewhat more mature, so the noirish look was warranted. And from what I remember, it wasnât just a blue-and-orange palette, like in many modern films, but a pretty colorful one inside that noir feel.
CuarĂłn also doesnât do such palettes everywhere. âY tu mamĂĄ tambiĂ©nâ is very colorful, while the dystopian âChildren of Menâ is accordingly subdued. So it was a choice appropriate to the events in the film, just like the installments later in the series also get darker.
