I mean, this is one where you don’t 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 Dumbledore’s 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 ‘Home Alones’ and ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’. I still regret that I didn’t know of VLC’s playback speed adjustment when I watched ‘HP’.

Then they got proper good director Alfonso Cuarón, who shown how a fantasy film could actually look and feel. After which of course he wasn’t 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. Cuarón’s 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. It’s 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 they’re based on. The third one is also very cool, and I think the rest are entirely forgettable
