SS-Where the Story Begins...
-
DH2: great acting and CGI. Good pacing too.
DH1: great acting, and very strong scenes.
HBP: good acting and atmosphere. And CGI.
-
OOTP:
- Introduces some of the best characters (Luna, Bellatrix, Umbridge)
- Breathtaking sets (Grimmauld Place, the Ministry, Room of Requirement)
- Spectacular battle sequences in the Hall of Prophecy and more importantly Dumbledore VS Voldemort
Deathly Hallows Part 1:
- The shift from Hogwarts to the wider world has allowed for some unreal locations/sets like The Forest of Dean, Godric's Hollow and Malfoy Manor and a revisitation to other awesome sets like the MOM (which has been souped up for DH1) and Grimmauld Place
- The Music score featuring some epic themes like Obliviate and Snape to Malfoy Manor
- The relationship between the leads Dan, Rupert and Emma
HBP:
- Awesome cinematography
- Atmospheric sets and locations like the Horcrux Cave, The Astronomy Tower and generally Hogwarts during Year 6
- The combination of humour and darkness that sets a brilliant tone for the start of the end..
-
Goblet of Fire - most entertaining of the films.
Half Blood Prince - cinematography, best looking film.
Deathly Hallows Part 2 - most emotional and exciting, the best film in the series.
-
Deathly Hallows Part 2
Order of the Phoenix
Prisoner of Azkaban
Sorry I don't feel up to explaining right now lol -
DH2 - To put it in a way, everything in Irlkg's sig
"Deeply Satisfying"
"Eternally Iconic"
A film that will make you cry for about 40 minutes straight, a non stop tear jerker. Action scenes that will leave you speechless and a perfect ending to 10 years.
DH1 - The Trio's acting has not been better. It's a character driven film. An adventure!
POA - The perfect change in direction for the films! -
Deathly Hallows
Half-Blood Prince
Order Of The Phoenix
The holy trinity of Potter movies.

I consider Deathly Hallows one film, but we're doing the separate Parts for this, so if you could please pick one (or both by replacing another) and say so. Thanks :)

DH2 :

-A great soudtrack.
-The storyline perfectly adapted for the movie.
HBP :
-Beautiful cinematography.
-Some of the best sets in the saga (cavern, few changes in Hogwarts, Astronomy Tower...)
-Quidditch ! With great CGI.
-Very emotional and epic soundtrack (journey to the cave, intro, In Noctem...)"Where it all started... "
"It all ends here... " -

DH1:
-The character moments

-The character moments
-The outside of Hogwarts life with the trio and their struggles
-The character moments
DH2:
*See Below*

Prisoner of Azkaban
Half-Blood Prince
Deathly Hallows Part 2
:D
Memory is a way of holding on to the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose -
Order of the Phoenix.The only HP where Hermione doesn't steals lines to Ron, Luna, Neville and Ginny becomes in the silver trio and not just a bunch of random characters. And the first HP with emotion in all of it. It would be a masterpiece if WB didn't butchered the original three hours cut of it.
Then, DH 1 and 2, if they count as two separated film. They're the most detailed HP films, the best acting, soundtrack, special effects and directing by Yates.Post edited by yonythemoony at 2011-11-20 17:09:17

POA: great directing, beautiful score, breathtaking cinematography, brought a new feel/atmosphere to the franchise
DH1: memorable and beautiful montages, great character development/drama, the film focused mainly on the trio and the actors pulled off amazingly
DH2: jaw dropping visuals and sets, good action sequences that enhanced the story, strong acting, amazing score, a truly emotional and satisfying conclusion.

really stafford, did it take so long to make such a failing comment. You get my point perfectly well ;)Lord Stafford said:

Prisoner of Azkaban: Superbly handled story. Amazing soundtrack. Granted Harry Potter a lot of critical credit; gained the series more seriousness.
Deathly Hallows: Part One: Perfection! Very similar to book! Superb acting, great direction, and a peaceful score.
Deathly Hallows: Part Two: A mix of everything good! Magic, action, emotion, etc. An impeccable finale.Post edited by XDMorsmordreXD at 2011-11-20 17:21:26

Prisoner of Azkaban is vastly underrated here. It's ok, it's the only Harry Potter film with accolades anyway.

As long as the so called 'holy trinity' of the Potter films is around, i think you'll find that to always be the case. Unfortunate, as it may be.XDMorsmordreXD said:Prisoner of Azkaban is vastly underrated here. It's ok, it's the only Harry Potter film with accolades anyway.
