The first two were kid-ish, i have to say. Then Alfonso Cuaron stepped in for No. 3, and the series got darker, more mysterious, and Hermione got prettier. My personal fav was Goblet of Fire, because there's so much action going on that it's essentially the most exciting movie in the series, before darkness descends in Phoenix.mellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017660567811088174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164805258628400279.post-63339740959605749582009-07-28T23:00:19.445+08:002009-07-28T23:00:19.445+08:00It made perfect sense to me. :) But it is the firs...It made perfect sense to me. :) But it <i>is</i> the first movie in the series that can't stand on its own - it depends a lot on knowledge of the previous films.TMBFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01033111132206047919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164805258628400279.post-81814078185738657882009-07-24T11:40:48.410+08:002009-07-24T11:40:48.410+08:00I flatly disagree with your ranking here. I'd ...I flatly disagree with your ranking here. I'd say Azkaban is the best as a film that's able to stand on its own apart from the books. It has tension, it has a plot that holds together, it introduces interesting characters and it holds surprises. I also have a fondness for the first one for the magical first look at Hogwarts and the whole series.<br /><br />Order of the Phoenix was the weakest for me, but that's partly explained by the fact that it's based on the longest book. It tries to cram in way too much and clearly makes no sense unless you'd already read the book.wankongyewhttp://calltoreason.orgnoreply@blogger.com
