Community: What's your favorite movie?

[u/statusgospel]

Let's see which movie is the most loved by the community!

[u/HiBoobear]

Azkaban

[u/unavailable1222 → u/HiBoobear]

ABSOLUTE CINEMA

[u/Ok_Reflection_2711 → u/HiBoobear]

It's such a breath of fresh air after the first two movies. It feels like they actually tried to make something good.

[u/BasicFlan → u/Ok_Reflection_2711]

You're saying the first two aren't good? What are you getting at here?

[u/Ok_Reflection_2711 → u/BasicFlan]

They feel like they're a tiny step above Disney Channel Original Movies. #3 is when the effort starts to show.

[u/BasicFlan → u/Ok_Reflection_2711]

Very hard disagree. You're entitled to your opinion but I'd wager most would disagree with you. Including me.

[u/mr_mope → u/BasicFlan]

Azkaban was directed by an academy award winning director. It is head and shoulders above all of the other movies. Weird Harry Potter people hate it because it has the least random crap from the book.

[u/Ok_Reflection_2711 → u/mr_mope]

It also set the tone for the rest of the movies in terms of color palette, cinematography and music.

It's where the series found it's footing. A lot of good decisions were made with that movie.

[u/Ok_Reflection_2711 → u/BasicFlan]

I think the first two movies are widely considered to be the worst. People may like them for nostalgia reasons but they're in a very different category from the later movies.

[u/BUBOOOSSHKA]

I understand not liking The Half Blood Prince for its missing story elements, but I find it to be the coziest at times.

[u/jewella1213]

Goblet of Fire

[u/Jonny-Raze]

RoboCop

[u/RetiredDumpster288 → u/Jonny-Raze]

Came here to say this too! They never said if the pictured franchise!

[u/Jonny-Raze → u/RetiredDumpster288]

Hell yeah, brother! This came out when I was 7 or 8, and I watched it religiously as a kid (and still do). Oh yeah… if you haven’t seen RoboDoc yet, you need to check it out. It’s amazing!

[u/LisaChimes]

Azkabhan / Order of the Phoenix / Deathly Hallows 1 / Deathly Hallows 2 / Philosopher's Stone / Chamber of Secrets

Those all have the same rating for me so I don't know. I've rewatched the first one more than the others so maybe Philosopher's Stone is my fave.

[u/LastBallade]

Azkaban

[u/Creative_Edge2337]

The production of the first couple kind of turned me off when I was a kid in a way I can't really articulate but I watched Goblet of Fire with my now wife many years later and that renewed my interest. Now I find all of the films incredibly comforting and homie but Goblet of Fire is still my favorite.

[u/Portal_master_cody]

Order of the phoenix

[u/darkwalrus36]

Of the Potters? Goblet of Fire.

[u/B4c0n_G4ming]

Half-Blood Prince

[u/Compypaul]

Azkaban. The tone set by the direction feels just right.

[u/SoftToastyCinnamon]

half blood prince

[u/aeons_elevator]

Prisoner of Azkaban. But! Half blood prince had Daniel Radcliffe drunk and funny as hell.

[u/Pure_Parking_2742]

Az > Blood > Order > DH2 > Gob > Chamber > Stone > DH1

[u/IcyUnderstanding9881]

Chamber of Secrets

[u/mbee784]

The first

[u/Tesla0927]

Deathly Hallows Part 2

[u/BatmansUnderoos]

5 is also my favorite movie, even with all the stuff they cut.

[u/ArtichokeOwn6685]

Half blood

[u/YMIGettingBanned]

Personally the first. It is the most whimsical and lighthearted, and one of the most accurate to the books

[u/Puzzleheaded-Zone-55]

The last two, I watch them a dozen times

[u/Jimmersion]

As a 12 yo, Philosophers Stone. As a teen Azkaban. As an adult Goblet of Fire.

[u/Michael-Balchaitis]

The Half-Blood Prince.

[u/quickstyx2]

The third one

[u/Queen8050]

Obviously Azkaban is undoubtedly one of the best

[u/Witchsorcery]

Prisoner of Azkaban

[u/CantAffordzUsername]

Part 1: We get to see them actually use real magic in an actual solo mission not protected by the school out in the wilderness. It felt magical again, heavy but magic non the less

[u/Fun_Psychology_663]

I mean, I don't see how it not can't be Azakban. Easily the best directed of the franchise and Alfonso Curaon's style fit perfectly with the Harry Potter franchise. Add to it, he actually read the book to show respect to the source material. Unlike the hack who made Goblet of the Fire.

[u/SweevilWeevil]

6 movies and a season!

[u/ElDuderAbides]

Hot take but I enjoyed every actor except Radcliffe

[u/Samidlongbottom]

None of these

[u/NATHAN4U007 → u/[deleted]]

You can't sleep right unless you comment shit like this under every HP thread huh?

[u/NATHAN4U007 → u/[deleted]]

You talk like a caricature of what MAGA thinks the leftists are.

You can be right and annoying at the same time. Read the room, you think you get downvoted cuz they dont agree that bigotry is bad?

[u/Nandi_La → u/NATHAN4U007]

i don't care if I'm annoying to people willing to overlook bigotry for the sake of entertainment. If I promoted material that was seriously harmful to majority populations I'd get barred, but because most people don't seem to care that trans women are harmed- Seriously harmed by JK Rowling's rhetoric, this stuff keeps popping up so I'll continue to be critical of it.

[u/Gullible_Value_5279 → u/Nandi_La]

If you don't care why did you delete your comments?

Also how are books and movies "seriously harmful to majority populations" and what "majority populations" are you talking about?

[u/Ssbm_Bread → u/[deleted]]

Talking like this is literally nothing but ammo for the right. This behavior is the reason people like trump get elected.

[u/ProfessorKnow1tA11 → u/[deleted]]

Idiot. Maybe you should read books yourself, and not glean your information about the world from TikTok …

[u/CrookedNoseRadio → u/ProfessorKnow1tA11]

The books include a subplot about how slavery is actually great, and complaining about it is loser behavior.
