The first 2 Harry Potter movies were the best imo.

[RaikuFA]

I've only seen 1 and 2 so technically I'd have to agree. Never saw 3-7 and too expensive to buy.

They have been playing them on the Freeform (Formally ABC Family) channel for years now, and they play extended version of the first two films with restored deleted scenes, some of which were rather crucial.

I cut the cord last year after a bunch of shows I liked were cancelled.

Though I think I saw them on Hulu. Or maybe Netflix.

Ok then, thanks for sharing your opinion. No way to really debate opinion, so I'm glad you enjoy them so much.

I don't know. While there were some important scenes, a bunch felt rather pointless to the story.

When the movies first came out I had read the books that were out and was really looking forward to seeing books I had read turned into big screen adaptions and I think the first one delivered just that, the second one I don't think was as good but was still good.

The problems started with the third movie and they just kept getting worse as the movies went on, I didn't even bother watching the last few movies when they came out and I only recently saw Deathly Hollows 2 last year when it just happened to be on TV. I feel like the later movies lost the feel of the books, they became far too serious and whilst the books do get darker as they go on its not as much, not as fast and not as blatant as in the movies.

Overall I just think that the tone of the later movies was just wrong, I mean compare these two images:

They don't even look like they are from the same series if it wasn't for the name.

Regarding the images you posted.

You have to give it to the Americans though, they made the better movie poster of Sorcerer's Stone/Philospher's Stone than the Brits:

Heck this images captures that magic better than the British one.

That's because Drew Struzan is a fantastic poster artist. I mean this is the guy who gave us the posters for Back to the Future, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Blade Runner, E.T., The Goonies, An American Tail, The Muppet Movie, Coming to America, First Blood, John Carpenter's The Thing, etc.

No wonder why I got Star Wars vibes of this poster. Especially the colors of the poster.
