Potterbros. Find me a better scene in the entire movie franchise than this. You can't.

Done.

For me its Uncle Vernon falling out of the window trying to stop Harry from entering Ron's car

>>214299201
i stopped watching after this

>>214299399
I had to walk out too

Every single Bem scene is still debated til this day

>>214298623 (OP)
can you link this scene? I havent seen the first 3 potter movies since I was 6 years old and my parents forced me to watch this girly slop.

>>214298623 (OP)
>entire scene happens because of a simple misunderstanding and double speak

That scene is cool on it's face but it's basically a 20 minutes exposition dump, and has 0 stakes as there's no imminent danger 15 seconds after Sirius doesn't kill anyone.
The longer the scene goes the less imminent stakes/danger it has
I like the Aragog scene a lot more, it's also exposition dump, but conversely it gets more and more dangerous the longer it gets

>entire goblet of fire is also a simple misunderstanding of names

>>214299927
>it's basically a 20 minutes exposition dump
It doesn't even do a good job of that, it doesn't explain anything about the Marauder's past, how Sirius got out of Azkaban and recognized Peter, etc. PoA was the first Potter movie to be incoherent unless you've read the book.

So was Peter the Weaslys rat for decades? Thats some crazy dedication.

>>214299956
I give a lot of leeway to the HP franchise since its a silly kids book series but Goblet of Fire is genuinely nonsense start to finish. Rowling had to be on Stephen King level of drugs when writing that shit.

>>214300015
I hate how easy to remedy miscommunication determines how the conclusion and aftermath of the book play out, but the rat bit was unironically great. It's 100% on character with what we later learn about the character to prefer disguising himself and living as a rat out of sheer spineless fear and self-preservation.

>>214300015
He was scared because Voldemort’s followers were going to come after him for providing the information that led Voldemort to the Potters—an act that ultimately caused Voldemort’s downfall

>>214300071
Brown people aren't real anon. They can't hurt you and plow your mom every night until her farts smell of curry.

Crazy how they got almost the entire cream of the crop of British actors into these movies.

>>214300015
they easily could've explained this by just saying that peter killed scabbers and replaced him that year and nobody noticed except for sirius and the map
makes more sense than fred and george never harassing ron about the peter he sleeps beside every night for 2 years

>>214300799
Anon they respected his privacy.

>>214299990
Well, if you want to play the incoherent game, Harry felt no scar pain, and there was no hint of his spider sense, and definitely no scream, no burning hands, and no nothing when he shook Quirell's hand when they met on The Leaky Cauldron for the first time

I like the scene where Ginny gets BLACKED

>>214298623 (OP)
you think he saw ron dick living as his pet rat?

>>214302332
>ron, your filthy rat keeps crawling into my blouse!!

>>214298623 (OP)
Why did Snape running into the room look so goofy?

>>214298623 (OP)
Nah even as a kid I thought the scene was retarded.
>in walks Harry/Hermione
>then Lupin same door, was basically 1 minute behind them
>Snape does the same thing
It's like a sitcom. Otherwise the scene is fine I guess. I never liked PoA's pace and plot, feels like a filler episode despite Sirius being one of the better characters at this point.

>>214302992
Also it's an insane plothole that Snape's experiences here have absolutely no impact on him in future movies. It's like he completely forgot Harry attacked him and ran off with an escaped convict. The conflict between him and Sirius makes no sense if you consider how his character is written by the end of the series.

>>214301408
Haven't watched it in years but I was right when I went to double-check.
>No scar pain
Was only when he was looking at the back of Quirrell's head
>No nothing when he shook hands
They didn't shake hands, Harry offered his hand and you can see Quirrell pull his away.

Rather than an incoherency, it's a bit of foreshadowing. Yet another score for Columbus' work as the best.

>>214298623 (OP)
Any scene without the children is good

Because he's wearing a fucking dress.

I admire the PoA book and movie because it's a lot like experiencing that revelation that adults have obscenely childish conflicts for the first time. The older generation are not more mature, or more restrained, or even particularly wiser, and they left you with the world that you'll have to live in.
I just wish to fucking hell the book didn't have... ellipses... in every... fucking... action scene...

The Half blood prince movie is shit.
However. It does contain my fav scene

Did you miss the scene where Ron cries as he watches Krum clap Hermonie's cheeks in the Gryffondor common?

>>214298623 (OP)
Nothing happened in this scene.
>>214299927
This anon gets it.

>>214302992
Yea the scene is far from perfect. It only seems good because it is elevated by serious actors. Its similar to the way that Ed Harris and Anthony Hopkins elevated really cliche shit dialog in West World, by being good at their job and delivering it well.

>>214298623 (OP)
>actors lazily stand around and explain directly to the audience exactly what is going on because the director didn't know how to convey the information in a natural and organic way
Nah

>Find me a better scene in the entire movie franchise than this. You can't.
The best sequence in the entire franchise is the opening of Half Blood Prince with the journos in the ministry photographing Harry while Dumbledore takes him away, the cuts on the big flashes after the slowmo on the ring, and the smash cut to the title that isn't seen emerging out of the clouds, it's just there in full view right away. All while Dumbledore's Farewell plays. apex kino.

Dishonest filmmaking

>>214298623 (OP)
It's insane how this movie omits so much information.

Who are the marauders? I don't know.
How did Sirius escape from Azkaban? I don't know.
What happened to the time turner? I don't know.
Why did Harry think a stag was his father? I don't know.

>Sirius goes go Azkaban
>He escapes
>Somehow he finds his wand or noone took it away, his original personal unique wand, not any random wand
>Bellatrix goes to Azkaban
>Same deal, Goes in, goes out, has her original personal real unique wand vetted by goblins
>Voldemort comes back from the dead
>Somehow he also carries his wand from the afterlife, his original personal unique wand vetted by Harry's wand
This is the plothole I can't digest from the thousand plotholes

>>214305400
>movie omits lots of material from source book
is this the first book/movie you have encountered?

>>214305525
Not really. Sirius and Remus start acting out of character for the sake of misguiding the audience.

>>214305561
Jurassic Park is VERY different from the book it's based on but it doesn't make the overarching plot incoherent like many of the HP films do

>>214305544
I always assumed Srs stole some random's wand rather than have his own original back.
Somebody loyal to Voldemort probably looted his wand from the Potter's house, maybe Wormtail himself
Bellatrix's wand probably went to her sister Narcissa as wands seem to be semi family possessions (Neville kept using his fathers, Ron used Charlie's, etc.)

>>214303799
It is a pretty cool scene not gonna lie
>creates tension when there's fucking nothing
>that eco wide shot after the apparate, that has absolutely no place on being that detailed for a transition and can only be described as masterful director's vision

>>214305544
The movies kindof of overblow the unique wand situation. While they do have a personal connection, its more like how one has a "personal connection" to certain tools or a guitar. You can generally use anything but yours just "feels" right. The effects of not being able to control a wand has much more do with being a shitty wizard...aka Ron constantly having wand problems.

>>214305544
>go to this one shop once

You are missing the point

>>214305730
You are overlooking the niggers going to fucking prison

>>214305821
The WANDS didn't go to prison, they were probably confiscated. When Bellatrix got arrested they probably seized her wand and later released it to her next of kin

Harold bloom?
