List the Harry Potter films in order of greatness!

[QUOTE="Blubadox"]

[QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"] I'm not saying it was perfect either but the 3rd one was the worst imo. jak275

No, Alfonso Curan directed the 3rd movie extremely well, because as a movie the time turner sequence would be confusing for the general audience but he captured Rowlings imagination and made it exactly like it was in the books, David Yates would have written a different story line...hes such a dope. Anyway, the dementors were cool, there was little or no music in that movie(that's how it should be), Alan Rickman and Gary Oldman delivered their master performance in the shrieking shack scene and they didn't abuse the visual effects when you compare it to HBP.

I've been reading HP since 98....but I know you haven't read the books at all, otherwise you wouldn't have placed HBP on the top. Tell you what list the stuff that was missing in the 3rd movie and I'll you what they did to HBP.

[QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"] The second one is the closest one to the books imo. Ragnarok1051

That's because it's only 200 pages.

[QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"] Its over 300. :|

Ragnarok1051

Yeah, there is some kind of weird rule in US that novels should have larger print. However as far as the audio version goes, I'd pick the Stephen Fry version (UK), his voice is very immersive, you can try Deathly Hallows audio book it sounds very visual.

1. Half Blood Prince
2. Goblet of Fire
3. Prisoner of Azkaban/Order of the Phoenix are tied.
4. Chamber of Secrets/Philosopher's Stone are tied.

It's funny how the least faithful movies are my favorites.

HBP was very dissappointing, I'm surprised by all the love I'm seeing for it here. How was it in any way excusable to cut out the final battle sequence and pretty much all of Voldermort's back story!?Memberino

Remember hard-core fans are not the majority: fans are, who have probably read the book a year or two ago and merely remember the basic plot.

I liked them all, but my list would look something like this:

1. Chamber of Secrets
2. The Half-Blood Prince
3. The Goblet of Fire
4. The Sorcerer's Stone
5. Prisoner of Azkaban
6. Order of the Pheonix

3, 1, 2, 6, 5, 4

Am I the only one that REALLY liked the 1st two? I think they followed the books a lot better than the later ones did.

1. Goblet of Fire

2. Order of the Phoenix

3. Half-Blood Prince

4. Chamber of Secrets

5. Prisoner of Azkaban

6. Sorcerer's Stone

I also predict that the Deathly Hallows will probably be the best film.

5 > 4 > 3 > 6 > 2 > 1

That is the order I think is both ranking them as best and my favourite. I can't wait for Part 7 though...

Best one in my opinion was Prisoner of Azcaban.

Worst so far was Half-blood Prince.

Everything in between is up in the air for me.

1. Half Blood Prince
2. Goblet of Fire
3. Prisoner of Azkaban/Order of the Phoenix are tied.
4. Chamber of Secrets/Philosopher's Stone are tied.

I don't get why everyone is so obsessed with making movies follow the books EXACTLY. If they follow exactly, what's the point? Personally I like when directors change it up a little...keeps things surprising.

1. Prisoner of Azkaban. Masterfully directed, especially the time-turner sequence. Only flaw would be Daniel Radcliffe's "performance" in the I'm-Going-to-Kill-Him! scene.

2. Half-Blood Prince. I loved the additional scene at the Burrow; very well shot and good intensity. I almost wish the movie would have ended at the first cut-to-black...would have been a true cliffhanger.

3. Order of the Phoenix. I dunno. Generally I just liked it.

4. Goblet of Fire. I remember there being some cheesiness or something that I didn't like. Haven't watched it in a while.

5. Chamber of Secrets. I really just don't like the first two very much anymore. But this one is more tolerable than...

6. Sorcerer's Stone. I don't really like Chris Columbus, between the first two and what he did to Rent...grr.
