      In America a Philosopher isn't someone who practices magic, it's a deep thinker who considers world views. When a word has multiple uses the common use in one place is not necessarily the same in the other. The name of all of the book were changed depending on the country yet people are always obsessed with the American title. Or simply because the word Philosopher has a different meaning in the US. Because you know words means different things in different places. Maybe you don't know, maybe self absorbed heads explode when they contemplate that everything isn't the same everywhere they don't live.

    I don't exactly mind the explaining in the first film. I actually like it. the first feels most magical to me. I don't mind it because its of coarse the one that introduces you to the wizarding world that is harry potter. it tells you and shows you of a huge portion of the magical things that lye in that world

    • @zachary5412
      @zachary5412 7 років тому +11

      also. the sorcerer's stone is actually mentioned early in the movie. it just isn't called the sorcerer's stone. if you don't recall Hagrid giving it to the goblin in the bank and mentioning it

    • @haydencox7703
      @haydencox7703 7 років тому +24

      Exactly what's so great about the first film is all the detail in the world. Watch the other Potter films and tell me if the amazing detail follows, it doesn't it starts to lack which is fine because we already know what's there at that point. The first movie is about Hogwarts itself and that's what I love about it it's a great trip in a new and exciting world that I long to be real.

      mustarastas88 no, not really. Since it was one book split into two movies. That would equate to a quarter of the book.
      And it's been a while since I read Deathly Hallows but I don't remember being bored by it at all. The movie, however is a different story. I would probably give that movie a C. I can't see how it justifies an A like op implied

      Either that, the first or the third movie. After that I thought it derailed way too much as far as the films go. Maybe I just grew up - but the books kept my interest far longer than the movies did. I didn't tire of the books until I actually got some sense for literature & realized JK Rowling is an absolutely awful author, which was about the time the last one came out.

    I loved the first two movies because of Dumbledore and how well him and Harry seem to respect each other, just like the books. When the original actor died, and he was replaced, it wasn't the same. I agree that pacing is a problem, but that's an issue in just about all 8 movies. Another problem is with the whole Ron and Hermione know it all stuff. That part is really sposed to start the tension between the two of them. They argue throughout the book series. The problem is, all that happened was that she was called a know it all. That's really the only reason she gets mad, but the book has more to that.

    • @SAndSPictures
      @SAndSPictures 7 років тому

      The original Dumbledore was still alive when the third and fourth movie were made, he just didn't want to be in them because of health issues. He died after the fourth movie was made.

  • @Dylan8888888888
    @Dylan8888888888 7 років тому +26

    Firstly, great review as always! I never really noticed the film dragging in the second act or the constant set ups for other films though! But I guess that's because it's a film I have watched my whole life and enjoyed. I have to agree that the score and the acting were great! You forgot to mention was Richard Harris as Dumbledore! I thought he was perfect, it's shame what happened to him. I hope you talk about him in the next film review as it is the last he appears in!
    Anyway, I have read a couple of comments saying that it's called the Philosopher's Stone or the Sorcerer's Stone. When J.K Rowling wrote the book she named it the Philosopher's Stoner! Her publishing company, Scholastic, asked her if it would be alright to name if Sorcerer's Stone in the US as they were worried that people in the US would not understand the title and not buy the book. Although J.K Rowling accepted this change, mainly because she was told it would sell better with this title, she has said on plenty of occasions that she regretted allowing them to make that change for the US!
    In summary, J.K Rowling who wrote the book named it Philosopher's Stone, however she allowed the name to be changed for the US to sell more. So essentially it is actually called Philosopher's Stone!
    Also I have read some comments saying that Sorcerer is better and makes more sense because the film is about magic and not philosophy. It's called the Philosopher's Stone, because the Stone is the Philosopher's Stone! That is what it's called, this isn't something J.K Rowling made up! The Philosopher's Stone is a legendary alchemical substance capable of many wonders! I mean it's not real, but that is what the stone is called. The title of the Book and film isn't referring to the magical world, but the Stone! There is no such thing as as Sorcerer's Stone, but there is a Philosopher's Stone to which the title has been named after!
    Just thought I would clear it up and put it out there!
    Great review as always though, can't wait for Chamber of Secrets!

His voice, his commanding presence and his long acting career leading up to the HP movies are proof enough. I will always love his Dumbledore more than anything in the first two movies.

  • @MythicSuns
    @MythicSuns 4 роки тому +5

    One of the interesting things I've found about Hagrid is that he's one of the few English characters I've seen in a big Hollywood movie that doesn't have an RP or London accent, but instead has a Westcountry accent (I think it's either Devonshire or Cornish). Hollywood always seems to be casting British actors who either have an RP or London accent, and maybe the occasional Scottish or Yorkshire accent (think Wallace & Gromit or Chicken Run) for some reason I've never really understood, my best guess is that the casting agents just work from London where those 2 accents are more prominent.
    Another bit of Hagrid trivia: the actor who plays him was also in Goldeneye playing Valentin Zukovsky.

  • @fatimagic1365
    @fatimagic1365 7 років тому +2

    I have such fond memories of seeing this movie in the theater when I was eight years old. this is my favorite Harry Potter movie if not for the mirror of erised scene alone and I think the actors who play Harry's parents are two at most underrated performers in the entire series they may not have a lot of dialogue but they bring the perfect amount of mystical warmth to every scene they're in. it has such emotional resonance when combined with Daniel Radcliffe's performance.

    Great review! I love all HP movies, but the first two are my favorites because they are the most faithful to the books in my opinion, my most loved HP book is the third but the third movie is my last favorite and it's a pity that they haven't included all the backstory of the Marauders and Dumbledore's family.

    This is probably my most nostalgic movie. I'm 18 now but at the time this movie came out I was 3 years old and about to start preschool. I remember being in preschool and running around pretending to a wizard along with my friends. Then I would come home and pop in the VHS tape of the Sorcerer's Stone as well as the Chamber of Secrets. I was obsessed with it. As I grew up I went to see every movie in theaters as they came out. I'm really happy that the series is making a comback. Kickass review Chris!

  • @EndOfSmallSanctuary97
    @EndOfSmallSanctuary97 7 років тому +4

    I actually like how the film meanders and takes its time explaining stuff, it's much more relaxed and laid back in terms of pacing than any of the other Harry Potter movies, and I like that. I prefer the world of Harry Potter to be fun and inviting and a world that I'd like to live in, and not being all doom and gloom like the later ones are.

  • @luiginastro8831
    @luiginastro8831 2 роки тому +3

    I'm currently rewatching the Harry Potter movies with a couple of my friends. It's been around two years since I last saw them, I think, so I wanted to revisit them and see how they hold up. This first one does, and it does it well. The pacing is not the best, since they adapted the source material very closely, and that is both a positive and a negative. Some things could've been cut. Having said this, it's still a great movie. The perfect introduction to the HP universe, with incredible production value and the budding relationship of the trio, which is the most important part of the whole series. Great stuff, you could say almost _magical_ *wink wink*
    God, these movies give me so much nostalgic feels. I grew up with both the books and the movies. It's unfortunate the state the franchise is in right now and Rowling being... well, you know. But I still feel very much attached to it. Can't wait to rewatch the others.

    The best thing, in my mind, about the first 2 movies was Dumbledore. I really, really loved Richard Harris' portrayal. Michael Gambon was good, but I think Richard Harris pulled it off a lot better. A true talent was lost when Mr. Harris passed away in 2002.
    Plus, the fact that the guy who once played King Arthur in Camelot played, essentially, Merlin is very amusing.

  • @getmario64
    @getmario64 7 років тому +4

    "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was a great fantasy film for over 15 years. It was my fourth top rankings of the best Harry Potter films. I remember this movie when I was in middle school and I went to see this movie in the big screen, and it was fantastic. A great magical adventure and capturing the adaptation from the J.K. Rowling's series and you have a great time to see these films for over 10 years. The young cast did a great job including Radcliffe, Watson, and Grint were great as memorable characters that they're becoming friends. These talented British actors were amazing including Alan Rickman was awesome and I rather see him as a dark tough wizard that every fan girl can be banged from his words. However, I think men are too obsessed with Emma Watson so I like her performance, but seriously? Stop thinking about Emma Watson. Hogwarts was great and such a nice castle that every magic student can go there and learning something with magic. Of course the story follows up with first novel and quite mythos that they're creating something that Harry Potter can follow than most films that failed to tell their story. Tell them in their faces against "The Twilight Saga" and yay, you're being too much yourself for making a pointless vampire love story, but for me, Harry Potter is a fun adventure and creating the world that I love to see. Overall, a great film and still remember these good old days that they make a better franchise before the Hollywood had too much idea.
