I'm 81 years old and I love everything about Harry Potter. Especially the cast in the films. No matter what any remake will never ever have the absolute perfection that original cast had. From the children to Hagrid, to Professors McGonagle,Snape, Dumbledore, and all the rest, yes even Umbridge was perfect
Warner bros, please consider making an animated Harry Potter TV series for new generations - it'll save money for special effects, allow more room for important scenes from the books, and provide better storytelling!

Chris Columbus was the best pick for HP franchise. He's responsible for the picture we have in our heads thinking about magical world, all the characters. He did brilliant! So much passion, dedication and tolerance about his creation. I'm sure even after 50 years people will go back to this first 2 movies with excitement. I'm forever grateful for this magic
Yes for the first couple of movies, but maybe not for goblet of fire and onward. At that point the books get a very dark tone and Columbus I think was only used to kids films so ye I think the later directors were better for the dark tone. (Except for goblet of fire)
@@bunnyedits9541 agreed. It’s interesting you feel that way. Mike Newell came for Goblet and only stayed for one movie. It is rumoured he only wanted the job to say he directed HP, it didn’t come from a place of passion. I think David Yates was great for the final 4 movies
20:07 so interesting how the designer of Hogwarts himself considers the silhouette of the castle a failure. In my opinion, that shot in particular from the first film is one of the most iconic shots of a fictional castle in any movie.
Half the magic in this film came from John Williams’s music. He really set the atmosphere, from the title theme to Quidditch to fight themes, and made some of most memorable tracks in cinema history.
the main harry potter melody (and even the secondary ones) are just ingenius. Incredible works. That guy was right- you hear those first few notes and you know exactly where you are.
me too! For various reasons (mainly because of my mom) I've never really got into harry potter when I was a child, I've seen the first movie when I was 12, and read the first 4 books during 9th and 10th grade. What really made the movie for me was the set/prop design and the music, everything else comes secondary, really, those are the elements that made it truly magical. As for today, the Philosopher's stone is still my favourite, it's the one I like the best in terms of visuals, but also because I think it's the most cohesive, from a narrative point of view...maybe because it's more simple and there are relatively less characters, and the stakes are lower, I don't know..
A shout out to John Williams. He is an absolute genius when it comes to music, especially with this series. The music is so iconic and so memorable. When you hear it, it just takes you back to the world of Harry Potter.
Also the Star Wars music, and under appreciated, the beautiful score he wrote for Memoirs of a Geisha. That year he didn't write for HP, but wanted to do something else and with Yo Yo Ma. Williams and Howard Shore wrote the most stunning and intelligent music in the history of film. Genius!
Hopefully they won't recast new actors for the TV show; an animated series allows more resources for storytelling and wouldn't dishonor the original movie cast members 🎥🪄
You really have to give Chris Colombus, David Heyman and the crew and cast (as well as their parents obviously) for helping Daniel, Emma and Rupert grow up while filming and being in a bright spotlight. They are incredibly well adjusted, for any young adults but especially child stars.
the reason so many millennials come back to this video and this franchise again and again is because Harry Potter WAS OUR CHILDHOOD. It will never stop being special.
Harry Potter will always be magical for people that grew up with it. I think I watch the movies every year, at least once. It is just a part of life now, it makes me feel like I am going back in time. It is more than a movie, its magical and it is our childhood. Its amazing, cause not a lot of movies can be like this
@@zarius6363 I'm glad I'm not alone! I'm 25 and just got into it earlier this year. I'm so mad I didn't give it a chance sooner, that I wasn't interested as a kid.
My daughter is in her mid 30s and I'm just in my 60s.. we have all the films on DVD and at least once a year we have a weekend marathon and watch them all again 😊💚
That is so lovely. ❤ I grew up with these movies and was 11 when the first one came out. Year since, I've also got a tradition of watching them at least once a year.
Hard to believe it’s now been 22 years since this all began. In 2001 that was as far away as 1979. My favorite childhood memory is of seeing the first film in this small single screen theater in my hometown with my mom. I was 8 years old at the time and had never heard of Harry Potter up until that point and I immediately fell in love with it. I really wanted the books after that and when I had received the first one I remember reading it every night before bed. Harry Potter will always be a big part of my life, holds the most cherished and meaningful memories from my childhood.
The biggest miracle was casting the three kids who not only were perfect for the central characters but aged gracefully into mature role models for millions of fans and avoided the Hollywood scandals and pitfalls of other child actors.
i'm sorta glad dan's parents were so protective of him; i don't think anyone could have predicted how long/far his acting career would go. and it could be really overwhelming. (i also wonder, at times, if the adult Daniel Radcliffe ever flinches/turns around when someone shouts/says the name "Harry", haha.)
I cried several times while watching this documentary. How much work has been put into this saga, how many talented people who love their work. No AI, location shooting, animatronics - they did the best of what was available to them and that’s how magic was born. This is inspiring
I saw even today's kids talking and playing about Harry Potter. Now I'm 28 years old and after so many years it has still huge impact on the younger generations. I wonder what movies am I gonna show to my kids.... Movies like this, and Star Wars are deeply rooted in my heart.
Hard to believe it's already been 20 years since the first film was released in theaters! 😳 I'm only 27, but realizing just how long it's been REALLY makes me feel old... 😂
I don’t think people realise what an amazing job the directors and producers did. Movies from books are almost never, NEVER approved of by the general public. Countless book series with huge fandoms have tried to achieve what Harry Potter has, and they almost always fail, e.g. Divergent, Percy Jackson, Shadowhunters, etc.
Well, Twilight did amazing: The series actually made *more* money relative to its budget than the Harry Potter series did. Hunger Games also did quite well. And Divergent I don't really think was the movie's fault - it was simply that audiences were growing tired of that type of movie (and/or it was coming out at a similar time as the tail end of Hunger Games...)
I cant get over how cute Daniel was as kid. I didnt see it back then, i just thought huh kid with glasses but now i see how amazing job they did casting him, truly the most adorable little human
John Williams doesn’t overlay his work onto the image, he roots it deep into the story universe. The similarity and references, the grandeur Williams carries on from famous works of classical composers is one of my favorite aspects and proves that Williams isn’t just a creator but also a curator who reinvents what was loved in the past, bringing it into the present.
As a kid born in 92 I felt so close to the characters. We were growing up the same time. That sync back then was magical. I believe that's why it has a special place in my heart.
The confluence of the directing, the casting, the writing, the cinematography and the music is cinematic perfection. I absolutely love this series. I just want to do a special shout-out for John Williams because he's absolutely amazing.
Was a film student in college, agree with you Seven, everything was done right and loyalty to the books. Working with owls and other birds of prey is difficult, not surprised they had to duplicate the street with the houses on the sound stage.
They really nailed it with Daniel Emma and Rupert. They were absolutely amazing in their roles. The rest of the cast was absolutely brilliant too but incredibly, the set design was the most impressive. This series fails if the cinematography and set aren't magical in itself
Watching this 20 years after the first film came out is wild to me. I'm not sure if anyone really knew how huge this series would become. We grew up with them, they'll always be a part of our lives, and they really brought the magical world of harry potter to life. It's also quite sad to see how many actors have passed since then, rest in peace to them all. ❤️
Some people asking for more Harry Potter sequels... Im more like... can we get some prequels? Eventhough we know what would ultimately happen, I would love to see Harry's parents get sorted to their houses. Or the shenanigans Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs got themselves into. If done right, those could be some amazing movies.
Yes I agree. I’d love to see tom riddle and myrtle the chamber being opened for the first time. I’d love to see Harry’s parents and the weasleys go to school. The first wizarding war all the way up to Harry Potter and the philosophers stone.
The Harry Potter books and films changed my life! I've read the books and watched the movies countless times. It was wonderful, sharing all of it with my kids, who were the same age, growing up, as Daniel, Emma, and Rupert. Every time the next book was published, we were off to a midnight book party at Barnes and Noble. First in line to see each new movie. The whole experience has been and continues to be PURE MAGIC.
The fact we now refer to it as a seperate age/time. 2000 is 21 years ago now. It’s scary. Emma Watson is 30, Rupert has a child now, Alan rickman is dead. It’s really scary
@@davebob2884 yeah that’s real sad man I remember when Harry Potter hype was a thing and I wore earmuffs all day to protect me from spoilers from Prisioner of Azkaban
So much effort goes into these spectacles, for us it’s a 2hr video but for these guys it’s months of research, planning and shear effort. We appreciate you guys so much!
born in 1997. Grew up to these films... Getting to watch them age while I grew up alongside them was truly special.... I thank all you for the hard work that went into this art... Thank you for the experience!!!!!!!
Born in June 91 myself, so was literally the same age as Harry Potter as the films were released. Truly an amazing experience to grow up alongside and one that we will surely never see again.
I've only recently learnt about how much of an upheaval it was for these kids for years. Not being aloud to do anything with your hair, no sports. Imagine not being able to go skiing with your family on holidays? Not that I've ever been skiing anyway lol but still they gave up a lot. While most of us were out having fun these kids were working hard to bring Harry Potter to life and ill forever be grateful.
I reread all of the books and rewatch all of the movies once or twice each year. When the books were still being published, I would reread all of the previous books right before the new one would come out. I sure wasn't a kid when this all started but I have loved every bit of Harry Potter's world.
I’m 20, I grew up loving these films and throughout my siblings pregnancies my mum would read the books as they came out. I grew up to my mum reading these to me as a kid and then watching the movies with my siblings. I feel old seeing this now but at the same time I still have movie marathons and they make me happy.
Just had goosebumps...my whole childhood flashed before my eyes...and I'm still as fascinated as i could ever be. Even if this video was 12 hours..i would have watched it without skipping. A FAVOUR TO ASK..COULD I GET MY HOGWARTS LETTER...Waiting for it Still❤️
Sitting here with my daughter (2y/o who can't see the screen) and she heard the iconic obviously Harry Potter music she said "Harry Potter!!!!" Which I think is the cutest thing
The Harry Potter world is a limitless world. There is so many movies that H.P. fans will pay to see. Creation of Hogwarts, the first Order, I would love to see more about the first time the chamber of secrets was opened.
Oh chris. The first two movies you directed set the bar really high and you created a magical moment for us growing up. I remember watching harry potter @11 I have the same age as these actors and it was magical. You did well!
I always come back to watching the first 2 movies. The only other one I watch repeatedly is the 7the one. 1 and 2 established the magic we needed and I wish more of that happy and light feeling continued more in the movies

If it’s one thing I love to watch, whether it’s a television or a theatrical release, is the behind-the-scenes productions. I want to know how, when, where, who, and why it all happened! This is brilliant!
I was 23 when this came out I didn't feel it that much. I liked lord of the rings but as I got older I got to understand the movies. I am more a fan of it. I'm 43 now and I love each film. The last one when we understood what really happened and why with professor snape brought a tear to my eye every time I see it. Thanks for a great series. I'm going to watch it now. Awesome.
The fact that they were new, fresh, and slightly nervous made them perfect for their roles and probably added to the atmosphere 😊 casting was phenomenal 👌
@@jannedrumsit that's Rowling's fault...if Columbus knew how Rowling would change Ginny's character later he would've cast someone else. Bonnie Wright was perfect for the _Chamber of Secrets_ Ginny
@@AshrafAnam Personally, i think Bonnie was still the perfect Ginny even after the character's growth. Based on her interviews, I could imagine her pulling off the badass, sassy and smart Ginny.
Thank you Warner Bros. for uploading this. The documentaries on the Wizard's Collection are great and it's wonderfull that you're making them available to everyone.
My children were perfectly capable of reading these books, but it was my way of tucking them in at night- spending about 30 minutes to an hour reading. I did my best with all of the accents and voices, and have such fond memories of the three of us discovering the world of Harry Potter together! I love all things Potter as much as they do!
My daughter taped the first Harry Potter off tv for me. I didn’t think much of kids doing witchcraft, but I watched it. I absolutely loved it. I bought all the books as soon as they came out & bought all of the movies. I have Hedwig’s theme as the ringtone on my phone. When I make pies for holiday dinners i start late into the night when it’s peaceful & I watch Harry Potter movies. I read all the books in 80 days & read the last one in 4 days. I hardly slept & cried through most of it when so many of the characters died. It was very sad. I knew there would never be another movie, too. It was quite a few years ago when I read the books. I’m listening to them on audiobooks now. I love everything about Harry Potter & was amazed how true to the book the movies were. It was amazing. I love them all, but the first 2 are my favorites. You’re never too old for Harry Potter, i’m 73 years old & i’m a true fan. I also had a great uncle named Harry Potter. lol💕🐞⚡️🦉
The secret to Harry Potter is the number of skilled veteran actors they convinced to participate. Their the foundation of believability for the world filled with fantasy and kids.
People say the first two movies are kind of dull compared to the others. I disagree completely, they have such a timeless magical quality like home alone or Mrs Doubtfire, something deeply nostalgic that the other films don't have.
I agree. I loved the first movie, because that was the beginning. But my favorite was the second one, Chamber of Secrets. But I guess most people liked the later ones better. I was wondering. Am I the only one that likes the earlier ones better?
At 75 years old I waited just as the young kids did for each book Tolkien was my go-to when I needed calm JK Rawling was needed to awaken reading in today's youth Both these authors have such imagination Both series of films required people to make the book on site Both the series of films were just as the authors imagined their characters, places, and stories.
having interviews of the cast as both kids and adults is so lovely!

The confluence of the directing, the casting, the writing, the cinematography and the music is cinematic perfection. I absolutely love this series. I just want to do a special shout-out for John Williams because he's absolutely amazing.
Very True, I just hope they realize Harry and Hermonie should been together.
Was a film student in college, agree with you Seven, everything was done right and loyalty to the books. Working with owls and other birds of prey is difficult, not surprised they had to duplicate the street with the houses on the sound stage.
They really nailed it with Daniel Emma and Rupert. They were absolutely amazing in their roles. The rest of the cast was absolutely brilliant too but incredibly, the set design was the most impressive. This series fails if the cinematography and set aren't magical in itself
Honestly, Harry Potter was and still is to this day my Star Wars. Seeing stuff like this really helps grow my love and appreciation for these films.
I'm 30 now. Still watching Harry Potter series and it feels so amazing.
im 33 , i grow up with Harry Potter and i just love it after all this time …
Yes today I watched order of phonex and half blood prince
@@anirudh6386 where can I watch it?
Watching this 20 years after the first film came out is wild to me. I'm not sure if anyone really knew how huge this series would become. We grew up with them, they'll always be a part of our lives, and they really brought the magical world of harry potter to life.
It's also quite sad to see how many actors have passed since then, rest in peace to them all. ❤️
56:30
I don’t think I’ll ever stop getting goosebumps from that music.
I have a wind chime that my husband made thirty years ago and when the wind is just right, it plays the first few notes of the magical melody.
Knowing how Daniel got the part of Harry is insane - right place, right time. Some things are just meant to be!
My love for franchise hasn't changed, I was a little kid back to then, now a grown adult still enjoying this magical world
it's timeless
30 years old, still love it, am excited to share it with my children and grandchildren someday.
i really love richard harris as dumbeldore .he is exactly the same as described in books.
Absolutely …👍🏻 I did not like the way Michael Gambon portrayed him….
@@76faseluj ugh yes I didn't like Michael at all....
@@jackiekkaI think Michael Gambon was perfect for the later movies and Richard was perfect for the earlier
My 6 years old daughter just became a huge Harry Potter fan 🖤🖤 watching the magic unfold for the first time with wonder and a twinkle in her eyes..
Read her the books first!
where cann I watch it?
@@teleportingpotatoe 100%!
Some people asking for more Harry Potter sequels...
Im more like... can we get some prequels?
Eventhough we know what would ultimately happen, I would love to see Harry's parents get sorted to their houses.
Or the shenanigans Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs got themselves into.
If done right, those could be some amazing movies.
Rather see the Marauders than that Fantastic Beasts nonsense
Yes I agree. I’d love to see tom riddle and myrtle the chamber being opened for the first time. I’d love to see Harry’s parents and the weasleys go to school. The first wizarding war all the way up to Harry Potter and the philosophers stone.
I’d love to see a film about Dumbledore’s life
@@bellef7687 it's coming ;)
I’m 54 years old. I still watch these movies every year. Well done Daniel, Rupert, Emma.
The Harry Potter books and films changed my life! I've read the books and watched the movies countless times. It was wonderful, sharing all of it with my kids, who were the same age, growing up, as Daniel, Emma, and Rupert. Every time the next book was published, we were off to a midnight book party at Barnes and Noble. First in line to see each new movie. The whole experience has been and continues to be PURE MAGIC.
Current agree more! the hype around the releases was so fun!
These movies would not be the same if made in this day and age.
You would need a transgender Voldemort
@@Truth72500 oh and don’t forget Hermione would have to be a feminist fighting against toxic masculinity 😂😂
@@charless3484 lol true
The fact we now refer to it as a seperate age/time. 2000 is 21 years ago now. It’s scary. Emma Watson is 30, Rupert has a child now, Alan rickman is dead. It’s really scary
@@davebob2884 yeah that’s real sad man I remember when Harry Potter hype was a thing and I wore earmuffs all day to protect me from spoilers from Prisioner of Azkaban
So much effort goes into these spectacles, for us it’s a 2hr video but for these guys it’s months of research, planning and shear effort. We appreciate you guys so much!
I'm a potter-head and it still feels new to me, Harry Potter will never get old
This is so cute! The fact that some of the older characters finally took their roles because of their grandsons and granddaughters' insistence!
born in 1997. Grew up to these films... Getting to watch them age while I grew up alongside them was truly special.... I thank all you for the hard work that went into this art... Thank you for the experience!!!!!!!
Born in June 91 myself, so was literally the same age as Harry Potter as the films were released. Truly an amazing experience to grow up alongside and one that we will surely never see again.
I've only recently learnt about how much of an upheaval it was for these kids for years. Not being aloud to do anything with your hair, no sports. Imagine not being able to go skiing with your family on holidays? Not that I've ever been skiing anyway lol but still they gave up a lot. While most of us were out having fun these kids were working hard to bring Harry Potter to life and ill forever be grateful.
They earned it though.
42:46
Dan: “Is it lunch time”
Chris: ”It’s almost lunchtime”
Dan: “Daaaamm”
that should be a gif
I reread all of the books and rewatch all of the movies once or twice each year. When the books were still being published, I would reread all of the previous books right before the new one would come out. I sure wasn't a kid when this all started but I have loved every bit of Harry Potter's world.
I’m 20, I grew up loving these films and throughout my siblings pregnancies my mum would read the books as they came out. I grew up to my mum reading these to me as a kid and then watching the movies with my siblings. I feel old seeing this now but at the same time I still have movie marathons and they make me happy.
Just had goosebumps...my whole childhood flashed before my eyes...and I'm still as fascinated as i could ever be. Even if this video was 12 hours..i would have watched it without skipping.
A FAVOUR TO ASK..COULD I GET MY HOGWARTS LETTER...Waiting for it Still❤️
“It was…slightly nerve racking.”
“I was TERRIFIED.” 😂
i cried when finishing the books and i cried even harder when i finished the films, it will forever be the most iconic thing in my life
I wish I could award 50 million points to the person who chose these Cast!
Sitting here with my daughter (2y/o who can't see the screen) and she heard the iconic obviously Harry Potter music she said "Harry Potter!!!!" Which I think is the cutest thing
The Harry Potter world is a limitless world. There is so many movies that H.P. fans will pay to see. Creation of Hogwarts, the first Order, I would love to see more about the first time the chamber of secrets was opened.
LIMITLESSSSSSSSSSSSS I TELL YA
EXACTLY! As much as i love the actor, I wouldn’t mind having another harry potter movie related with different cast
Oh chris. The first two movies you directed set the bar really high and you created a magical moment for us growing up. I remember watching harry potter @11 I have the same age as these actors and it was magical. You did well!
I always come back to watching the first 2 movies. The only other one I watch repeatedly is the 7the one. 1 and 2 established the magic we needed and I wish more of that happy and light feeling continued more in the movies

1-2=magical
The rest=comically awful
24:11 I love how Ruperts command is always dont smile lol
Much respect to the composer. The music connects to the film so wonderfully
John Williams a certified LEGEND
I love how Emma at 42:40 says "No acting required" and then immediately cut to the director trying to control a mob of twenty 11 year olds
If it’s one thing I love to watch, whether it’s a television or a theatrical release, is the behind-the-scenes productions. I want to know how, when, where, who, and why it all happened! This is brilliant!
The more I think about it the more convinced I am HP is our generation's Star Wars. Let's keep the stories going!!
A marauders series would be awesome
Be 31 years old in a few days and I still watch these movies to this day they are among some of my favorite movies
I was 23 when this came out I didn't feel it that much. I liked lord of the rings but as I got older I got to understand the movies. I am more a fan of it. I'm 43 now and I love each film. The last one when we understood what really happened and why with professor snape brought a tear to my eye every time I see it. Thanks for a great series. I'm going to watch it now. Awesome.
The fact that they were new, fresh, and slightly nervous made them perfect for their roles and probably added to the atmosphere 😊 casting was phenomenal 👌
58:51 Dan and Emma all dressed up and then theres just Rupert 😂😂😂
Ud j gduh
Can't imagine one single role in this movie that can be replaced.. everyone just fits perfectly... Well Dumbledore did change but whatever
that's so true. unfortunately, some characters were underutilized or were poorly written.. big example is Ginny.
@@jannedrumsit that's Rowling's fault...if Columbus knew how Rowling would change Ginny's character later he would've cast someone else. Bonnie Wright was perfect for the _Chamber of Secrets_ Ginny
@@AshrafAnam Personally, i think Bonnie was still the perfect Ginny even after the character's growth. Based on her interviews, I could imagine her pulling off the badass, sassy and smart Ginny.
@@jannedrumsit idk...I think Bonnie's too stoic for that. But yes I blame Yates. David Yates should've never directed a Harry Potter movie.
@@AshrafAnam I know, I wish Alfonso Cuaron continued with the rest of the films.
Thank you Warner Bros. for uploading this. The documentaries on the Wizard's Collection are great and it's wonderfull that you're making them available to everyone.
2024 present!
Even just watching this can fill me with a sense of wonder and magic. Harry Potter is a timeless franchise I'm so happy to be alive to enjoy.
Young Dan, Rupert & Emma are too pure!
They are so well spoken tbh. They're like 12 lol 😅
21 years later, and HP1 is now a classic! It’s just a well done, awesome, awesome movie! Even the CGI holds up!
The harry potter movies are the only ones which i will never stop watching. I will always go back and watch them again
My children were perfectly capable of reading these books, but it was my way of tucking them in at night- spending about 30 minutes to an hour reading. I did my best with all of the accents and voices, and have such fond memories of the three of us discovering the world of Harry Potter together! I love all things Potter as much as they do!
Sounds like a wonderful memory to look back at, must be special seeing the films together with your children now when they’re older :)
epic
thank you for this experience. I was only 4 when Harry potter came out. 24 now.. thank you for all of the hard work that went into this masterpiece.
My face is literally glowing, of the happiness, after watching this.
the fact that they had to keep telling rupert to stop smiling lol i love it
My daughter taped the first Harry Potter off tv for me. I didn’t think much of kids doing witchcraft, but I watched it. I absolutely loved it. I bought all the books as soon as they came out & bought all of the movies. I have Hedwig’s theme as the ringtone on my phone. When I make pies for holiday dinners i start late into the night when it’s peaceful & I watch Harry Potter movies. I read all the books in 80 days & read the last one in 4 days. I hardly slept & cried through most of it when so many of the characters died. It was very sad. I knew there would never be another movie, too. It was quite a few years ago when I read the books. I’m listening to them on audiobooks now. I love everything about Harry Potter & was amazed how true to the book the movies were. It was amazing. I love them all, but the first 2 are my favorites. You’re never too old for Harry Potter, i’m 73 years old & i’m a true fan. I also had a great uncle named Harry Potter. lol💕🐞⚡️🦉
Aw so sweet
The first two are my favorites, too!
The secret to Harry Potter is the number of skilled veteran actors they convinced to participate. Their the foundation of believability for the world filled with fantasy and kids.
From the music to the casting to the sets, this series is and always will be iconic. I love all of the stories. It is amazing!!!
21:00: "they couldn't be any greener!!!"
21:10: *Emma proves him wrong with professionalism*
British children are so polite its almost insufferably cute...
Most of them are horrific
People say the first two movies are kind of dull compared to the others. I disagree completely, they have such a timeless magical quality like home alone or Mrs Doubtfire, something deeply nostalgic that the other films don't have.
Who says that?
No true HP fan would say that. Who can forget the first sight of the magical world?
They're not dull at all they had the perfect mixture of magic and darkness. Some of the effects haven't aged well but all in all they're solid films
I agree. I loved the first movie, because that was the beginning. But my favorite was the second one, Chamber of Secrets. But I guess most people liked the later ones better. I was wondering. Am I the only one that likes the earlier ones better?
At 75 years old I waited just as the young kids did for each book
Tolkien was my go-to when I needed calm
JK Rawling was needed to awaken reading in today's youth
Both these authors have such imagination
Both series of films required people to make the book on site
Both the series of films were just as the authors imagined their characters, places, and stories.
I got into Harry Potter when I was like 22 years old I’m 26 now and I’m obsessed. I watch this almost every other day in the mornings.
