So my girlfriend was rewatching these movies and I wondered what the verdict on was DDD. I've never rewatched the movies myself, so I'm going with my original ranking of:

1. GOF
2. HBP
3. DH1
4. POA
5. OOTP
6. COS
7. SS
8. DH2

The first one is the only one worth existing, because I can't blame 'em for trying. But omg what a failure, those movies...

love them all. haters gonna hate. its also, for young folks, a cool introduction to basically every relevant British actor of the last 40 years (except Sir Ian!).

POA is my favorite book and favorite movie. HBP is my second favorite book but the most disappointing movie imo.

Interesting. What did you find especially remarkable about DH1?

Prisoner of Azkaban because I'm competent at preferring less bad movies over more bad movies

i still don't quite understand the unique-to-DDD overhype of the first Deathly Hallows. i understand it had a much less blockbustery tone compared to the rest (and an isolated feeling that i suppose could make it a more personal experience for some), but that actually kind of made it seem out of place to me. the grandeur and world-encompassing stakes are sewn into the entire series, balanced with the isolation fairly well from POA through HBP. but then we get to DH1 and its pretty much all isolation, mainly out of necessity (cause they had very little going on outside the main three). honestly it just felt like a 2 1/2 hour prologue.

the last two had basically the same problem. they both lost that balance. DH1 was all isolation, DH2 was all "world is ending" stakes. idk idk.
