I still grit my teeth when I think of us getting stuck with Gambon as Dumbledore. Grrrrr! The only ways he qualified were - he's Irish so sounded like Richard Harris, and people in GB think he's a good actor. (I find him to be adequate so long as he's playing drunks and crooked/problematic businessmen... but NOT even close to our beloved and quirky Dumbley-dore.)


Precisely! After the second film, the direction completely lost the magic of the books. They became just movies!




And thank you Figgy for reminding me about the horrible casting :angry-banghead:
Again, one of the great things about the first film were the actors. Even when they differed from the books, their performance made them completely believable.

I have to agree ... there was so much magic in the first couple films.
they were the only ones that came remotely close to capturing the essence of the books.

and the music ... ahhhhh, that glorious music!
I have Hedwigs theme as my ringtone ... love it!

Agreed! John Williams' work is truly inspired.
Though let us not forget; The chess Game track. :bow-yellow:

I have the sound tracks for all the movies but nothing compares to the first two. Well except for the "double trouble" from pos. It's pretty cool.

Many sites have just that.
The trick might be in being able to include all the soundtracks, and having the ability to select between tracks.

I vote yes! :D
