Totem Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) The weakest imo is Order of the Phoenix1. Soundtrack, very generic and often annoying.2. Script, Goldenberg did a decent job but he really did butcher a few things, gave the film a disjointed feel.3. Sirius' death, yeh not emotional at all, weak Edited November 8, 2011 by Totem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I keep changing my list. Sometimes, OOTP is the weakest for me...other times it's COS, and occasionally HBP. It all depends on my mood. I'll go with HBP atm . It had incredible cinematography, without a doubt the best of the series, and some touching moments, but it focused WAY too much on romance, and at times I got bored. I disliked how much they cut from the ending, which was also very anti-climatic. The soundtrack was also among the weakest of the series, although, it did have some memorable tracks like the beautiful 'the friends'. A fantastic beginning, but a boring middle, and a solid ending, which could have been a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I thought OOTP was entertaining. It lacked substance at times, but it certainly didn't bore me like HBP sometimes did. Umbridge saw to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinocchio Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 OOTP was still way better than the mess that followed.And of course GOF was still better than the mess that followed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CramaG12 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 COS to me was the most boring film of the franchise. Pacing issues, way too long, and probably the worst film of the franchise in my opinion. OOTP get too much scrutiny. Sure, it had its flaws, but was at least an entertaining film, especially at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 GoF. Ridiculously choppy in too many parts, some of the acting was really bad, they butchered how some of the characters should act (Dumbledore shrieking DID YOU PUT YER NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIYA?!), and simplifying the maze. OoTP is way better than GoF. It had substance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cedarpoint1111 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Chamber of Secrets only because it's the most boring out of all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 My least favorite is either the first or the second. Though I have the same problems with both. They seem to be rushing through the events of the book with little emotional connection. Plus the acting from the children is ABSOLUTELY ATROCIOUS.

Heretic Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 There are some legendary lines in the first film though... For example ''I'm going to bed, before either one of you come up with another clever idea to get us killed, or worse, expelled'' 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I like the first one. Second one is my second least favorite though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 OOTP-Put me to sleep-Clunky-Sirius Black had the worst executed death scene in the whole series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I don't know why they had Bella just randomly show up and then cast the AK curse at him. It was way better in the book when the two dueled to the death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 GoF. Ridiculously choppy in too many parts, some of the acting was really bad, they butchered how some of the characters should act (Dumbledore shrieking DID YOU PUT YER NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIYA?!), and simplifying the maze.I remember being so annoyed when Michael Gambdon took over as Dumbledore and basically changed the character. It annoyed me even more when he admitted in an interview that he had never read the books. Ultimately he improved but the hostility of his portrayal in GOF is shocking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 My least favorite is Half Blood Prince.The teen angst ruined the movie for me, I get so annoyed with it I can't even sit through it anymore. I also hate how the film varies so wildly in tone. The story is extremely dark but the characters are living in a half comedy-half drama world, switching back and forth like it's nothing.

RichWS Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 My least favorite are SS and HBP. I think Phoenix is one of the best of the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
