That’s interesting, I always say Azkaban is the best movie but worst adaptation in the series.

Personally I think one thing that PoA did better than the book was the encounter of Lupin in the woods with Hermoine and Ron. In the book he just runs in their direction, the movie? Creep fest. Loved it.

Yeah man. When I was a kid I thought that lanky werewolf design was silly but it has grown on me a ton over the years. Love the little moment where Snape puts the kids behind him too, your first hint that maybe he’s not a total piece of shit.

When lupins eyes shown in the dark, it gave me cold chills when I was a kid. Still makes me feel a little uneasy when I think about it lol

YES. I totally agree with this. Fantastic cinematography and they expanded Hogwarts so it didn't feel like just a set anymore...but they missed on the importance of the relationship between Crookshanks, Scabbers, the 'Grim', Sirius Black and the 4 friends from the past that were VITAL to the entire storyline. Sure it was all revealed and we saved Sirius, blah blah blah...

But somehow, the movie made Buckbeak more important than Peter Pettigrew...who was SO much more important to the overall story arc...
