Favourite HP Movie Director?

[BlacLord™]

1) Christopher Columbus (Films 1-2)
2) Alfonso Cuaron (Film 3)
3) Mike Newell (Film 4)
4) David Yates (Films 5-8)


Just re-watched 3 and I have to say, I forgot how good it was. It was so exquisitely done that my interest never waned; something I felt with Yates' films. Scenes felt really palpable.


What about you?

Dunno about directors but,

3rd was good only as a movie but it missed out so much from the book, in fact other than 1 & 2, all other didn't do justice to the books...

My fav is Order of the Phoenix. Looking back, the rest was actually boring.

1, 2 and 4 are my fav movies. The rest are meh. The third one is probably okay, but since the third book is my favorite, I was disappointed big time by the amount of stuff they didn't show.

I like the fact the movies made the book interesting, but I hate they left out key details that would have made sense of the movie.

All the films from 3 onwards suffered from that. Even the first two cut chunks out. Directors don't handle script anyway - they just work with what they're given, and Cuaron directed like a master. It was beautiful beyond all other movies, and each scene was spot on in every way.


PoA was a masterpiece, speaking solely in terms of the movie.
