Seing "Snape" smile really warms my heart omg
Same
Yes !!
Time mark?
@@shahanaparveen5235 around 6:24 i think
Seeing snape's teeth out gave me anxiety lol I have never seen him smile before
It’s been 10 years and we still want to watch this!
actually it's been 10 years +
20 years
Duhh
10 going on 17
No like 17 years
In my humble opinion, Alfonso's take on the prisioner of azkaban was genius. This is by far my favorite HP movie, it's so well made! I love the photography, the sets, the ambience and design, the costumes and hair, the music, everything! This movie is a gem!
Me too my fav
In terms of direction, I definitely think it's the best movie. I wish Alfonso directed all of the HP movies.
Agreed
I second this and all the above!
Its the best book but Not the film
It's just incredible to see these adults being so delicate and passionate with the children, and surprisingly how witty the kids were, and on the ball. It truly was a masterpiece, and you can see why.
I find it so wholesome the way Emma interacts with all of the adults
She sometimes questioned what Alfonso said 😭
@@melisahuerta38 ikrr 😂
@@seph1109 wht
I know
In my eyes it looks like the director has an eye on emma watson.
His energy as a director is incredible. The kind of positivity and excitement that rubs off on the cast
Very true. Most great movies have directors like that. Come check out my Harry Potter Parodys by cade Kerr on KZhead
2021 and I still have sleepless nights wishing Alfonso would have directed the rest of the HP films. This film is an absolute masterpiece.
Same 😔
This would give me nightmares.
I’m watching this in 2024
The farting part was hilarious. I had tears in my eyes. Especially when Michael Gambon was just trying to finish saying his lines while pausing every time he heard farting noise and still going on saying his lines. Hilarious.
He was pushing the fart machine button.
i love how when Tom and Dan were practicing the great hall scene there was just nobody in there cuz it makes it all the more awkward lol
Time mark?
@@reaganmcgraw2021 2:22
Probably because they want to reduce time with all the extras. Shooting days are long. You want to limit time with extras to some few days. Always more logistic. They need to eat, visit the toilet etc. And the extras in these movies are children to large extent, so they cannot have too long days either.
I think they were practicing for the scene
No the extras weren't there because it was rehearsal. I'm an extra and sometimes we're there for rehearsals but even still they rehearse without us because they have lines to perfect before we get on set.
The best part about this video is Alan Rickman breaking character during the prank
This man has won 2 oscars, imagine if he had directed all the films, they would've been perfect
They would've been illogical
@@sameerhafeez7029 no, todas las películas hubieran tenido un buen movimiento y buenos planos
The first two I actually really liked the feeling of, and enjoyed them right off the bat. When I saw the third I instantly could tell there was something very different about it, I had to warm up to most of the films after, I learned years later about the director change. Of course this is just my personal opinion, some others may enjoy this director more of course. Still love the books and films either way
Alfonso curon portyed flim in a little more dark which many liked many not, well critics praised it but many criticized it because of its darker portyale
I felt it was too dark, and it was very different from the first films. I preferred Chris Columbus' directing as it was warmer.
5:24 snape’s smile is precious 🥺
the most underrated yet most beautiful looking film of the series.
I wouldnt say its underrated as I believe its the favourite one for the most of the fans
@@Textorix maybe he means commercialy underrated because it earned the least amount of money in cinemas
Definitely not underrated a lot of HP fans consider prisoner of Azkaban the best one of the series
@@jurajvivana5827 its still a lot of money
@@Textorix but that's the thing it is only popular with the fans not exactly the most popular one most people think about when they say harry potter movies (like the first one and last two that are more popular )
Alfonso: "You're going to see footprints leading to that rock." Emma: "Yeah. Why is that?" Alfonso: "Because he walked to that rock."
Emma questioned everything he did 😭
“what does that have to do with the scene?” 😭
“Do you think I should act squeamish?” “And that means..?” “Well I’m carrying dead ferrets on my shoulders” I swear Emma was so intelligent at a young age it’s hilarious but respectable at the same time.
@@chughes1761 i actually loved this moment because I think Alfonso probably didn't know what the word meant, so that's why he asks Emma what does it means. Even when you think you mastered a second language, as you interact with more people of different ages and backgrounds, you learn new things
She was sassy af oof lol
The atmosphere of this film is unlike any of the rest of the series. It is wicked, crooked, witchy, cheeky, folky, ancient... The way magic is supposed to feel.
Exactly, perfectly said!
Imagine being in control of and directing hundreds of actors and crew (a lot of which are children), all the while creating some of the masterpieces of this century. Props to the director - amazing job!
Who agrees this is the best harry potter movie?
Meee
No, I think CoS was the best
I do
I do
I do I truly do. I just started this series and I love it.
I love how fresh these comments are. Btw i’m also going to watch all the movies again now...
the video was published 3.2.2021 so it makes sense that all the comments are from the past 3 days.
I again watched the movies and completed it yesterday!
Sm I just finished watching them again
omg same
Same!
I'm always shocked at seeing how different the experience of making a movie is from watching the finished product. Without the special effects , music and being surrounded by a large crew it's amazing they are able to block everything out. I saw a behind the scenes from the first movie and I'm shocked they're just kids how on earth to they pull off being the leads in a feature movie? All the adults are with all the experience are the supporting cast.
I mean, not to be an ass but their acting wasn't particularly good or even acceptable in some parts, I remember watching Harry crying scene after he discovered Serius was his godfather and even though I was 6 years old, I could tell Daniel Radcliff doesn't know how to fake cry lol
@@antonioc.5778 I disagree. One of the things that impressed me the most about the first film was how good the kids were! I think Daniel was the best of them, though. Children are usually awful actors. Have you seen the Narnia films? They're painful to watch the kids are so bad.
God has it already been 17 years sense this movie came out, honestly this movie and the book and the most underrated out of the series. Also I can’t lie it makes me cry watching these movies and seeing the actors grow up through them and with us
cuaron always looks so excited and full of ideas! i loved how he let the kids put a great impact on their own characters
Its true mexican pround😂
Grande Cuarón deja una imagen diferente y real del mexicano promedio que seria talentoso y extrovertido saludos desde México ☺️❤️🇲🇽
Daniel Radcliffe is more of book Harry than actual movie Harry
Movie Harry isn't as naughty as book Harry...
Harry in the book is sassy in a good way
Except for the part in Half-Blood Prince when he’s on Liquid Luck - that was totally book Harry
agreed
except he's about half a foot shorter than book Harry
Fun fact the director asked the three to write an essay about there character’s and Emma wrote 10 pages Daniel wrote 1 page and Rupert write nothing
I always wonder if playing those characters at such a young age might not have influenced their own development as people. I mean, what you just said sounds like it did, a bit.
@@CrazyMazapanthey were supposed to write it in character-and the reason Rupert wrote nothing is because he thought that it would be a very Ron thing to do
What most people forget is that the director is actually doing the hardest work since is responsible for each characters acting. Cuarón did a fabulous job!
0:26 lmao Dan is so inpatient
@Gianna Paden no he wasn't bruh
Dan is like "Yea, yea, just shut up" :D
@@statboi3874 Pretty sure he was
@@larrystowing7385 no he wasn't.
@@statboi3874 Different perspectives ig 🤷♀️
My favourite film in the series, Alfonso did a wonderful job, I wish he and Christopher Columbus directed more of the films as they stayed more true to the books then the rest of the directors did.
My opinion Thanks
Same !! Yates wasnt as good as them
It's the screenwriters who "translate" book to script.
@@banshee1133 it's about the tone the directors set in the movie. David Yates made them too dark
Yates was really good however, they were just a bit better as they more stuck to the story line more!
9:42 percy hair is a legend
Damn watching this just makes me amazed with director Cuaròns input and direction… He has an incredible vision and a clear powerful way to put it across. This guy is talented skilled and confident.
Seeing the Dursley’s smiling and not bullying Harry warm my soul.
The movie was bad but in the books it was straight up child abuse
@@cicic5340 not feeding him for days
in which minute is that scene? i didn't saw it hahaga
@@emilialepez4926 0:57
Lockhart: I have the most charming smile! Snape: *Hold my page 394*
I'd love to somehow experience Alfonzo Cuaron's vision for the last few Harry Potters. I guarantee he makes a more compelling 7 pt1 and I can see a lot of scenes being much darker and his artistry would have been able to show much more in a less episodic story than Azkaban.
I completely adore Cuaron’s directions for Dumbledore- that’s the moment when you realise that the man had done his research and knows how the characters act and wanted to show it to us
12:24 - Kinda sounds like he's laughing. He definitely sounds too happy in any case.
i would be too tbh i mean look at what was happening lol
not really for me lol
I heard a bit of crying. But i totally see what you mean.
Nah if you look back at the scene that was supposed to be terrified.
But I would laugh sooooo much being there for the Ron scenes
No one: Me when my mom is giving me a lecture and repeating it all over again: 0:26
11:02 this is so cute lol. I love Emma.
What a quote, man! "When you have expectations, things don't work. When it comes from your heart or from your own energy, that's when it happens". I suppose he means magic. ❤️
Oh yeah
3:37 aww Emma didn’t want to go to school 😂so cute
I simp
who wants to be in school when you can work on a Harry Potter set. and get paid.
@@lionhead123 HAHAHAHA that’s right 😂
Dumbledore : "Let them swim in the deepest ocean, or fly over the highest cloud" Also Dumbledore : "He's awake"
Btw it's at 5:30
😂🤣
same mood as "That man's playing Galaga" XD
Best movie in the whole saga imo. Alfonso did such an amazing job.
There's one really noticeable part in Goblet of Fire where Gambon (Dumbledore) gets all angry and runs at Harry grabbing him by the scruff of the neck after his name comes out as a champion. It just felt totally out of character. Dumbledore is the kind of guy who is mysteriously calm even in the most dire situations, because he knows how powerful he is. For instance when Umbridge tries to have him sent to Azkaban.
I'd die happy if Emma and Alfonso worked together again... their working dynamic in HP was so sweet! Too bad Emma isn't acting as much anymore and Alfonso only wakes up once every 6 years to get another Oscar and then vanish from the face of the Earth
Lmao wakes up every six years 🤣🤣
He GoEs InTo HiBeRnAtIoN 😭🔫
Speaking of, why didn’t this film win Best Picture?
@@lin-nz4cz omg I’m dying 😭😭😭
I don’t mind me asking but would like you talking about
I can’t stop watching the “Pottah, POTTAH! Is it true you fainted? I mean you actually fainted?” scene I just love Tom so much 😂🥰

@@freyainnit3193 Sorry what should I search in google to find what he has done?
You know what, i've just found a new appreciation to the director after watching this, they work so hard behind the scenes to make sure everything's perfect
Alfonso Cuaron’s take on directing potter was absolute genius. Love that he got the three leading stars to do an essay about their characters. Shame this was the final Harry Potter film to be composed by John Williams. This and Order of the Phoenix are the best Harry Potter films in my opinion.
I love this there are barely any of behind the scenes with Alfonso in them. I just admire how he directs the actors, it's amazing
10:55 WHY DID THIS MAKE ME LAUGH Emma: What if I get squeamish? Director: Squeamish means? Emma: Well I'm carrying dead ferrets on my shoulder
IKR
Dramione Fans: Oh no. (They remember that Malfoy was once a ferret)
@@ukraineballaviation1483 Dramione is one big Nope.
not to be a pain but it was 10:48 not 10:55
@@thecatfather857 yup
The year when everyone looked beautiful
Especially Draco
@@ellajackson4272 omg yes
AHAHA RIGHT!? ESPECIALLY DRACO AND HARRY IN THE HOODIE ❤️😩
7:58 Rupert just standing there is so fucking funny to me
I cant get over this scene 2:24 Draco:Pottah! POTTAH😂😂😂
I had a heart attack with the 2nd Pottah
Hagrid saying “I’m a plumber really, it’s my first day” at 5:19 😂 And then seeing Dumbledore dance in between the kids at 5:27 😭😭
lol
He's like "I do my lil dancey dance"
@@ari.b0517 😂😂 honestly it puts a smile on my face every time I watch it
It's what real Dumbledore would have done
Rip hagrid
That's so grievous that great actors keep on leaving this world😔 RIP sir Michael Gambon🕊️
Alfonso looks like the kind of dude that would've been friends with Sirius and Remus
10:58 - Ah those days when selfies were taken by cameras, and not the phone!
The best Harry and Ron version. They should've put this hairstyle on daniel and Rupert in every series
YES
Seriously they look like their characters
yes, and they went from this (their best hair styles) to their ABSOLUTE WORSE in the film number 4... that was the most horrible in terms of how they all looked.
Alex Méndez puberty man...
They made Ron act like a lunatic in this film
12:39 the cutest scene
The Prisoner of Azkaban holds s special place in my heart. I remember being 14 and going with my best friend to the movies back in 2004.
'I'm a plumber really, this is my first day.' I am dying rn lmao
He was the Best Director in Harry Potter Series ... He should have continued
Ikr this film is my favourite among all 😭😭
No fucking way. I think this movie was terrible and i completely blame him for it.
@@kennymarket2428 how so?
@@shushshit4608 it’s rushed and felt watered down. They cut the parts of the book that gave it life. What’s so good about this story? It doesn’t explain anything and abandoned Oliver woods storyline. The first two movies had this magical feel to it and every movie after that felt watered down.
@@kennymarket2428 theres only so many things you can put into a movie without making it way too long. Oliver Wood isn’t a main character and so his ‘storyline’ would be a waste of time. I like how the magic feel was ‘watered down’ and the scenes were darkened as i think it reflected how things were getting more serious as they were getting older.
3:00 even behind the scenes this scene is so freaking creepy
6:24 *oh no* *oh no* *oh no no no no no*
I can’y catch it what did it say in the scent sorry for my english
@@ireneisdabest2605 it was the fart machine one
During the take i found ... what) can u tell me again the last sentence
@@ireneisdabest2605 they put a fart machine in Daniels sleeping bag and it was farting

When is this part????
@@idcidk 6:47 starts from there lol it’s hilarious, love him THANK ME LATER :)
1:00 A genuinely smiling aunt Petunia :)
Emma's reaction on 3:40 was just priceless😍
14:20 Is no one talking about how on point that clap is?! Like what are the odds of that?
👏
It is called editing. Probably edited to precisely amaze you the way it did. 😉
6:13 Snape Smiling 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and Harry too.
Harry look so good in the hood 😭✋ 8:24
Cuaron is so obviously invested in each scene it's amazing !!!!
10:18 Look at Emma and Tom ❤️
The Prisoner of Azkaban is one of my favorite ones! Absolutely brilliant film.
Truly my favorite movie in all series, it's not just about time travelling but the cinematic pov is ridiculously insane, the long shots, the geography of hogwarts, a darker theme than the first two films which suits the grim-awful-rainy-day feeling it reflects the narrative which has many more dark moments, it deals with dark creatures that represent depression and other scary creatures, talk of murder and it dives into darker, and deeper places for the characters, and where Harry's hair looked the way its supposed to, accurately, jk. Well, the downfall of this was they didn't give much the marauder's a back story though but overall, a very well made series, it makes the movie a stand on its own from all other series, and a cinematic masterpiece by Alfonso
12:44 Gary is so cute！
Alfonso Cuaron did such a great job on this movie, I'm disapointed that he didn't direct some of the others.
The Dumbledore in that movie is so on point. Exactly bizzare and warm as I imagined him to be
And dumb and oblivious
and then in the 4th... hes a lil' physco
@@hogwartsismyhome2367 yeah I hate the direction he was given in GOF. He was too aggressive.
@@KenoSNeal yeah. and then in the 6th he acts too young. LOL yk what i mean? i kinda think the first actor to play dumbledore was better
@@hogwartsismyhome2367 yeah totally. Although I do think Gambon shines in this film, HBP and DH pt. 2.
The way the actors and alfonso cuaron interact with each other is so nice and they seem to get on and understand each other really well, I wish he'd directed all the remaining movies as well
12:51 Idk why but Emma's reaction makes me laugh every time lmao
The laugh in 12:30 after cut was so adorable HAHA
it's 2024, but i'm still watching this
This was my favorite book and movie from the whole series, thank you for putting this whole thing together!
Rupert is such a good actor
0:26 OKAYYYYY
wow even Lupin's back is practical! I'm so glad Harry Potter was filmed back when practical effects were still considered, idk what the word is, but like artistic and prideful even if not ideal. there's just something about practical effects that looks more real in some unique ways.
Best harry potter movie for me. I like the visuals and camera work.
6:22 Daniel Radcliffe: They have put a fart machine, into my sleeping bag.
It’s so sad the movies endes 10 years ago😢
Dont be sad The cursed child movie us coming I am extremely happy
What? Really?
@@finjaxxx143 yes
Cool👍
@@finjaxxx143 it may be released until 2024 as per covid precautions . I am really happy
4:15 that was at Virginia Water in Surrey and I just so happened to be walking there with my dad that day when we just saw them filming! Robbie Coltrane who played Hagrid is seriously massive...
The fart machine prank was hilarious 🤣
Lmfao I love Gary Oldman as Sirius 😹
I read it as "gay oldman" and I thought you're talking abt Dumbledore-
@@romina2185 LOL
@@romina2185 that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever read.
7:24 - I was so damn sure Emma's laugh wasn't directed nicely in this movie, now I have proof. But jokes aside, Alfonso is still a great director 😊
My favorite part is at 10:46-ish when Emma asked about the ferrets “do you think I should be a bit squearmish?” Director doesn’t understand the word and ask “squearmish means?” Emma “well I mean I’m carrying dead ferrets on my shoulders “ 🤣🤣🤣
I still can't get over how they had Harry use magic to read his book at the Dursley's in the opening sequence, when they damn well know, that he'd be (threatened to be) kicked out of the school.
A film is not only for fans of the books. The director is portraying that Harry is no longer a child and that he's growing into his power. I agree that he left some things unexplained that must have been confusion for first time viewers, but he has to telegraph a whole lot of book in a short time. I think he did a fantastic job and made Hogwarts feel like a real high school
Rupert acts so perfectly 🥰
Wait a second, wtf hapened at 8:17? DID THEY JUST DO REAL MAGIC ON SET??!
Actually how?
@@jesalsharma5043 they have trap doors on the ground that they pull lower so it looks like someone’s stepping but it’s just them lowering a certain part of the floor
That detail always annoys me, it looked so fake. I think if they made Daniel go with the green cloak then Emma follows him would look more realistic/authentic. Apart from that, this movie is great. For me, it's the best in the series.
@@sondos7115 wouldn’t have worked
@@macy5618 the shoes would probably still be seen, rather than doing try and error spending much more time using green cloak itd be much efficient to create traps
Seeing Snape smirk at the fart machine clip 6:12, and Dumbledore try to continue to go on as if nothing has happened is hilarious. Trying not to laugh, but ever so slightly. 🤣🤣🤣
idk why I just can't stop watching Harry Potter every single vacation I have love it
idk why but these scenes are so awkward without special effects
It always is
aww that is so cute at 1:42 when Emma sees the frogs
Alfonso sacándose selfies en medio del rodaje con Emma y Daniel jaja lo amo ❤
6:07 the scene slowly dissolving is so beautiful 😂😂😂😂
At 2:28, acting doesn't seem as fun as I thought I'd be, if you had to do the scene over and over again, all day, kind of alone in a big empty hall.
Its all about being the best you could be! Music is the same way- practicing four notes over and over u til its absolutely perfect
Its rehearsal before they do the real thing
Acting can be fun, but i dont think its as fun as people think. Alot of the time its just filming the same scene over and over from different angles
try rehearsing, blocking, crew showing, camera rehearsal, take 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Then the other 12 shots you need to do for that scene as well. It's a cool, glacial process
acting is loads of fun! but its extremely hard work
Ngl this was THE movie that everyone from the cast was looking sooo good (my opinion)
