Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I. Again.

Since I've already covered my thoughts about this movie on here before, I'll keep this brief.

It's been extremely gratifying watching these films again. I wasn't a huge fan of the franchise previously, but watching them back to back I was able to appreciate more than the ever the care and skill that went into this franchise. The fact that over 7 movies and 10 years they were able to consistently improve with each entry is simply amazing. In fact, I think the Potter films are among the greatest film making achievements of all time. Unlike Lord of the Rings, which filmed all three movies at once, ( which itself was no small feat) Warner Bros. made one Potter movie at a time, simply hoping for the best by making the very best films they could.

I have no doubt Deathly Hallows, Part II will be an exciting and fitting end, but at the same time it's going to be hard knowing there won't be another Potter movie around the corner.
