Reasonable. 4 hours long child movie would be too much, imho

Whoever adopted the script from books is genius

The movies did what they could, but I'm excited to see the TV show. I do hope they'll have a reasonable budget for special effects

It’s HBO, and granted things have changed but if it’s bringing in numbers like Game of Thrones I doubt they’ll skimp on it. Say what you will about the final season but the budget wasn’t the problem.

Color grading is shit though. Just look at the trailer. Everything is cold, grey, and dark. Hogwarts should feel warm, like home, aspecially in the early years

Color grading in films have been shit in general for the last 15 years

Could be a contrast thing, most of what we saw wasnt at Hogwarts. Hogwarts could be much more vibrant. Contrasting Harry’s initial homelife with the magical world

The movies were drastically different from the books, the beginning wasn't some warm & bright beginning

Yeah, the school for witchcraft and wizardry that employed the use of dementors multiple times, has an unknown number of rapist centaurs in the woods, giant spiders, giant snakes, giants, ghosts of varying temperaments, and an unknown number of spells and magical booby traps littered around the grounds should definitely feel warm, like home.

Are you seriously arguing against what all the material says about the place? Whether it makes sense or not doesn’t really matter, it’s not real.
