archersangelthis is an HBO max thing, that aired on TBS for some reason. i know HBO owns turner's stuff now, but i thought they would keep this on the pay site.
some thoughts & things of note;
--the sets look great.
-i'm still disappointed that chris columbus didn't direct all of them. but when they go through how the movies represent different stages of their lives from 11-18, it makes sense to have the different directors.
--there's was no explanation for the stupid hair styles of harry, ron & the twins in #4.
--jason isaacs didn't want to audition for the part of lucius malfoy because he was going to be captain hook & didn't want to be the bad guy in two children's things. (he was thinking of going for gilderoy lockhart) so he said his lines through gritted teeth & the producers/director loved it.
--at one point they thought he slipped in dumbledore's office, but he said; "i just kicked dobby down the stairs." and they put it in.
--when helena bonham carter got going as bellatrix lestrange he wanted to yell at her to shut up.
--rupert grint commenting to daniel radcliffe & emma watson on how long it's been since he's seen them; "i've had kidney stones. i've had a baby."
--david yates trying to justify the harry grabing lord v during their final fight, as well as the harry and hermione dance & me not buying it.
