Happy Birthday Harry Potter!

-
The 31st of July is many things to me. It is my friend's birthday. It is my uncle's birthday. And it is also Harry Potter's birthday. 

 Born on the 31st of July 1980, Harry James Potter is one of my favourite fictional characters. I love J.K Rowling's books. I love the movies. I love the rides at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando - well, most of them. 

 So to celebrate Harry's 39th birthday here is my ranking of the Wizarding World movies.

 10. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

 09. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald

 08. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

 07. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1

 06. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

 05. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

 04. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

03. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

 02. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

 01. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2
"You're a wizard, Harry!"
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is the ultimate climax of Harry's story. The movie has the best moments - the best battles, the best call-backs and the best emotional moments. It is the Avengers: Endgame of the Harry Potter franchise and I love it.

 I do plan to review the entire Wizarding World series before the end of the year.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

UK Release Date: 12 December 2018  Certification: PG  Director: Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman  Cast: Nicolas Cage, Kimiko Glenn, Jake Johnson, Zoe Kravitz, Shameik Moore, John Mulaney, Chris Pine, Liev Schreiber, Hailee Steinfeld  Rating:   94 % I'm also a huge fan of Spider-Man on the PS4. Review: One of the greatest strengths of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse is the animation. The style means the movie is the closest thing to a comic book. All the Spider people have different animation styles - Spider-Ham looks like something from Looney Tunes, Peni Parker looks like Anime, Spider-Noir is black and white and Miles looks like he was lifted straight out of a Marvel comic. The only thing I didn't like about the animation was the way  Kingpin was portrayed - he was very wide. I don't mind the animators sticking to his comic book appearance, but really, he didn't have to be that huge! There have been a ...

Isle of Dogs

UK Release Date: 30 March 2018 Certification: PG Director: Wes Anderson Cast: Bob Balaban, Bryan Cranston, Greta Gerwig, Jeff Goldblum, Scarlett Johansson, Harvey Keitel, Bill Murray, Edward Norton, Koyu Rankin, Liev Schreiber, Tilda Swinton Rating: 65% Toby Dogge enjoyed Isle of Dogs too. Review: For an animated movie Isle of Dogs boasts an incredible cast, with acting legends like Jeff Goldblum and Bill Murray, to up and coming stars like Koyu Rankin and Greta Gerwig.  In Isle of Dogs , Wes Anderson relies upon a stop-motion animation technique that he first used in Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) to create a story that is both sombre and heart-warming at the same time. The movie is about a Japanese boy called Atari, who’s parents pass away in an accident. He goes to live with his uncle who is the mayor of the fictional city, Megasaki. The mayor banishes all dogs to Trash Island and the remainder of the movie tells of Atari's daring rescue mission to save his dog,...
