Harry Potter Poster Collection:
Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone (2001)
1.Theatrical Info
The movie was in the cinemas on the 16th of November in 2001. As I have already told you this was based on the books with the same titles, but the whole book series was still in progress.
2.The Philosopher’s Profit
The movie made more than $950 million on a budget of just $125 million. I think the producers must have predicted its success because this big budget was not so normal in those days.
3.Almost An Animated Movie
The movie was almost another amazing creation of Stephen Spielberg, but without a real soul in it. There was a (kind of) fight between Terry Gilliam and Chris Columbus for directing the movie. But even before Terry was in the mind of Warner Bros., they approached Spielberg, but he wanted to make one single animated movie of all the Rowling’s books. FYI, Chris Columbus was the chosen one.
4. Only British Can We Be Wizard
Soon after Warner Bros. bought the rights of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter, Rowling convinced them that all the cast members of the film should be British only. Though there was not a very big reason behind it as she wanted British actors because the storyline of Harry Potter takes place in Britain and there are many things which only a British know about, like any particular culture or habit.
5.Philosopher, Not For Americans
As the makers thought that Americans are not familiar with the term “Philosopher’s Stone” they changed it with “Sorcerer’s Stone”. Every scene where characters say “philosopher” had to be changed with “sorcerer”. I neither knew about Philosopher’s stone nor about Sorcerer’s stone, still enjoyed the movie. Americans have to be pampered a lot! No offense, I know you guys have the biggest weapon in the world, talking about Trump obviously.
6.The Star Owl
The owl of Harry, Hedwig was selected for the movie even before Daniel Redcliff was considered for the role of Harry Potter. Yeah, Hedwig was an important role.
7. Homework Is A Real Problem
The child actors used to do their real school homework on the set to make the school setting real. Great! They were making money while doing their homework, I’m not even allowed to listen to music.
8.Snake!
When I was a kid, I used to think his name is Snake. But really, Alan Rickman did a great work as the character Severus Snape real. Rowling even told him the back story of Snape even before she wrote it in the novel so that he can play his character more efficiently. Alan didn’t tell about it to anyone. R.I.P Alan Rickman, died in 2016.
9.Sharing The Birthday
Harry Potter’s birthday lies on 31st July sharing it with J.K. Rowling’s birthday. No doubt, Rowling did it intentionally while writing the novel but because she considers the fictional Harry Potter character as her own son. She was even offered the role of Harry’s mother in the movie, but she refused saying that she is not into acting even if it is just standing and smiling.
10.Founder Of Hogwarts
The Hogwarts University was founded in 990 A.D. by two witches and 2 wizards. The houses are based on the powers each founder have. This was just the first year, the wizard course is not completed yet.
Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets (2002)
1.Theatrical Info
The release date of the movie was 3 November 2002. It was out in the cinema much sooner than the expectation of the audience. Makers made and released the movie soon after the release of the first installment because they were afraid that the kids will grow up.
2.The Chamber Of Galleons
The movie bagged over $850 million on a budget of $100 million.
3. What Is Galleon
You muggle, don’t know about Galleon? Knut, Sickle, and Galleon are a wizarding currency which is bronze, silver, and gold respectively and hence in increasing order.
4. Who Is Muggle?
You Muggle, don’t know about Muggle? Muggle is a term used in the movie to refer anyone who doesn’t know anything about magic and wizarding.
5. Adobe, I mean, a Dobby!
No, this is not Gollum from Lord Of The Rings, although I always thought so, that guy is much more disgusting than him. Dobby is a servant of the Malfoy family, and I really don’t know what he has to serve, he always spoils every work, until it all ends.
