Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkabanmentary (Patreon)

On our final commentary of the year, we’re chatting over what is possibly the best entry in the franchise, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban! How refreshing is it to get a wildly better director at the helm? Why did Dumbledore think Hagrid was cleared for teaching? How funny is that executioner fella’s get-up? Is this the grossest werewolf design in film history? And is there a soul alive who doesn’t know we despise J.K. Rowling? PLUS: Turns out Professor Snape has a goon cave beneath the school!

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban stars Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Richard Griffiths, Fiona Shaw, David Thewlis, David Bradley, Michael Gambon, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane, Tom Felton, Matthew Lewis, Timothy Spall, and Gary Oldman as Sirius Black; directed by Alfonso Cuarón.
