Adam and I are back at it again with the next episode in our coverage of the Harry Potter series! In tonight's episode, we discuss (among other things): the interaction of horror and child-like wonder and fantasy, whether the giant frogs in the choir are singing or being played like instruments, our interpretations of J. K. Rowling's infusion of social and political commentary into her stories, and the intentionality of cgi hippogriff poop.
While each episode in our Harry Potter series will primarily focus on the specific movie that was just watched, there will be conversations about how the movie deviates from the book, references to information from previous movies/books, discussions about events that take place later in the series, and comparisons to events in other series/franchises. So, consider this your general spoiler warning. But, if you've already seen/read all of Harry Potter, then watch out for hippogriff droppings and give your time turner a turn or
