My 2nd favorite movie of the trilogy. Another enjoyable viewing that helped me understand the story more and appreciate Alfonso Cuarón's directing more. I think he did a better job than Chris Columbus (but I still loved the job that Chris did). This was the first truly "dark" movie of the series thusfar and I think Alfonso started it off beautifully. At first I liked the warm/fuzzy feeling that years 1 & 2 gave you, but after watching this movie tonight, I really dug the darker approach. Hopefully the rest will be equally if not better than Azkaban.
SPOILERS! BTW, has anyone noticed how Snape always seems to know everything? He knew that Quirrell was going after the Sorcerer's Stone in year 1, he knew Lockheart was a fraud in year 2 and now he knew that Luppin was a wherewolf in year 3. Could this lead to something big in the later films? END OF SPOILERS
