Harry Potter Dark Arts Steelbook Collection [4K Ultra HD]

Product Information

They're probably releasing them to go along with the dark arts season they have going on at WB studios tour in london Sep-Nov. This set includes 8 exclusive Steelbooks of the feature films and an additional ninth Steelbook featuring a collectible set of 7 Horcrux pin badges from the Noble Collection, housed in a super rigid slipcase. In Harry Potter’s world, portraits come to life, potions transform, time reverses, Quidditch players soar, dragons attack and magic is everywhere. The choices, the breakthroughs and the early decisions are explored here via rare footage, cast and crew reminiscences and more. The 9th steelbook with pins as the Horcruxes is an alright idea (not really into pins but the inclusion of the Horcruxes in some form is appreciated).

Also, while the steelbooks are nice with good artwork, they are predictably matte finished and only contain a single 4K disc, which appears to be identical to the one included with the previous set, instead of the two of the original (4K plus BD) so that likely means it will be missing the extras as these usually come on the BD.Who can forget the spectacle of the feasts held in the Great Hall of the castle, the ferocious battles against the dragons of the Triwizard Tournament, and the many heart-warming moments that take place between our favourite characters?

K. Rowling’s literary series, from the expanding landscape of the wizarding world to the darkening palette of each successive film to the young actors maturing along with their characters. The supporting cast includes Emma Thompson, Michael Gambon, Alan Rickman, Julie Walters, Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane, David Thewlis and Timothy Spall. Now, fascinating insights, interviews and watch-it-happen footage let you experience the triumphs of technical wizards who conjured up an awe-inspiring alternate reality. Not an absolute disaster, as the steelbooks are nicely designed, but you need not feel like you are missing anything if you already have the previous 8 movie steelbook set. Interviews featuring Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson and other cast and crew give a glimpse at what it was like for the young stars of the films to grow up in front of the camera.Bloomsbury, Scholastic, or any of the individuals or companies associated with producing and publishing Harry Potter books and films. But Professor Dolores Umbridge (Imelda Staunton)'s Ministry-approved course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the dark forces threatening them and the entire wizarding community. From early interviews to the poignant final day of filming, watch how their ideas of acting, their characters and themselves changed through four directors, eight films and ten years. Meanwhile, the sixth-formers grapple with teenage hormones as various romantic liaisons unfold between them, some more dignified than others.
