Favorite: Harry Potter World

Have you ever had a magical dream in your childhood? As one of the most popular and successful series in the history of literature and cinema, Harry Potter has brought glory to the childhoods of I don’t know how many children. Everyone has dreamed that they also received the admission letter brought by Hedwig one night and walked into the dreamy Hogwarts castle with full of expectations. As the creator of this great imaginative world, author J.K. Rowling has a lot to answer for. In 1990, she met a little boy with dark glasses on a train trip, which became her inspiration later on. Since then, J.K. Rowling has slowly shaped the story of a young boy who receives a letter from Hogwarts and enters it to begin learning magic. From there, a journey to the rich and vast world of magic officially begins. The worldview of Harry Potter is extremely complex, with countless characters and settings involved, yet the work has faced several rejections from publishers. It wasn’t until 1997 that the book was officially published and quickly became a hit.

In 2001, the first step in the series of movies adapted from the novel was officially released. Compared to the written word, the film has been able to convey a much fuller and more diverse message, and this has broadened the audience for Harry Potter to a certain extent. We want to use this article to discuss the components of the Harry Potter book and movie worlds with you and give you the easiest way to watch them.

Part 1: A Simple Quiz: Which Harry Potter House Are You?

As we mentioned in the previous part, the success of Harry Potter is inseparable from its vast worldview and setting. And the most outstanding of all these elements is the setting of the four great houses. Each of these houses corresponds to a different magical spirit, and these colleges use the Sorting Hat to probe the innermost core of each candidate’s traits when recruiting students. From there, the children are sorted into places that best suit them. The four main houses are Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff. Harry, the protagonist of the story, is assigned to Gryffindor House precisely because of his courageous traits.

Another thing that makes this setting so famous is that it is highly interactive. The official Harry Potter website has long since launched. It has a number of quizzes on it, allowing each fan to test which house they belong to, as well as the Patronus to which they belong. In this way, everyone seems to feel that Hogwarts is real and that they are part of it. Next, we will briefly introduce the spirit that these four houses honor and the totems they belong to. Come along and find out which Harry Potter house you are in.

How to Save the Movies Forever?

We recommend that you save Harry Potter on HBO Max forever; HBO has official downloads available, but you can only get them if you upgrade your account to an ad-free version. In this case, you can try some helpful Max Downloaders, such as CleverGet MAX Downloader. They not only support downloading ad-free versions of movie and TV resources but also allow you to choose your subtitles, format, and definition.

Part 5: Conclusion

At the end of this article, a sentence suddenly dawned on me.

“Toutes les grandes personnes ont d’abord été des enfants. (Mais peu d’entre elles s’en souviennent.”

It is a French, written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, the author of the book Le Petit Prince. (The Little Prince) The English version of it is “All grown-ups were once children… but only few of them remember it.”

Everyone has, or used to have, an extraordinary dream in their heart. As children, we are bold and happy and curious about the whole world. We all used to fantasize that we may have some remarkable ability that would give us a ticket to enter the magic world.

The success of Harry Potter proves that there is a soft area exists in every one of us, that at the very corner of our hearts, we all, eager for tenderness. Harry Potter is no doubt our Neverland, though it is out of the question that we can become Peter Pan. Kind of a pity. But we will hang on.

In 2026, the Harry Potter TV series will hit on HBO Max. Fans all over the world are watching, and it may create a new wave of sensation, so let’s wait and see!
