Jon breaks down the 6th Harry Potter movie with a little help from local Potter-head, David Myles Holland Hall. David addresses some topics from previous episodes and gives some much needed context to the story as a book reader. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is a step down from The Order of Phoenix, but not as bad as The Goblet of Fire ... even though teen romance makes an unwelcome return. Also ... are these movies sponsored by NAMBLA?

Harry and a merry band of anarchists clash with the evil bureaucrats in the Ministry of Magic who are using the media to manipulate people and debunk the dangerous conspiracy theory of Voldemort’s return. 95% less teen romance, but lots of man crushes and better CGI.

In this fourth episode, Jon goes through Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. The good stuff is good, but the bad stuff is a way-too-long detour into a teen romance movie. Great bad guys, Ron is an incel, Harry Stinks and Myrtle the Toilet Ghost is kind of a creep.

Jon jumps into the third movie, Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban. Harry is an angsty teen now, Quidditch is still a stupid game, there is a shrunken head with a Jamaican accent and despite the new haricuts, the formula is getting more obvious. It started out as a possible new high for the series before it kind of falls apart in the second half.

Jon dives head first into the second movie in the series with Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets. It's a similar, but better movie than the first. Jon is still confused about Harry's home life, Quidditch, and the Hogwarts houses. We have some new characters introduced and some old ones whose stories have not really advanced since the first movie aside from the ravages of puberty. Will they be past the awkward phase by the next movie? Is Dobby going to be the Jar Jar of the series?
