  • I think it’s great!

    Harry Potter has been such a huge part of my life for 20+ years. I think for a FILM podcast, you guys are doing great! Obviously the films will leave out a lot of things from the books, but this podcast focuses on the films. Lots of differing opinions and person is great! I plan on continuing to listen! So far I love it!!

  • Not good

    Was looking forward to this, but I’m disappointed. Feels phony and scripted, complete with fake laughter at lame jokes.

  • We’ve only seen the movies?

    Has anyone on this podcast read the books? It doesn’t seem like it? Please read the books and do some further research! So disappointing and a huge waste of time! Good luck
