The most successful film franchise of all time will be available on home video in one nifty box set early next week with the release of the Harry Potter Wizardâs Collection, and a devoted fan has put together a rather impressive video retrospective to mark the occasion. Titled âMischief Managed,â the video goes through all eight film adaptations of J.K. Rowlingâs wondrous series, with scenes accompanied by the franchiseâs various scores. Itâs a great watch for Harry Potter fans, but itâs also interesting to see the different directorsâ visions back-to-back. The story gets dark quite fast, but itâs neat to see it progress from the colorful, faithful touch of Chris Columbus on the first two films, to Alfonso Cuaronâs inventive and playful twist on Azkaban, to the bombastic Britishness of Mike Newellâs Goblet of Fire, and finally David Yatesâ grounded yet haunting stamp on the final four films.Hit the jump to watch the fan-made video retrospective. The Harry Potter Wizardâs Collection will be available on September 7th.This video was put together by Kees van Dijkhuizen Jr. (via First Showing):
