I’m always interested in new possibilities, but what exactly is new with this clip? At a quick glance, it looks pretty vanilla to me (I readily admit that I haven’t spent nearly as much time with these films as you have).
Any chance of finishing the Deathly Hallows for the previous edit series?
The visual effects are new; for example, Hagrid riding his bike, McGonagall’s transformation is never shown, the Private Drive shots (including a new with McG and Dumbledore walking through Privet Drive), audio and music at the middle-part of the opening (when Hagrid gives the baby to Dumbledore) and a lot more. The fact you don’t notice a single change is actually very positive.
And yes, Deathly Hallows is at work. No doubt. It’s just happening slowly.
This thread was to showcase a way to modernize the first two movies and if people found it appealing (I sure do).
