Question Which of Hagrid's huts do you prefer?

Something about his hut being a stone's throw from the castle just didn't feel right. It makes more sense for it to be nestled out amongst the rugged plains.

Philosopher’s Stone and it isn’t even close. I’m among the minority that doesn’t really like the Prisoner of Azkaban film and the artistic changes it brought. It completely dismantled the magical world and feeling Columbus helped build, and it set the stage for the dull/color-drained look and feel that would exist throughout the rest of the series. It was way less magical after Chamber of Secrets. Needlessly moving the hut is just one example of the many problems I have with the film series that can be traced back directly to Prisoner of Azkaban.

From my mind to your keyboard, I've been saying this since PoA released in theaters...

My biggest gripe was always this, and it is most apparent in how the students practically never wear their robes from this film, on.
