That did just go a bit doolally in the last season(s), though. Whereas the Potter books, while I had my doubts about 4-6, I thought 7 totally redeemed everything.
With the Potter films, I think they've more and more captured the magic of the books. The first one, I saw at the cinema and enjoyed at the time, but almost as soon as I came out I thought, this is just a theme park ride, not a work of art in its own right. This is the first one since which I've seen at the cinema, because they just increasingly have a feel for the world - and Davd Yates in particular is the director they clearly needed all along.
