Yes. They were both great, but the movies are movie convenient to watch and I watch them multiple times per year.

Read all the books and watched up to part 6. Lost interest for good when JK outed herself as gross. It's not like, a conscious decision i made. I just stopped liking/caring about the franchise :v

I really like the series and would love to pick up that Hogwarts game if it had any chance of coming to Switch without Cloud.

They're fun, sure. Have a lot of nostalgia for the Jim Dale audio books, and the movies are a good casual watch.

Haven't really cared for any of the post-book content though. Avoided Cursed Child and dropped Fantastic Beasts after that disaster of a first movie.

I appreciate the detail put into all the lore but it just never grabbed my interest, even when it was at its peak relevance.

I enjoyed the movies. (The fifth one is a little dull.) I never had any incentive to read the books, especially not with J.K. Rowling's rants against transsexuals.

I liked the second book and the seventh book. The movies were mostly meh, not quite. I liked Alan Rickman as Severus Snape. Also good was the end of the 4th movie, Goblet of Fire

what did rowling say exactly?
she's been on this weird zero sum crusade against trans people for a while now, i'm surprised you haven't heard of it. like pitching a fit over inclusive language wrt menstruation, asserting gender and sex are the same thing, and stuff like trans rights and acceptance is encroaching on and eroding the rights of "women" (i put women in quotes because she says women, not cis women)

she also wrote a weird gay panic trans-bathroom screed about a male serial killer whose MO is to crossdress and invade women's bathrooms. her pen name is a pioneer of gay conversion therapy also

she's just really weirdly victimized herself and sees the acceptance of trans people coming at the expense of cis-women, and she goes on silly histrionic tirades about it with some frequency

this is by no means comprehensive, just a cursory write up

No, I never read the books or saw the movies. I'm definitely not now since Rowling turned out to be a terrible person.

The books were good and some of the movies were, but I don't even want to think about that shit anymore.
At least we got Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson out of the movie series.

Emma Watson says that she has retired from all movies, although she still does TV commercials and reality competitions
