How long are all the harry potter movies: Harry Potter is one of the most successful movie franchises of all time. The Harry Potter series was released over a decade ago, but it still has a dedicated audience and is hugely popular in China, where it’s known as Elijio Gaduin no Jidai (literal translation: “The Final Years of Leiria University”).
The first film in the series, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, grossed $260 million worldwide on its release in 2001 — enough to put it among the top-grossing films of all time.
But there’s a dark side to this success . . .

Text: Writer Nicole Candela posted a video this week showing her son watching Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince — which premiered in July 2011 — alongside his parents. After being shown the first film (which was only available in Japanese), Candela says that she and her husband were shocked by how long the second half of the series is (3 hours). It also surprised her that they were able to watch all seven films together without any trouble.
The couple said their son seemed to enjoy seeing his favorite films again, although he expressed dismay at how much longer some are compared to previous ones. “My son can finish watching these films pretty quickly now that he knows what to expect,” she said.

How long are all the harry potter movies?
The Harry Potter series of books has been around for 20 years now. I’ve read all of them, from the first book to the last one. But I can count them on my fingers.
You can see why I’m so curious about this topic, because the books have been around long enough that they’re starting to look like a movie franchise. The series is already “formulaic,” and I don’t think we need an official word on how long a movie takes to make.
Take a look at this list of movies that opened in theaters before Harry Potter: Titanic (1997), The Godfather (1972), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984), Star Wars: A New Hope (1977), Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Back to the Future (1985), Blade Runner (1982) and its sequel, Blade Runner 2049 .
Don’t get me wrong, there are some great movies out there — but do we really need another “Harry Potter”? Do you even need it to be successful? Here’s my take on it:
1) How long was it until a Harry Potter movie opened in theaters?
2) How long is it until another one comes out?
3) What are the odds of two or three being released at once?
4) How much will they cost per minute?
5) What parts make up their budget?

Length of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002) is the first book of the “Potter” series. It is a very well-known book, and it has been a cultural phenomenon since its release in September 1998.
But what makes it so popular? How long are all the Harry Potter movies combined?
It’s a question that has been asked by many fans, as well as many critics, but everyone agrees: The books are read in order. They are read sequentially, not wholly chronologically or in a random fashion – they follow the same story arc.
The books are divided into three parts: The first book (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone) is about Harry Potter’s childhood; his schooling with his father, Albus Severus Potter, at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry; and his first magical encounter with Lord Voldemort. Thereafter, Harry begins attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. All three books take place during several years from Harry’s third year to his fourth year at Hogwarts, including two summers there. Then he goes to school at Muggle College for one year before returning to Hogwarts for his fifth year in 1992–93.
Harry Potter is one of the most recognizable children’s characters in fiction; it has been said that JK Rowling invented this character when she was 15 years old while living in fictional Jamaica Kötter (the fictional country where “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” takes place). JK Rowling has explained that she was inspired by her brother — who used to read “Harry Potter stories” to her — saying that he would sometimes come home with “too many feathers on his head!! I would run away screaming but he loved every minute because when I came back hiding my face under my books he was laughing so hard!

The third film in the series, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), was directed by Alfonso Cuarón with screenplay written again by Steve Kloves based on stories from “Deathly Hallows: Part Two”. It tells about Sirius Black being framed for the murder of child prodigy James Pritchett and being imprisoned inside Azkaban Prison where he escapes while under guard of Alecto Carrow but is pursued by Lucius Malfoy who has transformed himself into a werewolf due to partial magical transformation potion given to him by Severus Snape.[1] Simultaneously Sirius Black is attacked in Azkaban Prison but he fights back only to be killed trying to escape when killed by Alecto Carrow.[2]

It is estimated that Harry Potter holds the most number of fans in popular culture today, including an estimated 750 million worldwide (including 100 million in the United States alone).
To date, four Harry Potter movies have been released and are still being produced. The first film was released on November 1, 2001. At that time, there were no widely available DVDs of any of the films due to their high production costs.
