How long would it take to watch all the Harry Potter movies?
Warner Bros.If you’re considering doing a Harry Potter movie marathon, here’s how long it would take to watch all eight films.
Harry Potter is one of the most successful film franchises of all-time. Based on the books by J. K. Rowling, the series kicked off with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone — or Philosopher’s Stone if you live in the UK — in 2001.
Movies then followed pretty much annually, with each film concerned with a different school year at Hogwarts. While the lengthy final book — Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — was split into two movies.
