Episode 230 - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

(Deep Dive begins at 27:35)

Expecto patronum! Join your favorite TransAtlantic podcasters, Ian, Liam, and Georgia (Megan's training to be a dementor) as we're joined once again by KevDog - freshly broken out of Azkaban - as we're heading to a remodeled Hogwarts while messing with the fabric of time itself in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.  We're managing our mischief in our 230th episode as we discuss:

• Whether it is possible to divorce the films, and the IP, from the author of the source material.
• Whether it's fair for Potter fans to continuously harp on about the books and if judging it by its fidelity to the novel should be their approach
• How hard it is to go from precocious child to adolescent actor and which of our cast are definitely not pulling it off
• Some of the options for the new Dumbledore and Michael Gambon's approach to taking the part over from Richard Harris
• Ian has to retire his Voldemort as Dumbledore voice (or does he?)
• There's an update on Hermes and his Revolution (in musical fashion, no less)
• KevDog returns with Easter Egg Corner
• Is this the best Harry Potter film of the bunch?
• Whether or not Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is the Best Film Ever
