I imagine that watching all eight Harry Potter movies one after the other — as I did several months ago, after years of resistance to the entire franchise for what were, in retrospect, very stupid reasons — is a very different experience from seeing each one as it was released. But those of you who actually saw the films as they were meant to be consumed can simulate the marathon experience with this wonderful supercut of each and every spell in the series. Seventeen minutes of Latin incantations, dramatic wand waves, and climactic battle scenes await you below, in a clip that also doubles as a record of Harry and his friends’ journey from nervous novices to powerful wizards.
