Synopsis: "An orphaned boy enrolls in a school of wizardry, where he learns the truth about himself, his family and the terrible evil that haunts the magical world."

Edit summary: This edit heavily slims down the eight-film series into a trilogy, please note that anything prior to version 5 is a rough cut that is significantly different. The rough cut is very unbalanced, but version 5 makes some deep cuts that create a better narrative arc.

The main goal was to fix the rather poor ending films and focus more on it being a fun magical-school adventure rather than a story fixated on a particular special boy. So I cut everything related to the details of the parents murder, mothers love, and any special abilities resulting from that aside from his scar warning him of impending danger. I also removed all mentions of mudblood or any other racial implications to keep the mood a bit lighter.

This heavily alters the timeline in places, so don't expect a story that's true to the books. I also toned down the teen angst of the later films, removing most of the romance, school dances, etc.

Ver5: Heavily recut and remastered
