Harry Potter and the Pretty Good Movies - PWN #27 is the twenty-seventh episode of PWN, uploaded to PaulWesNick on December 7, 2018. It features Ari Froehlich, Wesley Davies, and Nick Geoghegan in a discussion of the Harry Potter Wizard World franchise, in particular the Fantastic Beasts anthology series. The trio compares Harry Potter favorably to other series, including Star Wars and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Description[edit | edit source]
Background[edit | edit source]
This episode was the culmination of Nick's several attempts over PWN's history to release a Harry Potter episode of PWN. As early as its creation in October of 2014, Nick had planned on eventually doing a video on the topic. Such was almost the case when the trailer for Fantastic Beasts was released, but the episode was never filmed. Nick again intended the release of the episode to coincide with the November release of the film's sequel, with the intention being to include a review of the film in the episode, which would have been posted a week later. However, with the stress of college applications, neither Wesley nor Nick could film the video that week as originally intended.
The episode was the third to be filmed at Location Six, a side room of the school's Learning Resource Center. It was also Ari's first "normal episode" (i.e. no guests, and ignoring the twenty-fourth PWN, which was intended more as an announcement than as a real PWN) since Gnome More Gnome Movies - PWN #23 almost two months prior. The previous episode had been filmed with Joey Cianfrani, the first PWN without Ari since 2015.

Inside Jokes[edit | edit source]
This episode is the origin of Ari's Pun Pass, which Wes "earns" after saying "You don't trust me? What do you think I am, an anvil-ain?" He later earns a second pass by responding to Nick's comment about presidents with "Wow, I wonder what set the precedent for that?"
There is a segment where Nick refers to famed zoologist Steve Irwin as "manta ray guy". Ari says you can't call people by what killed them. This is followed by a comedic sequence begun by Wes saying "got shot by Wesley guy, wait what!?" And him slowly backing away.
Nick acknowledges the frequency of presidential humor on PWN, saying that someday, they should make a PWN just about presidents.
