Harry Potter had phenomenally good source material such that they would have had to try really hard to mess it up. I'll hold my breath for the TV series... Jurassic Park had two books, from which they've now made five (or is it six? Jeez who cares by this point) movies.

It also helps that Harry Potter is really a single story divided into 7 books/8 movies. Jurassic Park was a story told in a single book that was later expanded because it was profitable.

> Harry Potter had phenomenally good source material such that they would have had to try really hard to mess it up. I wish that were true, but there's too many terrible movies with outstanding source material.
