Neon Hitch Gold. Director: Writers:, Starring:,,,,, ». While the latest release of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban conjures up the same 1080p/VC-1 transfer that left fans breathless in 2007, Warner's three-year-old encode holds up incredibly well. Michael Seresin's grim vision of Hogwarts is far removed from the colorful school Harry attended in Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrets. Ghostly golds, chilling blues, ominous primaries, pale skintones and ravenous shadows arrive in force, wiping away the warmth and hope that dominated Chris Columbus' installments of the saga.
