How come they barely ever went to class? I thought they were there to learn magic

Only when the plot needed them too.

because only the autistic would want 1 hour of a 2 hour movie to be them sat there having lessons.
Probably because Harry Potter was easily one of the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises. Each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects?all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.
Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>But at least the books are ggood though!
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."
I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King

They spent a crapload of time in class in the books, made me want to be a Hogwarts student
In the later books there were more interruptions, and I think the school was closed for the entire last book or two

I'm assuming this is pasta but it is a book and movie series meant primarily for children.

Hurr durr look how edgy I am eventhough I don't understand shit about literature
Another reason why a TV series would have worked better than films.
The HP movies had some of the best casting (at least for most of the adult characters) of any book to film project ever made, but the scripts were almost all crap.

Hogwarts was open, but under heavy surveillence by Death Eaters.
