I mean, is anything Harry Potter considered fine art? That's what the meme meant by cinema

I would argue that yes, the first movie is fine art, it was literally genre defining and captured a large majority of youths minds when it was released

Just because its technically a "kids movie" doesn't make it not art

I mean, fair, but I understood it as a "must watch" movie. Something that everyone needs to have seen kinda thing.

And Harry Potter, I think, does fit that bill.
