Sci-fi is any story that has elements of science that does not exist
or a world that does not exist yet. So PotA is definitely sci-fi.

However, I like how some story-tellers explore things with a
philosophical message.

I would want to rewatch the Hobbit or LofR every now and then like
visiting a good ol' friend, or discover new things the next time.

For example, one of the films in LotR series had implanted other
celebs in brief cameos, in the background, or as extras, (easter
eggs?). I did not realize that Ed Sheeran (musician) was in a music
scene. Rewatching it, I'm thinking.. how could I miss that?  Stephen
Colbert also has about a 5 second scene in one of those films.
