D. Post hoc ergo propter hoc(Post hoc fallacy)

Explanation:

Post hoc ergo propter hoc is an informal logical fallacy that exemplifies that if one event follows another, then the latter must have been caused by the former. It is usually considered as Post hoc fallacy which illustrates a tempting error that shows causality. This includes the determination of conclusion based solely on the order of events instead of considering the potential factors responsible for it. For example, in the given case, the speaker has assumed(concluded) that the listener has liked 'the star war movies' than 'he must also enjoy the Harry Potter Movies' without consulting the person which represents causality and conclusion based entirely on the sequence of events.
