    I don’t hate it, but I’m still not really interested in it either ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I’m not a Harry Potter fan, but I can’t think of a better choice.

    The movies have some of the best casting of all time. Maggie Smith. David Thewlis. Julie Walters. Emma Thompson.

    Then the pure luck with Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Front, and Emma Watson.

    How anyone can be so arrogant that they can even come close to that casting is beyond me

      I heard J.K. Rowling is actively looking to make people forget about the old cast bc they are supportive of trans rights.

        Damn. That makes the movies better then imo.

        They honestly kind of are one of the perfect movie series, too. If she wants to burn all those bridges then fuck her.

        Wow, what a bitch. Even setting aside her abhorrent stance, which is difficult, those three fucking made her. Her books were popular but compared to the movies?! She owes about 80% of her life to them.

          shes really on a Terf streak to eliminate all existence of trans rights/people. i heard her gripe started when she believed trans people invaded safe space for “feminist or woman” its kinda no wonder she hangs out with Musk on occasion.

        It’s nothing to do with her. WB made the decision because revenue from the original films has slowed. This will reinvigorate the whole franchise.

      Don’t forget Richard Harris, Kenneth Branagh, Jason Isaacs, Alan Rickman, and Gary Fucking Oldman.

      The Harry Potter movies were stacked.

      The equivalent would be a Marauders series which would be something the fandom actually wants and thus a smart move.
