You went from “separating art from the artist” when Rowling is known to have stolen the Potter idea… to blaming us for vilifying others… as if we are the problem now. People really need to stop justifying their defense of Potter by saying everyone against Rowling is vilifying an entire generation of people. Like no, that’s not happening. Yes there are people that are extremely upset and will misdirect their anger to people, but they certainly are not the majority. The fact that Pappa has been welcomed with a wave a racism after being casted as Snape and yet most of the conversation continues to make excuses for Rowling… why can’t we go after the racists and real troublemakers?

REALITY 80,144 Posted May 27, 2025 Share Posted May 27, 2025 I used to be a big Potterhead when I was younger, but I've since moved on from the franchise. The cast looks good, but I don't understand why they're rebooting it. I mean, I do cause they want that $$$, but creatively, I think it'd be more interesting to follow a new group of students. Hogwarts is filled with so much potential, and the world is so intricate and interesting that it seems lazy to just reboot the franchise. 𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔪𝔬𝔫𝔰𝔱𝔢𝔯 𝔱𝔬𝔯𝔢 𝔞𝔴𝔞𝔶 𝔦𝔱𝔰 𝔪𝔞𝔰𝔨 𝔞𝔫𝔡...𝔦𝔱𝔰 𝔣𝔞𝔠𝔢 𝔴𝔞𝔰 𝔪𝔦𝔫𝔢.

monketsharona 90,092 Posted May 27, 2025 Share Posted May 27, 2025 I feel like this show will be a HUGE tank. It's a reject in a big part of the Potter community. And the controversies around Rowling won't help. Mark my words, they won't make the seven seasons, or they will cut some budget during the run.

I thought the world building in Hogwarts Legacy, for instance, was really great. Why not create new stories in the same universe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s ridiculous that they’re remaking a story when the original didn’t even conclude 15 years ago. This is remake-mania at its worst, and it deserves to fail. 2. JK is awful Hope it flops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a direct sequel, with new young people, set literally in 2025 would catch imagination. Rowling may control the IP though and could be intentionally restricting any such stories to be created, which would be a shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
