    the difference i guess is that Harry Potter is an ass franchise with no strong foothold in the video game market. but i am a sailing enthusiast myself so ultimately it doesnt matter

      Harry Potter is an ass franchise

      This is true, and JKR is so out there repulsive as well.

      I won't be playing the game anyways, but if I was a Harry Potter fan and saw her comments, I would probably boycott the game too even if it made me a hypocrite.

      I guess we're all hypocrites in some way

        hearing all the people gushing about the magic of the franchise and getting giddy over what house they will choose honestly gives me the heebie jeebies. like i grew up with it too, i have zero clue how theyre mustering all this enthusiasm for bad performances by child actors.

          I updated the first reply now.

          Also yeah I already had one awkward teenage phase in a English style boarding school, don't need another one.

            maybe i was just destined to not give a fuck. i feel like pokemon starters have better characterization than what is in the harry potter movies :shrug-outta-hecks:

              yeah, pretty much. gryffindor is the good guys who are cool and nice, slytherin is the bad guys who are evil and slimy and live in a dungeon. ravenclaw and hufflepuff are, like, there. sometimes. thats pretty much it

            on the whole the first two films are still pretty good if you entirely divorce them from JK Rowling but the child actors were very unambiguously bad (except for emma watson, she managed to make Hermione seem exactly the right level of self assured annoying teacher’s pet she is in the first few books)

              Hard-core disagree, they did a decent job. They conveyed shock, surprise, fear, and all their emotions decently. Some lines were clunky but that's because they're talking about weird British magic stuff
