Just make her Indian. Didn’t she have two parents that are doctors? They didn’t say she didn’t smell like curry.

DEI first, story second. Whatever story is written or changed has to be changed to center or feature the DEI characters-- regardless of their importance or existence in the original story.

Why pick somebody that's actually as old as Dumbledore? Why not pick somebody middle aged and healthy, then I dunno, apply old man makeup?

Why not just make the movies they said they were going to? Fuck this DEI recon series.
They teased people with the idea of original cast sequels and then shit this trash out for a bait and switch.

I assume this has to do with Rowling. She holds this IP with an iron grip. If she said no to movies, it means the premise was shit and or the money wasn't right.i have no doubts that the studio would love more fucking movies. They shit the bed with these dangerous beasts or whatever that bullshit was. I saw some of pt 3 while I was in the hospital. I shut the TV off. The first one was good. The second one was unnecessary.
Cutie nerd covered it well.

From what I recall in early talks they wanted JK to hand the movies over and take her off of them entirely for the reboot sequels, (probably to appease the kids and say "hey look we got rid of JK Rowling")
It looks like that didn't happen, hence this TV show.
There was some effort to get her name reduced in the final Beasts movie as well.

The potter kids need to eat a bag of dicks. Daniel Radcliffe is a fucking nobody now. Emma Watson is a used up piece of meat after Weinstein made her suck his goblin cock. They're easily replaceable now. They waited way too long and no longer hold any sway. Get a new cast and move forward. JKR also needs to get her shit together and write new Hogwarts stories. Most people don't want to see the same story rebooted. They want new adventures.

Nah, nobody wants this either. Harry Potter was lightning in a bottle, she'll never replicate that success.

I remember the Warner CEO was delusional to think he could get JK to let go of the films. Zaslav was equally delusional thinking the kids are somehow a box office draw in current year as you said. They are washed and they were so young nobody cares. Plus each of them has fizzled out. If I see any of the kids names on a movie it's more of a reason to skip it than check it.

I disagree. If she can make a bunch of successful books, there is a formula she knows how to create more popular stories. Honestly, I think she burned out on the whole thing and prefers collecting money and trolling social media rather than revisiting the potterverse and making something new.
I would like to know who advised Watson and Radcliffe to shit on JKR while their careers are already in the toilet. You never shit on the money. They should have begged her to include them in new potter projects.

I was referring to new potter stories. She's done with writing new books about the wizarding world. all she does is bitch at fans and their theories on social media in regards to the subject.Not sure why you think she doesn’t still write. She has a series of 6+ books out which got turned into a TV series and is actually really good.
