One of the newly announced writers for Max's upcoming Harry Potter TV series Andy Greenwald claimed that he did not like the idea of a rigorous adaptation of J.K. Rowling's books despite admitting that it would be successful. Furthermore, he admitted to no...
Rowling usually maintains pretty tight control over her work, though. In fact, this quote is part of the article, from that same guy:
I think this means that their ability to subvert is limited. They’ll be stuck with doing stuff Rowling agrees to, which I would expect means we might see a “more diverse” main trio—she’s signed off on a black Hermiome before—and we might see the insertion of extra gay stuff for Dumbledore, or maybe some Jewish students, or anything that plays into her habit of grafting in extra brownie points things that didn’t really exist in the original versions. What we probably won’t see is wholesale departure from or subversion of major plot points and character traits. We won’t get “actually, James Potter was kind of a douche,” we won’t get trannies, etc.
Too bad much of the DEI slop is coming from inside the house. Rowling is the one who made Dumbledore a poofter and said Hermione was a shitskin after the fact
The lore is pretty clear that goblins are a different species with their own magic system and wouldn't be allowed entrance into Hogwarts, as it's a school for human magic users.
They put a Tranny in the Hogwarts Legacy game and she didn't stop them.
True enough, perhaps her guard is slipping. Although my guess is that she just cares less about video games than she does about other media.
Wasn't that more a hinted at tranny than and out and out necromorph type? Like I swear hey just gave a stocker woman a male voice actor than make the character look like they're on 15 different drugs to live.
No there's a line of dialogue where it says its goblin friend was the only one who understood "when I realized I was a witch instead of a wizard." It's fully explicit.
That's ham-handed even for them.
Ah ok, never played the game, only saw clips because of the drama for streamers because of it so remembered there was something but couldn't remember how in your face it was.
That comment is just dripping with spite. These people are obsessed with corrupting good IP for modern audiences.
And he flat out admits that he doesn't want the project to succeed. And he ought to be smart enough to know that his way has resulted in massive commercial failures in the TV and games domains.
He just wants to destroy what was good and push a political message.
Coincidentally I'm rewatching the old Harry Potter movies. While I don't like how some coincidences and epic timings just happened to move the plot along, I do miss when movies were very satisfying to watch.
The Harry Potter areas at Universal have tons of rules. The lawyers for Warner Bros show up as guests to see if the workers say the full name and do specific things as required by contract.
