One thing that's going to amuse me is that everyone in this project will have to suck Rowling's overlong clit. They can't go around saying how evil, far-right, and transphobic she is on Twitter or in interviews. They have to smile and say nothing but glowing words about her at every opportunity. Heck, if HBO and/or Rowling are smart, they'll put heavy restrictions on what their cast and crew can and can't say to the press and on social media. Because if there's one thing I've learned, it's that actors on TV and streaming shows are a lot more expendable than Hollywood actors, and more likely to be replaced between seasons with little fanfare. Better yet, this is going to put all of them into the crosshairs of the left, who will take ever opportunity to insult and harass these people for daring to ever get involved with this project. And no amount of rewriting it to better appeal to the "modern audience" is ever going to change that.

That's basically where my joy ends. The fact that Rowling is basically redoing an old glory proves to me that she's a hack who lacks the imagination to make anything new. She can't even fucking expand on this (poorly thought-out) world, as shown by the Fantastic Beasts films. And I'm irritated that Harry Potter isn't fucking going away. It's going to keep on getting shoved in our faces for decades without end. Though I guess it's better that it gets destroyed for the sake of the "modern audience" than something I like.
