    What are some alternate Harry Potter TV show or movie ideas that would be better than this? Or, why do you think this show is actually a good idea?

      @pazz 5 місяців тому +6

      Marauders/first wizarding war is SUCH a no brainer and fans have been wanting it for years. The only issue is knowing how it ends... They'd have to find a way to make it new and interesting.

      @SuperAhmedAK 5 місяців тому +2

      Honestly there are so many untouched opportunities;
      - the first wizarding war (focusing on the marauders)
      - Tom riddle prequel
      -founders of Hogwarts prequel
      - the cursed child
      - stories of other wizarding schools
      A reboot show was the last thing on my mind… BUT… I’m not against it, because it has a chance to elaborate on parts of the books that the movies didn’t touch on, if they just mimic the movies then the show is a failure

    the movies only JUST managed to keep up with the actors ages. And movies have to shoot significantly less hours of footage than a whole season of television. I fear they will fall behind rather quick. I mean, look at Stranger Things! 4 seasons down and the kids are straight up adults now. By the triwizard tournament, Harry's gonna be pushin 20.

    I would love it if they went with an animated route, but the money just isn’t there. No matter how fantastic an animated show is, it just won’t reach live action levels of revenue. I know a lot of people love the idea of a marauders tv show, which I think could be cool, but also would probably suffer from people misunderstanding James and the other characters that would star in that show. I think going with a Hogwarts legacy route would be much more interesting, going back far enough to not connect to Harry, or Voldemort, and just trying to capture the magical world. I still think the best idea is animation but it just won’t happen, unfortunately.
    Edit: Fantastic vid btw, editing was great, you really deserve more love.

      I felt the same way. Before I decided to stop supporting the franchise in any way, I'd always thought the series would have been perfect for an animated adaptation and would have loved to see it. Like, in terms of the the potential for creative visuals after watching shows like Little Witch Academia and seeing how they portrayed magic in an animated form, I thought the could really run wild with it in that medium. I remember liking how the visuals in the earlier videogames (not bound by needing to try and look convincing in a live action setting) were allowed to be more outlandish in places, before they just became bound entirely to replicating the movie aesthetics. But let's be honest, depending on if/when this series finally gets made, given the trends of live action streaming shows, it's probably gonna be filmed on largely greenscreen sets, filled with technically impressive, but ultimately empty CGI and colour graded into barely readable visuals.

      Fully agree, but even worse is that there won't be a Chris Columbus around to gatekeep and vet for children whose parents were really there supporting their kids and which we're very clearly hoping to get an easy paycheck. He saw how fame affect Macaulay Culkin and his family after _Home Alone_ and did his damnest not to repeat that. Given not one of the main actors have had any hard luck stories after the movies wrapped up, I'd say he's been successful on that.
      For as much control as Rowling has over the franchise, I fully expect she'll be scouting for the worst kind of controlling "gender critical" cultists families in a manner than will make the devotion expected out of North Korean citizens to the Kim family seem open minded by comparison. And we know GCs have no respect for anyone's autonomy, least of all their own children in any aspect of their lives. I can't imagine any parent with any knowledge of her politics opening up their child to the dog piles they will inevitably receive by people who have never grown up.
      It's a terrible situation all the way around.

    This series needs an animated show.
    With every book being as long as it is, it would require several hours of material, but kids age too quickly for that to happen. That's why it needs to be animated. Every book can be a season, the first one being the smallest of course.
    It being animated would also separate it more from the movies.

    Agemates of Rupert or Emma or Daniel will be 37 by 2026.
    I think that is such an age when people have preteen kids.
    For the next coming generation to watch and the series to be kept alive, the timing is perfect.

    Hot take: a show or movie series about another school, but set in the same time frame as Harry's stay at Hogwarts. JK has written these detailed descriptions and lore about every other school in the official Wizarding World webpage, producers and screenwriters have material to take from. This already sets up strong plot lines close to the source material. Because of its origins tied to Scotland, a good candidate could be the American school, Ilvermorny. Plots could be how they tried to get selected, and failed into participating in the Triwizard Tournament, threats from the American Death Eaters and how Voldemort's rise and then war impacted the US and Ilvermorny itself while having their own antagonist, yada yada...
    The endless potential of this IP seems to be overlooked by everyone that's either in a business-only mindset, or not that big of a fan. Just look at the mess of the Fantastic Beasts movies.

    The entire thing is stupid. The first 3 movies cut extremely close to the book canon, so there’s almost nothing they can add to those stories that hasn’t already been shown on screen; so the benefit of the story being a TV show with more time to tell the story doesn’t even kick in until book/season 4. On top of the fact that HP fans have been begging for any kind of Marauders movie series/TV show since the main series ended. It would’ve been a no-brainer.

    I have mixed feelings about this. Some of the scenes and characterizations in the movies were great, and others were...not so great. A new series could fix a lot of the problems of the movies, but you risk losing some of the strengths. Even if you can get J.K. Rowling to write the whole screenplay herself! For example, and IMHO:
    The Good: Hagrid's character was better in the movies, in the books he oftentimes either broke down in tears or flew into a rage, and it made him seem like a child sometimes.
    The Bad: Movie Hermione was given many of Ron's best moments, whether they made sense or not, which made him seem like a joke of a character, and her like a superhero!

    But at the same time, if there is going to be a wizarding world tv series, I would rather have something new or at least something that could open the doors for more stories. I would rather have this new series be an adaption of Hogwarts Mystery, it has a good storyline, it is a prequel (it takes place during the 7 years before Harry, Ron and Hermione went to Hogwarts) and it has a lot of potential on expanding the story and it's characters. These characters should have the same spotlight and recognition as all the others, but many are missing out and Warner Bros are missing out on a chance to make a good show based on this game. Plus it's obvious video game movies are working out and succeeding, look at the Sonic movies, The Super Mario Bros, Friday night at Freddie's and the Last of us for example, they were all based on video games and they were hits in the box office. Why not make Hogwarts Mystery into a tv series?

    the whole reason a person transitions is due to not feeling like they belong in their own body (often after being torchured for years by said feeling)
    Trying to rip away the little relief they get and spamming “you’re not a real woman” is essentially just kicking someone who was already down which is what she’s devoted all her time and energy to now
    And based on her commentary she either doesn’t care or doesn’t understand that
    That being said the Harry Potter franchise is massive worth about 25 billion so even 10% of that is still a massive cash cow (and I doubt it would shrink that much) of the fans who disagree with JK not all are willing to boycott a series that means the world to them
    Plus there is growing commentary on how the books are different from the movies these days (would be nice to see Ron retain his good moments for example)

But, nostalgia can go only so far when the author is not only being extremely Transphobic, but also inspiring lawmakers in both the U.K and the U.S., to push for anti-lgbt policy. Using her words. Using her shoddily written essay. Hell, that's not even mentioning the most current aspect of her denying part's of the Holocaust, and all that anti-semetism, or racist charactures of anyone not a specific type of European.

    A good thing that came out of the entire JK discourse is how many of her die hard fans realized how bad and lazy some of the elements of the wizarding world are after they started consuming the material with a more critical view. It's a universe made out of cardboard that is hold together by the glue that is the Hogwarts experience.

      @@spotsthenpc7796 I disagree. The Wizarding World, like most fictional universes, has tons of potential. The only thing that holds it back is Rowling being the ultimate maker of decisions for the lore. Once someone who isn't so fed up with that universe as she is, takes over, it will flourish with new stories, some maybe even better than Harry Potter itself.

I don’t see how that translates to hatred necessarily. All of that aside, I have to agree with your point of the risk of having a ten year plan on a service that bleeds money. Though Netflix has been in the same boat for years and they’re still at it. As far as the comparison to the rings of power, to my understanding, MAX hasn’t casted an overweight, marginalized lesbian to play the role of Harry Potter.
