Because theatre performances can only be seen by the number of people who are in the auditorium, and only once, while it's happening. Movies can be watched infinite times by anybody forever.

that's a more general interpretation of several words in a Twitter post. it's not like he was saying the entire endeavour is pointless, just remarking the costume is basically the same.

which yeah i agree with: they could do a Harry Potter animation, or stop motion series (the old British CBBC style), or something?

of course they'll do similar costumes because that's how they were in the books: but it's going to be the same style. i wouldn't even be surprised if they kept the same music, the way the new Superman did.

Fucking retarded question.
Why is Columbus so butthurt and retarded?
The HBO reboot is a series. Series are much longer than a movies, allowing it to be more faithful to the source material. After book 3 or whatever, the HP books get longer and longer, and the movies were cutting off content. Make no mistake, Rowling is a bad writer and the books are bad kidsโ€™ books, but goddamnit is Columbus butthurt

Only decided to bother with the books in between 2007 and 2011 but I always kind of lol at the Half-Blood Prince as a subtitle because it gets the imagination going and you expect something far more interesting it being an edgelord nickname Snape used for his autistic potion book. It certainly made me expect some sort of very cool new element/plot point crucial to Voldefag's defeat.

To give more time to the books instead of shoving them into 2.5 hour movies.

Lots of stuff got cut from the books, and people are obsessed with harry potter enough that they fully want to be immersed into the world of harry potter and pretend they live there. This show is going to do gangbusters.

Plus that new director absolutely ruined the last 3 books, I'm hoping HBO does better. All I remmeber from deathly hallows part 1 was a fucking hour of stupid love triangle mellowdrama, then they speedran the horcruxes in like 5 minutes of part 2.

I like Nick Frost well enough but he'll be a shitty Hagrid. Hagrid, to my recollection, is this big friendly heart of gold type that becomes scary when he's actually angry. I don't think Nick Frost can pull that off at all - all he has is the West Country twang. Coltrane was very good (irrespective of the shitty writing) - he's some fatty 5'7 Scottish guy IRL but the movies made me believe this isn't a guy you want to piss off by calling Dumbledore a fag or quack

Everyone who read them knew there was context and scenes missing in the movies. They were for general audiences, but were somewhat incoherently put together.
It definitely seems wasteful to remake them when the time of the books being a phenomenon themselves is over.
Iโ€™d imagine Disney will remake the Star Wars prequels/Clone wars now if this is successful.

The funniest thing about this whole shitshow was the redditor response. People, in general, want fidelity when character are adapted. If nuSnape was played by a white man but they revealed in show he'd have a mane of curly golden hair the reaction would be apoplectic. But because it's a black man, these fucks fall silent over fears of being called raycis. So instead they pivot to saying he shouldn't be Snape because 'oh my science he's just so heckin beautiful and sexy and delicious and snape is an icky white incel chud.' Now look at your photo. Beautiful sex god my ass.

It doesn't sound like a good idea no matter how you look at it.

You have a point about any change, but they are also right about Snape specifically. Snape has a lot of things to him already, he was bullied, in love with Harry's mom, always between good and evil, and hard to read, he is a caricature of an old conservative and stern brit teacher from the past. That's what's interesting about him, but now, every one of these points will get run over by a racial debate.


The woke crowd won't see it because of Rowling and the chuds will skip it because of diversity hire, who is happy about this?


And I like the idea of a series, in terms of pace it's the best way to adapt the books, I have zero problems with the rest of the cast so far. But it had to be super faithful or super good to earn viewers.

Harry Potter is post ww2 propaganda designed to impart the founding myth of modern british society into the minds of the young i.e. beating the nazis.
unfortunately the casting of those older movies don't represent the demographics of the future Britain the elites wish for.
The point is to update their propaganda for a more diverse Britain.

I hope they don't, but they probably will. To be honest I have no issue with this Hermione, I always thought Watson was miscast. In the books, at least the first ones, she was sort of an ugly annoying nerd, though there was nothing explicitly racial about it, you could tell the three main characters were meant to be outcasts in some way.

The point would've been to create a long lasting show of high quality so we can once again immerse ourselves in Hogwarts. Due to it being in show format, we'd also get more indepth storylines and character development since a show wouldn't be constrained by a movie's runtime.

Unfortunately they're putting woke shit in it and have hired the most abysmal writers and showrunner. So we're just going to get shit and be happy that the movies somehow got made the way they were made.

Hereโ€™s how it works: for example, the school uniforms. Itโ€™s just a shirt with a tie, like in some British schools. The Hogwarts uniforms are based on British school uniforms (just a bit more retro), and both the movies and the series are based on the books. Funny how that works.

Books 1-2 are redundant, they are fairly short and the movies covered those stories well

However, movies 4-7 are terrible adaptations of source material, and a 2 hour movie format makes it borderline impossible to cover what the books did.

Re-doing it as a TV series with ~8 hours per book actually might result in a story that resembles what the books told

they just started walking round in jeans and jumpers in the third film. not how it works, unless it's a non-uniform day. when they went on about jumpers and that in the books, it was during the holidays.

The movies were terrible adaptations because they changed characterization of key characters, omitted a bunch of plot points and added a bunch of nonsense.

They weren't terrible because Hagrid's costume sucked, so there's no point in changing what worked

Money, but slightly more indirectly than you might assume
The show itself doesn't need to make money, it just needs to keep Harry Potter in the cultural zeitgeist so that merch sales, Halloween costume sales, and attendance at Universal Studios don't go down. If you put out a new season of this show every 1-2 years for the next decade, you keep the franchise alive without resorting to pointless spin offs like Fantastic Beasts. This is also a move to wrest the franchise away from it's current audience of Millenial cat ladies in training and make kids like it again

Nick Frost is really not a good pick for Hagrid. I think the deranged casting director picked him just because he is a fatass. Hagrid needs to be a lovable big and tall Scottish ogre with that brutish face and a bellowing voice like thunder which Robbie was perfectly suited for. Basically the things you would look for when casting a LOTR dwarf.

the original remakes were in the 30s so they could make them with sound. then in the 50s so they could make them in colour. then in the 70s with better... then better effects in the 80s and better cgi in the 90s.
now its just "replace cgi with the same cgi". the movie isnt being remade because it needed to be, but because they just want to sell the same schlock to a new younger, audience.

This CUNT has the audacity to bitch out after 2 (two) movies in a potential 7 movie franchise because hes TOO TIRED ;_; and leaves it to CUNTS like alfonso cuaron and david yates and fucking literal W H Omegaluls like Mike Newell, leading to a total lack of cohesion and consistency with even such basic things as the layout of the fucking castle, totally abandoning the tone he had himself set in the first two films and leaving the remaining movies a complete mess.

Then he has the AUDACITY to bitch about HBO doing their own version a decade later like he didn't wipe his ass and wash his hands of the whole franchise.

This CUNT single-handedly ruined the entire franchise because he was TOO TIRED and couldn't hack it.

My guess is that they will rugpull at some point and put in a homo love story. Not that they couldn't have done that with animation, but I think it would be seen as more egregious.

It's been 25 years and a good deal of people under that age simply refuse to watch old media. In addition, large portions of each book were cut for runtime, so this allows them to spend more time in the later books, particularly Goblet of Fire, which were absolutely shredded to shit in the movie version.

An 8-10 hour TV show could explore plotlines and aspects of characterisation that were neglected or left out of the 2 hour movies. It's a much slower, more character-driven experience compared to a movie. It could also have a radically different aesthetic and tone to the movie (although it probably won't judging from the little we've seen of it so far is leaning into nostalgia bait). This is why I have always argued for a legit LOTR TV show based on the art style of John Howe. Make it really strange high fantasy and lean into the parts of the book that were left out of the films.
