I hope she doesn't. Not out of a sense of a agreement with Rowling, but because it's very funny when movie studios don't get their way.
Please no cursed child live action, that would be horrible
yeah that book sucked so bad I've been trying to forget it ever since. I also can't imagine the original trio of actors reading that story and wanting to participate in a live action version of it and tarnish their harry potter legacy that way
Could it be worse than the HP movies tho?
Cursed Child is play.
It has always been live action.
@@ravakanin Absolutely yes.
There's no way they'd adapt the cursed child without massively rewriting it.
Its literally all about Harry's son using time travel to go back in time to save Robert Pattinson from dying (Even though that dude would mean nothing to Harry's son) and as a result of him surviving he becomes a death eater instead and everythings much worse.
Like hooray fans I know you were so sad when Cedric died but dont worry because he was actually one bad day away from becoming a nazi.
sounds like jk rowling and frank miller would share writing tips that's how bad that is.
I.m pretty sure Aqua man 2 came out a few years ago, orrrr it hasn't come out yet. There's no way to know.
You can’t tweet cannon. If it wasn’t in the books it doesn’t exist in lore.
Tbh i hope she keeps it (so) they atop making harry potter stuff basically at all.
Great clip, as always. Now go to bed, and I'll catch the next video at 8 pm North America CST.
If Warner Bros had brain cells they would make an animated series of the books.
Obviously the best answer is Rowling should sell the rights to George Lucas
Keep up the good work boys.... now get on your backs!
Nah, think you're overthinking this, fellas. The runaway success of the game has shown the audience is able to either disassociate the work from the creator or it simply doesn't give a shit.
FWIW I'm looking forward to the show; the movies left out a lot of interesting back stories and the acting from many of the child actors wasn't the best. There's lots upon which things can be improved by HBO.
What makes you think the child actors for the new show would be any better? The acting of the core trio was already very good for their respective ages. It's also incredibly lucky that none of them went insane halfway through the series and ended up getting themselves into twenty different controversies. I would say that the chances of catching lightning in a bottle twice in that regard are very slim. It's much more likely that the new child actors are either worse or end up cracking under the pressure or both.
To be honest, I would be much more excited about the new series if it was animated. At least then it would stand up as its own unique adaptation, allowing us to see this story in a way that we haven't already seen it. Also the world of Harry Potter is just begging to be animated anyway. Plus, then you could cast adult voice actors to play the kids and they could simply evolve their voices over time. Instead, we're just getting the same kind of adaptation that we've already gotten but with more this time.
Best case scenario, it's just more of the same and there's nothing exciting about that. More likely scenario, it's worse than the original and they ruin the lives of a bunch of kids by disrupting their childhood and putting them into the spotlight at way too young of an age because they don't take all of the precautions as they did with the original cast to keep them in school and to try and help them live normal lives.
@@hdns4 "Cracking up under the pressure"? 😂
What are you talking about?
It's clear you hold the movies in high esteem ("lightning in a bottle"?), which is fine, but objectively there is a lot of room for improvement.
Not least of these things is the acting, as I've said. This in turn could significantly enhance the cogency of several character relationships, perhaps Harry & Ginny most of all.
The extra time the long form format may also allow Ginny's character, with the right actor, to be fleshed out; for example showing her agency by winning the Quidditch cup in his absence etc etc.
Additionally several interesting plot points & character backgrounds were given short shrift in the movies - or altogether omitted - that could now be given a chance to breathe.
Just off the top of my head these include: the mystery around the Half Blood Prince's identity and details of his life (which, given he was an eponymous character in part 6, was a strange omission in the first place); the damning revelations in Rita Skeeter's book; Voldemort's mother.
And they're just from the last 2 books; there's so many more examples too. The entire story might be almost unrecognizable due to the longer format.
No one's taking away the movies from you. This'll just be different and, IMO, has the potential to be better.
@@DarrenH001 What makes you think I hold the movies in high esteem? By catching lightning in a bottle twice, I meant finding some decent child actors and then managing to not ruin their lives, which is something that Hollywood has done countless times. Hell, it seems like one of the biggest reasons that it didn't happen with the Harry Potter movies was Chris Columbus's involvement at the start. He reportedly pushed pretty hard to make sure that the kids didn't have their lives disrupted too much. And I don't believe he's ever explicitly said it, but it doesn't take much imagination to conclude that this is likely because of what he saw happen to Macaulay Culkin. I don't have high hopes that a bunch of Warner-Discovery producers will have the same level of care.
I enjoy the movies, but I couldn't care less about a new adaptation. In fact, that's exactly the problem. I literally don't care about seeing this story adapted the same way again. And a lot of other people clearly share that sentiment. You clearly don't, and that's fine. I hope the series is good and that you enjoy it. For a lot of us though, rebooting a series that ended only thirteen years ago feels like a really pathetic cash grab. And the way I see it, even if it all goes perfectly and it's a good series and they manage to not ruin the lives of a bunch of children, all we get out of it just another live action adaptation. To me, that's simply not worth it.
@@hdns4 TBF by the time this new series wraps, if it gets that far, it'll be at least 21 years since the films finished, 31 since their debut, likely much more given it's taking HBO 2 years per season for CGI-heavy shows. So it'll be for a whole new generation.
And hopefully they'll enjoy it just as much as you enjoyed the movies, if not more 😄
Really sad to see jk Rowling get handed the whole world for her book series only to turn around and use her platform almost exclusively for hate, she must be miserable
you either die a hero.......
Ursula K LeGuin had her number from day one.
"Ethically mean-spirited" is how she described the books.
They're shite.
@@mattgilbert7347 thank you for this, I did not know Ursula commented on Mr Galbraith's toilet paper.
@@jesipohl6717 Ha! Good one. Although TP is, at least, useful....
JK Rowling should keep her mouth shut
Instead she should buy the weekly planet and make herself the third host
To bore everyone to sleep with her bigtory.
Wait she already hasn’t? I just thought she sold the rights for films, shows and video games to WB where she gets a portion of the profits along with still retaining the book rights
I think if she sells it off, it is her bowing to her haters. I mean she did sort of dump on the series with cursed play and fantastic flops, but will wb do anybetter? It's just sad. she said she would leave it alone after the 2nd Hallows movie. It should've just stayed there.
As for Daniel being grateful or not, it's not about that. It's about being able to politely disagree without turning on one another for clout. It's all so childish.
Bella L
Questioning someone's right to exist isn't childish
Actually the bad guy in the Fantastic Beasts is trying to stop Hitler.
I'm pretty sure those movies have been erased from existence
Hearing someone, who's job is to be online, say someone else is chronicly online is hilarious 😅
I fundamentally disagree with Mason, I think normal people would react to a tv show of HP like, “what? Why?” because the movie versions are already beloved and ingrained in so many people’s minds so why would anyone care about a new, and probably worse version
I still feel a lot people who have ethically problems with more harry potter if that happened (viewers as well as original cast members) , yeah sure, she isn't actuelly getting anymore money and has no influence over but she has basically just been pre-paid for it all.
i didn't read or watch any of these
im sorry.....always thought HP is horseshit and i never understood the appeal. its fucking boring.
Honestly, you say they can’t make anymore live action stuff, but why can’t they? Just make it a completely different adventure, no relation to anyone we know, and be original. The video games, although had some cameos/familiar names, was separate from what we know. Just do that.
Regardless of her opinions i don’t think it would be good to sell off her original vision to a soulless corporation that will milk it for a century. Even if it’s garbage.
1. I'd heard the story of cursed child sucks anyway.
2. I wouldn't watch anything nowadays that's a direct adaptation of any of her writing.
3. Regardless of Rowling there's still a lot of problems with the text itself, i.e. the slavery allegory with house elves and goblins being anti-semetic stereotypes.
4. The issue at the moment is that it feels like any support of the franchise is directly putting money in a very vocal transphobe's pocket, and the solution to that is not to make her one of the richest people on the planet. That money comes from what WB thinks they will make of the franchise, its technically just an upfront payment.
I feel the only way I could ever return to the franchise is if she were to give it away for free, which is obviously never going to happen and probably shouldn't.
She didn’t invent goblins, and the fact you see them as anti semetic tells me a lot about your world vieuw. How you see Jews.
@sit-insforsithis1568 I'm Jewish but sure I guess I'm the anti-semitic one for calling out anti-semitism when I see it?
@@forgedenigma u see yourself as a goblin then ? Lmao
@@sit-insforsithis1568some people can read into subtext. Just cause you can't doesn't make everyone else dumb.
*or*
Movie studios could make some original content and create new franchises.
Man, i hope so.
it sucks either way
@@jimmjimms what does?
Mr Galbraith has lost the plot, taking away his toys us fir the best, not sure he should get much money for it, if anything he's divided the fanbase and left the IP left valuable then at the start. Just hard facts.
0:25 😂
I love you guys but you’re clearly not HP fans. I think lots of people would be interested in seeing a more faithful retelling of the books.
I don’t rock with anything JK has said in the past 13 years, but those books are a masterpiece and deserve a better adaptation.
You are correct we neither like the hypocrit Mr. Galbraith nor his work after seeing it all comes from a place of sexism and classism.
I like that this community is so nice. (The weekly planet community). Just good blokes
Horrendous thumbnail
Seeing what Disney did with Star Wars is enough to say please no. Keep an author involved.
Lol
I gotta say idgaf about Harry potter anymore. Just leave it alone the movies are super overrated but we had nothing else at the time. And they tried to create the fantastic beasts trilogy and look how bad that failed with jk leading it. Also keep jk Rowling away cause she's a terf that even the OG actors don't like.
books exist because of J.K Rowling
(but the world does not recognize)
If Jk Rowling didn't exist, there wouldn't be books either
If Jk Rowling didn't exist, there wouldn't be books either
I'd like to see another more consistent and faithful adaptation, but I don't really see the point, and I certainly wouldn't be eagerly anticipating it. The movies are the definitive adaptation and now Rowling has tainted everything, I just don't see it being a flagship franchise anymore
@@mariabulat1698and she created her own downfall. I wasn't even saying if she didn't exist just the fact she destroyed her legacy by crying about trans people even still to this very day so her work will be forgotten by time sooner rather than later. + Yeah if jk didn't exist neither would the books but that ain't a problem cause better stuff can be made by better people cope harder terf.
The TV show is going to be huge. JKR is standing up for women’s rights which has somehow made her the bad person in this whole thing? Anyone who thinks people won’t watch Harry Potter because they’re changing actors, who were barely decent for the most part, is quite delusional.
Cause she's a terf. don't be gaslighting people.
No she isn't.

They were masterpieces when I was 13. Have you tried reading them as a grown up?
@@RileyDia yep, read em as a kid, now I listen to them on audiobook. Still masterpieces. I don’t consider myself a Potterhead either. Zero interest in seeing Potterworld.
