rzal Posted April 13, 2023 Posted April 13, 2023 I hope they will start with short seasons cause I don't want a bunch of filler in the first seasons and bunch of stuff getting cut when they get to longer books I'll be seated regardless even though I haven't read the books since I was like 14 and never even watched last 2 movies nn.

This is obviously a cash grab for the studio and there's no love behind it. Like, what is her excuse to remake it this time when she can't even finish the prequel? The GoT spinoff at least have passionate people behind who want to redeem the franchise, including the author. Of course there is no guarantee but we also don't know who the show runners are and if the series will be more like HotD or anything else. HotD is also a cash grab to safe the IP because of GoT ending, the same as the Harry Potter series because of the Fantastic Beasts flop. A studio doesn't have any love for an IP (definitely not Warner with their mismanagement), only for the money behind the IP. The people (producers, directors, writers, actors, all other workers) will bring love to such a project. I love the movies and books passionately and the more I think about it, the more I'm existed for a whole new generation to discover the world again in a new format (when it's good), while the movies stay as the legacy (and not be destroyed by a Cursed Child movie). Even when I'm definitely not a fan of JKR anymore and I would like to exclude her from this, her ideas for the movies (Alan Rickman casting, British actors, filming in GB ...) were not bad. But please keep David Yates out of this ... locked away. Edited April 13, 2023 by zuper

Anyway the movies are obviously way too soon to be remade, the Fantastic Beasts spin off was underperforming so this is obviously the best route to take. We will get to see heaps of cut content from the books that didn't make the movies. Bigger budget (particular for the early movies which didn't have as big budgets). Like what exactly is the problem? Don't watch if it bothers you so much your precious movies will still be there for you to enjoy. What are you talking about? The first two HP movies were by no means low budget. The first film cost $125M in 2001’s dollars, and the second cost $100M in 2002’s dollars; Game of Thrones season 8 spent a total of $90M so no we won’t be getting a bigger budget.

I never said “low budget” I said the earlier movies didn’t have as big budgets Im not sure what game of thrones has to do with anything, or why the budget of a TV series is economically comparable to a box office movie to begin with (movies generally always have higher budgets than tv series for many reasons) Why are you arguing with me budgets anyway it wasn’t even my contingent with what I was saying

The goblins were described as clever with swarthy faces and long fingers and feet. How is that antisemitic?? If you wanna blame anyone for racism/antisemitism blame the makeup department in the movies Edited April 14, 2023 by AccioMiley
MAXIMO Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 If they want to actually reboot it, they better not use the iconic music and the aesthetics from the original.

Cleanromantic Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 A reboot this soon doesn't make any sense. The movies still look great. What they should do is set the show after the events of the books, ideally from 1997 to 2008 (I think setting it in the 2010s would make the franchise lose its magic because the world is too technologically advanced that it seems like magic has no place in it ). They can cast poc actors as students without significant backlash, use the sets from movies 3 to 6, and have easter eggs about the original Trio and the rest of the supporting characters. Hagrid and McGonagal can be recast as they're probably the only professors people care about, and the rest of the teaching staff can all be new characters.
Arcadius Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 Not 16 pages, y'all about to hate watch this show into breaking all kinds of streaming records.
Marla Singer Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 Not sure what to think of this. They should just tell a different story that's also based in the wizarding world, instead of just adapting the books and movies to a TV show.

poki Posted December 2, 2023 Posted December 2, 2023 Interesting turn of events from LEGO. Apprently the current Harry Potter line is over and the 2024 sets so far are just some fill sets. They are probably about to do another reboot in-line with this show.

poki Posted December 2, 2023 Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) Also the reason I post LEGO Harry Potter updates here is because HP is one of LEGO's most iconic themes and in their top 5 best sellers each year. We often discover story beats from LEGO sets (Avatar 2, MCU, Sonic 3 is the latest one) so whatever LEGO has in store for late 2024 onwards, will 100% be correlated with this show.

Happylittlepunk Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 Once we know more info about this the fanbase might switch for now the base is still very mix about this. If they add a lot more background info about Harry parents, the original order of the phoenix, death eaters and Voldemort and other more side characters within hogwarts this might actually work. Hogwarts legacy added a lot background for hogsmead, and the sorouding areas.
