re: Harry Potter movies and JK Rowling plagiarized Young Sherlock Holmes (1985)

There stories are not a near exact match and the main similarities are b/c both are set at British boarding schools.

LOL. Main characters who all look alike, reside at a boarding school, and find themselves attempting to solve a mystery regarding an evil cult that may or may not be led by a school professor...a cult that uses "magic".

Sure...no similarities there.

Chris Columbus saying he was inspired by YSH means dick b/c that was his only experience w/a British boarding school

Wrong. Chris Columbus wrote the screenplay for YSH. Chris Columbus directed the first two Harry Potter movies. It sure as hell is an interesting connection, bruh.

Things like a teacher secretly being a bad guy or a school bully being a complete prick to the hero for seemingly no reason are common as all get out tropes in fiction and are in no way original to YSH

---

Except when Chris Columbus is involved with both movies and admitted that he filmed Harry Potter by borrowing heavily from YSH.

Man, you're stupid.

The only thing missing from your try hard click bait OP was tossing in MIND BLOWN into the title.

Damn! I forgot to do that! Thanks for reminding me...
