re: HBO Max announces upcoming Harry Potter series

I feel like we already had a pretty damn faithful adaptation (at least as faithful as you can get condensing a 600 page book into two hours). I'd much rather see a Tom Riddle origin story or a continuation that undoes the Cursed Child

with this format you can dedicate entire episodes to explore James, Lily, Snape, Severus, Lupin etc when they were students.
I'm really excited.

HBO will do it right
Ginny kills Voldemort, Snape admits he never actually cared that much for Hogwarts students, Harry embraces his madness and burns down Hogsmeade, and Lavender Brown ends up as Minister of Magic?

It's going to be pure woke trash and JK Rowling's status as a TERF will really set the trannies ablaze looking to trans whatever they can get their hands on.
These things are 100% certain:
1. The main character will be female. 100% chance of this happening. Race...50/50 white/non-white, but it will be female.
2. One of the supporting characters will be LGBTQ, most likely the most prominent supporting character.
3. One of the other supporting characters will be a prominent non-white if the main character isn't white.
4. Any white male character will be represented as either evil, weak, or a coward. They're the bad guy or the biggest coward if they're on the good guy side.

Yeah but an entire series of the Marauder years would be even better, including the first Wizarding War

Considering this is based on the books and it’s HBO I’m going to highly doubt this happens. Maybe a race swap or two but that’s it

It was a joke
I'm sure it'll be fine, but I can't imagine it's going to be anything the movies haven't already done barely a decade ago

It’s going to be extended versions of the movies with new actors. Same story.
Eh, that would be okay then.
As long as they stick to the story

Hermione will be race-swapped. That is 100% happening so everyone should just get used to it.

Guarantee this Harry Potter will focus on diversity and LGBTQABCXYZ++++++

She stood out in The Last of Us in just 1 episode.

The movies did a pretty good job of adapting the books considering the time limitations. All before the Halfblood Prince were damn-near perfect. From the Half-Blood Prince to the end, I could see a series really fleshing it out and being outstanding if done correctly.
Considering HBO's track record, I'll at least give it a chance.
