In some ways Frost is worse than Lithgow on this. Lithgow is pretending not to be aware; Frost is saying "yeah I'm aware of it all, it's all bad and I disagree with her vehemently, but I'm still being part of something that will make her money that she said she will use against trans people".
I just canβt see any positives in redoing this franchise? Maybe a new generation who didnβt grow up with original but itβs also on HBO not Disney. It seems like bad timing and purely a money-thing.
Itβs only because the original trinity of actors spoke out against JKRβs transphobic bullshit and sheβs so pissed about it sheβs making a new version with actors who will know their place, purely out of spite. Itβs a show made with hate that will be used to fund hate.
Even besides the JKR being a TERF stuff, it feels pointless. The original movies were already plenty accurate to the books and the cut content really didn't hurt much. Like is Hermione essentially being called "too woke" for being anti slavery really that essential for the plot like bruh π
this isnt news anyone but bigots care about and you know it. why are you so obsessed with questionable/problematic people and franchises? clicks and ragebait? thats your niveau? jfc...
Stings to see Lithgow assocaited with this series. I don't want Lord Farquaad to be associated with an actual fuckwad like JKR who uses her financial power to hurt marginalized people
I'd rather watch something that isn't ruining the lives of transgender folks than 'Harry Potter', which unfortunately, is the reality now to a horrible & disgusting author like J.K. Rowling
1-You leave every child actor in this production alone. They're here because of their parents and have no real say in the roles they're asked to perform.
2-The adults are a different story. They should absolutely know better than to perform work for a TERF.
And I want no statements made 'Oh I find X annoying' or 'Well at X age they should know better'.
Children in show-biz have no bodily autonomy. The best case scenario is someone on set makes sure they're getting their breaks, meals, and homework on time.
You've seen it before, focus on the adults
Rowling being a hateful nut aside, I'm not really sure why this project exists. Nick Frost as Hagrid is brilliant casting, though.
Lithgow as Dumbledore is surprising, cause Rowling used to be adamant about having only British actors. I guess her thinking *can* evolve on certain topics. π€
I guess they were won over by his work as Churchill.
As to why they're doing this, there was always eventually gonna be a market for a long format retelling that could cover all the stuff the films had cut out for time.

I have heard from the younger generation and a lot are ooking forward to It.
I think our generation will check it out as there will be many more scenes
Period.
I just don't want to put the energy to attack and instead put that energy for motivation for me to enjoy something...instead of being bored

J-FU-K Rowlin does including Harry Potter fuck her
The name of the character should be on the top, then below that have the two equivalent actors/actresses who will play or did play those roles.
yeah, this is peak Harry Potter alright.
(Also Judas rocking Priest, really Nick? Watching Hot Fuzz will never be the same, prick)
