From the once-in-a-millennium mind of Authoress J.K. Rowling...
I'M ACTING
>>222943861>GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODS
>>222943861Is this a Trump allegory
What is up with these tryhard wand motions? I bet they're going to make coonmione some once-in-a-century intuitive master or some shit.
>>222943861Am I crazy or didn't this come out in like the early 2000's?
Are they supposed to jerk the wands off or something now?>>222943949It's a soulless remake my man, the early 2000s were full of shitty fantasy series one-offs.
>>222943861>It's ma'am!
everyone in this version looks retardedlike a down syndrome version of the 2000s movies
>don't like the tone, the new scenes look out of place, nigga snape is extremely off putting, Lithgow doesn't fell like Dumbledore, he doesn't have the energy for it and they are already making the new Hermione too prominent and more annoying than the real one. This is going to be a disaster.
Bros. I'm hyped. I think they nailed it.
>>222943948ya bes reckanize black exalense witeboi
>>222943948>griffindor rule???do they mean Griffidors Rule or Griffindor Rules? “griffindor rule” wtf does that even mean
>>222944054They made all the boys look like they/them lesbians what the fuck.
>>222944041Lithgow kinda looks the part but that might just be the meter long beard.
>"HOW DARE YOU STAND WHERE HE STOOD???!!">Harry screamed racistically while pulling out a glock and magdumping Snape>Snape swiftly and darkly stretched his legs and dodged all the bullets>"ayo, you using my own spell against me, nigga?"
>>222944054The whole thing feels like horror. Every time I watch one of these videos, I'm waiting for a screamer.
>>222943948she is constantly described as the "cleverest witch of her age" so she is well above average in ability
How the fuck do all of these look a thousand times uglier than the old actors? I thought Brits were supposed to have crooked teeth and be ugly af and not Americans.
>>222944084Rule Griffindor maybe?But you're correct that it's stupid either way
>>222944016The color grading of this is just godawful. Even worse than the Yates movies. Is there one thing these fags got right? Because I can't seem to think of anything.
>>222943948>>222944016KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUTSU
>>222943948You didn't grow up in a school where kids were doing Naruto hand signs and shit? Niggas love hand signs.
>>222944090they can make basically any white guy over 50 "look" the part with a big fake white beard and wizard hat, but I think too many people have richard harris and/or michael gambon cemented in the role in their heads for anyone else to "feel" like dumbledore.
>>222944130Dysgenics are massively fucking people up in bongland but at least they aren't speaking German.
>>222944054Who is this even for? The 'woke' hate performative representation and in some cases the changes themselves are racist. Wait til Hermonine gets called a mudblood this time. And also how a majority of Syltherin are Hindu, that's going to piss off the woke crowd too. The exteremists on the right will hate the changes too and be so upset that a black person exists in the universe that they'll make 15 youtube videos hating on the show without watching, instead reacting to clips uploaded to Shitter. And them everyone else will either think they trailer is soulless shit and not watch it or they'll watch the original films instead. None of this is even factoring in the amount of people who hate JK Rowling. Just...why? Did WB want to kill Harry Potter to attack Rowling's bank account?
>>222944158Found Gambon to be a bit meh. Harris was perfect. But maybe it was the direction. Actors don't choose how to play their characters.
>>222944158Yeah Gambon was shit as Dumbledore though. People are just nostalgic for him.
>>222944072>some tasteless foreigner from belgium thinks it looks goodLOL
>>222944158Lithgow can certainly portray Dumbledors mischievous side but when it comes to having a commanding presence he will be shit out of luck
Did they go out of their way to cast the least memorable kids they could find aside from the blonde arian on the left
>>222944130Casting has been fucked on both sides of the Atlantic for years now.
>>222944184Was Gambon the one who bellowed calmly?
I love this new Harry Potter setting
>>222944167Fuck off tranny. You lost. The show will do well.
I'm so glad I'll get to shitpost with you about this shitshow. I love you guys.
>>222944130>>222944202You had the same thoughts about Holland and Zendeya when you first saw them.
>>222944198Possibly, what I wanna know is how a seven year old is in the same class as Harry
>>222943861i actually think they nailed virtually all the casting, except for snape obviously. made even worse by the fact that adam driver is the perfect snape and he has already been a regular on an HBO series
>>222943948Remember when the reddit tourists claimed she was white and then white passing
>>222944232Fuck off nigger, zendaya is a ugly mutt that cannot act and tom has eaten more dick than his wife.
>>222944232Both are shit castings yeah.
>>222944229Kill yourself crypto tranny lover > Trans people exist. I have no desire for them not to exist; indeed, I wish them safety, happiness and health. However, 'existence' does not, and should not, mean the violation of other people's right to privacy, dignity and freedom of speech, or the reconfiguration of society to indulge a fallacy.> Nothing's changed. I was being honest about how I feel about an individual trans woman I know, who was a gay man pre-transition, and who I met for the first time post-transition. Objectively speaking, she has physical characteristics that make it fairly obvious she wasn't born female, but she's a gentle, funny person I've never referred to as anything other than 'she' and 'her'. I find it perfectly easy to reconcile my fond feelings towards her, and my experience of her as someone with very female-coded energy, with a belief that she hasn't literally changed sex (and incidentally, she doesn't believe she's literally changed sex, either).
>>222944170harris was good, but his dumbledore was all aura farming. gambon i think brought a bit more life to the character. i can't imagine what the battle in the ministry scene in OotP would have been like with a would-have-been 77 year old harris.
>>222944147AMATERASU
>>222943948Surprised she's not holding it sideways
>wah wah race swappingWhy aren't people more livid at how fucking boring this all is. You have an entire planet and centuries of lore before the Harry Potter series. And yet we're sticking to the same thing because...? Like does the cunt Rowling need to pass away before WB gets the rights to make actual spinoffs?
>>222944197He's too old, will die/decline in health before the series reaches Half-blooded Prince
>>222944231This, kek. I couldn't give a rat's ass about the show. I'm more excited about the bants here and the insane amount of lefty cope that we'll get>>222944229A turd's a turd you tard.>>222944243she ain't from dem streetz ya kno
>>222944239>adam driver is the perfect snape Fucking pleb retard kekof course a tumblr lefty think brownoine is good
>>222944281They technically can't adapt any fanfics, it's a legal minefield.
>>222944197lithgow is capable of having great commanding presence thobeit.
>>222944282How much would you be willing to bet Lithgow will sell the rights to his likeness and just be replaced by AI?
>>222944289>so unspeakably correct that other anons can only sperg out without offering a rebuttalgod i love being right
>>222944297I'm not even asking for that, though it's sad to say there's probably smut formerly on wattpad that had better writing than The Cursed Child. Like apparently she wrote about a Japanese wizarding school. Just have a film set there. Or at one of the two schools from Goblet of Fire.
>>222944299Right, I forgot he was in that. Last show I watched with him was Third Rock from the Sun. Still I don't know if he can actually pull off the more serious moments.
>>222944286>>222944297>i don't care about this slop>now check out these trailers I took the time to encode correctly so they wouldn't look like shit in webm formlol lmao
>>222944281I would watch a "boring" (aka traditional) harry potter with accurate characters. I would not watch an "exciting" (aka revisionist and subversive) harry potter with race swapped characters.
havent been able to watch the trailer yet, how was the music? music in the OG movies was 11/10 and carried them hard
>>222944379It's made by one of Hans Zimmer's interns instead of John Williams. What do you think?
>>222944357Nigga it takes like two seconds, stfu. ffmpeg does everything for me, I put it in two-pass mode.>>222944344Rowling is a hack, though. And she's an evil TERF so she really shouldn't contribute anything to HP lore anyway !!1!No but really JKR is a terrible writer.>>222944379It's crap
>>222944390Is that a 6/10 where it's serviceable but you'll forget it after a few days?
>>222944401I watched the trailer an hour ago and I've already forgotten the music
99% of /tv/ is going to watch it anyway
>>222944423Almost like i have to watch something to know if i like it or not
>>222944423we all read the books and watched the films so I will probably pass on it
>>222944423cope. it won't get renewed for a third season (the second season being automatic before the series even airs, as is standard streaming practice even for obvious floppy turds like this for some reason)
I don't think they have the balls to hang Snape from a tree
>>222944507>it won't get renewed for a third seasoncope
>>222944054Who are you quoting?
>>222944560>unironic "no u"seethe and dilate, redditroon.
>>222944507You know thats not true
>>222944400dont call me nigga
>>222944507Pottertards are one of the most die hard fanbases out there
>>222944627>unironically thinking they'll cancel an adaptation of one of the world's most popular franchises that millennial losers will watch religiouslykill yourself, retard
>>222943861oh man this shit is gonna fucking suck
>>222944651Doesn't mean the series can't flop like Magical Beasts did
Looks good desu
Why even remake this if you're just going for the same exact tone, look and feel anyways?If I didn't know who the characters were supposed to be, I'd have just assumed it was a spinoff.
i want Harry Potter in an adult and grim dark universe with sex and gore
>>222944708Not the same lol
>>222944734No but it's not a guarantee either. The series can easily fail
>>222944756I just dont see it happening
>>222944765Meanwhile I don't expect anything even remotely approaching quality from these retards. Snape as a nigger should clue you in on what their priorities are.
>>222944756the series can have terrible ratings and they're still going to finish it so people buy merch and go to their shitty theme parks
>>222944084>>222944133https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule,_Britannia!I'm not even British, how do you guys not know this phrase
I know they're british but goddamn those are some ugly fucking kids.
Does anyone here actually pay for HBO Max? kek.
Why does harry look like a 40 year old dyke?
>>222944612Not really. The oldest Zoomers are from 1997, and they were alive when the final books and movies came out, but the majority of Zoomers born in 2000 and onwards were also too young to experience the midnight book releases or the intense, real-time cultural monoculture of the movies that millennials lived through in the late 1990s and 2000s. When they became of reading-age, they didn't read Harry Potter while growing up. They read Percy Jackson, The Hunger Games and they grew up watching MCU since Iron Man. Also, Gen Z is the most socially conscious, self-aware generation, I have no doubt that Rowling's antics and her chronically online behavior has alienated an entire generation who were already detached and apathetic towards her work.Harry Potter has always been a millennial phenomenon. It was never a zoomer phenomenon.
>>222944016IT'S SO FUCKING DARK
>>222944789True, I was more thinking about whether people will actually watch and enjoy the series, compared to when suits pull the plug.
>>222943861>mfw no face
IDon'tGiveAShitAboutHarryPotter
>>222944832Which is almost impressive considering those massive glowing windows.
>>222944793>Rule, Brittania!Ok now explain >Gryfindor Rule!phrase isn’t even structured the same
>>222944638it absolutely is true. this show is not receiving any positive hype at all. the right hates it because it's brownwashed, and the left and the LGPTQueers hate it because of rowling (and because deep down they don't like brownwashing any more than the right).the most recent trailer has been out for hours and hasn't even broken 1 million views yet. even the previous trailer had almost 5 million but even then was heavily ratio'd by dislikes. HBO knows they have a stinker on their hands because they've already been telling their brownwashed diversity quota actors to play the race card in defense.
>>222944700>actually defending this globoshlomo diversislop>projecting xir's own desire to kill itselfclassic.
Which way /tv/?
>>222944921>telling their brownwashed diversity quota actors to play the race card in defense.Aren't those standing orders given to all diversity hires no matter the success?
>>222944724maybe check out john constantine? there's a whole "grimdark magic world" side of DC comics.
>>222944952Top one really looks gloomy and the tiles make think of a kitchen not a castle.
>>222943861This wasn't in the book at all, what the hell is it? Please tell me that's not supposed to be the troll. Jesus Christ
>>222944952>dark blue room can’t see shitvs>magical wondrous palaceI bet trannies are shitting their assplugs out right now with absolute glee at how shitty the new HBO one looks. Everything’s blue and you can’t see shit, the trans-jewish epitome of art.
>>222943948There’s a lot of cherry picking in this thread but I will admit I also noticed this part and thought she looked goofy as hell
>>222944921Harry Potter fans exist in a bubble outside of those
>>222944921Holy cope
>>222943861>I JUST CAME OUT AS TRANS AND I GOT A NEW NINTENDO SWITCH BLACK LIVES MATTER!!!!!Why did they make this troll look like a trans woman?
>>222944952Truly the same thing but worse. This series is a direct downgrade.
>>222944716They’re adding a bunch of filler and rewriting it to suit modern sensibilities >>222944724Perfect, high chances it is exactly that
>>222944991reddit tier oh my shock comment
>>222944952bottom is peak comfy. the hall is full of life, everyone is looking around and chatting, the new students are gazing in awe at their surroundingstop looks like an angry jewish school marm escorting the broken children from their boarding cells to the dreary mess hall. it's dimly lit, everyone is staring straight ahead, the children don't even look up at the interesting floating candles (it's so poorly lit they probably don't even notice them)
>>222945034>no rebuttal, just seething projection from a gaped marketer
>>222944952Why do they have a bunch of LED lights on the table in the new one
>>222943861>hairy, slimy, blind, herbivorous trollwhat on earth are they doing
>>222945080to light the actor’s faces because it’s dark as shit in there
>>222945075Learn how to greentext
>>222945038Rowling told her tranny sockpuppet on X (the parody account Dr. Dame Katy Denise) where she LARPs as a troon that he could play the troll a long time ago. It was a big controversy in the terminally online world since woke media sources thought the account was an actual tranny activist instead of a parody of gross troons. The troll definitely seems to be modeled on the popular troon basedjACK, someone knew what they were doing.
>>222945080to light the actor's faces because their skin is dark as shit in there
>>222945128>gaped marketer projects again
>>222944110This made me laugh so much I’m unironically screenshotting it to send to my irl friend. This is the highest honor for a post
do young people even like harry potter? or is this made for 30+ manchildren?
>>222943861What the fuck is this shit?!
this shit is utterly fucking soulless
>>222944952top is still dark despite hundreds of candles and lights
>>222945080merch sales and magic is illegal btw
>>222944243if you told me she was Italian I'd believe you
>>222944941>thinking I'm defending or want to watch this slop because I predict it's not going to get cancellednice reading comprehension you fucking idiot
>>222944282>He's too old, will die/decline in health before the series reaches Half-blooded PrinceAt least they're keeping the spirit of the original series Dumbledore then
>>222945288Hermione rape fanfiction topped the New York Times bestseller list, obviously more millennials like it but it’s still hanging on
>>222944952Hogwarts in the first years is supposee to be a warm, welcoming place, so all that blue light is weird
>>222943861Oh, I get it. It's a tranny. Rowling's a genius.
WHY IS IT SO DARK
>>222944830Born in ‘98 here. I was a super big Harry Potter fan growing up but I can’t remember a single other kid in my class who read the books. I read them all in the 3rd/4th grade and I remember being teased for having such big books by other kids lol. You’re right about them being way more into Percy Jackson. I remember trying to read that after HP and I didn’t like it much
>>222945288It's not like they are putting much effort into it. Hbo slot filler.
>>222945595>WHY IS IT SO DARKmodern cinematography, please understand
>>222944231Same here Fren sending the love right back to you!
all of this looks like fucking shit
>>222945595This, I'm part of the minority that prefers the colorful and adventurous first movies instead of the angsty teenaged drama of the later ones.
>>222945732pretty sure most people prefer the earlier whimsical movies
>>222944232I still do. They both suck and are ugly. Especially Holland.
>>222945732I’m part of the minority that prefers making sandwiches using the middle parts instead of the crust ends
>>222944054>>222944039>>222944016>>222943948>>2229438610 whimsy
>>222945698It's the green screens too
>>222944379It’s the most generic trailer music ever. Like stock trailer music.
>>222943896>>222943948wtf she needs more makeup on her
>>222944110should have worked calmly in there somehow
Why does the cinematography looks so fucking bad
>>222944356watch blow out you fucking zoomer
