It's a harry potter thread get in here

Why didn't the "wizards" just cast themselves out of the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises? Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though

"No!" The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

>Putting a racemixer first
Ya dun goofed

How would you stop a rapist in the harry potter world? think about it you could use the freezing spell to stop them or just summon ropes, then have your way with them, cast the memory wipe spell, then accio cum to get rid of the evidence.

Heck it's probably a hazing ritual to join the frat to take the virginity of a first year girl, everyone would get assigned one and would have to bring back some of their hair as proof. Then the second part of the ritual would be to make a polly juice potion with the hair hand have all the existing members run a train on you.

harry potter 1 is 20 years old

Exactly we watched those movies as kids. The books and movies are for children.

The only people who want to talk about them are children and weird aspy adult babies. If anyone asks you 'what house' are you just say adult the look on their face is always priceless. I used to work at a bookstore and more than half the staff was obsessed with Harry Potter it was fucking cringe. I'm talking the types of people who will read 8 books and thousands of pages about wizards and magic potions but refuse to read a 100 page essay by Huxley

"No!"

>Don't read books that remind you of your childhood wonder and excitement
>Read books that will make you depressed about your current life and the world you live instead
I'm not saying it's not a bit sad, but those people are probably doing the right thing by themselves.

Alternatively you could view it as

>read children books to keep you in a state of perpetual childhood. Aka Peter Pan syndrome.
>Read books that challenge you on an intellectual or philosophical so that you can continue to grow as a well rounded mature adult

It's definitely sad. Also if Huxley or challenging literature makes someone depressed they literally are a mental infant.
