@Cmd_Smiles @PotterWorldW Nooo lol. They are still boomers…

@PotterWorldW I see a generational shift. The Dursleys in the movies were boomers and these Dursleys are Millennials

Completely different vibe with the Dursleys now compared to the Dursleys back then.

This is not how you stand up for trans people. It really doesn’t help the cause to make trans people oppositional to fun creative media that has not explicit anti trans messaging wiring the actual work. Just call out Rowling and her politics. Not the tv show that she didn’t write and that employs hundreds of people and brings generally apolitical joy to people. Trans people love Harry potter too… I get how it feels like you’re doing something progressive but you’re not…

You ain’t gonna convince me a very mid-tier (if I’m generous) mystery book is worth expanding into 8 episodes of television. But of course, the stans and their subreddits are gonna eat this shit up and feed the pockets of more anti-trans rhetoric. (Again, kids innocent tho)

@TTPDoftheNorth @ofantastic Original Moana is quite literally CGI digital animation… being shot on film has nothing to do with it. 😝

@ofantastic It might be that the original movies were shot on film and the new show is done digitally. I think that negatively impacts things like color and clarity and saturation.

i can’t explain it, but THIS is my problem with all these remakes.

@ofantastic It’s just psychological familiarity. Thats literally it. This new harry potter looks really solid. live action Moana not so much lol.

@SeverusChud This actress is quite literally an British citizen and a child… you guys are hilariously stupid

This is so uncanny. Hermione is meant to be an English child. HBO seems eager to have the blonde blue eyed children call her mudblood when mudblood referred to her being a half wizard parent and not her race. How could JK Rowling let this happen man.

@maelan_sdmr @AxelTalksFilm youtu.be/8mEyX_mhP14?si…

@AxelTalksFilm Was it slicked back in the book?

if they kept one thing, they should've kept the slicked back draco hair 😭

@maelan_sdmr @AxelTalksFilm Watch Loxx Pratt in the new BBC remake of the Lord Of The Flies. He’s perfect casting.

@NexusPointNews I think this image is probably ai… Loxx Pratt is about a white and blue eyed as you can get. He was really good as the evil leader kid in the recent bbc version of lord of the flies. He’s really well cast for Malfoy.

Draco Malfoy in the ‘HARRY POTTER’ movie vs. the series.

@larsinthewoods @Mschatnoir If that’s you pictured in your profile I can assure you, you’re not “pale white” you are pale peachy pink/yellow color… Pale Asian skin tone is much more “white” it’s still not actual white like bleached paper white. No one is without some sort of melanin deficiency illness…

@willibitting @Mschatnoir I am Norwegian. Very ethnically Norwegian. I can assure you we turn pasty, pale and white during the winter! 🤣 I am not being "a racist whining bitch", I am being an ethnic Norwegian. I know my color. I know my people. Do you think my people does not exist? You're racist! 😎

I wonder..what the race swappers would have thought of this Snape? because it's almost never a SE Asian....why is that DEI people? huh? he actually looks more like 'snape' should tbh

@larsinthewoods @Mschatnoir Europeans skin tone is not usually pasty pale white. It’s usually pink to tan. Asian skin tone is actully more true white color to brown as a spectrum… this is all meaningless tho. You’re just being a racist whining bitch…

@Mschatnoir I'd prefer this over what they went with. No, the books does not list him as any kind of Asian, he's White. But this version could've pulled the "pasty and pale" look off. SE Asians does have a different skin tone than us Westerners, but they definitely can be very pale.

That would have been a cool swap too. Why are you setting up one minority getting a chance as a detriment to other minorities? Why do you think this is a zero sum game. Harry Potter famously has a lot of issues with how it handled Asian characters broadly. There is a lot to criticize, before knowcking down other minorities…

It’s not an strawman, you’re using that incorrectly. I’m not presenting your argument fallaciously, I’m asking a clarifying question. Also you never addressed my earlier comment. You made bullshit claims and I called you out on it. And asked you t reframe your argument based on new accurate information. That info being that most people on SNAP have jobs.

@willibitting @TrevorFiive @abbottnation @RedLineReportt That is a real nice strawman you just made and started punching. I'm saying Soldiers need more food. More protein and calories. More EVERYTHING. Because Civilians 9 times out of 10 aren't as active. And soldiers don't have the option to choose a light day.

🚨JAW-DROPPING moment as Steven Crowder stuns liberal when he exposes the reality of SNAP. She admits he's RIGHT. "Our soldiers get MREs and they have to pay for them. Why should somebody able-bodied, choosing not to work, get ANYTHING better than our soldiers?" CROWDER: Snacks and treats? You say 'choice,' here are the choices...pre-filled pumpkin buckets of Halloween candy. How do we tell low-income Americans they should fund that? LIBERAL: A lot of them have children. CROWDER: So do the people working who pay taxes. LIBERAL: OK. That's a fair point... CROWDER: The obesity rate for low-income women not on SNAP is 40%. You know what it is for those on SNAP? 57%. Working class Americans with kids, struggling, are paying to make other people FATTER. What's your response to this......??👀 MAKE THIS GO VIRAL ON 𝕏. LET’S GO 👏

Um what… Tolkien didn’t write more stores because he died you insufferable moron… he literally was writing new additions to the stories up until the day he died… and then his son took over writing even more… there are A LOT of Tolkien stories that have not yet been explored in movies. Like way to prove you’re not a genuine fan lol.

La trilogía de The Lord Of The Rings es una de las mejores de la historia del cine. Tolkien no escribió la secuela porque sabía que era una pésima idea. Pero en Hollywood lo van a hacer, solo para recaudar un poco más. Bancarrota creativa total.

@autumnsonatta Fans. Are you dumb?

Quién carajo va a esperar más de dos años por una temporada, catorce años en total, por una historia que ya se leyó Y YA SE VIO

@Aiamjayboy So you aren’t a fan then? Barto is canonically there. We didn’t learn this in the manga for 700 chapters but that’s irrelevant. He was there. His watching of Luffy escape death is what informed him to become a pirate.

WHAT IS BARTOLOMEO DOING THERE? he's still 700 episodes away from appearing.

@RobertlewisIR @LostHistory9 He’s written on multiple shows throughout his very long career. Moreover, his role is clearly more focussed on being a Tonkin expert and is not the main credited writer. Also, Petter Jackson is directly involved in this which is exactly what the fans want. Yall are dumb…

@LostHistory9 I’d trust him as a continuity supervisor or fact checker. Maybe. As a writer, though? What’s he ever written that would even get a passing grade on a middle school writing assignment?

I will concede that Colbert is somewhat knowledgeable about Middle-earth. HOWEVER, I do not want that talentless left wing propagandist anywhere near a project involving the Lord of the Rings. Miss me with that shit.

@Blacknatwatch @LostHistory9 This is false….

@LostHistory9 Especially when it's pure fan fiction. None of this has any basis in Tolkien's work.

@LostHistory9 LOTR is unironically left wing anti-war and anti-capitalist propaganda… while Tolkien wasn’t a socialist he despised industrialization and militarism and fascism which he himself fought in WWI.

Literally none of this will matter if the show comes out and it’s enjoyable to watch…. Snape is largely in the background fo most of the story as just a brooding antagonist for the main three—Harry, Ron, and Hermione. If those three do their role right the show will work and only the most racist morons will give a shit about Papa Essidiue being Snape. Also Papa is a brilliant actor who gives amazing performances, in particular for intense brooding characters. He’s going to do an amazing job. Everyone just needs to chill tf out…

The left isn't going to watch because JK Rowland is transphobic, and the right won't watch it because they're racists. This is quite literally a show for nobody.

I’m sorry but you’re just acting butthurt like a fucking moron… he’s also a screenwriter, and not the only one working on the project, and this project is explicitly being developed with Peter Jackson who all the fans want. Unlike the Amazon series which wa made without Peter Jackson’s involvement. You’re clearly just not a real lotr fan…

Having “Tolkien scholars” in the writers room didn’t stop Rings of Power from being complete dogwater. Stephen Colbert being some Tolkien encyclopedia doesn’t give him credence to craft an actual SEQUEL to LotR. We’re not doing this argument.
