First look at Draco Malfoy in HBO’s upcoming ‘HARRY POTTER’ series. Premiering this Christmas.
English
@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…
English
@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! 😎
English
@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…
English
@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.
English
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…
English
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.
English
@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.
English
🚨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.
English
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.
Español
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

The HARRY POTTER TV series won't have one season a year "For some of the bigger shows like Harry Potter, huge world-building shows, it would be nice to have those on an annual basis. But from a production point of view, it’s just not possible." - Casey Bloys
Español
@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.
English
WHAT IS BARTOLOMEO DOING THERE? he's still 700 episodes away from appearing.
English
@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…
English
@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?
English
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.
English
@LostHistory9 Especially when it's pure fan fiction. None of this has any basis in Tolkien's work.
English
@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.
English
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…
English
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.
Derek Anderson-The D.A.@derekbwriting
Let's be clear. There's a lot of issues with this HBO Harry Potter series. Extra unnecessary added details, pointless raceswaps of minor characters that I, like many other Potterheads, could have overlooked. But Black Snape is such an insulting slap in the face it's a 100% deal breaker.
English
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…
English
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.
English
@CinemaTweets1 He’s actually a Tolkien expert and a screenwriter. What more does he need? Also, he’s not the only screenwriter. He’s just one on the project.
English
Why is Stephen Colbert given the responsibility to write a new Lord of the Rings film? What am I missing- how is this happening? I have no opinion about Colbert on a personal level, I’m neutral, but what qualifies him to write this? Because he’s a massive LOTR fan? That’s it?
English
Quite literally for years until Emma Watson was cast many people thought her minor was a black girl because her skin color is never mentioned in the book only her dark brown kinky hair texture as her main defining feature… I believe the only physical description of her mine given in the first book is literally “bushy brown hair” and “large front teeth”… other than that she’s described as a know it all who may actually know it all…
It’s worth noting that because of this JK Rowling herself has had Hermiine always be played by a black woman in the stage play versions of cursed child….
Yall are just clearly not actual fans of Harry Potter. You’re just racists pos…
English
@dissidentwest She isn’t!!!!!!! lol it’s why I also have an issue with her casting.
English
Pretty sure Hermonie is also not described in the books as whatever this is.
ADONIS@adonispara
In J.K. Rowling's books, Snape is repeatedly described as having pale, sallow skin yet HBO decided to make him Black for some reason?
English
Idk why you’re assuming he will be th only black person at hogwarts. Also, even if he is, that still sets up interesting parallels between Harry and Voldemort that could be interesting. People forget by Harry potter is technically a period piece as well. It’s all set in the early 90s and there were (and still are) many aspects of racism within British society. And as the story progresses the whole point of snape’s character is that Harry misjudged Snape and even names his son after Snape to honor him. I’m not really understanding your criticism here… basically amounts to stories can’t be controversial in any way? Is that really what you want?
English
The series is gonna be about Harry being suspicious of and hating the only black teacher at Hogwarts. That’ll go swimmingly

@willibitting @SenouNatsuru52 @abbottnation @RedLineReportt Being a soldier means you are subject to PT that an average civilian isn't going to be forced to do. Any additional physical exercise increases the amount of calories you need. A regular civilian isn't forced to exercise or meet any physical standards the same way a soldier is.
English
What exactly do you mean by “going to need more”… every person needs food, water, and shelter to survive… this is just a part of the human condition. Can you tell me this: why do you people want poor people to die so bad?
And before you say it, most of the people who receive SNAP benefits do in fact work full time jobs, they just dont make enough money to cover food and rent etc. The main exception to those not working but still receieving SNAP benefits are those that are disabled and can’t work…
If you’re going to have an opinion you might as well do the research first to justify that opinion so you don’t come off like a misanthropic, classist, moron…
English
@abbottnation @RedLineReportt BAS has to cover the nutritional needs of a soldier. Soldiers are 9 times out of 10 going to need more than people on SNAP. They are also in a JOB that could get them killed if they have to deploy.
English
SNAP doesn’t require a job… that does not mean the people who receive SNAP benefits arent working. The vast majority are currently employed or have been in full time employment within the last year of receieving SNAP benefits. The main exception are those few people who are too disabled to get full time work. Why are you stupid, evil, and misinformed… this is a bad combination… work on yourself…
English
@abbottnation @RedLineReportt BAS is a form of COMPENSATION that military members get for WORKING. That is in no way similar to SNAP, which people get for no work at all. They are in no way similar.
