I never got into HP when I was a kid. I don’t even think I’ve seen every movie.

The world is a shit show and if adults want to get lost in sci-fi/fantasy movies, let them.

I wasn't into Harry Potter at all as a kid. I liked A Series of Unfortunate Events more. You can imagine my disappointment when we didn't get the entire series made into movies the way HP kids did.

Did they not do that with the Netflix show? I never wtchd past e1

[lovelylaura23]

Yeah they did, luckily. I was out of my teens by then tho. Lol

[sandstorm]

Let me go see what they did with Hostile Hospital real quick

She's right and she should say it.
It still boggles my mind why THIS children's book series and not any other children's books series.

Watch this next time you're bored. You'll see how deliberate this was. Lol

ooh her videos have been showing up in my suggestions. I just finished watching this one and really liked it!

The consumerism is so off-putting and at times bizarre, like the fact you have to buy your wand - as pointed out in the video: "Imagine Gandalf shopping around for a staff!" lol

She’s not wrong and I’m saying this as someone who was into hp well into my 20s

[am2m]

Same here and I agree

[captainamerica]

same and i really want to get my two tattoos covered as it is because of terf rowling tainting everything

[touchedarling]

Same! I read them in my early 20’s, loved them, but hated the films. Now I’m 40 and find it so odd how many of my friends are still OBSESSED with them. I’ve kept the books for my kids if they ever want to read them, but I’ve never been tempted to re-read them.
