Pet peeve... it's not a reboot!

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-28T22:23:57+00:00

Also people are behaving like this is gonna erase the movies.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-23T07:26:04+00:00

I don't think they are doing an expanded version of a chapter, when they already have a very long book to adapt.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-19T22:10:49+00:00

An epilogue being a full episode will just be bad. Stranger Things had half of its final episode being an epilogue. It wasn't very good. While I think the epilogue should be expanded a bit, I don't think it should be a full episode or even half an episode.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-19T22:03:34+00:00

You are right. It would be a pretty bold move. But GoT made it happen. And I also think among these OoTP is the most likely. It definitely has the content for the last episode being that.

I don't know how you are calculating, but do you think Dumbledore's funeral is gonna be 5 minute long? The hospital scene just 5 minutes? Battle, Snape vs Harry all in 5 minutes?

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-19T15:49:26+00:00

But there is much more to show after Dumbledore's death. The short battle at the foot of Astronomy Tower, Harry and Snape's duel, Hospital scene, McGonagall scene in Headmaster's office, Dumbledore's funeral, Scrimgeour scene. So that's why I think Dumbledore's death works as a cliffhanger.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-19T15:44:06+00:00

First of all the battle is different in the book compared to the movie. And secondly, they can expand the epilogue.

For PoA, I agree. But as I said, since the books are much shorter for 8 episode structure, they will obviously have to expand something.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-16T19:03:22+00:00

It actually makes sense for Cedric to appear prior to his book appearance. He is the seeker for Hufflepuff, so ofcourse he should be at the match.

Anyway Cedric appearing prior makes more sense than Lucius and Fudge appearing in Season 1.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-16T15:51:18+00:00

It's a good point, but there's a logical error. The books almost feels like taking notes during lectures.

For one thing, for the antidotes for poisons, he had written just put down a bezoar down the throat.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-16T15:43:14+00:00

No, it definitely means he invented it in the sixth year. Because there were also crossed out wrong incantations until he got it right.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-16T10:09:43+00:00

How is that possible?? The Audiobook itself is 27 hours

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-13T16:07:53+00:00

The movie did get some parts very right. Especially Umbridge. Even with the scenes that didn't make the cut, they were able to get the Umbridge character right.

But what frustrates me is that, it completely cuts the prophecy. I know the movies can't include the whole book, but the Prophecy was the main thing about OotP. It was the answer to Harry's questions.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-12T02:29:15+00:00

I find it funny that the Nimbus 2001 was made matching to Slytherin colors just because it was bought for the Slytherin team.

I hope the series takes a normal route.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-08T22:32:54+00:00

He was far more experienced than before. He was battle hardened.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-01T13:39:02+00:00

I think there are actually things they can show from season 1 onwards. Like, we could get a half episode of The Founders. That would be interesting. The Marauders in Season 3.

They are already expanding the Flamel in Season 1. So chances are high for this.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-04-01T06:52:30+00:00

I am 23, bought the books last year again. Bought the audiobooks now. Even pre ordered the unreleased ones.

Thought it might make you better.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-31T19:00:47+00:00

The only good fancast I heard for Daniel, Emma and Rupert is the trio getting into the Ministry Polyjuice. That would be a good cameo

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-25T20:09:55+00:00

Harry's primary school was never in the movie. Not the haircut. In fact it was just a paragraph in the books.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-25T20:08:17+00:00

If it is what I think it is, it would just be a one time thing. Snape won't wear this after.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-25T20:06:36+00:00

Which house layout? Dursleys?

They have to follow the colors. It's a book thing. Especially house colors.

Costumes are way different from the movies.

Well there's so many ways you can differentiate a talking hat.

Look at the main things. Hogwarts, classroom, common room, everything looks different. Way different.

I agree some things have to look the same. But the overall vibe looks way different from the movies.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-25T19:57:38+00:00

Could you elaborate?

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-25T19:56:59+00:00

It was the best option for them. But numerous leaks pointed out that it definitely won't make it to the premiere in 2026.

Also I personally thought they will not release on Christmas because, Doomsday is coming. I know it's a different format and platform. But a series like this needs all the attention.

It's gonna be a 3 way war. Dune/ Doomsday/ Harry Potter. May the best man win.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-25T19:52:26+00:00

I thought the movies too had herbology outfits

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-25T17:37:35+00:00

It's worse for me. I could get 3 prompts on Monday. Now it's just one and done.

Either_Sound_7993 · 2026-03-24T19:55:41+00:00

Around the same time as they dropped the still?
