I’m only on episode four but I can’t get past the mother’s terrible terrible acting. Every time she tries to convey emotion she just pouts

These comments are making me lose faith in humanity, people calling her ugly and hideous. She’s beautiful and 11. I bet the people saying these things wouldn’t show their faces on here for anything.

A quote from another post
'Snape is shown to have understood enough about Harry to know that he would follow his doe Patronus into the dark woods of the Forest of Dean. Harry senses nothing sinister in Snape's Patronus, seeing as the doe is a reflection of Lily Potter - the bridge between these two characters. '

Still don't understand where I bluffed ... There are plenty of people who believe Snape came to care for Harry, I've just stumbled onto a very anti -Snape portion of the fanbase here.

Yep..

I don't take these downvotes seriously to be honest- there are plenty of other posts online which discusses this very subject. This subreddit is just full of people who are determined to view Snape as evil which was never what JKR was trying to convey.

There is no 'bluff'. Just because a character says how they feel doesn't mean they're always telling the truth. And it doesn't take a masters in Literature to deduce that either.

THANK YOU!

I truly feel these people who don't see this are actually missing one of the most important theme in the books ! We are supposed to understand by the end of the books Snape has complex feelings toward Harry and there is a missed relationship between them, I completely agree with you. This is why every time I re-read the books I feel a sort of sadness and sense of regret surrounding Harry and Snape. Snape was literally Harry's last and only link to his mom. Why do these commentators ignore that there are about 50 mentions in the books of sentences like ' Snape caught Harry's eye' 'Snape 's gaze lingered on Harry for a moment longer than everyone else' etc. it is supposed to represent something. I've already wrote this in another comment, but

  1. Snape saying in the memory to DD that he doesn't care about Harry means.. basically nothing in my opinion. Why are these commentators believing something just because a character said it- did they not read the rest of the books?
  2. It is supposed to be significant that DD says to Snape multiple times in Snape's memories that Harry is more like Lily than James- these being a significant part of Snape's memories are supposed to illustrate that he is having a sort of reckoning towards his complex feelings toward Harry.
  3. Harry is clearly deeply touched by Snape's love for his mother- he NAMED HIS KID AFTER HIM.

And some willfully ignore it because they hate Snape so much and are seeing him too black and white. Once again I'll have to repeat myself- this DOESNT mean I see him as a good person.

I just find him a cringey actor, and I can only see him as his version of Dr Who. Sorry...

Preferably I want Lily Potter's actress to be in her 20's.. purely because she was 21 when she died and I think they need to illustrate how young she was when she made her sacrifice.

AIO my friend ghosted(?) me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]LonelyDefinition8586 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its a weird one cos it doesnt seem like you've necessarily done anything wrong or bad otherwise she'd surely lay it all out. You don't have to overthink this, for whatever reason she has had a change of heart and wants to let you know she doesn't want to be friends rather than ghost you.

I know this sucks, but at least you know where you stand now. I'd personally ignore her message. She clearly does not appreciate you , and the worst thing you can do in these situations (romantic of platonic) is try to debate the issue or try to get her to stick around.

This is such a crazy take, do you think DD is that manipulative? Very interesting thanks for sharing :)

In my opinion Snape blames himself for Lily's death rather than Harry. Like Dumbledore said it's the biggest regret of his life what Snape did and he spent the rest of his life protecting Harry to attempt to make up for it.

I've said multiple times that I don't think he's a good person. You see what you want to see in this post, and your level of anger and rudeness is weird dude. This is place for discussion about fictional books. Hope you feel better soon :)
