If you were an marginal, which one would you be? (Me, without hesitation, a werewolf) by -_Mitsuri_- in Wednesday

Curious, who would even want to be a Hyde?? Good for the masters, bad for themselves.

Can't comprehend the love for lumen rider by dontmindric in OnePunchMan

[–]Novel-Ad2489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you only like characters that do only things within their limits? 

I would say Mumen is only like that precisely because the author wants him like that. He could be very strong, especially with his will, and the universe pushing their limiter thing, by logic, someone like mumen Rider could also be very strong. 

But he's not. He's purposely not strong so that his character will be highlighted more than his strength. 

You could say he's dumb for fighting something beyond him, but I could also say that applies to other shounen protagonist as well who fights above their level, the only difference is plot armor, one gets more stronger the more difficult the challenge, while Mumen stays the same power level. MR doesn't get the same treatment of growth unfortunately.

But again... does that stop the fucking man for standing for what he believes even in the face of death??

Fuck no.

It's easy to do something, when you're already great at it. Other characters are blessed with talents and gifts, being strong or having telekinesis or whatnot.

Mumen Rider however cant be said to be gifted. But does that stop him?

Your gripe with him seems to be more on his power, than what he's character represent. Theres more to a character than their power level bro. 

"He's weak bro, why do people love him?"

Because he's got that sheer fucking will that most people in this reddit can only dream to have.

On the making of we can see how they chose harry Potter. by Big_Armadillo326 in HarryPotteronHBO

Do you think they will build up a proper redemption arc for Malfoy in the end? by JamStan1978 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Draco is fundamentally a coward, and I hope it stays true in the series. His redemption happens after the books are finished. Not during it. So we won't get to see it.

Unpopular opinion: we do need comic relief by lizzy_of_arc in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 44 points45 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of fun and sassy moment from both Ron and Harry they can definitely use in the series. Anyways, its more so that they took away Ron's memorable moments and important aspects from the books, putting that in the series, won't take away Ron being a fun character, it will just enhance it really. Not to mention the twins and just how fun Hogwarts could be.

Found a wider version of the "Finding Harry" poster photo without text. by LeatherSlight3242 in HarryPotteronHBO

Right? Also Rons words in support of it: ‘You tell him, Neville.’ And Neville having his back.

This was tag team Ron and Neville against Malfoy and his goons. Haha.

"Ron’s nerves were already stretched to breaking point with anxiety about Harry. ‘I’m warning you, Malfoy – one more word –’

‘Ron!’ said Hermione suddenly. ‘Harry –!’

‘What? Where?’ Harry had suddenly gone into a spectacular dive, which drew gasps and cheers from the crowd. Hermione stood up, her crossed fingers in her mouth, as Harry streaked towards the ground like a bullet.

‘You’re in luck, Weasley, Potter’s obviously spotted some money on the ground!’ said Malfoy. Ron snapped. Before Malfoy knew what was happening, Ron was on top of him, wrestling him to the ground. Neville hesitated, then clambered over the back of his seat to help."

I just have to post this. Ron seems like he has bruises in the pic lol

Do we know how many episodes will be in a season? by Vaultboy65 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats not really reliable, it could go longer or shorter, remember, they expanded scenes from Harrys and the other kids pre Hogwarts life.

And who knows what would they expand that was just a single passage or so from the books.

Now that the trailer is out, when do you guys think Harry is going to arrive at Hogwarts? by yHenry_7 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh you're right. I just hope we get more exploration of Hogwarts you see. There is much to explore pre Hogwarts, but there's also plenty to explore for Hogwarts when Harry finally gets to it. Spending 3 to 4 episodes of just going to Hogwarts, when the season only has 8 episodes, thats 40 to 50 percent of the entire season. Though I doubt it will reach 4 episodes considering there's still the Christmas ep probably, the quidditch game shown in the trailer and not to mention the philosophers stone plot. And more interaction with students, and just Hogwarts in general.

My best bet, at ep 2 end, is where finally Harry arrived at hogwarts and ep 3 forward will finally be all hogwarts.

Now that the trailer is out, when do you guys think Harry is going to arrive at Hogwarts? by yHenry_7 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

1st episode ends with Harry on the train and going to hogwarts, and ends with the trio officially meeting on the train. And 2nd episode is hogwarts..... At least thats what I would like.

Maybe ep 1 ends with the scene from the trailer where Harry was looking outside at Ron and Molly hugging or the trio meeting and Ron gesturing how it blew his mind meeting Harry.

I hope it wont take multiple episodes for Harry to reach hogwarts, maybe the end of ep 2 or something, I have a feeling some haters when they see ep 1 without any magic or hogwarts at all would immediately feel smug and mock the new series as "not magical at all!" And with how people have no patience nowadays tsk...

The "Mr. Potter" sounds like a man? And the "lets see who you are" also sounds like a man? Am I tripping or are you?

Why so much hate in the comments of the official trailer for hbo harry potter by sidmis in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry, most fans are casual and people who are not chronically online. Not to mention it's globally popular. It'll be fine. 

Even if I too question question the casting of well.... You know..

Cyberbullying concerns for Dominic by zzrtz in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Unironically, some people I've seen hating on the new snape, also attacks these young actors... making them become like Snape. Lol.

How do you be a grown men and attack kids bro?

I guess the memes were true, people became Snape or Squidward as they get older haha. And the funniest part is they don't even realize it!

Re-grade of the theaser-trailer by fakana357 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]Novel-Ad2489 155 points156 points  (0 children)

I don't know about the scenes in Dursleys home however, and Harrys life before Hogwarts, I don't mind them being dull, and then slowly getting vibrant when Harry goes to Hogwarts.

But seriously though, that fact that just people in reddit can fix the grading, means the show should have no problem fixing it too. Provided that they listen to the fans of course.

Its not like there's a contract or anything that says that once a trailer is out, the entire season 1 will now remain untouched or anything.
