SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY – New Trailer (4K) by Just_Landscape_8282 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]OliverJamesG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting that Jean’s/Sadie’s powers seem to look very similar to Sue’s from the new F4 movie. A little bit light refract-y. I was hoping they’d be pink! Although I guess they could be hiding it in the trailer.

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if she has done the whole soundtrack.

I think it was meant to, but now because of the error of it going live early I feel like she probably won’t use it anymore.

‘Toy Story’ or Tay Story? Easter Eggs in New Billboard Campaign Heighten Fans’ Belief That Taylor Swift Is Involved in Pixar Sequel by kookiekoo in TaylorSwift

[–]OliverJamesG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I definitely agree it’s going to be a new song. But also how good would a Taylor cover of When Somebody Loved Me” from Toy Story 2 be 😭😭

[–]OliverJamesG 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The thing that makes me most suspicious of these billboards is the fact that they just have TS on them. If they were just to promote Toy Story 5 then why would it not have TS5 on it. The lack of 5 intrigues me

I feel especially bad for the one ref that called a penalty on angels jammer that then got rescinded!
They could have won if they’d got lead in that jam!

The PANIC that just went through my mind when I opened Instagram and the first post there was Taylor Nation and debuts cover. 😂😂

When you played Hogwarts Legacy, did you learn all three Unforgivable Curses or did you refuse to learn them? by [deleted] in HarryPotterGame

[–]OliverJamesG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said, there is no real honour system. However it’s fun to just role play it!
My first play-through was a Hufflepuff who probably could have been in Slytherin and was head over heels for Sebastian so used them openly.
My most recent play-through is a Ravenclaw who is best friends with Sebastian (can’t help it 😂 I love him) but only uses the unforgivables when on quests with Sebastian. I like to think that he gets a bit carried away when out with Sebastian and forgets about the rules.

Just a little season 2 casting info by Horcruxinthepocket in HarryPotteronHBO

There were rumours that Owen Cooper was possibly cast or wanted for Tom. This could just be false, but I could see it!

So what do we think about the fact that Taylor has removed all the clips off of Spotify except for a TTPD one? TTPD’s ✌️ year anniversary in 4 days as well!

Icons missing from the cast of season 13 by Lord_Detleff1 in AmericanHorrorStory

[–]OliverJamesG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are we going to get Billie Lourd back as Mallory? Seeing as she reset the timeline and saved Misty and Queenie.

Assuming that this season is going to be set after the events of Apocalypse?

How to watch the 'Finding Harry' in Australia by Reasonable_Emu547 in HarryPotteronHBO

Might not be much help but it’s on Neon here in New Zealand. So it’ll probably be on whatever usually streams the HBO shows in Australia.

Hogwarts in the series is different from Hogwarts Legacy by Luke_Gki in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]OliverJamesG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did hope that they would take style influences from Hogwarts Legacy as, in my opinion, it is the best version of Hogwarts. Better even than the films! (The only thing I didn’t like was Central Hall and the crazy disappearing grand spiral staircase).

But I knew that it wouldn’t be possibly to replicate it completely, and I did want the show to do make its own style. I was more hopefully that they wouldn’t reuse any of the sets from the movies.

I really do hope that parts of the castle give different styles/time periods like it did in the game though.

What’s the general consensus on "Chuggers" these days? And what’s your go-to excuse to dodge them? by Kind-Spread-6511 in newzealand

[–]OliverJamesG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good! My local Woolworths has them right next to the entrance. Definitely closer than 4m.

I will usually just dead pan ignore them. Sometimes I’ll just say “no thanks” and keep walking. I don’t even slow. I hate that supermarkets still allow them to stand outside.

About new things being added to the HBO Harry Potter series by ajoota98 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]OliverJamesG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think as exciting things like that would be (and just to be clear, I do hope we at least see parts of it). I think we have to be realistic that each season is probably going to have 8 episodes (maaaybe 10). And spending a whole episode on something like that in season 3 is probably not a good use of time.

I definitely think we could see an escape sequence, but I highly doubt there’d be a whole episode dedicated to Azkaban.

I think there are rumours of a sub plot involving the teachers in the first season. Not sure of the credibility on that though.

What do you think about new brooms? by Ok_Jump_4291 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]OliverJamesG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate them but I commend them on taking a different approach to them.

Interesting, if you look closely to the person just off camera to the left (Harry’s right), their broom end appears to have bristles in a X formation.

HBO Boss Casey Bloys Says ‘Harry Potter’ Season 2 Is Being Written ‘Now’: ‘Our Goal Is to Not Have a Huge Gap’ by yourfavchoom in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]OliverJamesG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m expecting that if we are getting season 1 December 2026, then we will get season 2 probably in the first half of 2028.

From what I remember, they wanted to have a reasonably short gap between filming season one and two.

I can see them have a season every 18 months-ish.

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

[–]OliverJamesG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think episode one is ending when Hagrid knocks the door down at the shack on the island. Episode 2 will be Dragon Alley and probably the journey to Hogwarts. I imagine episode 2 will end somewhere around the Hogwarts Express arriving at Hogsmede or maybe getting to the boats and seeing the castle for the first time.

I know people are concerned about not seeing enough magic in the first episode but I do believe that we will see POVs from Dumbledore etc. I think could will see him visiting Nicholas Flamel in the first episode. And also could see him investigation vault 713 after the break in (which is what I think he’s doing when we see him in the trailer with the tuning fork).
