They're actually considerably closer than I expected.
none of them are black
none of them are fat
none of them are genderswapped
none of them are in a wheelchair
They're actually considerably closer than I expected.
none of them are black
none of them are fat
none of them are genderswapped
none of them are in a wheelchair
But the girl is fugly.
why can't they make something new ffs
none of them are black
...anon i
Just like hermione
Yeah I dont even care about the girl being brown. Why not just write something new set in the harry potter universe
No she isn't. This is fugly.
yea but snapes casting already ruined the show. however it seems the backlash they got made them re think on the casting for the kids. they were going to make hermoine an african 100%
they passed up on making the smartest one a black girl
Actually surprising
She had a bossy sort of voice, lots of bushy brown hair and rather large front teeth.
Not fugly enough honestly
Hardly
The big front teeth that could invite bullying are an essential Hermione book trait.
Otherwise she looks like she could become hot in a few years
Do you see how many threads are up about this? That's why. People reliably respond to the familiar, whether it's out of excitement or admonishment. Hollywood and mass media in general recognize that original ideas don't generate the buzz that established IP's do, and that's exactly what marketing types are aiming for. It's succesful on three fronts: normies who naturally gravitate towards familiarity, fandoms that don't move on from the past, and people who get easily caught up in rage bait. All of us are suckers. Compared to that definition of success in a post-viral world, why would large studios waste their time and money on original projects that have a high risk of failure?
Because they want to make money.
I’m genuinely surprised that they didn’t go with an Indian Hermione. I was sure they were going to raceswap at least one of them, and my money was definitely on her.
She’s cute though
inb4 someone declares she MUST be indian because she is somewhat brown and they really want to post their very hilarious and original "SAAR" post
consensus for years was that hermione would be ghetto black
cast the lightest brown girl they could find
chuds still complain
You all got off easy and still can't stop crying about it
She’s not really brown tho, look at her hands. She’s just got a bit of a tan on her face.
Zendaya muttoid
casting directors Lucy Bevan and Emily Brockmann
archive.4plebs.org
Yeah we got it dude
poomione
if the desire is to complain then a complaint will be found
it bears repeating
Don't forget the multiple notes about her pale skin and ginger hair.
The casting for the trio is pretty good. It's obvious they are compensating for Professor Ape.
Aight. So since a white Harry by definition means a white James, which of his buddies is going to be race swapped?
Because there is approximately zero percent chance of modern writers writing a scenario where four white dudes (two of whom are fairly well-off) harass a black incel.
My money is on Lupin. Yeah, there’s the whole werewolf thing meaning he turns into an uncontrollable rage monster. But I figure the optics on that are a little more acceptable than the the traitor turning out to be the only colored person, or Sirius “One Of The Good Ones” Black.
the quote you´re replying to mentions brown hair retard
does it?
ginger hair.
you fucking retard
like this?
Yes schlomo, it does
Literally never has Hermione ever been described with ginger hair, she has always had bushy brown hair, brown eyes and big front teeth (until Book 4), that's her thing. Ron is ginger, as is everyone in his family.
samefag
acceptable
Malfoy?
Hermione very brown
peak jk
cute
You never seen pajeets/arabs/spics?
She's brown
that s about her bushy hair
kek, it's kino!
I, for one, am excited for 6’1 dommy grand mommy McGonagall
she's clearly mixed with something
What makes someone see all the other threads with pages of discussion and think "I'll start another thread"?
There was one where the guy thought he had a clever joke (he didn't) that I'm assuming he didn't want getting lost in all the replies, I can understand his motivation for starting a new thread.
No it isn't.
You just claimed her hair was ginger.
ok, pedo
I don't care if she's half Greek or half Libyan or something. Indian is a specific nationality people dislike and have a host of "jeet" jokes about.
Shes fine. Pre-wall Emma Watson was just too powerful
actually no
Well I actually bothered to get the original press release image instead of a 340x230 blurry crop for one.
Why would it immediately follow mentioning Ron was extra freckly by describing her hair color?
I feel so sorry for the girl playing Hermione.
The next few years are going to be brutal and unkind to her.
UNLESS she has a good puberty, then she'll be a waifu
That's because she's tanned from being in France during summer holidays
It wouldn't mention her as being brown if it wasn't out of the ordinary
Wait I'm retarded Ron was no more freckly than usual
Still, she's white. Non whites don't get super pale when nervous or blush
It wouldn't mention her as being brown if it wasn't out of the ordinary
holy cope
none of them are black
They tried and it was crap.
Her hair is her hallmark in the books, just like Ron s gingerness and freckles
Which one of them is black?
It failed because Joanne Rowling can't write a script to save her life. She's a writer, not a scriptwriter.
Because they can milk a multi BILLION dollar IP for a whole new generation or two without having to try.
My dyslexic cousin was so disappointed by this film.
He thought it was called "Fantastic Breasts and Where To Find Them"
He was so looking forward to it. Not only a showcase of the finest tits, but a field guide on how to track down and coax out more in real life.
He said it was some gay shit about fucking wizards.
I swear it mentions her coming back suntanned from France in Prisoner, I am not crazy
Hogwarts has no wheelchair ramps or disability accommodations. Yet go ahead and cancel Rowling for being anti-trans.
Draco will be gender swapped
And risk drawing the ire of unhinged Fujoshi?
Hermione is ugly in the books though.
I am not crazy
Hermione took time too
Could be a little closer. I see some open space between them. Overlapping is an option too, if you wanted to place two of them behind the central one and offset, so as not to obscure their faces in the picture
The first one was pretty good.
But then it became the Dumbledore and Grindlewald show
what the fuck did the hollyniggers do when HP, marvel, DC, starwars, and whatever the fuck else didn't exist as exploitable IPs? this is literally just design-by-committee/market-research approved dogwater. ALL OF IT.
corpos need to die if they aren't willing to take bigger risks, but LE 2 BIG 2 FAIL
what a travesty of a development for human creativity.
The first was good, then they pussied out and went back to hogwarts and dumbledork jerking
Oh, suddenly you want to consider context in regards to physical descriptors?
Black incel nazi that wanted to fuck the main characters mom
She's white dude
Black people don't blush or blanch, and her parents were dentists.
They did and you didn't support it.
They'll all be white. The Snape casting has potentially influenced the Hermione casting, there was clear backlash and they obviously didn't think through the implications of the character being bullied by James etc...
By the time Season 3 rolls around of this (in a minimum of 4 years by the way) the pendulum probably would have shifted back to less agenda-centric casting.
In fact, I would wager that after the critical failure of The Last of Us and Bella Ramsey's casting misfire that HBO will be one of the first major television studios to go against the grain and start casting quality actors over politically charged ones. They absolutely want to maintain their elite status as the golden standard for television even if they won't come out and publicly admit as such right now. TLoU could very well be cancelled before they shoot the third season and HP is one of their last "guaranteed" projects in terms of viewership.
They, more than anyone else, are the most aware that they need to get this right.
they do, its just harder to see
This shit isn't actually being made by HBO. They are just distributing it.
If it was actually HBO they wouldn't be casting all brits.
The context of the paragraph would explain precisely why they are described as freckly and brown respectively. It isn't referring to her hair.
Disgusting pedophile fuck
I JUST SAID SHE WAS UGLY HOW THE FUCK DID YOU KNOW?
Blatant lie.
HBO acquired the rights to the IP in 2023 and greenlit the production of a new series. This is their tentpole project for their new age streaming overhaul. It's why they have spent the last 12 months severing their ties with other streaming platforms like Binge etc... so make no mistake, this absolutely is THEIR show.
(You) are unironically talking total shit anon.
No one said she was black.
No, he was more freckly than usual, he was just back from Egypt, and gingers get more freckly in the sun. The point being made is that just taking random times they said "white" or "brown" or "dark" or other words in isolation and pretending they're about suddenly describing the person's race for no reason is stupid.
Its a guess anon. Based on events that are happening.
I just hope this Hermione and Harry are better actors than the originals.
Drago will be a negro
Based on events that are happening
Like HBO publicly announcing that they will be PRODUCING a Harry Potter series in 2023?
I just can't understand why you would do something like that? You just go on the internet and... lie?
producing
So they are paying for it but they have some brit firm making it.
That's my bet. No way Hollywood would go full on brit casting.
Black people don't blush
Hey, tell that to Xander from Buffy. Left her wet, hot, and bothered from a passive statement.
gingers get more freckly in the sun.
Wait a minute. I watched some of Buffy and neither Xander nor Buffy were black.
Which is why she is unironically better casting than Emma. Emma was too pretty. Hermione isn't supposed to be that attractive.
I had in mind that they would actually do another movie, a completely new story with Harry in his adulthood, working as an Auror and battling a new villain who isn’t directly tied to him. A story arc that’s not just nostalgia bait, but one that expands the world and gives Harry real character development as he becomes a more powerful wizard.
I wanted to see some based, redpilled villain, someone like Dr. Doom, way more reasonable and compelling than Voldy. More like Grindelwald, but with an even grander, more thought-out master plan. Someone who actually challenges the wizarding world on a deeper level, not just another “kill all Muggles” snooze fest.
Dumb yank. I know it hurts to think for you, but Harry Potter is from the UK. They've already cast a yank as Dumbledore. They didn't care to fill out the entirety of GoT and House of the Dragon with Brits. They've even got a new GoT show coming out this year, so you can expect more of that. This is an HBO show. Plain and simple. You can even go to their wikipedia page and see it listed.
You are retarded.
It's in response to this person
the girl has at least some acting background, she was in matilda where she got that hermione look
her parents were dentists.
Indian?
nice
Undoubtedly there will be a storyline about how some curse has been created that can send you to different universes. Then they will combine the original cast with the new cast like that new Spiderman movie did and you will get your ebin Harry Potter versus Doctor Doom crossover that you so desperately want.
Man, I absolutely hate you nerds and what you did to a normie pastime like film and television.
Ah yes, the classic “let me reduce your idea to a meme because I have nothing of value to add” reply. Appreciate the effort, truly, but if you're this pressed over someone having a creative take on a stale IP.
COME TO HARRY
COME TO HARRY
COME TO HARRY
COME TO HARRY
COME TO HARRY
COME TO HARRY
COME TO HARRY
COME TO HARRY
Why do they want Hermione to be brown so fucking badly?
Are you the Dr Doom anon? Holy newfag. Learn to click reply and stop screaming into the void like your opinion is important. Unironically lurk moar you filthy heathen.
The ginger woman is the ultimate enemy of the leftist mind
When they cast a black Snape the series was already dead on arrival for me.
I was expecting Hermione to look more like this
Everything is forgiven if Harry and Hermione end up together.
How close are we to the goal ??
but if you're this pressed over someone having a creative take on a stale IP.
If he's that pressed then what?
What's gonna happen?!?!?
Only if Ron and Ginny end up together
harry potter cinematic universe!!
creative
el oh el
So, when does filming start?
lmao harry is unironically the most miscast one, he looks too confident and like a bully
Was Cumberbatch off limits? How much is the budget for this slop?
We in fact had a fake clickbait posted literally moments before the official casting announcement claiming this exact actress was being "tipped to be eyed" to play Hermione, despite her being nearly 30, a number of anons predictably immediately believed it.
She'll be Bellatrix
Gross Hermione, unfuvkable
If you adjust your thinking, this almost looks white
Bella's trix already worked on HBO once. Doubt they'll work again.
It's time to admit that Emma Watson's Hermione is just eye candy. There's no soul; by the later films, Emma only played herself.
I wouldn't put it past them. The entertainment industry is so spiteful these days.
Soon, they're building all of the sets on some lot in England right now.
if you start seeing browns as whites, suddenly most of this planet is white
in 4 years nu-Harry and nu-Ron's date will be negresses
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Would be funny if she turns out to not be jeet or paki at all
Predictions:
Ron will be the best actor out of the three, again
People will have more of a problem with Harry than Hermione in the end
Everything will be seen as they should've raceswapped even more than they did
I can already see picrel as Tom Riddle in the second season, they're doing it 100%. Screencapt this.
She was doing that by movie 3
Even in 1 and 2 she was just overacting as much as possible which sort of vaguely crossed over with seeming "bossy" which Hermione is meant to be.
I would, because again, the actress is nearly 30. It was a dumb clickbait because obviously they're casting little kids to play little kids.
She was an OK casting choice. In the first two movies they did a pretty good job making her look like Hermione, but they just gave up later on. Should have given her the buck teeth. That moment where they get enlarged and Snape mocks her was great in the book.
People will have more of a problem with Harry
I don't know about this one. I always though Radcliffe was a bad Harry, so I'm interested in someone else's take on the character.
They've already cast a yank as Dumbledore
simon pegg
yank
I don't think she looks at all either. The hair isn't Indian looking, and she has no particular facial features saying it. Maybe some white/north African mix, or Caucasus. And maybe she is and she just doesn't look it other than being mildly brown, but either way, the people repeating it over and over are clearly just itching to break out their very hilarious and original "SAAR I said SAAR" posts.
>They've already cast a yank as Dumbledore
>simon pegg
>yank
simon pegg
She looks South American
My predictions
Ron indeed will be the best of the three but will be too short post puberty
Harry still won't have green eyes and fans will complain
Hermione's actress will get a decent rack they have to downplay
anons arguing over mystery meat
How about we agree that all of this shit is trash and move on.
Bellatrix is supposed to be hot
Coulda sworn Simon Pegg was in this shitshow.
Have i jumped timelines again?
Shut up, cunt.
No.
They're actually considerably closer than I expected.
None of this fixes the underlying problem that the show is filled with people who hasn't even read the books. It's typical Hollywood bullshit, failed writers who think they can hijack an existing franchise to "tell their own story".
Lithgow is the go-to "we want an English guy who isn't Bong"
They wanted to, but the contract stated no more than 8 hours of teeth tests
Insane men around the world are going to bully this poor girl for years
Nick Frost is playing Hagrid. You probably extrapolated from that.
The problem with hiring child actors for a show like this is that it's very hard to know how good they'll be as adults. None of the child actors from the films turned out to be that good at acting.
god awful actress
Who will be Barty Crouch Jr. and Moody?
Maybe. I still feel like I jumped timelines.
I also don't know who Hagrid is. I don't know any Harry Potter characters.
too soon
Even Henry Kissinger admitted on his deathbed multiculturalism has failed and the civilized western world is in decay from it, so why do they pushing this subversive demoralization
There's only a very small percentage of the planet with white people in it, go fuck off to the rest of the world where you belong
Lucius will be a white guy with orange tan
It takes them so long to shift gears on such broad sweeping policy.
They will change their minds when it's wayyyy tooo late.
Same theme (teaser trailer)
Same castle (seen in the teaser)
Same clothing
Same locations (They're making movie sets in HP theme park)
Same wand designs
So what the fuck do we call this? A remake or a reboot? This is literally as if they rebooted Tobey's Spider-Man and gave Andrew his suit and his theme? I thought this was gonna be like a completely new universe?
It's a new adaptation.
Lazy soulless race baiting cash grab.
Shit.
Right on the money.
Ron's sister is being played by a mutt
molly left arthur for a black guy who is ginny's father
I could see it happening.
is everyone on this board a retarded boomer who believes everything he sees on the internet
Hermaione
It was kino.
OG Harry got keked by a black guy
Nu Harry will end up with a negress
KWAB
Bitch we got pics of hermione on the covers of the books and within the chapter art where it is very clear she is white.
Not SAAAAR, not basketball American, not Ching Chong, but white.
If JK Rowling wanted her anything but white she could have made that call, she didn't
Who will play Cho Chang?
They can't raceswap her right?
IIRC Cuaron didn't read the books until he was invited to direct movie 3.
She made the call for the tv series.
Remember JK is totally down for race swapping and feminist bullshit she just hates trannies.
Trying to tie it into the Harry/Voldemort storyline was a mistake. Should have leaned into the whimsical fantasy angle.
lol reminds me of this youtu.be
Chadric Diggory will be played by Michael B. Jordan
No she isn't you retard.
But Ron was the worst actor of the original three? Lol. He's the only one who didn't stop acting out of choice
There's a difference between someone with obvious European ancestry that is a slightly darker tone and a fucking Guatemalan and I'm tired of retards here pretending there isn't one
What, suddenly you don't like random words being pulled from the book devoid of context?
The larp is getting really boring anon. No one cares to indulge you in your schizo playtime.
Will they finally fucking pronounce Hermione's name correctly?
HERMY-OWN
It isn't difficult
The Hermione actress is at least more experienced already, compared to Watson, she's done a few theater musicals.
You all got off easy and still can't stop crying about it
she isn't white you dumbass
who gives a fuck if she is indian instead of black?
Hermyninny
She isn't Indian
She's indian unless HBO comes out and makes a statement claiming that she's a paki
Let’s not forget that Indian girls were literally a GAG in the original
Indian and Paki are the same thing.
he's infinitely better than watson and didn't get fucked in the ass like radcliffe, so I'd say he was better overall
fucked in the ass like radcliffe
wut?
She's neither.
Nah. Luscious Mouthful will be Elon.
It’s Fudge that’ll be a Trump reference
No they weren't. Parvati was just one of their classmates.
The best outcome if they were going to raceswap one of the three. Everybody knew it was going to happen. Unfortunately any potential this series had is marred by black snape, who black people don’t even want because they see the James Potter dynamic as another buck breaking. Brought to you by the people who made TLOU, Percy Jackson, The Witcher, HOTDS2. If the acting doesn’t suck the production value certainly will.
She's literally half jeet.
uh huh, and your source for this is?
My eyes.
she's a shitskin
Ok so you're just lying, got it
She's English/Nafri actually.
I guess she's no Dafne Keen in Logan (2017). But then again, who is?
Where's your source that she's NOT indian?
I already lost all hope with Snape's casting announcement. Hopefully starring in SLOP won't ruin these kids' lives.
Since you are so positive she's not indian, what do you think she is?
Hermione is very attractive though.
So much so that it was noted by Roger Ebert in his review of the second film, when Emma Watson was 11 years old
Mein gott above. They're perfect
Since you are so positive she's not indian
You made the claim. "Literally" you said, as if you were reaction to actual information.
Emma Watson was, is and always shall be dogshit casting for Hermione.
theater kid
yeah she's going to be absolutely insufferable in a few years
no idea
she has no distinctive facial features of any particular race, her skin is only mildly brown, her name gives zero indicators
so I'll just wait and find out
What would you like me to do, kidnap her and do a dna test? She looks like a fucking indian, there is no reason to think she isn't indian other than you being an autistic retard
I don't think you know what "theater kid" means. It doesn't mean "a child who did a play".
With the amount of money the production value is going to suck up they should’ve just made another full 7-8 movies. At least they would’ve confirmed made their money back instead of relying on HBO Max metrics cope.
based on what? that she's somewhat brown? there's lots of brown races and nationalities
White. Maybe a dash of Mediterranean or Arab. Distant though.
The problem with remaking the movies is you'd still have to cut out 1,500 pages of source material. The television format sort of justifies a remake because the runtime doesn't force you to cut anything.
That's not Hermione, that's Emma Watson.
How about you wait until there's more information like who her parents are? It won't take long, it's a massive franchise, no one knew who she was before six hours ago.
The main three are fine but the side characters have all been pozwashed
It's just Mathilda, dude. Calm down. Every kid actress who can sing goes for that play.
Snape and....?
hermione is a quadroon
I can't believe people here are saying she's white/white passing yet at the same time crying foul about amerimutts
It really has been shitskins pushing X is actually white/whiter than you kek
white
That's not even white passing in America.
Except the movies don’t truly leave out much, you still get the gist of everything. Plus there’s still plenty of ways to make the “new” ones unique and truer.
Why would I need more information to know that her mother's family is from this part of the map? I have all the information I need.
This is bait
Ok bro, what if she's in fact say half Algerian? Will you admit to being an India obsessed weirdo?
Yes.
Except the movies don’t truly leave out much, you still get the gist of everything
GoF and OotP are a fucking mess that leave out a lot of key scenes and info, they're barely comprehensible. Even PoA's climax is weird and rushed and never actually says clearly what the situation even happening is.
Again that's the problem when you set a series in late early 1900s Europe you're bound to come across your Francos and your Moseleys even you set it in far away lands like Albania or the Alps.
A lot more browns here than you think
that's just JD vances' wife
Unfortunately the studio was greedy and thought they could force another trillion dollar franchise, so instead of a fun one-off adventure we got a bloated mess that (deservedly) got canned after 3 out of 5 planned movies.
Thing is he wasn't actually wrong though, I think he is being cynical, not a pervert. Someone picked Emma very carefully recognising who she would be in about two to three years time, and she did exactly that, Emma Watson was the Millennial wet dream for a decade and the world counted down to her 18th birthday, where during the night of, the media rushed to get her first up skirt pic as she got out of a car blasting her hairy pussy all over the tabloid newspapers.
She was being picked for just these reasons from the start and he probably recognised that once again hollywood was full of casters who basically decided "this kid is/will be hot" and got her for that reason alone.
Feel most nostalgic for Azkaban do you? Yeah, i bet you remember being 12 and seeing Emma in that pink hoodie more than anything else don't you? That was the point.
that's insane LMAOOO
Pure facts
Feel sorry for him desu
Emma Watson was only "hot" when she was jailbait when she wore the school uniform and had her hair and makeup done by professionals, as a legal age woman she was revolting or tomboy bait
By the time book 3 gets adapted these guys will be 16-17
yeah
The kids all look the part.
Shame that they royally fucked up on Snape though.
That said, I have no plans to watch this shit.
It is as others have said, starting with Azakaban they just stopped bothering to even try to make her look like Hermione anymore, they barely curled her hair, let it turn a lighter color, and just let her play herself. She was just becoming "movie babe" for millennial teen boys and they leaned into that heavily. Why do people remember pink hoodie? She stopped being the nerd Hermione, her voice deepened, they couldn't hide her visible breasts anymore and frankly, they didn't want to because that hoodie is too small for her and it's all anyone could notice about her in those scenes. For pervert hollywood "she had arrived" and it was going to make them millions.
I feel for Daniel and Rupert though, she must have drove them ballistic over those 7 years, i bet they spent months on and off being totally infatuated just like the rest of us only they had to see her all the time, but supposedly she only had eyes for Tom Felton.
Comments
Hilarious that Rupert just always made that face. He deserved better. They knew what they were picking with Emma from the start, on purpose.
Rupert is great.
It still makes me laugh that they did a massive casting call for Harry only to choose the son of a friend of the producers.
As a book reader watching the movies you are highly aware of what's "missing" but I know plenty of people who have only watched the movies and like all the ones that book readers think are bad or confusing adaptations like Goblet of Fire.
It always bothers me that from this movie onward everyone just wears boring normalfag muggle clothes 99% of the time.
The Harry actor is gay.
What are they gonna do if he troons?
He's like ten. What do you mean he's gay?
the media rushed to get her first up skirt pic as she got out of a car blasting her hairy pussy all over the tabloid newspapers
Is this real?
But Cuaron is a professional and certainly did so once he got the gig, and it shows in the quality of his work
I'm sure you guys are all looking forward to making these children's lives a living hell.
It always bothers me that from this movie onward everyone just wears boring normalfag muggle clothes 99% of the time.
Truly a 2000's kind of generic normalfag clothing at that. Wizards and witches were supposed to all be decked out in yellows and greens, crimsons and purples. Top hats and cloaks, jewelled rings and pointy shoes. Yet Harry and Ron would walk on looking like they were in Nirvana and Emma would either be in the TIGHTEST jeans and long sleeve t-shirts or she would be in fall comfy clothing
That poor girl is going to experience hell.
Mckenna Grace on the top left.
Just look for Emma Watson's 18th birthday incident
I recall my dad being confused by the climax of Prisoner and of Goblet. In Prisoner they never actually clearly explain what happened between Sirius, Pettigrew and the Potters, they just sort of yell a lot and then try to kill him.
OOTP also never explains the prophecy clearly nor Snape's involvement, nor even what Voldemort was looking for the whole year.
You can thank the faggot director for that. He wanted to make them more like real teenagers
.
It also feels out of character, like sure Hermione is muggle born but also a massive over-achiever and would probably wear her school robes 24/7 on campus. And Harry canonically didn't even have any muggle clothes that fit him, did Hagrid take him shopping at Primark over the summer?
The third film never clarifies who the Marauders are; Peter Pettigrew is called Wormtail in later films.
Exaggerated but yeah
zero percent chance of modern writers writing a scenario where four white dudes (two of whom are fairly well-off) harass a black incel
Are you retarded or am I retarded? Isn't that exactly what they'd do? Make the whites all evil douchebags who prey on the vulnerable minority? What are you talking about?
Yes just search "Emma Watson hairy pussy" and it's the first image back. She was going out parting for her 18th birthday and wore a black dress and decided to wear some sort of bizarre pair of panties you could see through and her pubes are just visibly there.
You can see here how devastated she was seconds after marching away from the car.
"I remember on my 18th birthday I came out of my birthday party, and photographers laid down on the pavement and took photographs up my skirt, which were then published on the front of the English tabloid the next morning. I’ve had my arse slapped as I’ve left a room. I felt scared walking home. I’ve had people following me. I don’t talk about these experiences much, because coming from me they’ll sound like a huge deal and I don’t want this to be about me, but most women I know have experienced it, and worse… this is unfortunately how it is."
Checked and true. Three is the best book and best movie.
To be honest if Harry did not spend some of his fucking fortune on his own clothing after the first year of Hogwarts then he is just a slob. I realise he would have had his finances managed but new clothing that fits was surely an essential.
what they were picking with Emma ???
Funny how the criticisms of Arabella boil down to racism and/or pedophilia.
New Hermione looks like my first crush from primary school era and I feel weird looking at her face.
Not because I want to fuck her but because I want to go back so much.
Picking. Choosing. When casting her as Hermione.
Somebody 100% put her up to that and knew exactly what would happen, otherwise wearing sheer panties under a short dress as a celeb is peak retardation unless you are an attention seeking whore like paris hilton
i dont get it.
they wanted a slut for hermione?
where they picking an actress with dubious morals?
yeah but he would probably go shopping at Diagon Alley and get cool wizard shit and not fucking jeans and flannel shirts
Jump for joy and celebrate, they live for that shit
I will give Emma this, being obviously a very good looking 18 year old in the late 2000's and not being the kind of girl who shaves her pussy was very cute and admirable of her. Her mound fully covered full long hairs suggesting she had always rocked it that way. It was not the trend at the time especially if it was going to be seen by our generation of porn brained expectation guys. Quite the display of womanhood.
People want familiar things to feel good. Studios want familiar things that did well for less risk. It's not that complicated.
Hope it happens as soon as possible so they can try to incorporate it into the show
Who said "slut"? anon jesus. They knowingly picked a girl they knew would soon become a very beautiful young woman when they should have been choosing for a rather mid bookish Brit girl with lots of annoying bushy hair.
Am I a bad person if I say I wanted her dress to lift up?
You never bullied the gay kid when you were 10 years old?
My bully instinct has been activated. That kid is gay.
You probably can't even tell which police are jewish by eye.
brainrot
But Dr, I WAS the gay kid!
If I wanted to watch coloreds I would watch cops or stake out the junk food aisle
They have no place in British fantasy
No, you’re right. I’m partially retarded.
What I meant was something along the lines of them supposing to be people that the main character is supposed to look up to or admire. And don’t let the morons fool you, the worst Harry thinks about James specifically and the Marauders generally is “man, they’re kinda dickheads”
Or something. Maybe I am fully retarded.
you're a dumb person if you think she wasn't wearing cycling shorts underneath that
this is your mind on mutt identity politics where europeans being replaced by noneuropeans is in the same category as every other of their little meaningless political discussions like trannies or disabled people kek
James Potter will be Miles Teller screencap this
But Black Dynamite. I sell drugs to the community
No shes pretty
They knowingly picked a girl they knew would soon become a very beautiful young woman
Eh, I doubt it. Unless they were doing the whole forensic aging up thing cops use to find lost kids, it’s really hard to predict that someone is going to grow up to be a smoke show. Which is the problem with casting child actors for long-running series.
That being said, unless you deliberately go out of your way to choose an uggo, if you put a kid in an environment like Hollywood where they have access to dietitians, plastic surgeons, expensive dentists, makeup artists, stylists, etc, they’re almost certainly going to turn out above average. Until they hit the wall.
but he's a dickhead for a majority of the books. just like james.
This. It's weird and lowkey racist how Snape is the only main character race swap. Like how drug dealing violent black rappers are held up as "look how nice and relatable this awesome guy is!" It's celebrating diversity, but in a fucked up way. If they kept every character the same race as in the books, cool. If they race swapped everybody - Chinese Hermione, Indian Harry, African Ron, etc. - that would be cool too. But JUST making this major departure for Snape is weird.
people that the main character is supposed to look up to or admire
Ah it seems you missed the long convoluted plot changes someone 'leaked' here regarding James and them. I can't remember the details myself or I'd tell you but the summary is basically James is going to be much worse AND he even possibley gets cucked by black Snape (snape and Lily will bang according to the anon)
Neville
Seamus
Oliver Wood
Harry's assumptions that Snape is working against him is now an allegory for racial profiling. Harry is just like his racist father.
No, they haven't.
a black irishman and a black scotsman?
Ah brilliant. So when Harry realizes Snape wasn't the villain and comes to respect him as a hero, this is now also about the perils of racism and a neatly packaged lesson in the value of anti racism.
Snape is the only main character race swap
Hermione is a fucking shitskin you cancerous post covid redditor
Forgive me if I don’t believe you
and you believed this tripe written on Anon Babble why?
hot
I'm not the source of the rumor so don't worry I really don't care what you think of it. Hopefully someone saved it
Totally not written specifically to trigger anons.
Because it made sense, perfectly fits the agenda as has been partially outlined here
It's possible they cast a black Snape and still intend to create a faithful adaptation of course - oh wait
lol, you retard
Snape is a giant dick toward Harry from day 1 and literally bullies him at every opportunity with zero provocation. And not just Harry, he also regularly bullies Neville, the kid whose parents were tortured into insanity.
Though I highly suspect this new TV version will tone that down significantly and just make Snape "cold" with some zippy one-liners. Even the movie version with Rickman was significantly whitewashed from how truly nasty he is in the books.
>Because it made sense
No it really doesn't.
You guys know the reason she was chosen is because they are going to keep calling her a mudblood and half breed to try and gaslight the audience with the "MESSAGE" and that racemixing good or something and feel bad for half jeeta/pakis in bongland
I really hope it's not like this so tell me, what doesn't make sense about it?
she needed to be a half breed so they can hammer the mudblood actually means race mixed not half magic half muggle. I guarentee Rowling told them to.
Rowling would not have random affairs between major characters that completely change their relationships included in her adaptation.
cast brown non white hermonie
gee i thought they'd cast her a non white
?????
It has not been confirmed her level of control is at all the same as she had for the films which was near 100%. Further she is a huge lib. The only reason she seems 'based' on the trans stuff is because she is a feminist and (correctly) identifies men invading women's spaces and larping as females as a threat to women. Anyways I hope you're right, you probably are.
She has light skin and straight hair. Slight race triggered crybaby.
You all must be trolling.
why is hermione a filthy negro?
I have screencapped good sir.
Re-read
This isn't about "lib". Making Lily an adulterer and James a scumbag is not going to happen.
That's literally what libs do. Have you been in a 2 decade long coma? Lily and James are white!
No, you're just working yourself into a nonsensical situation where you believe a random faggot on Anon Babble talking about blacking
People forget this is and always has been a series for children, there is no fucking way they add a plotline about the main character's dead and murdered mother having a secret affair like some daytime soap. Fucking hell
I never liked her
It starts out as a children's book. It grows with the reader, Rowling did this intentionally. At the end half the named characters are dead. There is a subplot about Longbottoms parents being tortured for so long by Death Eaters that they are rendered permanently mentally handicapped and live in a care facility for the insane so he is raised by his grandmother. Dumbledore and Harry have a chat in the afterlife and Voldemorts soul is described as a mewling burnt fetus that lays helplessly on the floor sobbing as Dumbledore and Harry talk. I could go on. I'm not saying the Snape Lily shagging is guaranteed but you're naive if you dismiss it.
Oh fucking get a clue you goon
There isn't going to be an affair plotline with Harry's parents. You're absolutely braindead if you think there is.
JUST making a major departure for Snape is weird
Maybe re-read his post about the shitskin
oh no she is slightly brown while also still having all the descriptions of Hermione, bushy brown hair, big teeth, mousy looks
Meanwhile black Snape literally is not able to have even a single one of the descriptions of Snape from the book, as in physically impossible
