    Sorry not sorry to all the "Harry Potter taught my generation to read" folks, but I always thought the two most important media in the Harry Potter franchise were the movies and A Very Potter Musical So Daniel Radcliffe and Team Starkid standing up to JKR warms my fanboy heart

        (The movies are... not great as movies, because they were so stuck slavishly following the books But they did improve on a lot of the worst shit from the books simply because they had to in order to function as movies)

        This is what I mean when I say that people who shit on movie adaptations being "always worse than the book" are just noticing regression to the mean If the book is really good then of course the movie is usually worse If the book sucks then usually the movie ends up better

        Of course, people will argue that this means the movie adaptations are still generally worse because if a book gets famous enough to be adapted at all then it must be a good book They say this because they have no awareness of how the world actually works

        A couple of years ago this picture did the rounds in Dublin, where a junior team won an all-Ireland sports event and found a lad who "looked like Harry Potter" when they were out celebrating and demanded he accompany them https://m0.joe.ie/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/story_28707_Potter_with_Cup.jpg …

        Also, they seem like bad books to LEARN to read from. I LEARNED from seuss and then Animorphs got me excited for books. Harry potter was fine but it was just thing i read, like Holes or Artemis Fowl

        People who have absorbed a simplistic view of the childhood literacy "crisis" get all excited when they see kids reading anything

        Since you brought up both Starkid and the cast if HP, I think this is a good time to remind everyone this exists:pic.twitter.com/BwG2Joqieh

        You forgot about the Puppet Pals. Why, has Cicierega said anything?
