I like how JKR has gone so fullthroatedly transphobic that she no longer really has any public presence in the role of a children's book author anymore, she's 24/7 trans exterminationism, and people are still like "this is normal behavior from a safe human" Like she's obsessed

The mechanical interspersing of trans tweets with Ickabogg tweets, like holy shit Children's drawing, children's drawing, children's drawing, wild accusation against the trans community, children's drawing

I will put 5,000 galleons* on this table rn Fantastic Beasts 3 will be a middling success Rowling will treat this as cancel culture and blame it on trans ppl *pirate galleons, not wizard galleons

That's a very safe bet. I mean, the lack of success couldn't possibly be because the last two were mediocre at best. Nope, must be that pesky 'woke' cancel culture.

k, my sincerest bet: FB2, which had international success but tanked reviews, will try to course correct and be more like the first one. But, bc that never works and bc JK Rowling is nutsack cray, it will not do as well as expected. She will blame this on "trans cancel culture."

After the trainwreck of FB2, they pushed back the production of FB3 to try to retool the series and they got a professional screenwriter back as a script doctor after they'd let JKR do the screenplays for the first two movies by herself

This is the whole reason FB3 was delayed enough that they didn't manage to start shooting on it before COVID-19 So what kind of movie FB3 will actually be like remains wildly up in the air

I am... not super hopeful, though, about the idea of a JKR-written story that takes place primarily in Rio de Janeiro and is supposed to be steeped in Brazilian culture

Yeah, she's rarely been super sensitive regarding other cultures. Everything she's written since Deathly Hallows has been more and more schlocky, cliche'd and, well, bad. The FB movies could have explored other areas of the world, but instead rehash the Grindelwald stuff.

Representing the US sensitively and accurately should be the easiest thing in the world for a movie made in America by Americans But the version of the US in FB 1 was honestly pretty bad

And then putting FB2 in France was just terrible
