Yeah a big part of JK Rowling going off the rails was how the Fantastic Beasts movies are her trying to be taken seriously doing gritty adult material -- making the Harry Potter universe deal with sex, politics, the Holocaust, etc. -- and people generally not buying ithttps://twitter.com/ErrantNerd/status/1313010045789982720 …

Partly because JKR doing it herself lacks the certain flavor of detachment and irony the act of "writing Harry Potter fanfic" inherently carries -- the fact that you *can't* take yourself too seriously while being a fanfic writer But also she just objectively sucks and is bad

Like writing a *good* Harry Potter fanfic that actually had to be canon and that you could give to WB to make a big-budget movie out of would be really hard You'd have to make all these compromises most fanfic writers would chafe at But hell I could still do it better than her
