    Arthur Chu Retweeted MovieBob Productions

    Eeeeenh The books specifically describe Snape as unattractive and gross ("greasy haired", etc) because Rowling always does that with characters whom we're supposed to dislike He got a bigger leather pants retcon with the movie than Dracohttps://twitter.com/the_moviebob/status/1314756950215843840 …

    He's a domineering Olde Englishman Schoolteacher who browbeats "the popular kids" out of ruthless commitment to academic meritocracy (but will respect your earned A+'s) and he's a Dark Wizard AND he sad gothboy who could be saved/fixed - I feel like this isn't complicated? https://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1314643809288941570 …

        Also he does not pick on the popular kids and stick up for the nerds, Draco Malfoy is his teacher's pet and he's even more abusive to Neville and Hermione than he is to Harry

        Like his big defining "He really is that petty" scene is the moment when Hermione's cursed with her front teeth growing uncontrollably and he goes "I see no difference" There's no way to justify that even just as "having a short temper", that's outright bullying

        I mean this is what I mean, no offense to Bob Maybe not everyone has it as bad as the Snapewives but the "fanon" of what this character represents to them is wild and it's drifted INCREDIBLY far from where the character started

        Like the joke that JKR was "typing one-handed" when writing Snape is ridiculous No she wasn't He's not sexy in the books, not for most of the series, not at all He's awful and you know very clearly he's supposed to be awful (because Jo is not a subtle writer)

        He's written so that you constantly want to see him get punched in the face, he's a sneering oily scumbag prick James' explanation of why he bullies Snape at school ("It's just that I'm offended he exists") isn't supposed to need much elaboration

        The leather pants phenomenon is really powerful and it wildly skews people's memory of everything that came before it, his heroic turn in Book 7 is an attempt at a hard retcon that came off because it was feeding fans' hunger for such a thing

        Funny 'cause Snape-Rickman reminds me of Linehan.

        She refers repeatedly to his hooked nose, if I recall correctly.

        in fanfiction do we most truly confront the death of the author and indeed the death of the text itself, interpretations simultaneously essentially grounded in and entirely untethered from the apparent public meaning of the text(s) in question. this contradiction

        One reason A Very Potter Musical caught fire and sort of defined that era of "fandom culture" is how defiant it was that it could just take these characters and make them into anything else it wanted, and you'd buy it as long as a few details were in place
