With all the stephen kike shilling, lets get back to the REAL most overrated book to film adaptaiton of all time.
>the careers of the main cast of harry potter all died after the series ended >Fantastic Breasts and Where to Find them the movie was a shitty cashgrab >her "sequel" play that she wrote for harry potter and the cursed child turned out to be absolute crap and everyone shat on them >the non-harry potter, "adult" novels that she wrote afterwards all were abysmally shit >the books that she published under a pseudonym failed to gain any recognition and undersaled massively
Can we agree she is a talentless hack and has never produced anything of quality?

Incorrect on all counts.
Well done kid, you outdone yourself.
Alexander Perry
Even if it's true, why are you so obsessed with it? Why do you want to prove other people that she's a 'hack'? Why do you want to insult her?
Samuel Nelson
>he didn't grow up reading the books
feel bad for your childhood famo. these books were fantastic and I still read them to this day.
Lucas Robinson
This 'talentless hack' is half a billion richer than you for pumping out such supposed shit. If she can earn so much by being so crap why aren't you as rich?

Where the fuck is the pasta guy
I only came here to read it ffs

Go home, son. You are out of your depth.

How typical that a millennial would suggest a J.K Rowling 'novel'. After all, she is the author of one of the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises. Each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.
Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>a-at least the books were good though "No!" The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."
I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Instead of addressing the matter at hand in an argumentative fashion, you try to make some point at a meta level that, in truth, is completely interchangeable with any subject matter. For example, if OP were to criticize a bag of chips, you could say "even if it's true that the chips suck, why are you so obsessed with them?". Basically, the way you are approaching this is completely devoid of content or meaning, and you sound a lot less intelligent than you think.

>the careers of the main cast of harry potter all died after the series ended Emma Watson is huge right now. Daniel Radcliffe is enjoying doing more artsy stuff. Rest don't have to work because Harry Potter made them enough money.
>Fantastic Breasts and Where to Find them the movie was a shitty cashgrab Yep.
>her "sequel" play that she wrote for harry potter and the cursed child turned out to be absolute crap and everyone shat on them She didn't write it. Jack Thorne wrote it. As far as Cursed Child goes, most people agree the first half is great but the second half is garbage.
>the non-harry potter, "adult" novels that she wrote afterwards all were abysmally shit >the books that she published under a pseudonym failed to gain any recognition and undersaled massively Yeah, but at the same time, she came up with Harry Potter and that made her super rich. Doesn't really matter if everything else she does is mediocre to shit.
Christian Gomez
>She didn't write it. Jack Thorne wrote it. She's got writing credit on it, so she at least bears the responsibility for it going out the door. It suggests she either approved of the fanfiction tier shit that went on, or ignored it for the sake of cash grabbing. Given the shit she writes on Pottermore, I'm inclined to go with the former
Xavier Brown
I was really discombobulated by it.
Shit was ridiculous
Dominic Jenkins
Found the Fifty Shades fan.
Xavier Gonzalez
>"stretched his legs."
This never stops being funny. It makes the whole piece.
Caleb Harris
It's funnier when you discover he practically he made it up
Christopher Roberts
The worst part of the movies were how they completely butchered Ron's character and gave all of his positive traits to Hermione, and all of Hermione's negative traits to Ron
Shit, even a lot of Harry's good shit went to Hermione
I guess the writers/directors really wanted to fuck Emma or something
Brody Ross
> careers ended
Emma starred in the highest grossing film of the year (Beauty and the Beast) and has a lot of other shit coming out and so has Daniel. Rupert is the only one of the main trio who was left behind. Two out of three is pretty good.
Even Neville is still to be seen in major productions, he was in that british flick with Emilia Clarke and the paralyzed guy in the wheelchair.
And Tom Felton for example just wasn't that into acting.
Nolan Lee
Book 4-on should've been more adult and their movie adaptations should've all been rated R, they would've been good.
Aaron Lopez
>Be a writer >Every writer on Twitter has their Harry Potter house on their profile >Rowling is the most influential author for an entire generation of wannabe writers
Xavier Brown
Rupert probably could have had a good film career post HP, but I don't think he actually cared.
Colton Reed
I hate this bitch, not for her work though. Despite growing up at a time when alot of people my age read her books I have never read them. Not my thing. No this bitch is the reason my favourite holiday destination is filled with retarded fans of the franchise wanting to ride the hogwarts express. There are other factors for the massive influx of tourists there but she is a large factor. Fuck her.
Jack King
>having a social media
Xavier Young
Harry Potter, like the other YA crazes, was lightning in a bottle, so you probably shouldn't worry. Now I think about it, there hasn't been any YA crazes like Harry Potter, Twilight, His Dark Materials or Hunger Games for a while now.
Ryan Torres
dunno why she's the renowned one but stephanie meyer gets left in the dust
both take established concepts both butcher them both sprinkle on their paper thin plots and call the garnish the meal
it's uninspired, that's the kindest thing i can say about it
Gabriel Adams
Sorry if I'm being dense, but do you mean that Meyer shouldn't be as maligned since Rowling is as bad if not worse, or that Rowling leaves Meyer in the dust in general?
If the former, it's because Meyer made pretty much no effort to hide her self insert fantasy, and shat on the fans when they finally realised it wasn't about them. For all her faults, Rowling was good at pandering to her crowd. Twilight also has a lot more things that are fucked up on a surface level, rather than HP having really fucked up concepts once you think about them
Jose Williams
Why didn't the "wizards" just cast themselves out of the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises? Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.
Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>a-at least the books were good though r-right "No!" The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

She's such annoying bitch. Would hate fuck though.

Literally every point in the OP is false. There is nothing to argue.

holy fuck you are retarded

I don't care about all that, what really pisses me off is her twitter.
