Just remember folks - if you really really can’t go without it, the only ethical way of watching Harry Potter is by donning your hat and parrot. 🦜
This just goes to show how ignorant some fans are! They use OWLS, not parrots! Some people! /s
Austerity Potter
I think the most offensive detail is the tray. In the books the meals are teleported directly onto the tables so you can stay put with your plate and just get whatever you like. No need for a tray to carry your food to your seat at the table
“This year’s feast has been graciously provided by our sister school across the pond, the Gun Violence School of Magic! Their funding was cut again this year, so please be polite.”
I think what people miss here is that this is Americanisation that is the norm in most US movies. While the original movies were distributed by Warner Brothers, the producers were largely British, so were many other important people in the making of that movie. So they apparently stayed their ground in staying closer to the British source material.
In the remake those safeguards are gone. People just realise it because they see the contrast to the original. But look at other US movies, so much of it has fantasy scenarios that are still very “USified”, to not confuse the US audience too much. This is the most obvious when Hollywood takes up a successful foreign movie and makes a complete US “remake”.
Is this real? I thought it was a joke. Is it because they don’t want school kids knowing what a big school meal looks like?
This image makes me kind of wonder how crap a remake of the dinner meal scene from Hook would come out.
I wonder if they went out of their way to hire kids they “know” won’t grow up to be gay.
Did anyone ask for this to be remade?
Iirc this is from regular breakfast in the trailer, not the huge start of the year feast
