"The best chances we have of success is to completely adapt the books." "Are you going to do that?" "No. And I haven't read the books." What a world we live in.
I'm gonna be honest with you. The money guys throwing hundreds of millions at this project didn't hire a guy that can't be bothered to read a few children's books without fully expecting the project to fail. I couldn't tell you exactly what they're trying to accomplish with this, but they definitely aren't trying to make a profit. I guess you'll have to figure out on your own what they want out of this.
@@sn5806Yeah, at this point it's just forcing the agenda down people's throats, which I don't understand. Social engineering is too expensive even for the trillionaires and at that point they're just losing their credibility... How much more do they have to lose before realizing that people aren't budging?
It can be done, but it's rare. The only example that comes to mind is Kubrick's The Shining. But he was a genius. There aren't any like him in Hollywood today. Just a bunch of hacks who think painting by numbers with diversity is good storytelling.
I’m starting to believe that these companies are trying to kill all beloved franchises, whether it’s from tv shows and movies to video games on purpose to force whatever crap they want to release afterwards. Narcissism, ego, propaganda and corporate greed are going to kill the arts to funnel us into whatever entertainment slop they want to put out. We truly live in hell.
I agree, I do think it’s largely on purpose. It serves to demoralize a population when you have no heroes to look up to, no hope left. They want to make everything as shallow and vain as they are.
I question the Corporate Greed aspect. It seems like an utter invasion of Corporations, to me. I know(we know) big money has been infiltrated by the Cult. Majority ownership(wife of guy who was former owner?, I forget her name) has invested all her efforts and funds into The Message™️.
I'm 100% with you on that. These companies pay $10s of millions for the IP and then completely destroy and disrespect them. If they just wanted to create slop that nobody wants to see then there is no reason to pay millions to trash beloved IPs!
- You already have the HP movies and don't need to watch this series. - Current Hollywood has already shown that they don't care about other people's IPs. - Writers already admitted to not reading the books and not caring about the source material. - They'll do what they did to Netflix Witcher, as they do with this, and completely rewrite someone else's work. As a fellow story writer, I'm disgusted with Hollywood thinking they can toss people's IPs into the garbage and them thinking they can do better. You know JK Rowling isn't going to accept this, and they'll literally spend millions of dollars in hopes of trying to give her a middle finger. This series is an easy pass for me.
the real problem is that shes outspoken against some liberal ideas like trans issues, if she had been a loud speaker for them these writers would be saying how good she is and praising her
@@username.exenotfound2943 wrong, go read all her tweets from the "controversy" she has no issues with trans people, her issue is people are delusional, women are women, men are men yes a female can pretend to be a male(or a male can pretend to be a female), but that doesn't mean they ARE, its just pretend a trans female cant give birth, and a trans man cant impregnate a female, females produce milk, trans females don't, women have periods, trans women don't, women are biologically weaker then men, trans women are biologically the same strength as men not to mention the entire bone structure and bone density and a bunch of other stuff, such as men and womens brains are completely different, if you take a males brain and a females brain, you can EASILY see physical differences without even being a scientist
Imma write this here for any dumbass smartypants that tries to say that this isnt the quote: its called "paraphrasing" and what this commenter wrote its exactly what tolkien meant by writing that
> If you’re frightened of dying, and you’re holding on, you’ll see devils tearing your life away. If you’ve made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth.
Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Ghostbusters and now Harry Potter... I have never considered myself a fan of any of them, so I offer my sincerest condolences that you all that enjoy said franchises have to repeatedly go through this
Eh, fan fiction made 20 years after the original doesn't perturb me that much because I don't watch it. Ghostbusters is still a fantastic movie, the prequels pre-ruined Star Wars for me more just by illustrating that Star Wars really only had 2 particularly good movies out of 6, Trek lost me after DS9, Doctor Who is still that quirky British sci fi show with charmingly bad special effects my dad used to watch on PBS, LOTR is still the same classic trilogy I read as a teenager. Most of the stuff I liked growing up was *original* , not reboots, rehashes, spinoffs, adaptations, etc, and I'm much more inclined to gamble my time on something original that looks good now.
@@treelineresearch3387the tough thing is we are living in an era where the companies that own the rights to these franchises are trying to bury the source material. If given the chance they would remove access to the originals and prevent people from enjoying them. It's happening partially in the games industry with some titles. History is being destroyed, not preserved and it's sickening.
They thought they could write better than Tolkien, Martin, Riordan, and now they've come for Rowling. And after she ALREADY made the live-action a success.
The ironic thing about Riordan (assuming you're referring to the PJO TV series) is that it was Riordan who decided that he needed to make the original material better and in doing so angered a decent portion of the fanbase.
Don’t forget The Wheel of Time. Brandon Sanderson lobbied so hard to see the integrity of Robert Jordan’s world respected, but the showrunners refused almost all of his offers to help. Let that sink in. The man who FINISHED and SAVED one of the greatest fantasy series of all time offered to help the people adapting to TV, and they refused. And then it sucked. Twice.
Asmon got this wrong. Rowling has final call on literally everything, the guy literally says that in the interview clip. She has an iron clad unprecedented amount of control over the IP because the books were such an incredible success studios we're fighting over the IP; Rowling could essentially name the terms.
It's happened with literally every book adaptation. I think the only show that it didn't happen to was Game of Thrones seasons 1-4. Those seasons faithfully adapted the source material. After season 4, the material didn't exist because the book wasn't finished (still isn't). Not that I am excusing the abysmal writing we got in seasons 5-8. I can't think of another faithful adaptation, maybe you can.
No - JK only sold film rights and some other small agreements. She still maintains a lot of creative control. When it came to protecting her IP and licensing she has been one of the smartest authors that's ever lived.
I just don’t understand the economics behind paying for an IP just to alter the material and piss off the fan base you just paid for. When will studios get it through their thick skulls that: fan service = happy customers + increased profits
It's for propaganda purposes, they do not care about money. They have an agenda to push, its actually really cheap for them if you look at it that way.
They want both, commercial success and the approval of their peers, so they fool themselves into thinking that they can make an modernised (or „elevated“) version that is still popular due to brand recognition.
@@gnarlin4964They can't afford it. Warner bros is massively in debt. Like tens of billions in debt. They are literally in danger of going bankrupt this past year.
The LEAST you could do before making any movie or show is READ the source material. That's the least you could do. And YES, I'd want JK involved making a Harry Potter show.
@@Matt-jc2ml Well it wouldn't matter wouldn't it? It's her OWN STORY. If they have creative differences, follow her or don't make the show at all, it's her story
I'm not sure JK is a great screenwriter, but she absolutely should be consulted every step of the way to make sure what the actual screenwriters produce is authentic to the original source material.
Picture this: black Weasleys, but they retain the ginger hair. 😂 God I hope so bad they completely and utterly f up this series so I can sit back and enjoy the absolute chaos for once. Fingers crossed.
@@dissuede6949 If they fuck up HP, there will be hell for real, this has a fanbase that can put to shame (on how lowd they will be I mean) LoTR and Star Wars both together, Twitter would go crazy
I can't even get past "I didn't read the books" part. Then again Kamala Harris just came out on the "Call me Daddy" podcast basically saying she doesn't know what the selective service draft is. In 2024 homework is optional.
Hogwarts Legacy is a perfect example of creating new stories while respecting the source material.(Seriously, you literally like feel you're in new Harry Potter movie in that game) What makes this writer bad is that all he has to do is adapt the source material to a TV show - he doesn't even have to create a new story and he has complete access resources and the IP to do it. If this show fails, it will be their own fault.
That game was for the true fans... this show is written by and meant for the "fans' that boycotted,threw tantrums and sent death threats. WB is in deep shit financially,you'd think they would cut this shit out and try to make money.....
@@aj.j5833You play the game? It was actually really good.. and I’m the biggest anti-woke guy you’ll find. They got probably 70% of the potential out of it, which is pretty good these days
She literally at the start she said she believes a woman is a menstruates. As in a biological woman's uterus basic function. That's legit all she said. Then she got death threats and people screaming at her for Cho Chang's name being 'Chinese sounding' when for the time she had multiple ethnicities in her books as kind of socially 'before it's time' the only people who don't like her are confused people.
Every producer and showrunner in Hollywood needs to be fired and banned from moviemaking, and new blood that respects original IPs needs to be brought in. How many fucking times do we have to go through this.
Ronald D. Moore pitched a show to HBO that would take place in the Harry Potter universe about Aurors. Basically a dark adult cop drama that takes place in the wizard world.
It was likely cancelled and him blacklisted, because the premise wasn't woke or diverse and would not fit the so-called "Modern Audience" which is so vital, but never seems to exist when it needs to.
I'm surprised JK or someone else hasn't attempted the story of James, Lily and the gang while they were at Hogwarts. There is soooooo much to be explored in The Wizarding World but all they've done is some fantastic beast movies (snore!) and what appears to be a failure waiting to happen with the original books.
Nobody who hires for a franchise like this asks questions like, "did you read the books?" Often because they don't view these questions as qualifying. After all, they didn't read the books either.
"JKR isn't a writer, she's a bigot" -Literally their thought process. If you disagree with the, they don't even consider you human. Therefore you have no rights, you have no property, and everything you have and make is now theirs to do with (or corrupt or destroy) as they please (maybe both).
Because companies these days have this wild idea that everything will make them a quick buck (Even if it turns out to be a massive flop), hence why they keep hiring people with no talent because they're cheap...
Not an activitist per say .id say he's just lazy and doesn't like the story . I read all the books in highschool cause I loved it and it wasn't even my job ... How are you Gona write a story and not read the books when its your job ... The level of incompetence is baffling... At least read the books and say you'll change stuff
It’s one thing for an actor to have not read the books, AKA the second Dumbledore actor, because they still have to read the script. It’s an entirely different thing for the person who is directing the thing to have not read the books.
This already happened with House of the Dragon Season 2. Season 1 was good but Season 2 was so bad and deviated from the source material so far that George R.R Martin wrote a Scathing Blog Post spoiling the next seasons because of how bad their plans are moving forward and talks about how "Toxic" the new changes are to the show if it continues on. George only deleted the blogpost because he was warned not to do this or he'll face legal actions.
It genuinely seems that it's impossible to make any tv show or movie based on any beloved source material without these modern "writers" butchering it.
That's because they hired people who worked on The Acolyte to write it also one of the showrunners, Miguel Sapochnik who'd had a hand in some of the better parts of GOT left after season 1 leaving it to Ryan Condal who only had a three project to his name prior to this and none of them were great.
You know what's hilarious when it comes to GRRM? He will post a blog expressing his contempt for the source material being ignored for HotD, but when fans were expressing our contempt with the direction GoT was taken post season 4, George lambasted us. He may be a talented writer but he's a giant hypocritical piece of you know what. I do agree with everything he wrote in that blog though and am not looking forward to future HotD seasons in the slightest.
I'm 39 and read them I'm sure I'm older this this clown the last one didn't come out till I was out of college but it didn't stop me from going to a midnight release picking it up and reading it all in one sitting just to avoid internet spoilers that I knew were coming
The comment and the reply talk about the Harry Potter books like they're world-wide religious texts that everyone must read, lest their souls be damned for eternity lol. But an adapter should know his source material well.
@@feetfungus19 No? I'm just saying someone who's 47 years old should of had time to read the books of the thing he's adapting. Idk where you got from my comment that I thought the Harry Potter books were some religious texts everyone needs to read. They don't need to, but Andy does if he is going to make a show adapting the books.
“Hey, i have the books of Harry Potter in my hands. Do you see all those books Jk rolling wrote?” *Uses abra kadabra on the books, making them explote.* “I will make it on my own way because i don’t like them and i can do it better.”
Leaked Plot: Daisy Ridley will play Harriet Plotter, the strongest wizard of all time with No training and later she will find out that she’s Voldemorts kid in the end
He said all I needed to hear. “The pleasure in writing that is not for me”. Then why is he writing a HP series prequel adaptation of the book to begin with? These people are activists, not passionate creatives. 😢
"Just adapt and we're banking" "Actually... I think I can do better 🤔" Always worked out. I mean why wouldn't he wanna try? It's not like Harry Potter books sold well or anything...
Eh, no? There is no more new content but that doesn’t mean the original content is gone forever. Would you call Dark Souls a dead franchise now that FromSoft moves on from it, or Bloodborne a dead game because Sony ignored it and refused to return it to FromSoft? Same deal here. HP is still there for you to read and watch, it’s just that there is no new good content for it and tbf, that is fine. All things are supposed to end. No franchise can go on forever without becoming a hot pile of shit (other than a few like South Park, but those tends to satire contemporary issues so they can be milked nonstop)
I don't even hate the idea of a HP tv series. What's insane to me is that the movies ended only like a decade ago. The body is literally still warm and they're already rebooting. It'd be one thing to be a spinoff, but this is legit just a rewrite of the books and everything that happened in the movies.
"making it like the books would be an instant success and everyone would love it but i dont wanna read cause its too hard so im going to make up some random story instead"
Guess what all of the recent successful live action adaptations of animated or book series have had in common? The original author was heavily involved in the creative direction. Guess what the adaptations that people disliked had in common? They did not include the original creator, and in some cases the original author publicly distanced themselves from the series.
These are the top selling fiction books of all-time, by a huge margin. Your job is to help adapt them for the screen as faithfully as possible, maybe with some polish/upgrading the dialogue for nostalgic viewers, who are now well into adulthood. Add in some changes the original author wants to make, if there are any, and correcting logical mistakes that don't change the story much. That's basically it.
Why not their own magical wizard story call it something else and not use the Franchise Name. Too many writers do that and failed cuz theyre not the original
Because they know that it will bomb hard because no one will care to watch it and so that's why they're trying piggyback off of beloved pre-established ips that will guarantee at least the die hard fans to check out. Even if it does still bomb.
Because no one is interested in their stories by themselves. Velma is a good example of this: by their own admission, they didn't originally want to write a Scooby-Doo entry, but Warner Bros wouldn't consider an original IP when they're already hemorrhaging money (and when Kaling's own record is so lackluster). Gambling on something new is a risk, so companies instead prefer to keep reusing IPs that, in their eyes, have a preexisting fan base to milk for more money because it's safer. They don't recognize that this isn't very effective for long because they don't understand these properties as beloved franchises with a specific vibe dear to millions of people, they view it as a brand: a name and basic aesthetic that can be plastered over any old thing and rake in money.
...at this point I don't care anymore. I love watching companies lose unfathomable amounts of money more than I do caring about IP's. The next generation is starting to do some cool stuff so who cares.
nah, they will not make cool stuff because they can't make cool stuff. we are in the "Third Generation" which everything they made is the opposite of The Hand of Midas
I like how B.Sanderson explained why he liked how the director of the third harry potter movie adapted it vs the first two(which were more book faithful), which is an unpopular opinion but does make sense to me. With the changes made in the third movie, it defiantly lost some connections to the books, that said with that it allowed it to really lean more into the dark themes that were starting to come out in this part of the series and kept faithful to the spirit of the book. That type of adaptation is respectable, and understandable. You are changing the the way it was delivered, because of the different medium but in order to put across the same type of character/feeling the book would have but might not have hit the same way as on film(you can have 3-4 characters in a room doing exposition in a book, and it be exiting but in a show that would be boring af in most cases). With this type of creator, i don't feel like you will get an adaptation like that. They aren't trying to make changes to better present what the book presented, but to present their own version of things and the intent completely changes the direction/result.
So long as they stay faithful to the theme, major plot points, and the characters, they can deviate on minor plot points and scenes. This is why the Harry Potter movies worked so well, but they did have a few missteps. For instance, I found Dumbledore from movies 4 and 5 to be out-of-character at times. In Goblet of Fire, he would wear his emotions on his sleeve in several scenes, something book Dumbledore would certainly not have done. In Order of the Phoenix, he literally shouts angrily at the students "don't you all have studying to do?!" In what world would book Dumbledore lash out like that at his students?
@@dereka5017I'm still salty about how much of Ron's own virtues and achievements were stripped out and given to Hermione because she was their darling.
That's crazy, the only reason to justify a new series based off a already successful series of movies is to make it a 1:1 of the books. Now what your watching aint even gonna be Harry Potter but fan fiction from a guy who doesn't even know the original source.
same if it sucks oh well I can just watch the movies or read the books again nothing of value is lost for me, but I'm not the one spending millions if not billions on this
joker 2 fire, your brain was to small to understand the directors point lol, arthur was never the joker, hes the one who "hands" the torch to the real joker.

Lmao this is literally the Halo series where the writers said they didn’t play the games and disrespected the source material. Look how well that turned out. One of the worst video game adaptations I’ve ever seen.

It can be done, but it's rare. The only example that comes to mind is Kubrick's The Shining. But he was a genius. There aren't any like him in Hollywood today. Just a bunch of hacks who think painting by numbers with diversity is good storytelling.
I’m starting to believe that these companies are trying to kill all beloved franchises, whether it’s from tv shows and movies to video games on purpose to force whatever crap they want to release afterwards. Narcissism, ego, propaganda and corporate greed are going to kill the arts to funnel us into whatever entertainment slop they want to put out. We truly live in hell.
I agree, I do think it’s largely on purpose. It serves to demoralize a population when you have no heroes to look up to, no hope left. They want to make everything as shallow and vain as they are.
Blackrock and the like wish to COMPEL us to accept new ideologies.
I question the Corporate Greed aspect. It seems like an utter invasion of Corporations, to me.
I know(we know) big money has been infiltrated by the Cult. Majority ownership(wife of guy who was former owner?, I forget her name) has invested all her efforts and funds into The Message™️.
I'm 100% with you on that. These companies pay $10s of millions for the IP and then completely destroy and disrespect them. If they just wanted to create slop that nobody wants to see then there is no reason to pay millions to trash beloved IPs!
Rick & Morty just released a cocomelon remix they call "anime".
- You already have the HP movies and don't need to watch this series.
- Current Hollywood has already shown that they don't care about other people's IPs.
- Writers already admitted to not reading the books and not caring about the source material.
- They'll do what they did to Netflix Witcher, as they do with this, and completely rewrite someone else's work.
As a fellow story writer, I'm disgusted with Hollywood thinking they can toss people's IPs into the garbage and them thinking they can do better. You know JK Rowling isn't going to accept this, and they'll literally spend millions of dollars in hopes of trying to give her a middle finger. This series is an easy pass for me.

Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Ghostbusters and now Harry Potter...
I have never considered myself a fan of any of them, so I offer my sincerest condolences that you all that enjoy said franchises have to repeatedly go through this
Eh, fan fiction made 20 years after the original doesn't perturb me that much because I don't watch it.
Ghostbusters is still a fantastic movie, the prequels pre-ruined Star Wars for me more just by illustrating that Star Wars really only had 2 particularly good movies out of 6, Trek lost me after DS9, Doctor Who is still that quirky British sci fi show with charmingly bad special effects my dad used to watch on PBS, LOTR is still the same classic trilogy I read as a teenager.
Most of the stuff I liked growing up was *original* , not reboots, rehashes, spinoffs, adaptations, etc, and I'm much more inclined to gamble my time on something original that looks good now.
Yeah, its getting annoying more so than sad.
I avoided all of it by not watching it, and it seems it was the right move. Genuinely happy I just ignored all those productions.
The Witcher
@@treelineresearch3387the tough thing is we are living in an era where the companies that own the rights to these franchises are trying to bury the source material. If given the chance they would remove access to the originals and prevent people from enjoying them. It's happening partially in the games industry with some titles. History is being destroyed, not preserved and it's sickening.
They thought they could write better than Tolkien, Martin, Riordan, and now they've come for Rowling. And after she ALREADY made the live-action a success.
The ironic thing about Riordan (assuming you're referring to the PJO TV series) is that it was Riordan who decided that he needed to make the original material better and in doing so angered a decent portion of the fanbase.
Don’t forget The Wheel of Time. Brandon Sanderson lobbied so hard to see the integrity of Robert Jordan’s world respected, but the showrunners refused almost all of his offers to help.
Let that sink in. The man who FINISHED and SAVED one of the greatest fantasy series of all time offered to help the people adapting to TV, and they refused. And then it sucked. Twice.
Asmon got this wrong. Rowling has final call on literally everything, the guy literally says that in the interview clip. She has an iron clad unprecedented amount of control over the IP because the books were such an incredible success studios we're fighting over the IP; Rowling could essentially name the terms.
This is exactly what happened with The Witcher on Netflix and we see how that turned out...
It's happened with literally every book adaptation. I think the only show that it didn't happen to was Game of Thrones seasons 1-4. Those seasons faithfully adapted the source material. After season 4, the material didn't exist because the book wasn't finished (still isn't). Not that I am excusing the abysmal writing we got in seasons 5-8. I can't think of another faithful adaptation, maybe you can.

No - JK only sold film rights and some other small agreements. She still maintains a lot of creative control. When it came to protecting her IP and licensing she has been one of the smartest authors that's ever lived.
There will ABSOLUTELY be a trancel among the main cast.
I just don’t understand the economics behind paying for an IP just to alter the material and piss off the fan base you just paid for. When will studios get it through their thick skulls that: fan service = happy customers + increased profits
What I want to know is: how the fuck do they keep being able to afford to loose so much fucking money!?
It's for propaganda purposes, they do not care about money. They have an agenda to push, its actually really cheap for them if you look at it that way.
They want both, commercial success and the approval of their peers, so they fool themselves into thinking that they can make an modernised (or „elevated“) version that is still popular due to brand recognition.
@@gnarlin4964They can't afford it. Warner bros is massively in debt. Like tens of billions in debt. They are literally in danger of going bankrupt this past year.

Here I thought Hogwarts Legacy would have brought about a new era for the franchise but I forgot people like that exist.
Hogwarts Legacy is a perfect example of creating new stories while respecting the source material.(Seriously, you literally like feel you're in new Harry Potter movie in that game) What makes this writer bad is that all he has to do is adapt the source material to a TV show - he doesn't even have to create a new story and he has complete access resources and the IP to do it. If this show fails, it will be their own fault.

It was likely cancelled and him blacklisted, because the premise wasn't woke or diverse and would not fit the so-called "Modern Audience" which is so vital, but never seems to exist when it needs to.
I'm surprised JK or someone else hasn't attempted the story of James, Lily and the gang while they were at Hogwarts. There is soooooo much to be explored in The Wizarding World but all they've done is some fantastic beast movies (snore!) and what appears to be a failure waiting to happen with the original books.
@@zimfan101 Maybe she's worried she can't make anything original that all the Marauder's fanfiction didn't already do /jk
Nobody who hires for a franchise like this asks questions like, "did you read the books?" Often because they don't view these questions as qualifying. After all, they didn't read the books either.

Naah fam. Ya'll HP-fans are cooked.
Already too late my guy...
This already happened with House of the Dragon Season 2.
Season 1 was good but Season 2 was so bad and deviated from the source material so far that George R.R Martin wrote a Scathing Blog Post spoiling the next seasons because of how bad their plans are moving forward and talks about how "Toxic" the new changes are to the show if it continues on.
George only deleted the blogpost because he was warned not to do this or he'll face legal actions.
It genuinely seems that it's impossible to make any tv show or movie based on any beloved source material without these modern "writers" butchering it.
That's because they hired people who worked on The Acolyte to write it also one of the showrunners, Miguel Sapochnik who'd had a hand in some of the better parts of GOT left after season 1 leaving it to Ryan Condal who only had a three project to his name prior to this and none of them were great.
You know what's hilarious when it comes to GRRM? He will post a blog expressing his contempt for the source material being ignored for HotD, but when fans were expressing our contempt with the direction GoT was taken post season 4, George lambasted us. He may be a talented writer but he's a giant hypocritical piece of you know what.
I do agree with everything he wrote in that blog though and am not looking forward to future HotD seasons in the slightest.
the screen writer thinks he can out write J.K Rowling... the series is fucked. the arrogance of these screen writers.

Same deal here. HP is still there for you to read and watch, it’s just that there is no new good content for it and tbf, that is fine. All things are supposed to end. No franchise can go on forever without becoming a hot pile of shit (other than a few like South Park, but those tends to satire contemporary issues so they can be milked nonstop)
I don't even hate the idea of a HP tv series. What's insane to me is that the movies ended only like a decade ago. The body is literally still warm and they're already rebooting. It'd be one thing to be a spinoff, but this is legit just a rewrite of the books and everything that happened in the movies.

Guess what all of the recent successful live action adaptations of animated or book series have had in common? The original author was heavily involved in the creative direction.
Guess what the adaptations that people disliked had in common? They did not include the original creator, and in some cases the original author publicly distanced themselves from the series.
Messing up with Harry Potter fans by wanting to make significant changes while not reading the novels, the shows gonna bomb
These are the top selling fiction books of all-time, by a huge margin. Your job is to help adapt them for the screen as faithfully as possible, maybe with some polish/upgrading the dialogue for nostalgic viewers, who are now well into adulthood. Add in some changes the original author wants to make, if there are any, and correcting logical mistakes that don't change the story much. That's basically it.
Why not their own magical wizard story call it something else and not use the Franchise Name. Too many writers do that and failed cuz theyre not the original
Because they know that it will bomb hard because no one will care to watch it and so that's why they're trying piggyback off of beloved pre-established ips that will guarantee at least the die hard fans to check out. Even if it does still bomb.
Because no one is interested in their stories by themselves. Velma is a good example of this: by their own admission, they didn't originally want to write a Scooby-Doo entry, but Warner Bros wouldn't consider an original IP when they're already hemorrhaging money (and when Kaling's own record is so lackluster). Gambling on something new is a risk, so companies instead prefer to keep reusing IPs that, in their eyes, have a preexisting fan base to milk for more money because it's safer. They don't recognize that this isn't very effective for long because they don't understand these properties as beloved franchises with a specific vibe dear to millions of people, they view it as a brand: a name and basic aesthetic that can be plastered over any old thing and rake in money.
Isnt JK Rowling involved in the show as an executive producer? How did she let this person get involved? This is bonkers.
The cursed child round 2
Please learn from One Piece Live Action, where the showrunner is a huge fan of OP, and respect every Oda decision on the show.

...at this point I don't care anymore. I love watching companies lose unfathomable amounts of money more than I do caring about IP's. The next generation is starting to do some cool stuff so who cares.
Like what? What does the “next generation” have except RUclips cringe addictions now?
nah, they will not make cool stuff because they can't make cool stuff.
we are in the "Third Generation" which everything they made is the opposite of The Hand of Midas
I like how B.Sanderson explained why he liked how the director of the third harry potter movie adapted it vs the first two(which were more book faithful), which is an unpopular opinion but does make sense to me. With the changes made in the third movie, it defiantly lost some connections to the books, that said with that it allowed it to really lean more into the dark themes that were starting to come out in this part of the series and kept faithful to the spirit of the book. That type of adaptation is respectable, and understandable. You are changing the the way it was delivered, because of the different medium but in order to put across the same type of character/feeling the book would have but might not have hit the same way as on film(you can have 3-4 characters in a room doing exposition in a book, and it be exiting but in a show that would be boring af in most cases). With this type of creator, i don't feel like you will get an adaptation like that. They aren't trying to make changes to better present what the book presented, but to present their own version of things and the intent completely changes the direction/result.
So long as they stay faithful to the theme, major plot points, and the characters, they can deviate on minor plot points and scenes. This is why the Harry Potter movies worked so well, but they did have a few missteps. For instance, I found Dumbledore from movies 4 and 5 to be out-of-character at times. In Goblet of Fire, he would wear his emotions on his sleeve in several scenes, something book Dumbledore would certainly not have done. In Order of the Phoenix, he literally shouts angrily at the students "don't you all have studying to do?!" In what world would book Dumbledore lash out like that at his students?
