I just remembered that the lady on the Gryffindor common room entrance painting was literally called "The Fat Lady."
I'm surprised none of the tumblrites have thought to use this as ammo against her, though it's probably because none of them have actually read the books.

On the plus side, when Rowling eventually reminds them that she exists by revealing that she was actually a genderqueer asexual panromantic muslim, it'll backfire.

Knowing tumblr, they'll probably venerate her as a fat positive representation or something
Remember when Sirius Black sexually assaulted the fat lady? #ListenAndBelieve

There are quite a number of fans on Tumblr defending her, though as well, fortunately. I feel so bad for her. Claudia Kim just seems so psyched about the whole thing.
I just hope fans don't drive the poor woman off of Twitter like they has happened with other actors and actresses. Fandoms are just brutal, and the movie hasn't even fucking COME OUT YET.

The whole Dumbledore thing -- for one, it's the second in a series of FIVE, all they said is he won't be "explicitly" gay, and there's a scene where he sees a young Grindelwald in the Mirror of Erised.

It could be that Nagini is a tragic character, or something of that nature. Who knows? It sounds really interesting and I for one am really looking foreward to it. God, I hate fandoms.




(YES, I'm a HP fan. Because I think it's an entertaining story. I hate the fandom, though. It's a fucking story. It's supposed to be, you know, fun? If you want your stupid headcanon, go read fanfiction. Nobody's forcing you to go see the fucking movies. Jesus)

Voldemort was already super not into Bellatrix constantly grinding up against him. Why on earth would he add ANOTHER woman to his collection of followers?

Rowling is seriously just making this shit up as she goes along. It's like a constant game of Calvinball but instead of moving on and maybe trying to make a new book series to m.ilk, she just continuously writes in meaningless shit to fuck up her own original multi-billion franchise.

Rowling is a hack and deserves to be betrayed and cannibalized by the people she decided to side with on socials on a sad, sad attempt to look woke and morally superior.

More people like her deserve to get a taste of their own medicine.

Too bad they will most likely not get it. She lives like all people like her: a coddled and delusional person in a heavily gated and safe community without experiencing what real life is. Her and pretty much all the clowns that decide to go "woke" for the sake of pleasing people that cannot be pleased deserve much worse

The only person I feel sorry for is Claudia Kim since she actually wants to be in the role, I just hope the autism from the SJWs and the fanbase don't run her off the internet . Warner Bros badly wants this series (since they're the ones who wanted 5 movies to begin with) to be the next big thing since and hope the Harry Potter fanbase will jump into it.

As for JK Rowling, she's just adding shit and fucking up the canon again a la George Lucas in order to expand the series especially with that shitty play/book Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I'm also glad that the same people that she sides with are constantly bitching at her over nothing and it serves her right acting so smug and morally superior. So many of the constantly offended just been attacking her for long and it never gets old. I just wonder what will they get offended about in the next movie.

I totally agree with a lot of people.
Jk really messed things up when she decided to add "extra" tibits of information that would have been nice to talk about on a podcast or in a small, "character info" book.

Not doing it on twitter and saying shit like "oh yeah, nagini was totally a woman, and I soo knew this 20 years ago."

Okay? Why not just have it mention in pottermore or as a small mention in the last book? Doing so right now, doesnt really make her look really good to her fans.

The fandom can be great, but it really sucks that most feel the need to pick out unnecessary things from the book. Like Dumbledore is gay, they wanted JK to outright state it, but during that time period she couldnt and most people just couldnt understand

Its the same about the lack of poc in her books. You have to understand JKs life in the UK and who she was surrounded by when she was growing up but people just dont get it.

It really is best to not cater to sjws because you're just going to run around in circles doing nothing to satisfy them.

Actually, it WAS mentioned on Pottermore. I think Kim was the first person to reveal it on Twitter, not Rowling.
There's an interview from years ago where she mentions something about Voldemort's rebirth or something, and that she'll reveal it later. Apparently her editor wanted to vomit.
(Again, I'll confess to being a big fan. I don't care if that makes me something of a LOLcow. But I realize that it's, you know, FICTION.)

I think some of this is just ignorance -- like how freak shows worked in the past. (They're not putting her in a cage because she's a "dragon lady". That's just how freak show performers did their thing. And freak show performers weren't looked down on -- quite the opposite). Likewise, some people misunderstand the term "milk a snake" and get this image of Nagini having tits or something.
(To milk a snake, you clamp its jaws over a cup, to squeeze the venom sacs. It's how they create anti-venom.)

Rowling put a LOT of actual folklore and such in her books -- hippogriffs, veela (vila), sphinx, kelpies, kappas, phoenix, manticore, chimaera, centaurs, etc. I don't see how this is any different.
