Most people say PoA is the best book and movie, so it’s interesting it had the lowest earnings.
I think it depends how much you care about the Marauders/previous generation drama. Fanfic writers and other "influential" fans were always disproportionately loud about that. Might not have translated into success if you were more interested in Harry vs. Voldemort.

Bookwise, PoA has beautifully written forshadowing for Hermione and the time turner. It's actually a pretty complex thing she pulled off, and in a children's book, in a way that is understandable and appealing and exciting to children and adults. That takes a lot of skill as a writer.

It really cannot be understated how gifted of a writer this Woman is.

And yet her crime novels, popular as they are, lack the creativity and aren’t anything special. They’re entertaining, but I hoped for something more.

That's because the grounded setting of those crime novels don't really play into her evident strengths as a writer, that being whimsical fantasy stuff.
I don't think that can be disputed given the success of those books.

Every author got a genre they exceed in but they probably still want to write different things.

PoA is the best book, but I never understood the people who said it was the best movie. It's literally incomprehensible unless you're familiar with the book. Yeah, it's handles the balance between the dark and the whimsical aspects of the wizarding world better than others, but I remember being annoyed how many relevant plot points it omitted when it came out, and I was a kid at the time, so theoretically more inclined to forgive sloppy writing.
The worst movies were 6 (worst book too) and 8. People complain about 4, but I've seen it only once, ages ago, so I don't remember most of it aside from the fact everyone had ridiculous hair there. I dislike HP movies in general; most of the characters were terribly miscast imo and each of them totally ignores the breadcrumbs from the novels that pay off in the next part (even after all books were out), but I'll admit that they did create a very lasting and convincing imagery of the Potterverse.

He's so retarded that if Rowling just invented him as her twitter strawman/a character in one of her books people would say it's too on the nose. Imagine not being able to write a sentence without punching yourself in the face.

The visuals of the movie were based on the book/promo art and the only reason that's burned into my memory is the fact that for the last over 2 decades the upstairs bathroom of my house has for no explainable reason has had a framed pic of norbert coming out of the egg from pre-movie HP era and like some other weird merch from back then. There's like a ceramic hagrid toothbrush holder and some tray that got broken from a fall ages ago shaped like the boat from when they boat over to hogwarts in that one scene with a little book style harry figurine on it.
EDIT: found images of them. I think we also had the owl soap holder but no clue what the fuck happened to it.

I can't find the little weird framed version but I've found listngs for puzzles and posters that use basically the same piece of artwork as the one I'm talking about.

Of all the made up things in this world, asexuality is the most made up. The idea that you're oppressed because you don't have a boyfriend or girlfriend is utterly fucking asinine.

On the more serious side, I've seen some desperate attempts to make "acephobia" into a real thing by citing rape statistics.

It's absolutely true that a lot of men and women experience rape. But you have no way of quantifying that under "they were assaulted because someone found out they were asexual." Completely impossible to prove or disprove. It's pretty gross to try and create a monopoly on rape stats like this by saying it primarily happens to certain orientations.

"Dehumanization" is fucking wild though considering that human beings aren't asexual creatures. I mean if anything, by treating you like some kind of sea sponge we're respecting your orientation.
 
"While you're under my roof, you'll live by my rules. You're 15 and not fucking anyone?! I'm ashamed to call you my daughter, get the fuck out if my house!"

- No one, anywhere, at any time throughout all of recorded history.

I met some women in the military who claimed to be asexual. I'm 99% sure that's code for "I don't want 50 men trying to get in my pants", it's the same principle as the "I have a boyfriend" shutdown when you get hit on at a gym. I can respect that, but trying to claim that people are being oppressed over something that you couldn't possibly know unless you asked is absurd.
 
Council of Geeks really doesn't like talking about J.K. Rowling...


...Except he really obviously and transparently does, because he never misses a chance to, perhaps because grudgewanky videos about the evil Harry Potter lady are actually really popular among the seething trannies that make up his fanbase.

Change the channel name then because the former viewers used to watch this clown for comic book, and media stuff. Not whatever enemy the tranny community has at the moment. Might as well be Council of Tranny seethe.

Dude, this pathetic little midwit's been a tryhard from the beginning. Cosplay as Gryffindor, anyone?

I've said before that the name 'Council of Geeks' doesn't really work as a name when it's just him making the videos, because a council is supposed to be made up of multiple people. He's tried to spin it into a kind of catchphrase to foster a sort of community with his viewers - "You are the council, I'm just the one running the meetings."

Which makes me wonder, as a supposed member of this council, why exactly we have so many meetings about gay tranny shit.

Unfortunately for him, this "You are the council" parasocial bullshit is immediately undercut by the 'title sequence' at the opening of every one of his videos, you can see that, back in the day, before he trooned out and let the AGP take over, he did seem to have friends that he made videos with, even a real, True and Honest female, and it could arguably have been considered much more of a 'council'.

(Also, this is just an autistic aside from me, but the way they're all laid out bugs me more than it should. Why did you block it like that? You couldn't find a fifth guy to stand next to the fat bloke with the lightsaber? You've got a big gap with this one faceless character standing in it. Why are you all to one side? Is it - as I strongly suspect - because Gocktor Who insisted on being in the middle, like the main character?)

The old logo later transitions (heh) into this new one, where all the characters are exactly the same, but now he's got Manic Pixie Dream Girl hair, a pretty purple dress and a sassy autogynesmile. He didn't remove any of the other people, even though they take no further part in anything on the channel.

I genuinely wonder who these other three people were. I think the woman was actually his fiancee at some point, before she saw sense and dumped him for being an insufferable fat tranny. But who are the other two guys? I hope they didn't troon out too.
