Heh, I wonder how it will correlate with certain "progressive" circles wanting Rowling's blood?

Seeing these three together again after 10 years puts a big smile on my face.

Do I spot the actor who plays Lupin? Maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me, I loved his character. Its a shame the guy who played the new Dumbledore won't be attending, or Alan Rickman ( But he sadly passed ) This poster makes me wish we'd get a series of them being adults raising their kids.

Two real-life Quidditch leagues are now changing their names to distance themselves from Rowling.

And still man wouldn't be able to become women and Rowling will still be a creator of Harry Potter.

Those infantile losers can do whatever they want, but they can't change THE truth.

She should sue them now for stealing the game and making it into an officially backed thing. And not because her opinions are sound, but rather because she's been tribally punished for her perspective which is more wrong than any opinions she has.

Hypocrites in a way, if they REALLY want to distance themselves from Rowling then just abandon the whole thing altogether. Shut the whole **** down. They're still supporting Harry Potter but under a new name.

My favorite thing about the whole attempt to cancel / unperson Rowling is that a lot of SJWs were raised on Harry Potter and some of them even projected their warped values and ideals on it. It should be noted that Rowling actively supported them at the time, so this situation in part is her fault as well.

And now, she is their archenemy and they don't know what to do. As typical imbeciles and consumers though and thorough they can't just let go off HP so they pretend it is somehow separated from Rowling. Which highlights their stupidity.

It's simple, man. The left is largely populated of low-EQ, emotional midgets who derive satisfaction from seeing anyone punished who, by their own warped perspectives, have been a "violator" they see as anyway connected to their own harmed lives. It's an even more gratifying target for them if the target is perceived to be more successful or intelligent than they are.

That's the psychology. It's really that simple. It's a psychology driven by fear of existence and vengeance for their life-anger. The banal $#!(tbags of Earth.

She is going to have some part in the special.

Harry Potter creator and author J.K. Rowling will have a small part in Return to Hogwarts, despite all the controversy swirling around her.

WarnerMedia confirmed in a press release that "comments" from Rowling will be included in the special, though it had originally left her name off of reunion announcements and marketing materials.

Those comments, EW can confirm, are taken from archival interviews from years earlier. The writer was invited to participate in a new interview for the reunion, but sources tell EW the team behind Return to Hogwarts felt that the previously shot footage was more than adequate.

Aren't they also doing it because WB holds the rights and they'd either have to pay to use the Quidditch name or risk being sued?

Cowards.
So much for "standing up to women". Guess, rights of rapey psychos supersede those of women. Patriarchy? I hardly knew ye!

Watching Return To Hogwarts makes me wanna go through the books and movies again.

It’s such a heartfelt reunion and it’s also sad looking back that many of the actors died; we’ve got to cherish the ones that we have now.
