    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Apparently not too concerned with winning hearts and minds. One does tire of that farce after a while.

      Education is extremely important.

        If...

        ...She started a new series about Harry's and Ron's children, mixed in a few of the old characters for spice...How well would the books sell?

        Secondly, Radcliffe, Watson and Grint have all said they would do another Pottererverse movie...Check to see who else might be available and spin up some new movies to go with the new books.

        If done well, I'd plop my money on the ticket counter...

          I think it’s played out. Movies and Books. The Fantastic Beasts movie was the best of the lot but the sequels stunk. It’s fine for stories to have an end.

          If there was to be another series, however, I would think having it be about the 4 founders of Hogwarts…

            The Beasts movies were pretty lame.

            I’m in agreement that it’s run it’s course. All it can do now is sink into lucrative mediocrity like Star Wars and Trek.

              Two points:

              1. I thought the first was the best Harry Potter movie. The sequels were the worst Wizarding World movies. It was a shame as there was a bit of an opportunity there.

              2. Star Wars has actually been revitalized a bit. Rogue One was excellent, and the Han Solo movie was much better than it’s given credit for. The Disney + series have been hit or miss, but overall have been pretty good on average. The Obi Wan series was very good.

                I haven’t seen any of the movies or read any of the books. I always assumed I would when my son got to be a certain age but he was never interested.

                But I’m guessing if she never received another royalty check ever, she’d somehow eke out a reasonable retirement on the billions she’s earned to date.

                  No interest from our son either.
