I seriously didn't like the films. Some of the casting was brilliant but they just missed so much out. I suppose they can't really do everything but the series was a bit meh for me. I'll probably see this at some point or other though.

Yeah, that's why I'm more interested in this because it's not an adaption so I'll watch it without knowing the story beforehand like with the books AND JK Rowling's wrote it herself so

I like the first three HP films for nostalgia purposes and they were pretty accurate adaptions imo but the rest were mostly garbage. Apart from some impressive stuff in the last 2. But 4-6 are AWFUL.

Oh has she?

Have you read any of her other books since she finished Harry Potter?

Yeah, her first screenplay.

I've read the Cuckoo's Calling and have the Silkworm sitting in my kindle app ready to be read.

I was kind of disappointed in it by the end but it's worth the read. I kind of predicted the outcome though.

can we read it together

I like reading a book at the same time as someone else... I always have so many things to say but no one to say them too

And I read the new stuff she's put up on Pottermore earlier. All information regarding America in the Potter universe useful for the new films. I wish she'd just wrote more books though instead.

Apparently it was that other guy's idea and she said once people see it they'll realise it could only be a play.

I took that to mean it'll be boring. I don't like plays much.

I imagine it'll be adapted into either a film or a miniseries within the next few years. I doubt Hollywood would be willing to let a new HP property go without an adaptation for long.

So did I but they've overhauled the site. You don't need your log in now.

It's basically just a wikipedia for Harry Potter now.

I just visit the "JK Rowling's New Writing" section for updates.

She is literally more useful than our Queen. Liz should pack up Buckingham palace and just house swap with JK

This won't meet the standards of the Harry Potter series, but I am excited nonetheless.
