Title: So Harry Potter, Hermione, and Ron...
Post by: B E C K on Feb 15, 2014, 10:34:12 PM
...because that shit's been making the news rounds lately.  Since Rowling said she hooked up Hermione and Ron for personal reasons or some bullshit like that.  Really, I think all of them should've just stayed friends without the hackneyed romance bullshit.  The epilogue will forever be the worst part of those damn books.  But at least it's not Twilight.

I pretty much forgot everything that happened in those books

Never read the books, never saw the movies, and am perfectly happy with it.

Meh, nothing of value is lost really.  For being the wealthiest author in the world, you would think her books would be more memorable.  Books.  Not characters or movies.  To me, the pinnacle was Goblet of Fire.  Then it was a downward freefall.  I like to pretend the shit after Book 4 never happened.

Rowling is a sell out bitch. Didnt she swear she was never going to write another HP book? Now she says she will

And she wrote some more Harry Potter now or something where they're old and shit.  Wow, I only care enough to roll my eyes at it.  Apparently, Merla read an excerpt and found the writing laughable.  I mean, I'M the bitchy family cynic so if Merla's scoffing at it, that's not a good sign.

She said she won't write another book about Harry Potter. She's writing a book that has characters that were in the Harry Potter story, though. Maybe even Harry.

I was not impressed with the short story on Pottormore, either. It was basically fan-service.

I'd like to see other writers take on her universe.  I don't have any faith in her writing anymore at this point.
