‘Fantastic Beasts’ Sequel announced. Written by Rowling, dropping November 16, 2018
Fantastic Beasts hasn’t dropped yet. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t getting itself a sequel. I mean, why wouldn’t it be getting a sequel? Fucking Potter fans are like us Star Wars fans, they’ll snag anything related to the franchise. License to print money, et cetera. I’d be judgmental about it, if I didn’t relate to it so much.
‘Harry Potter and the Cursed Child’ play is the “official” eighth story in series
This…this is going to interest someone around here, right? I’m posting this story. For you. For you.
J.K. Rowling announces play, ‘Harry Potter and the Cursed Child’; opening in 2016
J.K. Rowling can’t seem to quit Harry Potter, and I can’t seem to blame her. It’s a goddamn cash cow. And, you know, it’s beloved by millions who will happily slurp on the teat of New Content from their beloved universe. Which, as a Star Wars sloven, I completely get.
HBO announces J.K. Rowling’s ‘The Casual Vacancy’ adaptation dropping April 29
Were you sweating the BBC/HBO MEGAZORD MINI-SERIES adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s The Casual Vacancy? Truthfully – I wasn’t. But I reckon there’s enough J.K. fans around here to justify blabbering about it.
J.K. Rowling’s first “adult novel” is getting HBO MINISERIES.
J.K. Rowling news up in the heezy! The house! The hacienda! The author’s first “adult novel” (scare quotes to call attention to the somewhat nebulous term) is getting a miniseries courtesy of HBO. Not having read the book, I am still at least intrigued given the author and network.
Harry Potter spin-off ‘FANTASTIC BEASTS’ will be a movie trilogy
More news on that Harry Potter spin-off, Fantastic Beasts. Apparently it ain’t just going to be one movie. ‘Cause who the fuck does one movie anymore?! Losers. That’s who. It’s all about the trilogy. Truthfully, the odd, pseudo-meta premise of the book (inside a book? I think?) has me intrigued. So while I’m not particularly sure what the fuck it is all about, I’m willing to preemptively dig on it.
J.K. Rowling: Hermione should have gotten with Harry. Oh word?
If you’re one of those people who was all “Hermione+Ron OTP for lyfe bruh!“, J.K. Rowling is shitting on your Potter existence. Years after the Potter Saga ended in a shit-confetti explosion of fan service in that god forsaken epilogue, Rowling is coming out and saying she got the Hermione relationship wrong.
J.K. ROWLING producing ‘HARRY POTTER’ PREQUEL PLAY.
The Boy Who Lived Universe! continues to swell, and why should it? Potter fans want more, god dammit!, more! I am no one to begrudge them this desire. With every new Marvel or Star Wars announcement, my sad little gathering of atoms in my groin flare momentarily to life. Let us have our favorite universes into perpetuity.
J.K. ROWLING Announces NEW BOOK, ‘The Casual Vacancy’, OMFGosh.
Ohhhhhhhhh Potter fans! Slap on a diaper and prepare yourself for this news blast upside your wands. (Doesn’t make sense, I know.) J.K. Rowling has officially announced her next novel.
J.K. Rowling Wanted To Kill Ron Weasley. Should Have Killed The Final Book Amirite?
I’m a fan of Harry Potter, but as the years have passed I’ve found the movies to be less and less magical and the final novel adequate at best. You know what could have made it more enjoyable for me? A little treat tossed towards my blood lust.
