Netflix has a reasonable track record with these things, maybe I’ll even watch it if they show hog.

The era of cheap streaming is over, now begins the era of free streaming
I think it’s just that people associate them with rich neighborhoods but that’s still kinda dumb and immature, like how about worry about something that’s actually bad instead of vaguely associated with some of the beneficiaries of a bad thing.
Why doesn’t he set an example by talking about material issues instead of contributing to a discussion he thinks is all a waste of time
Reading some of these comments you’d think they build little free libraries by dismantling actual libraries, I think some of you could stand to take it down a notch
Or just engage in moderation like every other medium, it’s weird to me that playing videogames is automatically supposed to be a “hobby” but the same doesn’t apply to watching movies or reading books or whatever.
I don’t think this is even true for straight people, straight women basically dress for other women and straight men are instantly turned gay whenever they make a clothing related decision
I haven’t heard of this what did she do lol
I think if you put aside how awful they are, the Putin/Hitler comparisons are kind of hilarious in the way they specifically cherry-pick some bad thing that Putin did but not Hitler.
“That asshole in the pickup truck is worse than Hitler because at least Hitler never cut me off in traffic”
Why should it have ended after two? It didn’t even get worse after two seasons, at least in most people’s opinion
Netflix didn’t milk it for 6 seasons, they cut it short after 6 seasons because the crew unionized
Not here, from fans of the podcast Chapo Trap House, which has a similar name to this website despite there being no relationship between the two to my knowledge

Yeah I kinda put my point wrong in that comment, I put an edit at the end since then.
Sure, but so is most media. The Lion King is pro absolutist monarchy, and it’s still a good movie.
Dumbledore actually lied again. Harry and Voldemort basically get stuck in limbo, where he has some kind of magical conversation with Dumbledore (I’m not sure this is ever explained). Voldemort’s Killing Curse once again failed to kill Harry, and instead destroyed the portion of Voldemort’s soul latched onto Harry (again I don’t think a Killing Curse was originally able to destroy a Horcrux and this is also never really explained). Basically, just as Voldemort was unable to die while Harry lived, so too Harry cannot die while Voldemort lived. But now the last ties between them have been destroyed.
In order to destroy a horcrux, it has to be obliterated in such a way that it could never be brought back. If the horcrux is a living thing, you can just kill it by any method because magic can’t bring the dead back to life. So if Voldemort had killed Harry, he would have destroyed the unintentional horcrux he created.
I think technically speaking he did kill Harry, but the remnant of Lily’s protection saved him from dying all the way, and that’s what caused him to meet Dumbledore in limbo or wherever.
I think it’s fair to say that this plot point was kind of contrived and not really set up in universe, and although the specific magic that allowed it wasn’t set up, it was a recurring plot point throughout the entire series that Harry never asked to be the chosen one and didn’t like it, so the moment with Dumbledore represented him being “reborn” as a hero by choice rather than by random chance.
Honestly I don’t get why every leftist wants me to hate the Harry Potter books. JK Rowling may be a piece of shit, but that has literally nothing to do with the content of the books. It doesn’t matter if you’re the most despicable Nazi ever to Hitler, if you write a book that captures the imagination of millions of kids and doesn’t contain your ideology in it, you’ve written a good book. Hating everything associated with someone doesn’t mean you hate them more.
edit: ok, I don’t mean the book has to “not contain your ideology,” that’s impossible. What I mean is it has to not serve as a vehicle for your ideology, and it has to not contain so many problematic themes as to set it apart from other media in the same cultural context, which I believe applies to the HP series. I acknowledge the serious flaws in the books, but I think they should be looked at completely ignoring Rowling’s stated political views, which people clearly are not doing.
I’d wager it would be roughly cubic in shape
