I agree as for a few years I haven’t been able to read or watch Harry Potter in the same way as I kept thinking about her actions but like you said it’s important to seperate art from artist. I don’t necessarily hate her as she is human and maybe eventually she’ll grow but if not I can focus on the things I do like about her. Like Rupert Grint said recently she’s like an auntie to him but it doesn’t mean he has to agree with her on everything. That’s pretty much how I see her. I very much oppose her problematic views but she’s also done things I can appreciate. I’m also slowly finding I still enjoy Harry Potter but I also can’t defend certain aspects of it. So it’s both give and take when it comes to her and Harry Potter. There’s more good in the series overall than there is bad I find. It should be interesting to see how my viewing of Philosopher’s Stone goes when I watch it again as I bought it today.

That sounds amazing! Avatar: The Last Airbender has been on my to watch list for a long time now as it reminds me of my own story I’m writing on the surface and the way you describe it but you’re pushing it to the top of my to watch list. I may have to give it a go after I complete Pokemon XY and Mad About You.

That’s some of why I appreciate George’s take on the Prequels but probably more so in the context we’re discussing the Sequels he had in mind. His ideas continued to expand the lore and what a Star Wars film could be. I don’t find that to be the case in the Sequels we ended up with as they feel like they’re doing the same exact things we’ve seen before but they can be a moderately fun time on their own. I find they’re modern retro stories for a lack of better wording. However I expect more from these stories. George designed each of his six films to be different but to play off of one another in a way where they could be their own thing individually but the bigger picture story became clearer when watched as a collective whole as I-VI.
