In the play (which is really good) Hermione is black. Not trying to be woke but I've heard thats what she was originally written as but not explicitly stated
Yeah I know when I write a black chick in fiction I describe her as having bushy brown hair, getting suntanned in the summer, blushing, refer to them as looking like a panda after getting black eye, and having a father.

Yeah her being black the only thing they hold on to is the hair description could be maybe, kinda. Black person hair… forget everything else

It's JK Rowling who also retconned Dumbledore being a cum guzzler, just saying what I read

Its important to remember JK Rowling is absolutely unhinged leftist who is sane on exactly one issue, and it isn't race or gayness.

I could see Hermione being black, but with all the mudblood undertones Rowling probably chickened out. Why was she called a mudblood anyway which is usually an African slur. Being muggle born shouldn't she have just been a mugblood?

Besides all that Hermione is probably the author self insert character.

Dumbledore being gay isn't really a retcon though, it was just filling in a gap she left blank. It fits in so smoothly that she probably did always intend Dumbledore to be gay but lacked sufficient conviction in her beliefs to risk her book sales so left it out of the final cut.

you DO know that it is possible for two men to be friends without fucking each other in the ass, right?

The fact that Dumbledore was willing to let WW2 drag on for years due to his reluctance to confront Grindlewald suggests that there was more between them than the death of Ariana. Of course in the real world I wouldn't assume they were faggots but in a magical world written by a deranged misandrist? Gay.

God, it's almost like someone really based made that casting decision just for the memes.

Putting him in Rick Owen's was definitely a meme decision by the casting director. It's so distracting and stupid.

She is white but that sentence is clearly describing fear/anxiety, not skin color.

Yeah, true - however (AKSHUALY.meme) with black characters they would use other ways of saying this, such as ashen - etc. because blacks do not blush, nor pale in the same % of color change because...of...their black skin... also the color change of fear is usually due to the draining away of blood, again, that does not / very much less affects blacks--- so while this is not "see she IS WHITE luluzlzulzuz" it is, also, yes she is white.

Yes... I know...

it will be shit but there will be less shit i guess

also apparently some 30 minute special dropped on HBO a few days ago and it skyrocketed to the number one watched thing across HBO, this show is gonna be massively huge and it'll be fascinating to see how normies react to black snape. i don't think most people really will give a shit about hermione but snape could potentially be hilarious

also saw unconfirmed reports that the show is costing $75-100m an episode, which is nuts. CGI? British pedophile coverup fees? Guess its not insane compared to Stranger Things ($60m) or Andor ($30m) but then again Acolyte was also $28m/episode lol

Upfront costs to build sets, costumes, props, and CGI that will be reused for a decade would be a healthy chunk of the budget. Will be interesting to see how the amount varies season to season.

‘Watching that HBO special, you can really see they are spending a lot on this. They show off the animatronics they use for all the animals in it and they look better then anything I have ever seen.

Can't forget Snape's designer wardrobe.
