    He’s not playing Dumbledore, he’s playing Michael Gambon’s version of Dumbledore. .

      I fully intend on not watching this show on a monetized service that would give her money

        Before the S hit the F, we bought the entire movie set and the entire book set for our kids. We’d regularly read them to them before bed, and now it makes me throw up in my mouth. As I always say, she can fuck off into the sun. There is absolutely no financial benefit for her to be a tankie, but I guess once you’re rich you can just go full mask off.

          I’m only acquainted with her being a TERF. Is she a tankie, as well? That seems like an unlikely ideology for a billionaire to espouse.

            Not gonna lie, I don’t know the difference between terfs and tankies. I’m old. I just know both are bad. Protect trans people.

              TERF is trans exclusionary radical feminist.

              Tankies are “leftists” who align themselves with “communist states” like Russia and China.

    Oh Harry, Harry, Harry… Did you, lovable little magical crotch goblin, place your silly little name in my shiny flambee chamber pot?

      I blew past this comment not even getting the reference at first, even though I watch Harry and the Hendersons with my daughter all the time. I actually got about five or six posts down my feed before it dawned on me and I had to come back to let you know.

        Thanks for pointing it out. I would have blown past it too. Harry and the Hendersons was a show I watched on repeat as a kid. How’s it hold up today? I might give it a shot with my kid now.

          It’s the sneaky ones that get ya’!

          IMO it still holds up, kinda the same way that “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” and “Honey, I Blew Up The Kid” do — but that may be more due to the feelings of nostalgia that they all still up for me.

    When I see him with a beard, I suppose it’s not the worst choice. Still, this series seems as though it will be a little unusual and not something anyone had asked for.

      I’d be surprised if he used anything like his natural accent - American voices seem to be against the rules for fantasy shows (though there’s probably exceptions I’m not thinking of).
