ITT: we match vidya characters to hogwarts houses
Of course someone as infantilized as a gamer would want to draw comparison to the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises. Each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.
Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>a-at least the books were good though r-right
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."
I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

is this pasta?

how new are you?

You’re just mad you’ll never be a professional writer
Ooh ooh, do these guys.
please guys, dont let the first post ruin a cool thread
I dont understand your thought process behind the mon groups you chose
there is nothing to say here, it's all shallow. Gryffindor is for good guys, slytherin for bad guys, hufflepuff for boring neutral fags, and ravenclaw for edgy loners.

Pokemon generations in terms of fanbase.
>thread about video game characters' personalities
>IMMEDIATELY has to talk shit about a popular franchise
gatsby was a terrible book btw, honestly the most boring one i've read.
Ravenclaw, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor
Okay, got it myself.
>Prompto is in Slytherin because his bloodline is evil
>Ignis is in Ravenclaw because he’s a smug bastard who’s probably better than everyone
>Gladio is in Hufflepuff because he seems like the dumb type
>Noctis is in Gryffndor because everyone kisses his ass and he’s got a Jesus complex
I think that’s accurate
Serious question,:why repeating something dozens of times like "stretching her legs" is so bad?, unless this affects the plot or the narrative, I don't see the deal.
is this a new age of quinn-posting
Great Gatsby fucking sucks
>Harry Potter
this.
might as well be an alignment thread
bumping, gonna do this for GS
