It would be nice if these franchises were done well in live-action. Only time will tell, of course. After all, while I did like the animated remake: Voltron: Legendary Defender, it wasn't all that faithful to the original. Hollywood doesn't seem to know what staying "true to the heart" of anything means. Having Henry Cavill on board does give some hope, though.

While the movie doesn't deserve a 1-Star review, it doesn't deserve above 2-Stars. Anyone voting it that high is technically a false review, because they obviously did not watch it. It is awful, with no real direction. The art style is terrible. Rachel's singing is good, but she's not a good actor.

I liked the series, at first, until they gave my favorite character the worst ending they could have come up with. Death would have been a preferable ending. I won't be specific to try to not spoil the series, but those who have seen it all should know.

Them saying that the Fantastic Beasts franchise failed because "it ignored what made Harry Potter great" only has a small amount of truth to it. No, the bigger reason was the backlash over WB's misandry with Johnny Depp and Amber Heard. They fired Johnny Depp over rumors, but kept Amber Heard even after there was evidence about her crimes.

As for Dudley Dursley, it can be seen as "fatphobic", but there was a reason for that, which can't be ignored. He was a spoiled child, overfed, allowed to do whatever he wanted, including not exercising. It is thing that happens in real families. So, it makes sense to include that a a warning to parents not to become like that. Hopefully, some of those growing up with the books or movies took that as a lesson for when they had kids.
