As a Harry Potter fan who is always happy to stop by the Harry Potter Store in the Flatiron District of Manhattan, I have a bone to pick with the London-based fans. I will never understand the appeal of going to King’s Cross Station in the middle of rush hour traffic just to hear an …

I wonder what will happen when Harry Potter enters the public domain. This year, such iconic works as the book Valley of the Dolls and the composition An American in Paris have outlasted their copyright and, therefore, can be used without payment or prosecution.  I don’t know if many of us will be around when Harry Potter can be …

I’m shaking in anticipation for the new Harry Potter series coming out on Max next year. With the success of the Percy Jackson Disney+ series, I’m sure that Warner Brothers is going to do whatever they can to make it as great, if not better, than the original movies. Many people think that the path …

Last month, there were rumblings in the media that actor Paapa Essiedu would be cast as Severus Snape in the upcoming Harry Potter HBO series, and everyone seems to have a hot take about it. He’s best known for his role I May Destroy You, which was also created by HBO. The reason the rumors …

Merry Christmas, Potterheads! It’s days like today that make me think about how Dudley Dursley is doing as an adult. Of course, I know Dudley Dursley isn’t a real person, but there are thousands of kids just like him all over the world who are all grown up now. Kids who cried if they got …

Fred and George are underrated for their magical skills. In the books and movies, they’re portrayed as class clowns who don’t care much about school, yet they’re the only young wizards who are innovative with their magic. I don’t think Harry, Ron, or Hermione ever discovered a brand-new way to do magic as Fred and …

Say what you will about the Harry Potter series, but they’ve got no shortage of villains. I know it’s not a particularly deep revelation that a children’s series about the battle between good and evil has a lot of baddies, but I think Harry Potter villains stand out! In other books and movies where there’s …

Harry Potter is one of those franchises that will never be forgotten. It doesn’t matter if you decide not to read the books to your children or boycott the new Harry Potter series on Max. No amount of backlash now will ever cause the series to go quietly into the night. I think Harry Potter …

I don’t know about y’all, but I love A Very Potter Musical. I’m not going as far as to say that it’s superior to the official Harry Potter Broadway show Harry Potter and The Cursed Child, but it’s incredibly close. I love that the original musical can squeeze in the plots of the last four …

I never got the Draco hype. I am so sorry for the girlies who spent their childhoods, teens, and even adulthood pining after that bleach-blonde Death Eater-curious Slytherin; I don’t get it. I understand the appeal of a «bad boy,» but I don’t think Draco fits the bill. For most of the books, he is …
