It would make libtards and critics orgasm and conservitards would spend weeks promoting the movie with the usual ineffective hate-filled talking points. It could be like black panther. Probably would generate an avalanche of cash due to the controversy alone. Plus non-racists get to see another version of Harry Potter. Thoughts?
There should be an alternative story set in africa. No identity politics and no agenda driven motivations should take place.
The african school is fucking hilarious. They cast spells by throwing gang signs and because they don't use wands they have plausible deniability if they "accidentally" kill someone. Also they can all turn into animals
shut up nazi, you belong in a cage.
Ok but keep Hermione and Fleur and the Slytherin girls for the post Yule Ball orgies

I'm so glad that Joanne becoming a persona non grata has cancelled the potential woke Harry Potter remake indefinitely.
That would never happen.
LOTR adaptation had a few blacks, yet it failed. Libshits pretend to care about black representation to get woke points but in reality they don't give a shit. That's why all-black films and shows have barely any white libshit viewers. The directors know this. That's why they mostly resort to raceswapping few characters in established franchises instead of making an all black remake/original. It just wouldn’t be profitable

someone post the webm of black youths shooting fireworks at each other in the street, its kino
It would bomb monumentally. The Cinemaphile/racist demographic wouldn't watch it for obvious reasons, and the black/woke would say that it's thinly veiled, condescending pandering to a racial group and wouldn't watch it either.
you'd have to explain why they'd all have consistent school attendance
Easy: magic forces them to be there.

They'll do it eventually. Punishment media is big in leftist hollywood right now. They want to punish imaginary bigots by destroying beloved franchises. They never consider what this actually does to the perception of black people now that they're associated with major franchise flops.
most liberals don't give a shit. this is done basically to create chatter and it works because the right wing crazies can't accept it.
However, I do think that we should re-evaluate this derivative approach to diversity. If I were a minority, I'd want something original to call my own, not a swarthier insertion into what is otherwise white media.
It doesn't matter if they were black or white or Chinese or Indian. Hell you could make the entire main cast washing machines and it would STILL be the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises. Seriously 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
"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.
I'd watch it. You'd have to set it in Africa and have all the magic be voodoo and shit. Instead of wands they'd use chicken bones and shit.
>ayo professor what’s the spell to open other peoples locked homes
>alohomora
>tight tight, and how do I rape kids and get away with it
>how do I rape kids and get away with it
Just rape the black ones. Their parents don't give a shit
>and how do I rape kids and get away with it
The transition spell
why did he turn russian after that spell?
>how come there's no quidditch matches no more
>every time we got to it the golden snitch ended up inna Diagon Alley pawn shop
>SHEEEEIT
Snitches have flesh memories and remember who caught them, so selling a stolen one would be awfully hard.
Snitches get stitches
yay if you set it into the African poudlard.
free my homie seriously black he aint done nothin wrong them aurors be racist
Nobody likes remakes let alone remakes where they race swap characters for no reason. Just make a unique story with unique characters and make them be black if “representation” matters. Why do the black actors always have to be in recycled bullshit that’s doomed to fail by virtue of it being a remake?
They should do all black remakes of every White IP.
Only if they use African themed magic instead of western traditions. Full of blood sacrifice and dark gods. Maybe some chicken resurrections.
Make it set in Africa with voodoo witchcraft school, doesn't make any sense to have all African casts in European castle setting
>magic niggas and their token white guy friend in inner city magic school
>long ago, a dark wizard referred to by everyone as "the Man" tried taking every niggas wands away and the streets were ablaze
Would watch
>Probably would generate an avalanche of cash due to the controversy alone.
you realize this is the marketing technique films have been relying on now for 5+ years? And it's not working, the movies and shows are flopping hard. not all publicity is good publicity, it turns out.
They should do it, it would be funny as shit.
I was right!
Black Potter ?
>would an all-black school where teenagers get guns work
you tell me fool
no
Already been done
>learns about Avada Kedavra
>immediately starts killing people
would be a bit kino
Come up with their own movies?
