I'm so happy i'm not the only one liking the idea of the rowling sponsored play!!!
It's been all over the fandom since yesterday and the general consensus is "Harry story pre-hogwarts? YAWN, BORIIIING" or "I like the A Very Potter Musical better" *headdesk*
both of them make me soooo mad. this is brand new, there no production stuff yet and everyone is just hating it on without waiting to see how it goes first.
(and the "I like the very potter musical better" is making me so mad because that was a PARODY, a parody from fans that love the material, and with somewhat catchy songs and occasionally heartfelt moments but still A PARODY! from a group of college students who did it for fun! this would have rowling approval and be done by award winning producers!)
even someone from the hp cast is hating on it! (it's a reallly really minor actor- the guy who played 1st year sirius in snape's memory flashback but Still! you worked in the Movies! from rowling's book! because it's Her work! why are you hating on this?! )
:(
on the other hand everyone is loving the hp illustrations, me included! and i'm SO excited to get the illustrated books when they come out (I admit I would like if the illustrations be done by rowling herself- who can draw really well too: http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/ciu/ed/a4/cabed250fca0c4c3a1b14010.L.jpg
but Jim Kay's illustrations are still pretty awesome- so not complaining.
(can't wait to see how he draw Hermione, and McGonagall and Dumbledore, and Neville!! and... Sirius! & Lupin!! :D)
the castle kind of freaks me out a little because giant fish monsters, what?
Yay Potter! (I'm also going to go to Scotland & Wales next summer and I'm SO excited!! :D
