So How Long Until The Remake the Harry Potter Series?
Like, even a decade ago I would have thought the franchise would probably be off limits for a generation or two. But with some of the reboots coming out of Hollywood now, and even talk of rebooting Batman once Nolan is done with it, I can't help but wonder. The Harry Potter franchise has been a MAJOR cash cow for like a decade now, and I can't help but think we're going to see a reboot/remake of the series much sooner than we might have a while ago.

But maybe I'm wrong.

If you want to discuss this more broadly than Harry Potter, do you think the remake/reboot cycle is starting to get kinda silly? A lot of the examples that sprung to mind were super hero related, and that's sort of understandable given their nature in the first place, but still, there seems to be a lot more (and more obvious) rebooting/remaking these days.

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”
