The hill I die on all the time is that the Harry Potter movies are so significantly better than the books in large part because they took out the "slaves love slavery" plotline.

I hate the term "Mary Sue," though. It's a bit sexist. I prefer to call them "Wesley Crushers."

Man, Wesley Crushers is such a better name for it. Thank you.

I personally always really liked the games. Like the first three on PC (the PS2 versions seem good as well, I just had the PC versions), and those had the huge advantage of being scored by Jeremy Soule.

And I gotta say, the environment artists on Hogwarts Legacy really knocked it out of the park. I've watched some streams and videos and the castle and Hogsmeade look really cool.
