I really don't get people that want this shit. Do you not realize that all of that crap is filler AKA stuff that's completely unimportant to the plot, WB shouldn't be getting any shit for gutting it from the screenplay. Quidditch World Cup, I at least kind of get it's importance because pivotal shit to the plot happens there and it's interesting in the sense of showing the audience a taste of the wizarding world beyond England (which Rowling completely wastes but I digress) but the entire St. Mungo's segment is a complete waste of time that adds basically nothing of importance to the plot and in a book where over 80% of it is already filler, that's a massive fucking sin.I think this has potential as some books could get legitimately better adaptations if they have a proper length given to them. Like they could actually show the Quidditch World Cup in Book 4 or Saint Mungos in Book 5. However it's likely they will still cheapen out on things and likely it'll suffer from modern day storytelling flaws that the OG films didn't have to deal with.
Order of the Phoenix is actually a fantastic adaption for that reason because it scraps all of the pointless side shit except for Hagrid's retarded brother (because Rowling insisted that he would be important to the plot of book 7, LMAO. You can guess how that turned out) but that's still enough to preserve the core of the story. The story is still ass, mind you, but as far as adaptions go, they did a surprisingly good job.
Also the reboot is going to be shit. The only new things they'd be including is filler stuff and that is better on page than on-screen.
Marauders era would make sense, not because it would lead to any great stories but because it would be major CW teen girl audience bait. Easy money by the truckloads.
