I
wonder if the entire success of this franchise is down to simple wish
fulfilment? Harry Potter is an eleven year old child when he finds
out that not only is he famous for having saved the world but he's
also as rich as fuck. You find me an eleven year old child and I'll
show you a superficial little bastard that'd give his right nut for
all of that. Send me to a mixed-gender boarding school and throw an
invisibility cloak into the mix and fuck it- I'm sold. So Harry finds
out that he's a wizard and on his way to magic school, which is lucky
because his complete cluelessness makes spoon feeding the audience
exposition pretty fucking easy. It's just a shame that they then go
on to repeat everything about a million times. So Harry'll say, “You
told me they died in a car crash” and just to emphasis this
important point, Hagrid will then repeat “A Car Crash!!”. “You're
a Wizard Harry”, says Hagrid. “I'm a Wizard” Harry repeats to
make sure that all the thick people in the audience got the point.
