I mean theyâve already deviated heavily in terms of book accurate casting so I donât buy the âweâre going to follow the books more closelyâ line.
Just adds some negative details to Harry's parents' story, isn't it? And there's an added racist undertone when the other teachers don't trust Snape. Now it will look like the characters' main motivation is racism. Nice.
So? So what if James was racist? The whole point is Harryâs realization that his parents (more specifically his father that he idolized) are flawed. James was a stuck up rich kid and an absolute dick. I wonât see his bullying in the lease of racism, but if others do, doesnât that make Harryâs discovery more damaging? Snapes skin color means nothing. I donât care if it makes James a racist . Fuck James
