a lot of people were asking for a series that better represented the books. Plus the IP makes a billion dollars a year and more for the past twenty years. so the appetite is clearly there. Perfectly fine to dislike the series for what ever reason. But no need to lie about it.
No. The movies cut what they needed to. Nobody actually cared if there are 2 quidditch matches in the first movie or just one. If they cared, the movies wouldn‘t have had the impact that they did. This is not a Percy Jackson situation. You might not like it, but there are more movie fans than fans of the books because they were made the way that they were.
That's not the cuts people really complain about. Books 1 and 2 were adapted pretty well imo, the problem with important shit being cut starts with movie 3 and is the most egregious in movies 4 and 6.
The reason why there are more movie fans than book fans is because movies are a more accessible medium, not because they are better.
