Horatio's first film places the conflict in the cooperation between Gringotts and the Bank of England, with the Bank of England trying every means to force Gringotts to concede benefits.
The interest here is in magical artifacts; the English government wants to acquire Gringotts' magical items.
Apart from the Harry Potter series, other stories that revolve around Harry Potter do not like to set the main setting at Hogwarts.
Hogwarts only appears briefly in the movies.
The new series simply uses the Harry Potter universe, further reducing its adult fairy tale elements.
If the Harry Potter series can be said to have successfully combined fairy tales with adult content.
Rowling made very universal and realistic adult-oriented statements in her later works, but the element of love runs through the whole story and does not lose its fairy-tale nature because of the adult-oriented statements.
In the Fantastic Beasts series, political elements were further emphasized, and the love between Dumbledore and Grindelwald seemed pale, weak, and superficial, making the fairy tale aspect very weak.
As for the Horatio series, it's hard to tell that it's a film with a fairy tale background anymore; all the elements and references in the film are very adult-oriented.
It is full of metaphors for the real world.
The first film depicted the Prime Minister's downfall, and George Weasley's comments upon hearing the news were a direct satire of the real world:
"Oh? The Muggle Prime Minister resigned? He should go and learn some acting from Lockhart; his terrible acting is so obvious that even I can see right through him."
However, he was better than Fudge in that he knew he had to resign.
When this scene appears in the movie, anyone who follows English politics will smile knowingly.
Even if Boris Johnson were still in office, Warner Bros. wouldn't be afraid of offending him.
In the Western world, governments are subject to more constraints than capital.
The movie is quite exciting, at least more exciting than The Mystery of Dumbledore.
Because it allows you to discover many elements related to the real world, the sense of immersion is very strong.
But after watching it, Li Miaomiao had a lot to say: "How did you feel?"
Zheng Li replied, "It's alright. I think it's better than Merlin and Dumbledore's Mystery that I watched before."
Li Miaomiao nodded and said, "Because the pace is tighter, and there are no inexplicable romantic scenes."
This is progress, and it also showcases a magical world that is completely different from what has been seen before.
The Muggle world and the magical world blend together very well.
But I always felt it wasn't like the Harry Potter series, even though the director tried to use various elements to remind us that this is the Harry Potter world.
From George Weasley and the Weasley Joke Shop, to Harry Potter nearing retirement as the Auror's Office Chief, and to the goblins in Gringotts, these elements all remind me that this is the world of Harry Potter.
But at its core, it's as if it's telling me that the fairy tale is over, you're all adults now, and it's time to face the adult world.
I was still quite moved after watching it.
Zheng Li: "I roughly understand what you mean. It's just a movie. The real world is far more cruel than the movie."
Li Miaomiao explained, "I think it still suits my taste. I don't think the point of feeling emotional is because it's cruel."
Instead, they used Batman as an analogy. Previous Batman series were all about superheroes who could do whatever they wanted in Gotham City.
It wasn't until Nolan's Batman trilogy that audiences worldwide rediscovered Batman, realizing that he was just an ordinary person who could get hurt, fall down, and lose confidence.
I felt a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex feeling of mixed emotions, including mixed feelings) because of the change in style
Although it is filled with Harry Potter elements, the description of the economic crisis and the explanation of the reasons behind Muggles' hatred of wizards made me realize that this is no longer a fairy tale.
It's no longer just pure-blood wizards who are hostile to Muggles in the Harry Potter series; Muggles can also be hostile to wizards.
The world is not one-dimensional, but complex and diverse, and the new Harry Potter series is closer to the real world.
"When the last Harry Potter movie was released, I was just starting junior high school. When I went to see it with my friends, I simply thought it was good."
Later, after leaving school, we came to Suzhou to start a business. When we were bored at night, we rewatched the Harry Potter movie series.
The entire film series begins at Platform Nine and Three-Quarters and also ends at Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.
Harry Potter's final glance back as he left the platform made me realize that my student days had also come to an end.
The new series begins with the workers at Weasley's shop, and combined with the content, the Harry Potter series will not always be a fairy tale.
It will also grow over time.
Over the years in her career, Li Miaomiao has become adept at controlling her emotions, except when she is with Zheng Li, when she lets her emotions show.
When discussing this change, Zheng Li could clearly sense the other person's melancholy and helplessness.
Zheng thought about it and realized he could understand the melancholy of ordinary people.
Even mages cannot defy time, let alone mortals.
The brevity of human life leads them to need various rituals to commemorate the passing of their lives.
Enrolling in school, graduating, working, getting married, having children, and so on.
Zheng Li: "Actually, if you want, you can go back and get a doctorate to experience student life again."
Li Miaomiao immediately refused, saying, "Then forget it, I don't have that plan for the time being."
Getting an MBA is already annoying enough for me, let alone getting a PhD.
Moreover, going to school now is different from going to school before.
