What the hell was that?! Siriusly!

I know. I can’t possibly consider it canon.

Like, what were they thinking!?
The characters felt bland, and everyone was OoC except possibly Draco.

sAAmmee so we were ranting about this in a separate convo and I hate it! It's like Rowling didn't even try with it, and her name is clearly stapled onto it. It makes me mad she didn't intervene with the characters.

And like, Delphi!?! She was WEIRD

yeS! and Albus?? Ginny wouldn't raise a child like that!

ANd Harry for gosh sake! He would NEVER say anything like I wish you weren't my son.

Geez so bad. all around. And CEDRIC coming back to life??? WHAT???

AND BEING A MCFRICKIN DEATH EATER BECAUSE OF THE WHOLE THING ALBUS AND SCORPIUS PULLED?!!
DA HECK

whahhhahaaaTT

like

whyYYY

I WAS JUST LIKE GAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH MY EYES

oh LAVY our RP! and eWWWW i hated it so much. I'm glad it's not a movie.

I don’t think JK actually wrote it herself. She just okayed it.

OHMYGOSH YES. HOW DID IT GET PUBLISHED?!?!

I wish JK wrote/planned it. It'd be so much better.

Makes me a bit more confident about my writing in a strange way.
If that thing can manage to make it to the the light of day (And it really shouldn't've), there's a chance for my stories!

xD that's a way to look at it.

The thing is, if you’re famous, your name on stuff (even if the stuff sucks) will sell the stuff.

True.

I don't think JKR technically write that trashy screenplay

Jk Rowling didn’t write any of it. She approved it and made it “canon” but really they stapled her name so people will buy it

I didn’t even finish it. I read up tot he part were they hoped onto the train and shut the book forever. Why would they do that to the sweet candy cart lady??

I stopped trying to take that book seriously when the Trolley Witch started attacking them, like in what world is that even remotely close to how she is portrayed in every other book.

Same like seriously I couldn’t read anymore.

I'm usually not the kind of person to disregard something as canon, but like………THE CURSED CHILD AND IT'S HORRIBLE PORTRAYALS OF THE CHARACTERS CAN BE CANONIZED OVER MY DEAD BODY!
