Not a single soul asked for a harry potter remake

Overview

This photograph captures a person in a full Spider-Man costume giving a presentation to an audience of uniformed students in an auditorium. The large projection screen behind the speaker displays bold text reading 'Not a single soul asked for a harry potter remake', expressing the widespread popular opinion that there is no public demand for a reboot or remake of the existing Harry Potter film franchise, which is widely seen as a greedy, unnecessary Hollywood cash grab.

Origin notes

This image was originally posted to 9Gag with the original title 'Just another desperate Hollywood cash grab'. It depicts a student's presentation at a school event, and has circulated online as a popular meme commenting on Hollywood's trend of remaking already successful popular media with no clear public demand for a new version.

This is a meme mocking fan concerns over bad casting for the upcoming HBO Harry Potter reboot series. The top text reads 'The type of Casting HBO is doing to snape in Harry Potter:', followed by an edited image of popular actor Ryan Gosling photoshopped into the Black Panther superhero suit. The joke implies that HBO would make a drastically miscast, off-type choice for the iconic role of Severus Snape (originated by Alan Rickman), drawing a parallel to miscasting a wrong actor for another famous role to highlight how poor the casting choice is, which matches the original poster's sentiment that even if the actor is liked, the casting is still terrible.

This meme parodies the iconic red pill/blue pill choice scene from *The Matrix*. The character Morpheus stands centered against a solid black background, wearing his signature dark coat and sunglasses. Text above him reads "choose a side:". He holds out a white gloved hand on each side: the left hand holds a red pill, with the text "have spider man money" above it and a small cutout of Spider-Man posed below the hand. The right hand holds a blue pill, with the text "have Batman's powers" above it and a small cutout of Batman posed below the hand. The joke relies on common superhero tropes: Batman is famously very wealthy but has no superpowers, while Spider-Man has superpowers but is portrayed as working-class/poor, so the choices intentionally flip the typical desired tradeoff between money and powers for humorous effect.

A two-panel meme using screenshots from the animated TV show 'SpongeBob SquarePants.' The top panel features a large green monster (likely the Hash-Slinging Slasher from SpongeBob lore) with the text 'Marvel bringing back RDJ and Chris Evans,' humorously depicting Marvel Studios' rumored/reported efforts to revive Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man) and Chris Evans (Captain America) in future films. The bottom panel shows SpongeBob SquarePants with a tired, unimpressed expression and the text 'Me who doesn't care anymore,' conveying audience apathy or fatigue towards such revivals. The meme讽刺 (satirizes) the perception of Marvel relying on nostalgia rather than new ideas, contrasting the hype of actor comebacks with a disinterested reaction.

A meme composed of two sections: the top section contains bold text reading 'JK Rowling resisting the urge to name a Japanese exchange student "Hiro Shima"', and the bottom section features a reaction image of a real person with a strained, struggling facial expression, looking upwards. The text plays on the name of the Japanese city "Hiroshima" by splitting it into "Hiro Shima", creating a pun that implies JK Rowling might be tempted to use such a name for a character, while the reaction image visually conveys the effort of resisting that urge.

This is a two-panel comparison meme using the popular Tuxedo Winnie the Pooh format. The top panel features a regular Winnie the Pooh with a bored, uninterested expression wearing his standard red shirt, paired with the text 'Sex ed' referring to standard school sexual education courses, which are commonly perceived as boring, basic, or underwhelming. The bottom panel features the same character edited to wear a formal black tuxedo and bowtie with a smug, amused smirk, paired with the text 'Sexual Edward'. The core joke is a pun on the common abbreviation 'Sex ed', which is shown to be short for both 'sexual education' and 'Sexual Edward', framing the formal 'Sexual Edward' as a more exciting, playful, edgier alternative to standard sex ed.

The third panel shows Albus Dumbledore responding with the joke that the creature used the free version of Spotify at full headphone volume when an advertisement played, mocking the common user complaint that Spotify free tier ads are drastically louder than the music content, implying the shock of the sudden loud ad hurt the user so badly they ended up in this near-dead state.

The image features a close-up photograph of a hand wearing a blue glove holding a white cylindrical object (resembling a plunger) pressed against a beige wall. At the top of the image, there is bold white text that reads: 'Draco Malfoy pronouncing the P in Potter:'. The meme relies on a pun, humorously implying that Draco Malfoy (a character from the Harry Potter series known for his haughty demeanor and disdain for Harry Potter) would emphasize the 'P' sound in 'Potter' in an exaggerated manner, with the visual of the plunger (associated with the verb 'plunge') reinforcing the phonetic joke of the hard 'P' pronunciation.

The image depicts a person dressed in a Spider-Man costume standing on a stage in front of a large projection screen. The screen displays the text: 'Your brain automatically translates wtf but not lol'. The setting appears to be a lecture hall with an audience visible in the foreground, suggesting a formal presentation scenario. The humor stems from the contrast between the unexpected use of a Spider-Man costume in a lecture context and the relatable observation about how the brain processes internet slang—interpreting 'wtf' as its full phrase but leaving 'lol' as an acronym.
