"unfair to act like people's entire lives revolve around this one piece of media"

Er the secret says, quote, "defined our lives." I don't think this is talking about people who happened to like a HP movie.

Da but "defining a life" doesnt have to mean your life still revolves around HP all day every day. It just means the books have a special place in your heart because they defined a certain phase in your life because that's what they did -it wasn't just about the books, it was about the community, the collective wait for a new book in the series and how it defined the mental playgrounds for a lot of kids - this is an experience that's not something you can just turn off on a whim. And I say this as someone who read the first few books when there wasn't as much of a hype yet and dumped the series halfway through because I started to dislike it.

I'm the OP of the post that anon is replying to and thank you, this is exactly what I meant. I'm so tired of how bad faith anons are here, I thought DW would be better than Twitter/Tumblr since it skews older.

(I also dislike HP a lot too, which is why I chimed in with my equivalent formative media.)

Yeah, like, when I did still like it, several things came together - in the beginning, my best friend and I got super into it because we, like many others, were the same age as the protagonists and got older alongside them. We play acted we were in Hogwarts for YEARS during a very formative time. And even after I ditched the books, I still look back very fondly on that time and yes, would say they defined part of who I am now, in some way.

I don't continue to support a lot of media or musicians who turned out to be bad people, but I still sometimes reminisce about it for "old times sake" (ex. listening to or reading old things I bought back before the creators showed their true colors) or even draw inspiration from them in my original works. I don't understand how this is so hard for people to grasp.
