Well, a couple of things. First, the comparison to Twilight is silly and the HP fen who are all, they can't be more popular than us, I mean, things fade.

Second, a lot of the people who are more level-headed about the strengths and weaknesses of the series aren't deeply in the fandom anymore, or anyway aren't the people engaged in stuff like HP vs Twilight. They might still be writing fic, might still be discussing the books, but they aren't the ones rushing to their defense. And the people who really didn't much like the final books? They aren't in the fandom at all, because of the wave of "if you don't like it, there's the door" that swept the fandom after DH.

But that happens in a lot of fandoms. The canon ends, and the people who really loved the ending stay, and the people who didn't eventually drift away, and the new people who arrive are coming into a closed canon and know the score.

+1

Agreed on so many levels. Thank you for making this comment, couldn't have put it better myself.
