Updated Pottermore

[connielane]

I ... don't really like the new version of Pottermore? The old version was purely rooted in the books, but this new version has a LOT of movie stuff, which ... I like the movies for what they are, but they are not the books. And I grow ever more crotchedy about the increasing pervasiveness of "movie canon" into what is generally accepted as part

I had the same thought on that 11 Times thing. That felt out of place and odd, and wasn't even that well written. It's been so long since I was on the old Pottermore that it's hard for me to do a fair comparison. But I agree. It seems like they took away A LOT and for no really good reason. I regret not spending more time on the old site now that it's gone...

You've articulated my feelings so much more clearly than I could. When it switched over I was horrified.

it really looks so awful

like it doesn't feel like Harry Potter at all. it looks like--- hypable or like wikipedia
and all the talk about making it more accessible and easier to navigate are a bunch of lies, because half of the text stuff is missing, and the one that's still there you have to go like wild chase and turn it upside down to find stuff

so disappointed and sad.
