If you’ve ever seen the cinematic disasters known as the “Harry Potter” films, you’ll have heard of “Wizards’ Chess.”
For those of you who haven’t heard of the catastrophic Harry Potter movies, allow me to explain the game of Wizards’ Chess in further detail.
Wizards’ Chess is like real Chess, but with 2 key differences. 1) You move the game pieces using telepathy, and 2) the pieces actually murder each other on the board, meaning most of the set is destroyed after every single game.
I have a few problems with this.
Do you have any idea how expensive this game must cost? I mean, the pieces look well-crafted, so it can’t be even CLOSE to cheap. Additionally, you’re destroying the game every time you play it. Pretty wasteful, no?
I wish Harry, as well as each of the other dozens of poorly constructed characters, would play something cheaper and more sustainable instead.
Unless Rowling were to seamlessly explain (UNLIKELY, considering her poorly crafted writing style!) that homelessness is a “thing of the past” in this universe that she has created and (so very bunglingly) developed, her characters shouldn’t be so ignorant to the poverty around them.
Until next time,
