I don't think you'll be seeing much of the outside world in the game

Even in the Modern Harry potter the Hogwarts Express is a steam train

Even if you ignore she wrote it before the internet and smartphones were a thing, the technology they use is still all from the 1800s

They don't even have electricity

Would Ron steal his mum's coach wagon to fly to Hogwarts like in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Speaking of Man of Steel, Michael Shannon stars in The Iceman, which is an awesome movie about a mafia hitman.

He doesn't scream "We will find him" either

Guy wasn't invited to some Star Wars premier, proceeds to argue on air with his producer about how he doesn't want to cover Star Wars because he wasn't invited to the premier.

What if Potter universe was in the 1950's / 1960's

What if Potter's Hogwarts journey was all an acid trip?

"There is one major exception to the general magical aversion to Muggle technology, and that is the car (and, to a lesser extent, motorbikes and trains).[...] It is pointless to deny that wizardkind looked with great envy upon the speedy and comfortable automobiles that began filling the roads in the twentieth century, and eventually even the Ministry of Magic bought a fleet of cars, modifying them with various useful charms and enjoying them very much indeed. Many wizards love cars with a child-like passion, and there have been cases of pure-bloods who claim never to touch a Muggle artefact, and yet are discovered to have a flying Rolls Royce in their garage."

@LarryFisherman eventually i'm going to buy the stuff you recommended. As you can tell I am trying to figure out how to set up the wire as I've not done it before. Apparenly you need wire cutters and trimmers.

That is why I asked you if you made your own wire or used pre made banana plug wire

 

[John Price]

I'm sure I could hire an A/V technician to set it up but it'd be like 200 dollars

Or I could just try to do it myself for less lol

 

[John Price]

whoa harry potter takes place in 1993-1994

Live stream the setup, especially if you're running wires behind the drywall

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

You just need this

 

[John Price]

Lirl it would be chaos

 

[John Price]

if there was wiring behind the drywall f*** it i'd just call someone

it would be just wires on the floor right now, no drywall breaking needed atm

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Yeah, don't pay someone $200 to run wires on the floor

That's like some products on Amazon offering a service to come and set up your device.

$100 to come set up your Keurig, lirl

This seems like a horrendous ret-conning

There's nothing ever mentioned in the main book series about anyone other than Ron's dad having a flying car and that's just because he's a nutjob obsessed with muggle things

A flashing yellow light means you should drive with caution when approaching and moving through the intersection.

Ahh, so don't drive with caution at any other time, got it
