+238 As grandparents, we're going to be saying "When I was your age, we stood in line to buy the next Harry Potter book. We didn't download on your technological knick-knacks! And, in the movies, we had Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson play the characters, not your fancy-shmancy holograms!", amirite?

Right. Because all of my memories concern the Harry Potter books and movies.

It sounds to me like this conversation would start when the kid was reading Harry Potter on there Kindle (which we could do too...) or watching it via hologram. Not that it's just a random thing to tell them at any given point during the day.

Oh. I was reading it like they were comparing reading physical books rather than downloading them (standing in line). So, according to the post, would the movies be remade using holograms rather than people?

Either that or they were somehow converted to holograms, I don't even know.

Then again, our grandparents assumed we'd have holograms and we don't, so...
