Hp has a real bad reputation in the UK, mainly because we dont feel it's British anymore.

Alot of people dont like it because it's commercilisation and because the films are viewed as Children's films.

Oh and also because all the profits go back to WB in not much of it goes back into the British Film Industry which is a shame because it could really do with the money. I think that's a great shame and I think David Attenborough once said much the same. (He's a Welsh film maker/writer/actor)
