## Resource

The final Harry Potter movie! (Before we make Jason watch Fantastic Beasts). Guess what? He actually liked this one! We talked about a number of our personal pros and cons (mainly the ending), but found a lot of deep ideas to discuss. Ryan uses Trauma Theory to analyze the film, but we also ask: What is worth sacrificing for? We look at karma Our minds are important and determine our reality. The world could improve. We need people in our lives when devastation happens, and Trust is a powerful tool. Do you agree that this is a good wrap-up for a franchise? Let us know your thoughts! desertofthereelpod@gmail.com Next week is Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them ( 2016)
