to show people that the one of the main characters is called Harry Potter which, unless you have been living on the "Lost" island, you will know later became the name for a famous boy wizard.
your the dumbass, i am talking the harry potter names as in tthis character and the more famous harry potter from the books, the names that are someones intellectual property and copyrighted to them, im not talking about the names of indivuduals.
you know what, grow the fuck up, have you even seen the film,it is actually quite entetrtaining, as for whether its a low budget horror movie vs a publishing phenomenon makes no difference, the point is that whoever wrote troll in the 80's used the name harry potter first.
in actual fact if Rowling sued they wouldnt be laughed out of court but they would be sided with as the judge would note that their work existed long before harry potter, i doubt rowling stole the name anyway (never mind the fact that harry in troll is a boy wizard but doesnt know it) and i know she wouldnt be so silly as to take it to court as she knows she would lose.
and for your information i own all the harry potter books which have gotten progressively better unlike the films which have gotten progessively worse. stick that in your pipe and smoke it, oh and i almost forgot,
And also, by your logic, if someone wrote and released a book with my name on it as the title, then I could sue them as well. I'd be flattered or dismayed, depending on how the character with my name was portrayed, but I wouldn't sue.
No, the point is whoever was christened Harry Potter came first. A name is a name, not "intellectual property", according to you. By your logic, whoever gives birth to a boy and names him Harry when the family name is Potter can be sued. What a riot!
A Boy Named Harry Potter up against a Troll, hmmmmmmmmmm what was Harry's first thing he went up against creature wise in the books oh shit what was it hmmmmmm?
Actually no im not another Rowling Hater but im not retarded enough to not know she borrowed from other peoples works, from Troll to the Worst Witch book series.
hoy he visto la peli y lo que nos hemos podido reir con lo del gorro!!! que pinta un gorro de pescador del betis en esta peli!!! jejejejej y pq se llama justo harry potter??? jajaja dioses, temiendo que hubiera segunda parte y la hay ademas!!!
Rowling said she never saw this film, and that the idea for her books just popped into her head. I really hope there's no lawsuits because that would just be stupid. I certainly don't recall Clockwork Orange actor James Marcus suing the makers of Resident Evil 0.

No story is original, ok? Every book you've ever read was inspired by something else. I'm no Rowling lover, but give her a break.

This film was released in 1986 and the first Harry Potter book written by J.K Rowling was released in 1995, you work it out.

The movie came before the books. She wouldn't win in court. Not a just one anyway.
Although I'm not sure changing the name a little would be a big deal either. (i haven't seen the film so excuse me if this is incorrect)
I love her books but she get all huffy and tries to sue people kinda often doesn't she?

And BTW, if they're remaking this movie, they should change the name of that character. Rowling owns the copyright to Harry Potter now :D ROFLMAO!

You're telling me that the Harry Potter in this movie DESERVES THE NAME MORE THAN JK Rowling's boy wizard??? You'd be laughed out of court.
A minor crappy horror movie from the 80s versus a PUBLISHING PHENOMENON - yes, I know who they'd support :)
You must really hate Rowling's works.
Dumbass.

And Troll sucks, the rating on IMDb proves it.

I don't think she knew about Troll, but the Worst Witch is another matter - there ARE a lot of coincidences there, I have to agree.
