Why Harry Potter's mean Uncle Vernon hated the boy wizard so much, by JK R

For all you wizard fans here:

Why Harry Potter's mean Uncle Vernon hated the boy wizard so much, by JK Rowling

+ New film coming !!!

She wrote: 'James was amused by Vernon, and made the mistake of showing it.
'Vernon tried to patronise James, asking what car he drove. James described his racing broom.
'Vernon supposed out loud that wizards had to live on unemployment benefit. James explained about Gringotts, and the fortune his parents had saved there, in solid gold.
Writing on her popular website Pottermore, JK Rowling has finally divulged what exactly provoked Vernon's dislike of Harry - his hatred for his father

Writing on her popular website Pottermore, JK Rowling has finally divulged what exactly provoked Vernon's dislike of Harry - his hatred for his father
'Vernon could not tell whether he was being made fun of or not, and grew angry.
'The evening ended with Vernon and Petunia storming out of the restaurant, while Lily burst into tears and James (a little ashamed of himself) promised to make things up with Vernon at the earliest opportunity.'
But the two couples never reconciled and the Dursleys later refused to attend Lily and James's wedding, due to the falling out.
The short story then makes it clear that it is Harry's uncanny resemblance to his dead father, who was so disliked by Vernon, that provoked his uncle's wrath.
Rowling added: 'Uncle Vernon's dislike of Harry stems in part, like Severus Snape's, from Harry's close resemblance to the father they both so disliked.'

AND NEW FILM!!!

The revelation will bring an end to many fan theories for the cause for the uneasy relationship.
Warner Brothers recently announced that Oscar-winning actor Eddie Redmayne will star in Harry Potter spin-off film Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them.
Eddie will play magizoologist Newt Scamander, 'who in his travels has encountered and documented a myriad of magical creatures.’
The tale is set in New York, 70 years before the saga of boy wizard Potter and is described as neither a prequel or sequel, but rather an extension of author JK Rowling's popular Wizarding World of magic.

erm, I happen to really like Harry Potter.  I may not ever live that down, but I do.  I also like Dragonlance and the Forgotten Realms.
