Late on Friday The Daily Beast published an essay from former Lost executive producer Damon Lindelof about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I . The crux of it: Because Lindelof, a life-long Harry Potter fanatic, found himself hating The Deathly Hallows , he finally understood what it meant to be a fan. Specifically, he finally understood that the irate sect of Lost fans who hated the series’ ending had merit. “I sincerely and genuinely apologize to all those whom I have stripped of their Lost fandom just for complaining about the stuff you didn’t like. It doesn’t make you any less a fan,” Lindelof wrote. “In fact, it just makes you honest. I respect that. And I’m genuinely sorry for ever feeling otherwise.” Which begs the question: Why?
