Speaking of strange canonical choices, the whole situation surrounding Dumbledore's supposed sexuality is a real mess. I mean, let's be real, the whole thing has been a mess from the start, ever since J.K. Rowling retroactively made Dumbledore gay in the first place. I already wrote about this in-depth if you'd like to read my critique about how it's handled in The Crime of Grindelwald, but this really stretches into a bigger thing. Even in the books, if Dumbledore was gay, there should have been some overt way of letting us know. Stop putting homosexuality in the subtext! Give us an out, proud, gay, unapologetic character, damn it!
