IShowSpeed is coming under fire for conceding to never having watched Harry Potter, and fans are decimating him, to put it lightly.

Speaking to an ESPN reporter at the Fanatics Super Bowl party, when asked about what classic movie he's never watched or missed out on, he told the world, "Harry Potter!"

Considering the fact that it was the cornerstone of most of our childhoods, some fans even argue that it's almost like a right of way. Notably, a few said they hadn't seen it, though the comments section was overwhelmingly filled with satirical rage at learning the media personality's secret.

We've rounded up all of the funniest comments on X, some of which are sure to leave you two in splits!
