This but unironically. Aphantasia sucks for reading.

The thing that really got me was the placement of his scar.

You can blame JK Rowling for the movie placement.

Additionally, when asked to consult on the Harry Potter films, an interview with TIME in 2001 reveals that J.K. Rowling told then-director Christopher Columbus the scar was on the right side of Harry's forehead.

Me too. I remember being Harry for Halloween one year, completely basing the costume on the book art/descriptions. When the movies came out, the scar placement was the first thing I noticed was "wrong".
