Hello,

I'm Nina from Ohio.  I'm a librarian and a writer and general
worshipper/drooler at the shrines of Alan Rickman and Jason Issacs. :)

LOL.  Yeah, I was so happy for Neville that he got to mature, find some
backbone.  The actor has to be thrilled.  Otoh, Gary Oldman may've had an
idea that he wouldn't be locked in to more than two movies, making his
decision easier.

In truth, Daniel will have a chance to stretch his acting chops.  Some
readers are already complaining that Harry is whiny in OOP.  Even though
I, in my "ancient" wisdom (ha!) can see things a 15-year-old doesn't, I
don't think he's whiny, but all that teen angst n' anger can easily cross
over into annoying if done poorly.

Nice to be here,
Nina
