There's been a lot of talk about firing Gambon. I  agree that I don't 
like his portrayal of Dumbledore in the latest  film....but does the 
fault lie with him? Here are the people that deserve  slaps, wedgies, 
howlers or envelopes of bubbertubber puss:

Julie now:
I have a better idea. Why don't we all just lighten up a bit? They  are
only movies. (And, yes, even the HP books are only books.)  Should
we take this all seriously enough that we'd actually try to get  an actor 
FIRED if we don't agree with his interpretation of a character? (This
isn't directed at you, Jason, but a question to the list in general.)
 
Maybe it's only me, but I find the idea of a petition to get  Gambon
fired downright rude behavior. Snape-like behavior even ;-) Should  it
actually gather steam and hit the media, it would not put HP fans 
in a very good light at all. I'd reconsidering taking this route. I  really
would. 
 
JMO, of course,
