[HPFGU-Movie] Your favorite actor/actress in HP movies

[Nightbreed]

I wasn't thrilled with Michael Gambon's Dumbledore. My first thought when
Harris died is that they should hire Michael Caine, I still think that
should have been the choice.

 

But, I have to say Gambon didn't have much to do in parts 3,4 &5. If you
think about it, the character was given very little to say or do in those
films. However, the final fight between Dumbledore and Voldemorte at the end
of OOTP started to turn me to his side. He handed not just the magic (the
way you can actually see him manipulating the water with his hand was
brilliant) but the fierce protection of Harry and his emotional connection
with Harry when he was possessed was really the best he'd come to breathing
a soul into the character.

 

I'm really looking forward to HBP, although I think I may now skip it in the
theater and wait for Blu-Ray because, quite frankly, WB can kiss my. for
moving the release date. If I can wait another year, I can wait a year and a
half.

I think that the HP Movies have a very diverse and gifted group of actors.

My favorite actor was Richard Harris in PS/SS and CoS. He was closer to the
Dumbledore that I imagined as I read the books. Lately, I have been very
impressed with Dan Radcliffe. His acting in OOTP excelled past that of a
"child" actor and hit some real depth. The scene where he showed the fight
within Harry for control against Voldemorte was very powerful.

My favorite actress in the series would be Julie Walters. As Molly Weasley,
she is very good at conveying the love and affection for her family and
Harry. She has few lines to tell it in, but her scenes make me smile. The
new addition of Evanna Lynch was exactly as I imagined from reading the
books.
