>   After seeing HBP, I thought her acting was even better than in the other films. She has realy grown as an actress. I'm not sure Rupert can play roles different in type than Rob; but I'm sure Daniel and Emma will be able to take on many different roles. I also had always missed Richard Harris as Dumbledore; but in HBP, I thought Michael Gambon was just wonderful! It also gave Draco a chance to do more and I think he was up to it. I always enjoy Luna's acting.... so natural! Snape,of course, is brilliant as usual I thought.



Agreed that Emma is much improved in HBP. Her eyebrows are under control now.

By the way, Rupert has played roles very different from Ron (or Rob, as you called him). His acting has been limited by the scripts of HP movies but that doesn't mean he's limited as an actor. He was an introvert in Driving Lessons and was quite convincing. Also has two new films coming up. One is an action/comedy type of thing with Bill Nighy. I have no idea what his character is like. Another is an Irish teen flick called Cherry Bomb. There are some clips on youtube:
