I agree. Many of the more disagreeable characters have been heavy:
Uncle Vernon, Dudley (although he did redeem himself), Aunt Marge,
and Dolores Umbridge. Is it too much to ask for a positive heavy
character, particularly a female one? I do concede she does throw
us a bone with Neville-- he starts out the series as the proto-
typical stupid fat kid, he ends up being quite the brave character.

His bravery reared about the same time JKR had stopped quipping or hitting readers over the head with just how gargantuan Neville was, but by then the Neville of the movies had slimmed considerably also...she must have taken inspiration from WB as she sure knows how to spin the marketing wheels...meh!
