Oldman was a major spur to watching the movie in the first place for me, the
guy is really underrated outside of UK culture. One of those frighteningly
good method actors. But face it, the movies needed a change in direction even
though the topology of Hogwarts looks like a Sims fan took to it, and Harry &
Co's idea of fun is getting creepy these days, which was an interesting point
a few viewers noticed. Can't wait for ze next vun.
