I think the entire cast is excellent, but the first dude who played Dumbledore fit the role better. The second one is too energetic for my tastes.


I agree very much, the original was more fit for the job, and the new one copied his style the first movie after he took on the role. But since then he has become less of the book Dumbledore.

I think they have all grown as actors incredibly, but look-wise (obviously not something they can help) is changing. Matthew Lewis (Neville) has lost the weight that his character has. Daniel Radcliffe got some muscle, which Potter is portrayed as a skinny, underfed boy. Emma Watson has turned incredibly beautiful and lost the scruffiness Hermione should have. Like I said, not their fault, they can't be expected to look like their characters forever, but just something I noticed.

Emma's acting hasn't impressed me in the last three movies.

Everyone else, most notably Daniel, is improving.

Not really, considering how she doesn't shut up in the book. I do agree she isn't amazing or anything, but they really do cut her out.

I actually thought some of Emma's screentime should've been given to Rupert in OOTP. Emma was plain obnoxious in some of those scenes... and it's not like she did anything important until leading Umbridge into the Forbidden Forest. She was mainly an exposition machine.

Because Dan decided to become a muscle builder, well, ge has muscles now and HP was skinny. Has anyone noticed that Harry is wearing nice clothes in the new movies, I am pretty sure his aunt didn't start buying him nice clothes all of a sudden.

Why you guys bother complaining about this when you know the movie sucked in the first place . You guys don't even get a single thing what i've said

I think that they are awesome. In the movies they are great from the beginning and up to now and latter. They picked great people to play the parts and i think its great. There not growing up to fast and they stick to the movies perfect.

I would say it is better when they grow up. I also like the fact that Emma is actually the same age as Hermione now.

I think that they are better and I guess I can relate more. It's cool growing up with the films. Smile Smile

dan's hairstyle is so unlike harry from the books which is black and messy while dan rad got a short and gelled one. in GOF he almost got harry's hairstyle which is totally my favorite. but it's ashame that he cutted it off Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad ....

but i agree that emma has grown a lot beautiful, more than beautiful than scruffy and bushy hermione. rupert is okay as ron. as for matthew lewis, he made neville looked like he's been on a diet or something.while bonnie wright she's okay with ginny but her hair made ginny looked like a red haired avril lavigne or bill kaulitz(if his hair isnt spikey)...
