I liked the dumbledoor in the first movie, but am i right in thinking he passed away? I know he was very well known but i cannot remember the actors name...
Yes Tom Felton does a good job as Draco. I was really surprised how much his looks have changed in the third movie, i was sure that it was a different actor for quite a while.
I like Emma Watson's acting in the first and second movie, but in the third she (or Alfonso, dont know) sort of decided to drop Hermione's bossy, snappy and highly sensitive character a little, also giving her all the best lines. Sometimes they have to give her extra lines im sure, because giving the lines to their original speakers sometimes means having to include a lot more scenes that were originally planned to be cut out. But some lines just seem to be there in order to make her character look better, and in turn downgrades Ron's and Dumbledoor's characters, which annoys me. We dont need certain lines to keep on telling us that Hermione is bossy if she could manage to do it simply by her acting.
Im not sure about Daniel Radcliffe, in the third movie he seems to have played Harry with a lot more aggression than i ever thought of him in the books or how he sounded in Stephen Fry's audio books installment of the Harry Potter series. However I sometimes wonder whether that was intentional, because i could imagine Harry striking as more aggressive on the outside. I think of Harry as mostly modest, and quite often even embarrased about being modest which to me means trying to come across as more aggressive like everyone else than he really is. :/ (Are you confused? I was when i read what i just wrote, but there is a point i was trying to get across with that.) Radcliffe has certain moments where he really reminds of of Harry though, like that scene where he is talking to Lupin about why he didnt let him fight the bogart, i thought he played pretty well.
Rupert Grint is a good Ron i think, im just annoyed that they made him a bit more stupid in the films than he really is, and gave a lot of his lines away to other characters, such as Hermione (Hermio-nee-nee for all krum fans)
Now Alan Rickman has to be one of my favourite actors in the Harry Potter films! Maggy Smith is also good! Uhmm, ill come back with more some other time..
