Gary Oldman is an extremely versatile and prolific actor, having roles in many movies besides HP. Let everyone know what movies you've seen with him in it, and what you thought of those movies.

The only one I've seen is the cartoon, Quest for Camelot. It is a great movie, and not childish, with Gary Oldman providing the voice of Ruber, the antagonist. This movie deals with many issues. A girl, Kaylee, has to try to achieve her dreams the hard way, after her father is murdered and can no longer provide her with an easy way to become a knight like she wants. This hits really close to home because my father died of leukemia when I was 10. He actually taped this movie for me when I was little, and we'd watch it together. Another issue confronted in this movie are the limitations of blindness. Kaylee's companion and eventual love interest, Garreth, is blind. He wanted to become a knight, but when he became blind he had to live as a hermit. Kaylee and Garreth help each other overcome these things as they work together to save the magic sword, Excalibur, from Ruber. Providing comedy relief is a two-headed dragon. There is also some amazing music in this movie. I highly reccommend it to eveyone, because it is such an incredible mix of humor, fantasy, and overcoming challenges.

Hurrah for censorship! Apparently I'm not allowed to say that I wasn't allowed to say something in my sig. Point is, PM me if you wanna know why I've stopped posting.
