What's everyone's favourite book? Mine is and always has been the third one. I don't know what it is about it, but I just adore that book. In my collection, it's the one that looks the most tattered because I've read it so many times!
Currently half way through re-reading Goblet of Fire =]
The third film was such a disappointment to me. Everything just seemed all wrong. As much as I like the guy who plays Sirius, that just wasn't what I expected hm to look like, and the same with Lupin. The werewolf also looked stupid! I was so gutted =[
I've only read Deathly Hallows once. A part of me is afraid to read it again, just in case for some reason I don't like it. Does that make any sense?
See now, Order of the Phoenix annoyed me for the angst. As much as I feel so sorry for Harry, he really did take his anger out on everyone else and it really annoyed me. They were trying to help him, for God sake ¬_¬
My least favourite is probably the second one. Not sure why, it just is xD
I don't know, I just never warmed to him. Maybe it's because I've always been a huge Snape fan, so I sided with him.
I soooooooooooooo wanted Snape to be evil though. I really, really, did. It still pains me. In fact, the entire final book pains me. I don't even read it now. I just make up my own ending.
I still think it would've been better if he was evil. I knew it was never going to happen, but yeah. And I didn't really like Grumblebum/Dumbledore either.
I don't think anyone in Harry Potter is truly evil, which is quite similar to really life. There tends to be a reason why someone acted that way.
I went through stages of liking and disliking Dumbledore. I think sometimes he was incredibly selfish and seemed to forget that Harry was just a teenage boy; not some weapon that had no feelings.
His irresponsibility? For someone who was so aware of Harry's significance and always knew that Voldy wasn't really gone, he didn't do that much to protect Harry. Take PS, the 'locked' door could be opened with a simple spell. He could have put a much, much stronger lock on that.
He also never told Harry the things that he should really have known. He was always hiding something.
But then I see James and Sirius as nothing more than annoying and arrogant bullies. Yes, they were obviously very skilled at magic, but they weren't exactly nice. They were never redeemed for me.

I always thought he did this to help Harry grow as a person, and because J.K Rowling knew it was a great plot device!
Haha, but in retrospect Dumbly-dore does have a fair few flaws. But hey, who doesn't.
I'm sure he did really love Harry though. This I will protest till I die.

Yeah, obviously a plot-device, but that's not the point lol.
I just saw him as being a bit selfish, and a bit of a user really. I'm sure he did like Harry, but probably because he was so important rather than because of who he was as a person. He didn't show the same sort of interest in any of the others, because they weren't as important in the grand scheme of things. Harry was always a means to an end, and Dumbledore probably always knew that.

He was being selfish for the noblest of reasons. Surely that counts for something?
He seemed to have a collective love for his students, but it was different from the love he had for Harry.
I feel like I'm punching santa in the face. Haha, Dumbledore was one of my idols.
I'm sure he could have went about things in a different way. But that's just me. I just never really warmed to him as a character. He never sat right with me. The story was told through Harry's eyes, so I guess we see the DD that he sees.
