Maybe you should warn about spoilers. Not everyone has read all the books or watched all the movies. Saddest death answers can ruin a lot. I'll come back and answer later.

Flannen agrees: lol, I prefer Gambon's Dumbledore to Richard Harris. I thought he was much more Dumbledore-like!

Now that's just crazy talk! ;P

 

[Flannen]

Now that's just crazy talk! ;P

Haha! I liked Richard Harris' portrayal, don't get me wrong, but given the way in which Dumbledore's story develops I just think Gambon does that better.

 

[InsaneMystic]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book? - Chamber of Secrets or Prisoner of Azkaban, I can't pick.
What's your favorite Harry Potter movie? - Only one I really loved was the first one. Gotta say that the 5th was TONS better than I expected, after the 4th was a total let-down for me. (I haven't seen the 6th one yet, anyway.)

[thevikingsgirl]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?
Deathly Hallows

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?
I like them all. I don't think I have a favorite; I don't LOVE the movies the way I love the books.

Who is your favorite character?
Severus Snape

Favorite Weasley?
That's a very tough choice. Probably Ron.

Your favorite couple?
Do we have to do the spoiler thing for the last book? I don't know how to do it. So everyone who's read the last book can probably figure it out.

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?
All of them. Brilliant casting all the way around.

Which house is your favorite?
I would be in Ravenclaw but I like Gryffendor.

Favorite moment or scene?
I love the final scenes of Deathly Hallows. Not the epilogue but the end of the real story. But there are sooooooo many scenes I love.

Saddest death?
Wish I knew how to do the spoiler thing. It's in Deathly Hallows and it's really what follows this person's death that gets me.

Favorite animal?
Hedwig

 

[Mumrik]

MinwaraYana agrees:

Spoiler

I think Fred died and George lost an ear.

Oh, you're right! :embarrassed: *dies of the stupid* I think I wrote

Spoiler

George because I felt so sorry for him XD

 

[Wishing Oceans]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?

Definitely DH. 😀 I loved HBP, but DH just has so many plot twists and character development. Plus, one of my fav 'ships became canon! 😀

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?

The Prisoner of Azkaban, definitely. I've actually been pretty disappointed with the HP movies lately, they've been leaving so much out! (I blame the new director... And also Richard (Dumbledore) for dying. 🙁 )

Who is your favorite character?

Sirius Black, who, coincidentally, is also my overall all-time favorite character. 😀

Favorite Weasley?

Either Fred or Ron, but I love 'em all. 😀

Your favorite couple?

DEFINTELY Lily/James, they're one of my "signature" couples. 😀 I also really enjoy Romione, but Jily is just so... Amazing. :biggrin3:

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?

Umm, I dunno, I guess I like them all. 🙂 Although, as Flanny said, Helena was FANTASTIC as Bella.

Which house is your favorite?

I like them all. 😀 Of course, I'm a Ravenclaw girl myself, but the (NOT online) Grffindors are awesome. :biggrin3:

Favorite moment or scene?

The "Snape's Worst Memory" chapter in HBP was EPIC, and I'm also in love with that chapter in DH where the whole Snape/Lily/James/Sirius history was revealed. 🙂

Saddest death?

I'm thinking either

Spoiler

Fred's or Remus'

. I really didn't expect either one. 🙁

Favorite animal?

They're all great, but I'm really into Pheonixes/Unicorns. 😀

 

[frankie]

Yay. I'm such a newbie Harry Potter fan, I get to discuss it for the first time. 🙂


What's your favorite Harry Potter book?
The Half Blood Prince.

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?
The Goblet of Fire. Voldermort revealed.🙂

Who is your favorite character?
Luna.

Favorite Weasley?
Bill or Molly.

Your favorite couple?

Spoiler

Ron And Hermione. Wish I could say Harry and Luna.

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?
Rupert Grint. When I read the books he's the only one from the movies that I pictured as the character.

Which house is your favorite?
Gryffindor.

Favorite moment or scene?

Loads. 🙂 All of the chapter "The Prince's Tale".
" Not my daughter, you bitch " Molly shows what a smackdown is. 😀
Luna's comment to Harry about The Veil. " They were just lurking out of sight,that's all, you heard them." Very sweet.


Saddest death?[/B

Spoiler

Tonks.

Favorite animal?
Fawkes.

 

[Willow-Tree]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?
Deathly Hallows.

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?
Order of the Phoenix or Prisoner of Azkaban.

Hermione Granger, Luna Lovegood, Ron Weasley, Cho Chang, Tonks

Favorite Weasley?
Ron

Ron and Hermione, Lilly/James, Snape/Lilly

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?
Emma Watson, Evanna Lynch, Bonnie Wright, Helena Bonham Carter, Gary Oldman

Which house is your favorite?
Ravenclaw

Favorite moment or scene?
I love the Quidditch scenes, and the death scenes (or ones leading up). I also love the romance scenes lol.

Saddest death?
Snape, Hedwig (seriously, come on...), Dobby...

Favorite animal?
The Thestral. Creepy, yet gorgeous creature.

 

[Vengeance]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?

Have to be Goblet of Fire, it's the only one I can go back and listen to on an audiobook over and over and still enjoy it as much as I did the first read.

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?

Prisoner of Azkaban. The fourth one did not live up to my great expectation of the book, the fifth one was godawful and the sixth was better but not quite as good as PoA.

Who is your favorite character?

Luna.

Favorite Weasley?

Fred&George of course.

Your favorite couple?

I'll branch out here and say Bill/Fleur. Or possibly Lupin/Tonks. Ron/Hermione and Harry/Ginny did absolutely nothing for me.

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?

Tom Felton does a great Malfoy but Alan Rickman does an awesome Snape.

Which house is your favorite?

Branching out again I'd say Slytherin. Minus the whole, "let's kill people for fun" that tends to plague the house.

Favorite moment or scene?

When Crouch Jr is confessing at the end of the fourth book.

Saddest death?

The only death that actually brought a tear to my eye had to be

Spoiler

Dobby's.

Favorite animal?

Dragon of course.

 

[Angelic Slayer]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?
Definitely the Half-Blood Prince. Azkaban is a close second, but when I was reading HBP I just kept leafing back through my old books. That volume in the series just seemed to be so well planned out (there were so many "hints" to it in the old books!), and those are the kind of books I can really get into. It was a sad book, but really well written I thought.

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?
Well I hate to admit it, but I haven't actually seen the latest movie (it's horrible, I know!). But I really did like the Order of the Phoenix. Thought that was a more light-hearted movie that the others, in a way. Had some great scenes in that one (like Fred/George "dropping out" of school 😀)

Who is your favorite character?
Sirius Black, hands down. I wish they had kept him in the series until the end, I really like his story! Hagrid was also a sweetie, he was one of those characters that I just don't think you can hate 😀

Favorite Weasley?
Fred/George. I know that's technically two of them, but they were a great pair. Very entertaining!

Your favorite couple?
I never really got interested in couples in the Harry Potter-verse, actually. It wasn't a part of the story that I was really keen on. That being said, I always thought that Ron and Hermione would make a good match; they were really cute. Had a great friend-turned-more dynamic.

Spoiler

They end up together, right?

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?
Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid), Alan Rickman (Snape) and Maggie Smith (McGonagall) all did a superb job, I think. Seasoned actors aside though, Matthew Lewis (Longbottom) and Evanna Lynch (Lovegood) also had some great performances in the Order of the Pheonix. Both of them really surprised me with their believability.

Which house is your favorite?
Gryffindor, of course! 😀 Although those huffle-puffers weren't always so bad, either.

Favorite moment or scene?
In the first movie, when Hermione tells off the boys for causing trouble. "You could get us killed, or worse-- expelled!" :silly: Hermione has had some great one-liners like that over the years.

Saddest death?

Spoiler

Fred and Dobby

. I was going to say Sirius (I seriously just about cried reading the scene where he died) but Sirius I was kind of expecting. Those two were both huge shockers to me though, it made their deaths that much sadder. 🙁

Favorite animal?
Definitely Fawkes, the Pheonix. I wish I had me one of them!

 

[anyatara]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?
I always find it hard to answer that question, mostly because I love them all; in different ways. I think I'd probably go for the Deathly Hallows, mostly because I loved the storyline.

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?
So far the Order of the Phoenix. When I first saw it I thought it was going to be too dragged on, but I really love it. I think that both parts of DH might be better though, I'll just have to wait and see.

Who is your favorite character?
Bellatrix Lestrange, and Luna Lovegood. It's a tie.

Favorite Weasley?
Gred and Forge Fred and George.

Your favorite couple?
It's odd; I used to be a diehard Harry/Hermione shipper, and I was so set against Ron/Hermione, but I've slowly fallen to love them. So, Ron/Hermione. 😀

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?
Helena Bonham Carter <3

Which house is your favorite?
I love both Ravenclaw and Slytherin. I just love most of the Slytherin characters, but I think if I were to be sorted into a Hogwarts house, it'd be Ravenclaw.

Favorite moment or scene?
Tough one. Hm, I'd probably say anything quidditch-related, I love watching quidditch.

Saddest death?

Spoiler

Fred or Tonks

Favorite animal?
Thestrals, I found them fascinating and beautiful.

 

[PrincessBuffy16]

[Lindsey McDonald]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?

Order of the Phoenix is probably my favourite. I love when the castle rises up as one. If I could chose the last third of Deathly Hallows I would, but the sense of loyalty is most pervasive all the way through Book 5.

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?

I like Azkaban from a cinematographic standpoint, but Half Blood Prince was so much fun. The end wins it for me.

Who is your favorite character?

Luna. You all know why. Also, Minerva, Albus, and Lily.

Favorite Weasley?

Molly. Jo does mothers so well. I mean, the entire series is about maternal love!

Your favorite couple?

Drarry.


Wait, who said that? :O I mean Bill/Fleur. I thought it was really sweet.

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?

I love Helena Bonham-Carter, and I love her Bellatrix....but it's not Bellatrix Lestrange that she plays. I'm glad they chose to take her in the direction they did though.

I think if Alan Rickman can pull off The Prince's Tale he'll go right up in my estimation. He knew where the character was going, so I'm really hoping he's been holding back so the conclusion to Severus' story is more powerful.

Dame Maggie Smith is, of course, a legend.

I really dislike Gambondore. Angry, hands-on Dumbledore is not Dumbledore.

Which house is your favorite?

I'm a Ravenclaw. 😉

Favorite moment or scene?

Book Five, McGonagall rebelling against Umbridge with Peeves.

It unscrews the other way

I also love the whole Shell Cottage section. Harry grows up. My favourite quote comes from there, and I love it all the more because it's practically a throwaway line:

He had learned control at last, learned to shut his mind to Voldemort, the very thing Dumbledore had wanted him to learn from Snape. Just as Voldemort had not been able to possess Harry while Harry was consumed with grief for

Spoiler

Sirius

, so his thoughts could not penetrate Harry now, while he mourned

Spoiler

Dobby

. Grief, it seemed, drove Voldemort out...though Dumbledore, of course, would have said that it was love...

The grief is love concept is just beautiful. The whole "greatest weapon is love" thing has the potential to be so cheesy, but when you think of it like that...it really isn't.

Saddest death?

Spoiler

Dumbledore.

. By a mile. I was a mess, lol!

Favorite animal?

The Phoenix. Fawkes particularly. "A circle has no beginning."

 

[faeriegrrl27]

What's your favorite Harry Potter book? Half-Blood Prince. I'm a wee bit in love with Tom Riddle, so I dug all the flashbacks!

What's your favorite Harry Potter movie? I'm not a big fan of the movies. But, if I had to pick one, I'd go with Chamber of Secrets, I suppose.

Who is your favorite character? Luna Lovegood. I can just really relate to her and I love that she's so cool about herself. I also really like Ron and the Twins. Oh, and of course Tom Riddle. Mmmmmmm...

Favorite Weasley? Ron or Fred. They're so much fun!

Your favorite couple? Tom Riddle/Me. Snape/Lilly. Ron/Hermione. Harry/The Giant Squid. 🙂

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)? Rupert Grant. He has Ron down well. I heard something about the directors asking the Core Three to write papers on their characters and he blew his off because that's what Ron would do. 🙂

Which house is your favorite? Ravenclaw!! I *love* the way to get into their dormroom!

Favorite moment or scene? Tom Riddle and Hepsiba Smith. I could just die with how... not wonderful, but... beautiful Tom Riddle is in that scene! But I also love any and all interactions between McGonagall and Umbridge. Especially when she's sitting in on her meeting with Harry and keeps coughing and McGonagall is just like, "May I offer you a cough-drop, Dolores?"

Saddest death?

Spoiler

Snape's, maybe? Or perhaps Fred's. It was just so sudden! And right when he and Percy were making up. 🙁

Favorite animal? crumple horned snorkack

 

[TheVoid68]

Yay, Harry Potter thread! 😀

What's your favorite Harry Potter book?
Order of the Phoenix.
What's your favorite Harry Potter movie?
Overall, either Half-Blood Prince or Prisoner of Azkaban. But if you compare how good each movie was to the book it's based on, then Chamber of Secrets was the best.
Who is your favorite character?
Luna Lovegood. One of the most sympathetic and awesome characters in literary history.
Favorite Weasley?
Ron.
Your favorite couple?

Spoiler

Canon: Ron/Hermione. They were cute and fun to read about.
Non-canon: Harry/Luna. These two work so well it hurts. They win a place in my "Holy Trinity" of ships (Harry/Luna, Buffy/Faith and Angel/Cordelia)

Who's your favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?
Alan Rickman and Evanna Lynch. They are absolutely perfect for Snape and Luna.
Favorite moment or scene?
The final duel with Voldemort, and Harry's earlier walk to the Forbidden Forest. And Fawkes' song at DD's funeral.
Saddest death?

Spoiler

"Here lies Dobby, a free elf." *sniff*

Favorite animal?
Phoenix. Fawkes was badass. The thestrals are cool too.
Favourite line?
"NOT MY DAUGHTER YOU BITCA!"

To turn these questions on their head:
Yay, Harry Potter thread! 😀

What's your least favorite Harry Potter book?
Chamber of Secrets. Just by default - it's not bad, it's just not as brilliant as the others.
What's your least favorite Harry Potter movie?
Order of the Phoenix. It's a complete butchering of a great book.
Who is your least favorite character?
Draco. Stupid, slimy, racist git who only avoided Azkaban by simply being too incompetent with his evil, and who's idea of a cutting retort is "Potter stinks".
Least favorite Weasley?
Charlie. Just because we never learned anything of interest about him.
Your least favorite couple?

Spoiler

Harry/Ginny. They just did nothing for me. They never had any interaction that would ever lead me to believe that they are "soulmates" as JKR claims. They barely seemed to know anything meaningful about each other. She just knows the stories of the Boy Who Lived, and all he knows is that she has red hair and she's a good kisser.
Who's your least favorite Harry Potter actor(s)?
Bonnie Wright. I'm sure she's a lovely girl, but she's just not that great an actress. Very wooden and awkward.
Least favorite moment or scene?
The epilogue. It read like a piece of bad OBHWF fanfiction.
Leas sad death?

Spoiler

I'm gonna have to say Tonks. I never disliked here but I was never particularly attached to her, and as she died offscreen, I didn't really dwell on it

Least favorite animal?
Wormtail. 😛
Least favourite line?

Spoiler

"All was well." Excuse me while I go throw up my kidneys.
