Favorite Character?

Sirius Black. His intelligence and cunning are great, but what makes me admire him most is his ultimate willingness to sacrifice his life for anyone, and his unconditional love for Harry. I love his absolute bravery and his priority towards his friends and the people he loves above all us. I also love Harry, Ron, Hermoine, Tonks, and Lupin.

Severus Snape is my favorite. I really liked his Character from the first book to the last and I all ways had a feeling he was Good deep down. He was the constant cliff hanger for me "IS he or isn't he good or bad." I was crushed at the end of Half blood Prince but was not sold on him really being Voldemort's pupped. Something Dumbldore said to Severus just before he killed him had me think it was planed. then I finally read Deathly Hollow's and I was right and cried for hours after he shared his memory's with Harry. I had not guess that his character had some much depth till then and that's when I feel in love with Severus Snape.

I wanted to add that it would be next to impossible for me to answer this. It is hard in my mind to seperate the characters in the book from their movie counterparts. I believe that some of the characters were actually better on film due in part to the actors who portrayed them.
My favorite character is probably Minerva McGonagall because I think she is wise, strong, loyal and protective. She is everything that a great professor or teacher should be. The flip side is that Maggie Smith is one of my favorites and I think that there are subtle facial and vocal expressions that she uses to bring the character to life even better than the character is written.
Along with that, Molly Weasley, Snape, Mad Eyed Moody are all favorites of mine and I think that they are added to by the actors that portray them. Alan Rickman is incredible as an actor and in the role. I told my sister that I have a weak spot for Mad Eye and as she told me, which one because we don't even see the real him through most of the Goblet of Fire. I think I realized then that it is maybe Brendan Gleeson's portrayal that drew me in as well as the character.

BTW...I do like Lucius Malfoy because I do think he is hot as well as all of the great reasons mentioned again...sorry but I had to add that. I can't help but look at him when he is on screen. Again, I attribute part of that to Jason Issacs as an actor too.
Sorry to ramble.

I could go on a lot more but I will end it with this. Harry Potter as a movie series is very special to me because some of my favorite Actors ever are in the movies and I feel we are lucky to get to see their work in a collective place like that.

Bellatrix Lestrange, Why?: link

If you dont want to click the link: I have been on the Harry Potter spot for a while now and I constantly find myself getting asked "why do you like Bellatrix?" So I decided to type up this article. Thank you lifeisgoodx3 for inspiring me to do so.

So why would some one like a person who killed Sirius, Dobby, Tonks, and tortured Hermione and the Longbottms? Well I actually have multiple reasons as to why I like her; Bellatrix stands for what she believes in, she's crazy and funny, pretty, unique, strong and confident, she has an interesting story behind her, I can relate to her, she has potential to be a good guy, and I have a lot of good memories that relate to her.

Firstly, Bellatrix is very loyal and devoted. Though her loyalties lie on the evil side and her devotion is to someone darker then dark the trait is apparent. I respect and admire the fact that Bellatrix is so dedicated. Bellatrix never one thought about betraying Voldemort or switching sides. Bellatrix spent fifteen years in Azkaban unlike a lot of the Death Eaters who wormed their way out of it believing that Voldemort was gone for good. Bella kept her faith in Voldemort, believing he would return for her. In the end her waiting payed off, she rightfully earned her place as 'the Dark Lord's most faithful.'

Which leads to the fact that Bellatrix stands up for what she believes in. Bellatrix was so loyal to her cause that she would stand for it even if it coasted her, her life, and it did. Bellatrix's death was in vain, she died fighting for Voldemort, his death being only minutes after her's. The cause Bellatrix had once stood for fell. The fact that Bellatrix died for something she believed in, to me is respectable... Got cut off from here.

My favourite charcter is Luna Lovegood. She is so dreamy and ditzy, and has a crazy way of doing things!!
I also really like her because I can relate to her easily... she has a personality like mine, except I'm proabably a lot more louder and more outgoing than her, but we dress the same, and are into crazy stuff!!!
She is also really smart and evolves into a great character in the series and becomes good friends with Harry, Ron and Hermione.
She is also really pretty!

Harry Potter. Because the all books were in his perspective and I couldn't help liking him because I understood him better.

Severus Snape. I think he's one of the more interesting characters. He's a bit of a mystery and, to some extent I can relate to him.

Bellatrix Lestrange, sister-in-law to your beloved. Shes wacko enough and angry enough to do what she damn feels like doing. And she is very loyal. Plus I get a kick out of everything she says and does. Except kill Sirius, I liked Sirius.

Ron Weasley. He is funny (I love his sense of humor), brave, loyal, honest, a good friend, etc. I like him mainly because he is not perfect; he is real. He doesn't have as much intelligence and wizarding ability as his friends (Harry and Hermione). However, it is the fact that he doesn't have these traits in abundance that makes him so special. Because despite the fact that he knows he isn't brilliant ( he is smart, but not like Hermione, lol), he is really loyal towards his friends and courageous. Ron is a normal guy, who does extraordinary things.

Weasley is my king! :)

I honestly can't choose between Harry, Ron and Hermione now. My favourite character of all time will always be Haromione (sound good? don't lie it's crap lol). They're a team. None of them can work without the others. There's no way Harry could have defeated Voldemort without Ron and Hermione even if the only reason is that he loved them so much he knew he had to sacrifice himself for them to live. If he didn't have them could he really be that selfless? He had everyone else as well like Ginny and the other Weasleys and Remus and Hagrid, but they weren't a part of him like Ron and Hermione were.
Jeez I know too much about this series. I need to get out more lmao.

well,my fave is THE TWINCE Fred and George Weasley ... COMOON,THERS NO REASON YOU are NOT LOVING THEM. THEY BOTH SO FUN!!!! they always have a SILLY BRILIANT IDEA to do anything. they are rebellious and funny. We love to hear about their latest invention, trick, or rule breaking scheme. We laugh when they knock authority off of its feet.


This is why I believe we love them, or at least why I do. Beyond being funny or creative, Fred and George generally love their lives. Though they don't get high grades or work for the ministry, or do anything else society would claim is essential for a good life, they are happy. I think we all can look at Fred and George and say to ourselves, I wish I could do that or why can't more things make us smile? :) :) :)

i think fred and george are definitely the FUNNIEST, BEST part of the series. they are HILARIOUS!!!!!!! i was soooooo sad when fred died, i think i cried. i just couldnt turn the page i cant belive he died. i still cant believe he died because he and george were awesome and they were like 1 person so i feel bad for george he had 2 live with it

I love Harry Potter, and I have lot's of Favorite Characters, but personally, I really like Ginny Weasley.I like Ginny because she is exactly like me. I am independent, fierce, and just.Ginny is also Well-rounded, pretty, and kind.She is always willing to fight for whatever is right. I also like her because she is feminine without being too girly.Is it any wonder why she is my favorite?.

Wow, it's a tie between Bellatrix and Severus.
Bellatrix is just so freaking awesome, she's the anti-Bella Swan. She won't let anyone go by her unscathed. And then Severus, I don't know why I like him, I just do. My absolute favorite song is 'The Bravest Man I Ever Knew' by The Ministry of Magic so... I hope this is suitible. LLT out. Bye!

Well, I'll admit I only read the first book because I don't have any time to find the others, and I only saw some of the movies (if anyone knows where I can see them online, please tell me), but I already know that my favorite is Ron Weasley. He's hilarious, and I can relate with him on the mother-issues (his, from what I've seen, looks pretty controlling, so is mine :P).

UMM..i liked a lot of them! if i had to pick i think it wouldm have to be snape because he is mysterious and an interesting character! i cried when he died in dh! i have always liked him he's my fave character in the movie!

How can anyone chose lol?? I have a toss up between Ron and Hermione and they are my favourite couple as well but as seperate characters they are amazing.
Ron is loyal, funny, loving, brave (even though he is so scared but he follows harry and doesnt want to leave him) and he is also very insecure which makes him even more adorable as someone else said he is not perfect but he is Ron and he sticks by Harry through everything along with battling his own demons like being jealous of every guy that goes near Hermione but not willing to admit he loves her and jealous of Harry's popularity/fame but he is loyal and sticks by them no matter what but he can also be a prat but then he is a normal guy lol but he is the glue of the golden trio and he keeps them together
and then there is Hermione she is smart, talented, passionate, loving, loyal and brave as she sticks with harry and ron even though she didnt agree in the first few years lol "you could get us killed or worse expelled" classic line :) she stuck by them and if it wasnt for her logic and cleverness harry and ron wouldnt have gotten through it on times as she tried to keep them on the straight and narrow through the school years but as hard as she could they still got into troble :) but then she loves ron who puts her through hell through 6th year and bits of 4th and then when he left:( but then she slowly forgives him :)
but i seriously can not decide as these two a pair for me lol and i dont think you can have one sometimes without the other! For all their stubboness neither of them will move from my number one spot :)

Who: Neville.
Why: He's hot!
Just kidding.
The fact that he couldn't seem to do anything right for the majority of the series was just darling. I love how he has his moments where he shines and proves that he is a true Gryfindor. He ends up as a Hogwarts professor so he's kind of like an underdog that achieves greatness. He's just a nice character! Not to mention he got rid of Nagini even though he thought Harry was dead at that time. I also love how vengeful he is against Bellatrix. x) It's funnay.

Sirius Black

He'll do anything for the ones he loves. He was willing to risk his soul to protect Harry. He moved closer to Hogwarts during the Triwizard Tournament, closer to all the dementors. If they caught hi, he would have lost his soul. Time and time again, he risked everything for Harry. But Harry is not the only one he would do this for, he would do it for anyone he loves, Harry is just the only one we learn about, really.

Sirius is brave, he's loving, he's determined. He was in Azkaban for 12 years, but when he came out he was still ready to fight.

I'm going to say Albus Dumbledore is my favourite character. He is kind, caring and very funny. He is always positive. I also love the fact that he is extremley smart but doesn't boast about his intelligence, making him very humble.

I think how he didn't give Harry the full picture was inexcusable, but all characters need flaws and his flaws and realistic and believable. It makes him a 3D rounded character. If he didn't have flaws, it would make him a Gary-Stu like character, which is boring.

To me, Dumbledore was like the grandfather I never had but always wanted. Dumbledore ROCKS!!

Severus Snape.

Without him, there would have been no saga. Because of his love for Lily, he had dared ask Voldemort to spare her. The Dark Lord agreed, hence giving Lily the choice between dying or letting her son die. She made a choice, sacrificing herself. Which sacrifice triggered off the end of the Dark Lord and the survival of her son and the blood protection over him. All this because of Severus' love for her...

Which made him the 2nd most important character in the whole saga.

He's a very complex character. He's the embodiment that people can change, whatever the mistakes they may have made in their life. He's a figure of sacrifice and redemption, out of love, unrequited, unconditional love.

It takes a special brand of courage to love Severus but I do. I even love him because of his flaws and frailties, besides his qualities (brilliance, wit, bravery, devotion, loyalty, etc.) I write fanfiction focused on him because his emotions and feelings span most of the human emotions and feelings. He's a great character to play with and write about.

He lived like a Slytherin, worked like a Ravenclaw, loved like a Hufflepuff and died like a Gryffindor.

And needless to say, that Alan Rickman did a wonderful job with this character. He gave him flesh and blood (and, let's say it, a lot of sexiness too...) I hope he will get an Academy Award for his work as Severus Snape. He truly deserves it.

I like 2 Draco cuz he is hot AND he doesn't like Harry and I like snap cuz I like his voice

Nymphadore Lupin, who I will always call Tonks. I just love how she's playfull and fun but when the time comes she kicks butt! I also think she's funny.

The marauders (- Pettigrew) because I just love how close they were and how friends were always a priority, like how they became animagi, became secret keepers *cough*only Sirius*cough*, how Remus and Sirius all immediately tried to help Harry, Sirius giving Hagrid the motor bike, etc.

Ron. So spontaneous, so ginger, so funny...

Fred and George - These guys are responsible, along with the marauders, for me rolling on the floor laughing while reading an HP book. From their escape, to the pranks, to the Gred and Forge... I love them, so hilarious and fearless!

Molly Weasley - for killing Bellatricks (jk)

But I love them all! Sadly I think the lenght of answers run out after a few 100 sentances, so that's all.

*I know this isn't the best pic (her hair was better pink) but its all my computer will let me do
