Perhaps like y'all who have read Deathly Hallows I will feel differently afterwards but.... ummm.... is there really any more character arc to Dumbledore AFTER he dies?

And I don't think Dumbledore was "energetic and volatile" in the first two books anyway. I just have zero emotional attachment to Gambon, yet I did have emotional attachment to the Dumbledore of the books and Harris' portrayal. I think Xharryb is dead-on in his analysis.
