The one after the GoF spat out Harry's name.


I agree it was the only thing I've seen Gambon do that seemed totally out of character, as that character was written in the books.


Why not have JK Rowling do all the voices for an animated version drawn by her hand if everything must adhere to what she wrote?



There were many a LotR quibble that things weren't exactly as written by J.R.R. Tolkien. What a bunch of rubbish masquerading as criticism.


Either things suck or excel on their own merits or they don't. I happen to like most of the Harry Potter film changes, and I'm not happy with others.


I lean towards the not happy side on Gambon's outburst. Sigh, it seemed out of character to me.

Not anything remotedly approaching, say, Faramir out of character. So as a filmic outrage to the memory of Dumbledore, I'd put Gambon's departure from canon in the mildly annoying category. But he did not write that exchange, and he's not personally at fault for playing it as written.
