If anything, blame Rawling for including one good character of color throughout seven books. Besides, as metroid pointed out, I'm assuming not many people here know which minor characters are which race. Lee Jordan and Kingsley Shacklebolt are both good. I uh... I had no idea Dean Thomas was black until I checked the wikia. Was his ethnicity even mentioned in the books because I'm drawing a blank? Angie and Blaise are background characters like any other, and like any other background characters they aren't going to be very strong. Glad to see Kingsley slaying his match. Mundungus is an awful character. Like I said, he needs other people yelling at him (Molly, Sirius, Kreacher, Aberforth, Moody, etc.) to provide even the slightest bit of entertainment. On his own, he's not very interesting at all. Just a droopy-faced thief. -- I've come to the realization that I need a sig. <cite>GenesisSaga posted [p:544168] in Best Harry...

Was his ethnicity even mentioned in the books because I'm drawing a blank? Angie and Blaise are background characters like any other, and like any other background characters they aren't going to be very strong. From the wiki: Dean's physical appearance was only described in the American edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. J.K. Rowling explained on her website that the reason this description was left out of the British edition of Philosopher's Stone was that her editor "thought that chapter was too long and pruned everything that he thought was surplus to requirements." So...if you read any version but the american version, you have a good excuse. Not that a one sentence and never mentioned again description of having dark hair and dark skin would necessarily have clued me in anyway (see: me and having no idea Blaise Zabini was black). Mundungus is an awful character. Like I said, he needs other people yelling at him (Molly, Sirius, Kreacher, Aberforth, Moody, etc.) to provide even the slightest bit of entertainment. On his own, he's not very interesting at all. Just a droopy-faced thief. It's Harry Potter; lots of characters are just an archetype. -- Cats land on their feet. Toast lands peanut butter side down.

I'm thinking of having a second chance mini-tourney of 8-16 after the main tourney and Crouch would definitely be in it. (8)Quirinus Quirrell- 15 (9)Rufus Scrimgeour-11 There are more than a few days that 11 votes would have been enough for a win. With the votals of today, there was no chance. (5)Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody-21 (12)Lavender Brown-6 Brown is underrated as a character because she isn't likable. She fills the annoying girlfriend role very well. I don't like how they changed her actor (she was originally black but they changed it to a white actress for the 6th book). (4)Fenrir Greyback-24 (13)Pansy Parkinson -3 And yeah. Does anyone not take Crouch over Greyback? Good day of action! Awesome votals and some decent matches.

Actually Dean overperformed for such a low seeded character. And like MC pointed out, his exploits, though numerous and far surpassing those of Wood, are ultimately pretty forgettable. The "trend" is broken. (3)Kingsley Shacklebolt-21 (14)Mundungus Fletcher -5 How the hell does Kingsley let Mundungus get 5 votes? Racistfaqs I see now you're just being silly. Kingsley stomped that match just like he should've. Though I feel Dungy is an unentertaining and unlikable character, 5/26 votes is significantly less than most characters of similar screentime have gotten. In fact I'm pretty sure Mundungus got about x1.5 more scenes than Kingsley ever did, it's just most of them were spent whining and being a sniveling coward. It's no surprise so few were willing to vote for that. The "trend" was probably a coincidence. -- I've come to the realization that I need a sig. <cite>GenesisSaga posted [p:544172] in Best Harry...

metroid composite 01/06/12 6:15:00 PM #107:	*GaryOak151 posted...* The trend continues! Thomas should have won imho. Objectively I agree, and I voted for him, but so many of us were commenting on how subjectively unmemorable Thomas was relative to his screen time and especially surprising given the variety of scenes he's in. He's like...the "Where's Waldo" of personalities--there are big scenes where I didn't even remember he was present until reminded by others. How the hell does Kingsley let Mundungus get 5 votes? Racistfaqs Damnit, there are perfectly legitimate reasons to like Dung, and...actually I suspect he gets more screen time by a fair margin. (2)Buckbeak-24 (15)Bathilda Bagshot-2 blowoutfaqs This being the biggest blowout is a bit of a surprise to me. Is Buckbeak actually popular on this board? Before these matches I would expect Trelawney to take down Buckbeak, but now I'm not sure. -- Cats land on their feet. Toast lands peanut butter side down.

Kaxon 01/06/12 6:23:00 PM #108:	Unless I'm forgetting something, the real Bathilda never appears on screen at all. Of course she got blown out. Besides, Buckbeak is just that awesome. And since everyone keeps saying they didn't know Blaise was black, remember when nobody knew what his gender was? When he was first mentioned, all we knew was that there was a Slytherin named Blaise Zabini, but that didn't stop people from writing fanfics where he was Draco's girlfriend. (or Harry's, or Filch's, or Buckbeak's.... HP fanfic shippers are scary) -- I made a living on time trial blowing myself off to cross the finish line at ludicrous speed. -transience <cite>Kaxon posted [p:544174] in Best Harry...

Can't speak for the others here, but I'd vote Irish Seamus Finnigan or... pretty much any black character over Ron, but not Cho. Then again I'd have a hard time voting either of the two French characters over Ron as well. Then there's Grindelwald. I'd vote him over Ron. Wasn't Ollivander foreign? I'd definitely vote him over Ron. Then there's that random Romanian vampire guest accompanying the Twisted Sisters or whatever that band was called (I know it's not Twisted Sisters but I'm at a mental loss here)... Okay, I wouldn't vote him over Ron, but I'd think about it! Bah, what a typo. I'm more tired than I thought. But for real. Cho's far from decent. -- Arcanine: The best pokemon ever.
