I'm not a huge Dobby fan either. *spoilers from end of book* StormCrow Send a noteboard - 20/07/2010 03:18:27 PM
About as much as I hate JarJar Binks.

Such an annoying character.

Suspect I am one of the few to dislike him, though. ;)


I give him a little more credit than JarJar. Honestly, the self punishment thing is a bit much. I do enjoy his final scene, where he blasts Lucious Malfoy away from Harry though.

Watched the movie recently and Lucious actually says "avada..." before he gets blasted by Dobby. Mistake maybe? Who would kill Harry, right outside of Dumbledore's office at this stage in the game?

I can't remember how much I hated him the first read Deadsy - 21/07/2010 03:44:15 AM 1729 Views
You're right. It's not as bad the second (or third) time around with him. StormCrow - 21/07/2010 01:54:01 PM 1542 Views

Thoughts on the movie quality Deadsy - 21/07/2010 04:15:20 AM 1356 Views
