Top 25 Character Of Harry Potter Movies....(5 to 1)
Top 25 Character Of Harry Potter Movies....(5 to 1)
5.
Albus Dumbledore
5 For a character that was introduced into popular culture only in
recent years, it speaks volumes that Professor Dumbledore has already
taken his place among the great mentor figures in literature and film.
Like Gandalf and Yoda before him, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian
Dumbledore plays the role of wise sage, guide, and pseudo-grandfather in
the story. There's a whimsical eccentricity to Dumbledore that might mislead some into thinking he's a kind of absent-minded professor. That would be a mistake as he's proven to be one of the most skilled wizards that ever lived. In the films, we loved Richard Harris' more soft-spoken approach early on, but have to admit that Michael Gambon felt right at home showing Dumbledore at his most impressive – from taking on Voldemort in a one-on-one battle, to single-handedly thwarting off a horde of zombie-like inferi. His absence in Harry's life, since he was killed by Snape on the astronomy tower on a fateful and tragic night, has been powerful… even as Harry has begun to learn new, and potentially troubling, information about his mentor.
4.
Severus Snape
4 Whether you love him, or hate him, or love to hate him, Severus Snape makes quite an impact in the Harry Potter
series. If you're Harry, Snape is a nightmare of a teacher – picking on
the boy from the moment he stepped into Potions class, and showing
clear favoritism toward Draco Malfoy
and other Slytherin students. And yet… When Harry and his friends
thought Snape was the one trying to steal the Sorcerer's Stone, it
turned out he was trying to protect it, and every now and again, Snape
actually seemed like he was trying to help these kids. Snape turned into one of the most discussed and debated characters from Harry Potter. Is he an evil man with moments of good, or a good man who has some very ugly characteristics? Or something more complicated all together? When Snape killed Dumbledore, it was a defining moment for Harry, who couldn't fathom Dumbledore being betrayed by a man who his mentor had -- for whatever reason -- chosen to trust so much. We couldn't ask for a better actor than Alan Rickman to portray Snape, bringing the same charisma he's given to so many screen villains, from Die Hard on. And Snape is a villain after all... right?
3.
Ron Weasley
3 Ron Weasley
is Harry Potter's best friend and ever-present sidekick. But unlike
most sidekicks, Ron isn't a coward or a simpleton, nor is he content to
live in Harry's shadow. Of the three friends that make up the main cast
of characters, Ron is the comic relief -- not an uncommon trait for
sidekicks of his ilk -- a characteristic that makes him instantly
endearing. And while he lacks Harry's natural magical talent, or
Hermione's smarts, Ron overcomes his shortcomings with faithfulness and
perseverance. In spite of his fear of spiders, Ron follows Harry loyally into the Forbidden Forest, and mixes it up with the bad guys more than a few times in the series. He goes from bumbling Gryffindor keeper to Quidditch hero and works undercover at Hogwarts to co-found the vigilante student group Dumbledore's Army. Ron's flirtation/frustration with Hermione is also a highlight of the series. After all they'd been through, it was therefore difficult to see Ron abandon Harry and Hermione in Deathly Hallows Part 1 - but oh-so gratifying when he returned, facing some very personal, nightmarish visions (forget those spiders - he saw Harry and Hermione naked and getting it on!) and conquering them with the bravery of a true Gryffindor.
2.
Hermione Granger
2 Hermione Granger,
Harry Potter and Ron Weasley's best girl-pal, is so much more than just
a token throw-in for female readers/viewers to identify with. In fact,
she narrowly edges out Ron for second place on our list. Why? We're glad
you asked... Potter author J.K. Rowling describes her as "very logical,
upright, and good." And while she's at first painted as a brainy
do-gooder who always plays by the rules, it's fun to watch Hermione
develop into so much more over the course of the series. Throughout the novels and films, Hermione remains the voice of reason, but she'll break the law without hesitation if it's for the greater good. And her Spock-like logic is no help at all when hormones come into play -- completely fracturing, in fact, when it comes to her playfully love-hate relationship with Ron. You'll find no better friend or magical ally than "the brightest witch of her age."
1.
Harry Potter
1 Perhaps it's a given that Harry Potter himself tops our list, but
it's important to still reflect on why the character has been so
universally accepted. He's a sympathetic figure; a kid plucked from
unfortunate circumstances and thrust into a magical reality. He realizes
he has been gifted with great power. And then he's pitted against the
ultimate evil in the wizarding world, Lord Voldemort,
who years ago killed his mother and father . Everybody loves an
underdog story of good vs. evil and we've watched Harry grow up in this
fantastic setting -- forming friendships, fighting foes, and finding
love. While Harry only partially realizes his deepest desire, to see his dead parents again, he is fathered and mothered by the care-taking adults who surround him -- Albus Dumbledore, Hagrid, Molly and Arthur Weasley, and Sirius Black to name a few. His faithful friends Ron and Hermione are an extension of this ad hoc family -- as close as any real brother and sister. And Harry has needed all the support he can get in his battle against those who would do him harm -- from school bully Draco Malfoy, to soul sucking Dementors, the terrible Death Eaters, and ultimately the Dark Lord himself.
J.K. Rowling was careful to not make Harry perfect. His temper has gotten the better of him and he's made some crucial mistakes along the way, ignoring his friends in the process. But Harry's defects only help to endear us to him, as he feels so very real and part of both our world and the magical one he spent the first ten years of his life ignorant of. The weight of the world is upon his shoulders, as he's said to be "The Chosen One," on top of processing being famous simply because he didn't die when someone tried to kill him – the same someone who killed his parents. That's a lot to deal with, but Harry Potter somehow is able to stand strong, even when faced with tremendous loss and being asked to make terrible sacrifices of his own.

Top 25 Character Of Harry Potter Movies (10 to 6)
Top 25 Character Of Harry Potter Movies (10 to 6)
10.
Bellatrix Lestrange
10 Some people just enjoy being evil. If you're looking for proof, let us introduce you to Bellatrix Lestrange – and suggest you pray that you survive the encounter. Bellatrix has little of the cold, calculating nature of Voldemort or Lucius Malfoy.
She simply relishes doing wicked, wicked things – and laughing all the
while. Her villainy would have been cemented simply by her backstory, as
we discovered she had tortured poor Neville Longbottom's parents so horrifically, it left them insane. But after she escaped from Azkaban, Bellatrix proved she was far from done. She murdered her own cousin, Sirius Black, and, per usual, seemed more entertained than anything by what she'd done – which left Harry Potter without someone he'd come to love like a family member. She then went on to sadistically torture Hermione and murdered Dobby, giving this woman a stunning list of horrific "accomplishments." Considering all the destruction she's responsible for, the question becomes: Who can put a stop to this fanatical Voldemort follower, and the wreckage she leaves in her wake?
9.
Draco Malfoy
9 As we follow Harry Potter's path of righteous adventure during his
years at Hogwarts, it only makes sense that we follow his cracked mirror
reflection. As someone that grew up totally opposite to Harry, the
Aryan, aristocratic puke known as Draco Malfoy
was privileged, pompous and prejudiced. While the threat of
Voldemort's return loomed outside the walls of Hogwarts, Harry needed a
lesser evil to keep him occupied when school was in session. And Draco
did his absolute best to make Harry's life as harried and horrible as
possible. But just when we were beginning to think that Draco was nothing more than a nuisance, he got charged, by the Dark Lord, with killing Dumbledore himself. And suddenly, we were witnesses to Draco's initiation into the ranks of true evil and found ourselves actually invested in his choices - particularly when we saw, as Dumbledore did, that Draco Malfoy, as nasty as he is, is not a murderer. Still among the Death Eaters, Draco's next steps could lead him to salvation or damnation.
8.
Sirius Black
8 "Have you seen this wizard?" "Approach with extreme caution!" "Notify
immediately by owl the Ministry of Magic." So read the wanted posters
plastered everywhere in the wizarding world upon Sirius Black's escape from Azkaban prison, where he'd been sent years earlier for the murder of twelve Muggles and aiding Lord Voldemort. But Sirius is an innocent man. And it's after he is vindicated that the character truly comes alive. Sirius was a close friend of James and Lily Potter, so much so that they named him as Harry's godfather. And while he maintains a sort of edgy, rebellious appeal -- emitting a truly badass vibe at times -- it's the father/son relationship that begins to develop between Sirius and Harry that endears the character to us. Sadly, however, Sirius meets his untimely demise before he can truly become the full-fledged father-figure that Harry so craves.
7.
Voldemort
7 The greatest thing about Lord Voldemort (AKA Tom Marvolo Riddle) was
that he was rotten to his very core. There would be no redemption for
such a wicked spirit. There was never any "good" lying dormant
underneath Voldemort's dark exterior. He was never corrupted as a
child; he was the corrupter. When other powerful sorcerers
don't even have the cajones to speak your name, then you know you've
truly arrived as the ultimate master of malice. As the most sinisterly popularized villain since Darth Vader, Voldemort was truly frightening. In book after book, Harry managed to evade certain death only by the skinny skin of his teeth. We literally could not figure out a way that Harry, as cunning as he was, could ever defeat such a powerfully evil force. Voldemort might not have been able to comprehend love or friendship, but that certainly didn't stop us from taking delight in such a devilishly dreadful dude - and to wonder how Harry might possibly survive their final encounter.
6.
Neville Longbottom
6 Neville Longbottom is the quintessential dimwit-turned-hero. When we
first meet him at Hogwarts, Neville is a shy introvert who is simply not
that good at magic. In fact, those close to Neville quietly wondered if
he might nearly be a Squib, someone born into a wizarding family
without magic powers. He's lovable, sure, but his early misadventures
don't explicitly foreshadow the valiant defender of Hogwarts that he
would ultimately become. While he begins to show loyalty and signs of bravery early on, it isn't until Neville's fifth year and his participation in Dumbledore's Army, that we see him truly come into his own. Neville accompanies his friends on their mission to the Department of Mysteries where he comes face to face with the Bellatrix Lestrange, the twisted servant of Voldemort who cruelly tortured his parents years before using the Cruciatus Curse. But as impressive as Neville's transformation has been, his greatest challenges are yet to come...

TOP 25 character in Harry Potter Movies- PART-1(25-21)
TOP 25 character in Harry Potter Movies- PART-1(25-21)
25.
25Most of the wizards we see in Harry Potter are either experienced adults – often professors of course – or the underage students who are the focus of the series. This helps make Tonks a refreshing change of pace, as she represents a young adult wizard – someone who's completed all of her training, but still has the brash, energetic attitude of youth.
A Metamorphmagus, Tonks can change her appearance, and uses that ability to constantly change her hair color into dramatic colors, including everything from pink to purple. In the books, she's known to wear jeans and band t-shirts, and brings a fun, punkish attitude to the Harry Potter universe – while also functioning as a loyal, brave member of the Order of the Phoenix, who's quick to take up the fight against Voldemort and his Death Eaters. The story of how she and the older Remus Lupin came to be together unfortunately was mostly left off screen in the films, but Deathly Hallows Part 2 should serve to provide the couple with their greatest challenge.
Dobby's role in the film series is far smaller than in the books, where he made frequent appearances in-between Chamber of Secrets and Deathly Hallows. In the books, we saw more of how kind-hearted and loyal Dobby was, particularly towards Harry Potter, to whom he was indebted for his freedom. But even those who only knew Dobby from The Chamber of Secrets film were probably affected by his sacrifice in The Deathly Hallows Part 1, where he proved crucial in freeing Harry and his friends from a horrific scenario, only to fall victim to Bellatrix Lestrange in the process. The fact that Dobby, in his dying moments, clearly had no regrets about literally giving his all for his friend Harry resulted in one of the most touching moments in the series.
She's a seer known for making vague predictions that sometimes come true. And much like many real-life psychics, there's plenty of skepticism surrounding Trelawney's abilities -- particularly from Hermoine Granger. But Trelawney's the one who prophesied about the Chosen One: "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not..." It's Harry Potter, of course, who ultimately becomes the subject of the prophesy. And it's Trelawney's mysterious power, coupled with her bizarre behavior, that make the character fascinating and fun.
As yet to be seen on screen, Ginny becomes a true leader of rebel forces like no other. She's a strong, determined and alluring young woman who always there to fight the forces of evil as a member of Dumbledore's Army. Ginny is the quintessential "girl who got her guy" – and we wouldn't have it any other way.
The vain and self-aggrandizing Lockhart's habit of exaggerating his own deeds would backfire when he was hired as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He would at first relish the position as yet another avenue of self-promotion, but his buffoonery and incompetence soon get the best of Lockhart. His false claims are revealed by Harry Potter and his friends after Lockhart cowardly attempted to flee the school upon being ordered to confront the monster in the Chamber of Secrets.

24 "Such a beautiful place... to be with friends." It's difficult to not get a bit misty-eyed recalling the moment when Dobby
the house-elf said those words in Deathly Hallows Part 1, which were
among his last. When we met Dobby, admittedly, he was pretty annoying.
He was a strange, little creature with a habit of hurting himself, who
made things very difficult for Harry Potter as he began his second year
at Hogwarts. But Dobby's intentions were always noble, and his
determination to help Harry, despite the short term consequences, was
commendable. Dobby's role in the film series is far smaller than in the books, where he made frequent appearances in-between Chamber of Secrets and Deathly Hallows. In the books, we saw more of how kind-hearted and loyal Dobby was, particularly towards Harry Potter, to whom he was indebted for his freedom.

The fact that Dobby, in his dying moments, clearly had no regrets about literally giving his all for his friend Harry resulted in one of the most touching moments in the series.
23.
23 Sybill Trelawney
is the professor of Divination at Hogwarts. And to say she's an odd
bird is a bit of an understatement. Her thick glasses and gaudy dress
make for a strange appearance, and Trelawney's habit of speaking in a
hushed, ethereal tone don't help matters. She's a seer known for making vague predictions that sometimes come true. And much like many real-life psychics, there's plenty of skepticism surrounding Trelawney's abilities -- particularly from Hermoine Granger. But Trelawney's the one who prophesied about the Chosen One: "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not..." It's Harry Potter, of course, who ultimately becomes the subject of the prophesy. And it's Trelawney's mysterious power, coupled with her bizarre behavior, that make the character fascinating and fun.
22.
22 On hand in Chamber of Secrets as a lovesick little girl/vessel for Tom Riddle's madness (following her cameo in The Sorcerer's Stone), Ginny and Harry's eventual romance captivated us. It seemed to both spring up out of nowhere and
feel like it was meant to be all along. It was only natural that Harry
should wind up finding love in the same family where he found…well,
family. It was refreshing to finally see someone in Hogwarts see Harry
as the proud and pensive catch that he was. As yet to be seen on screen, Ginny becomes a true leader of rebel forces like no other. She's a strong, determined and alluring young woman who always there to fight the forces of evil as a member of Dumbledore's Army. Ginny is the quintessential "girl who got her guy" – and we wouldn't have it any other way.
21.
21 Gilderoy Lockhart
is a real charmer. It's through sheer charisma (and the occasional
memory charm) that he established himself in society as one of the most
accomplished wizards of all time, without actually performing any of the
heroic acts he claims to have done in numerous best-selling books. The vain and self-aggrandizing Lockhart's habit of exaggerating his own deeds would backfire when he was hired as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He would at first relish the position as yet another avenue of self-promotion, but his buffoonery and incompetence soon get the best of Lockhart. His false claims are revealed by Harry Potter and his friends after Lockhart cowardly attempted to flee the school upon being ordered to confront the monster in the Chamber of Secrets.

The fifteen best picture of emma watson
I wasn’t going to do another one of these so soon, but I felt I had to jump on the Hogwarts Express before it fully left the station. One of the coolest things about the series was watching the young actors grow up before our eyes. They were all just kids when it started, but now they’re big and tall, and quite good looking.
Obviously one that’s caught our eye more than most has been Miss Hermoine Granger. She started off as a frizzy haired know-it-all, but grew up and the actress who plays her, Emma Watson, is now 21 and gorgeous. She’s classically beautiful in a way you don’t see often in Hollywood anymore, and I thought she was a prime candidate for our feature which has spotlighted the likes of Mila Kunis, Christina Hendricks and Olivia Wilde before. She has a far different look than any of them, but is still absolutely stunning in her own right.
So I’ve done the exceptionally taxing job of hunting through the internet to find the absolute best pictures of Emma Watson in existence. I’m happy with my finds, and hopefully you will be as well. Check out the gallery below:
