Okay, so I don't know if anyone posted this earlier (I'm too lazy to check) but this past week I saw a clip from the movie on ELLEN (Ellen DeGeneres' show). I totally came upon it by accident, but I was in shock none the less. Ha ha ha. It was the scene in the tent just before the first task. All I have to say is that I am SO excited for this movie now...even though Karkaroff scares the crap out of me....So, just thought I'd share that with ya'll.

I really want to see it!! The only thing is that I miss the old dumbledore. He was so fine and good in playing the Schoolhead.I don't like the new Dumbledore. They better had chosen sir Ian McKellen or somewone else. so that's the only bad point.

^Yep I agree too!
In the clips, he doesn't act like the Dumbledore from the books.

I really really do not like how Dumbledore is in this movie...even though the one quote at the end of the book was very well said....

Yeah that's true.I read somewhere that the scene of the "Remember Cedric" speech was well done.Maybe is the script that doesn't help the character.

I was just listening to mugglecast and they were talking about what they thought of Michael Gambon.

Micah: Well, the one thing I really didn't like was the whole scene with Dumbledore basically shaking Harry to death after his name came out of the Goblet.

Eric: Okay, yeah. All right, what's up? Okay, Michael Gambon. Michael Gambon "?"

Micah: Yeah, I don't like him as Dumbledore.

Eric: That's what we're talking about because...

Andrew: Oh, come on.

Laura: I liked Gambon in Prisoner of Azkaban.

Eric: No.

Laura: I really, I sincerely liked him. I thought he did a wonderful job.

Andrew: Yep.

Laura: But, now that I am seeing... I'm a little... I'm not going to throw out a full-on judgement because I haven't seen the whole movie, but Dumbledore was very calm in the book when Harry's name came out of the cup. He didn't yell or anything. He just said, "Harry Potter!" And then he said, you know, "Go!"

Eric: In this one he backs him up into the big trophy and he goes [in loud voice] "Did you put your name in the Goblet?" Shaking him. Shaking him. And he's like, "No, sir. I swear I don't." And he says, "Swear to me! Swear to me you did not!"

[Laura laughs]

Andrew: This is the Dumbledore that I have been waiting for.

[Micah laughs]

Andrew: Come on.

Laura: Well, I think...

Eric:But, he's not that way to Harry. That's the thing with Dumbledore! He understands things and as Laura said he was calm. When things happen, when complete...

Andrew: He's too calm!

Eric: No. No.

Andrew: I mean, I'm sorry. I respect Richard Harris, okay?

Laura: I actually like Gambon better.

Andrew: I'm sorry that he passed on.

Eric: I'm not saying I like Richard Harris.

Andrew: Me too. Me too.

Eric: I'm not saying I like Richard Harris. I think Richard Harris was a little too calm, but Michael Gambon is more too violent I think because...

Andrew: He's a powerful Dumbledore. This is how Dumbledore is supposed to be.

Eric: But, he's powerful to the wrong people.

Andrew: I like the feisty Dumbledore because he's the Head of Hogwarts.

Eric: But, he's feisty...

Andrew: He should be angry. He should be yelling.

Eric: Not at Harry!

Laura: You know what I think they are doing though?

Eric: Not at Harry! He's feisty, but to the wrong people! You know? When Dumbledore has to take down the Ministry people, yes, he's feisty. That's the Michael Gambon Dumbledore I want to see, but not towards Harry.

Andrew: Good, so you'll see it in a future movie. Do you want to see Richard Harris doing the final battle? In Book...

Laura: Well, we won't.

[Micah laughs]

Andrew: Well, I mean, could you...

Eric: Do you want...

Andrew: Could... [Laughs]

Eric: But, do you want to see...

Andrew: Could you picture, could you picture Richard Harris doing...

Eric: Absolutely not! But, do you want Michael Gambon to sit there in Book 5 and say, "Harry, I was an idiot. I held off telling you everything."

Andrew: Yes, because he can do mood swings.

Eric: No, he can't do mood swings.

[Laura laughs]

Andrew: Richard Harris wasn't...

Eric: Everything is angry.

Andrew: ...he couldn't get mad.

Eric: Everything...

Andrew: I don't think he... You're...

Laura: What I think they are trying to do. I actually remember reading an interview with I believe Alfonso Cuaron, but don't quote me on that though that they were trying in Prisoner of Azkaban channel more of the anger that we saw in Order of the Phoenix from Harry. So, that there was a little bit of character development there. I think that might be what they are doing with Dumbledore as well.

Eric: But, I think Dumbledore...

Andrew: Developing the character?

Laura: Yeah.

Eric: But, when stuff goes down, Dumbledore is usually calm unless he has to fight off the bad people. I mean here he is shaking Harry and making him swear things. I think it is very important that we see this lighter side of Michael Gambon because when he does confess everything to Harry, it is going to seem like he's really yelling at him more. You know? And, really he blames himself and Dumbledore is a very self-blaming person, but I don't think...

Andrew: But, first we have to ask ourselves was this Mike Newell's decision to have him shake Harry? To do a little bit more yelling? Did Alfonso and Mike both take advantage of Michael Gambon being the new actor by making Dumbledore a little more feistier? Being a little bit more angry?

Eric: I like the idea that what Micah said was that they are adding more contrast to Harry by changing Dumbledore. And, I actually did like Richard Harris.

Andrew: Yeah, that works.

Laura: Mhm.

Eric: And Richard Harris in Prisoner of Azkaban...

Andrew: He means Michael Gambon.

Eric: ...I did like. I didn't think there was enough of him, but I did like the whole...

Andrew: Yeah.

Eric: With the Time Turner scene and him going, "Goodnight!" and just leaving them there.

Laura: Oh, that was perfect.

Eric: That was funny, but I do think he is a little too forceful. You know? A little bit, especially to the wrong people.

Andrew: You know, Eric? I don't agree with you.

[Micah and Laura laugh]

Eric: Okay. Fine! But, no. I think he's... He should be forceful, but not to Harry, not to the wrong people. You know? I mean Michael Gambon can kick serious butt. He really can and I want him to, but not Harry's. That's all I am saying.

Andrew: I said this before and I'll say it again. Warner Bros. does what they want to do to make the movie more interesting. They are not going to keep Michael Gambon being a Richard Harris.

Eric: By putting child abuse?

Andrew: They want to take advantage of this new actor by changing it up, by changing the character of Dumbledore. And yeah, I agree too that it does also affect Harry because you have this new actor who is putting a different perspective on it.

Atleast Richard Harris's Dumbledore was IN CHARACTER of Rowling's Dumbledore.


Michael Gambon's Dumbledore is just SCARY.

Yeah That's true Kitoky.I'll still like Richard's Dumbledore.

Yeah, I'm with Kit. Michael Gambon's Dumbledor is rather...extreme.

Kudos to Kitoky for the fabulous signature set, and art credit to engelszorn.
Who wants to join me in bringing back the lady?

I agree...no violent attacks by teachers, please. Richard Harris's personality was closer to my perception of Dumbledore.

I solemnly swear I will do my best to NOT watch any more GoF clips until the movie comes out

are you talking about the old Dumbledore who died? I liked him better than the new one.

I saw a flash of someone at the beginning of the third movie. he was short with black hair. was that Flitwick by any chance? he used to have white hair and I think he looked better with white
