Meme - Fun with Fandoms

[tari_roo]

I've spotted on this on a few folks on my flist and since all the cool kids are doing it: Meme picked up from kriadydragon, and schneefink :

Pick a fandom you think I'm familiar with (or see tags) and I'll tell you:

1. The first character I first fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer
6. The character I would totally smooch
7. The character I’d want to be like
8. The character I’d slap
9. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise

Ha, this should be interesting!

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t - Snape

4. The character I love that everyone else hates - The shrunked heads in POA :)

Heehee! I loved those shrunken heads! I thought they were hilarious! I used to despise Snape, but now I see him as such a deliciously conflicted character that I really like him - plus I think that Alan Rickman did a great job playing him.
I must have a thing for dark characters because the character I love that everybody hates... Bellatrix. She was just so horribly, unrepentedly evil, and a bit crazy, that she made a great antagonist. Plus I kind of liked her hair, very 'mad scientist' *g*

Well, Deathly hallows and HPB definitely shed some light on Snape, but the reason I still dislike him was his inability to move beyond his nature. Yes, his love for Lily made an impact in his life, but I don't think he really changed as a person. But that is my humble opinion only. :)

Alan did a great job - as always!

Bellatrix? Really?? *edges away cautiously* OK! :)

Heehee! Well, I wouldn't invite her over to dinner or anything, but she's a heck of a lot of fun to read and watch on the big screen. I'm not insane... really... *looks around shifty eyed* ;)

Bellatriy (and Helena Bonham Carter) are AWESOME! I really love her and she's one awesome villian! :)

Re: HP \o/

Ok, on this one we are going to have to agree to disagree :)

Helena did a fantastic job in the movie (and her hair was wicked) but I am going to admit that I cheered when Molly dueled her.

Re: HP \o/

[saphirablue]

Yeah, I cheered too but that's why I love Bellatrix! I love to hate her and that are the best villians in my opinion. :)

Re: HP \o/

I'll give you that - it is the combo of love hate that makes for a good villian.

Re: HP \o/

[saphirablue]

Oh yes. :) And if the villian is portrayed by an awesome actress/actor too... :)
