Question:
Which actor plays the better Dumbledore?
Option 1: Richard Harris (1st & 2nd movie)
Option 2: Michael Gambon (3rd & beyond)
Which actor who played Dumbledore do you prefer?
Do you like Richard Harris who played Dumbledore in the first and second movie? Or do you like Michael Gambon who played Dumbledore in the third and beyond movies?
For me, I liked Richard Harris because he presents more of the gentle side of Dumbledore. And I have a feeling he could have shown the anger side of his character in the later movies if he hadn't died, God rest his soul.
Michael Gambon is a good actor and a considerably good replacement for Harris, but he just doesn't give off that gentle vibe Harris did.
ye you're right, the first one seemed perfect, a little old but a really wise and smart type of dumbledore. The other one seems more younger, his voice is a little weird but hes not bad i guess
harris will always be dumbledore to me...I mean, gambon's doing a decent job, but yeah, he's just not showing dumbledore's calm side enough.
but the old one wouldn't of done a good job in the 6th and 7th move, too much action lol
LOL....but I still liked Harris.....sad he had to die......
no offenseto Gambon or anything though
i like gambon and everything he's good but he's like too peppy and jumpy the first guy was completely and totally perfect he was calm and nice just as i imagined him when i read the book
PREPPY and the portale to preppiness! YEAH! PORTALE!

I disagree Ron.
On topic; I liked Harris alot better. I dunno...he's just more like what I imagined Dumbledor to be like. And he spoke slowere, something I've always thought of Dumbledore. Gambon speaks waaaay too fast for me.
thats alright. I don't hate cats. I just say stupid things like that.also; I'm allergic. on topic:I know what you mean.
aww! ur allergic to cats? That's sad... do you like cats? I do! They're cute and pretty and furry and.......... ;D

^^yah, i agree. I think the first guy is better. He's quieter and that's how JK Rowling described him in the book.
Zac Efron ROX! Im his biggest fan!
(like my avatar!!! its zac effron!!!)
Zac Efron? When did he come into the conversation? how did he come into the conversation?
because he is awesome! He is an awesome actor?
~Have you guys seen HSM or Hairspray?~
I personally like the first dumbledore. He looked so much warmer and nicer then the other one, although he did fit in the fifth movie.
I prefer Richard harris because he was a more like the Dumbledore in the books. And he had a great performance.
