I think I've been in the fandom far too long and I don't even remember what my Harry, Ron, and Hermione looked like before the movies came out. XD Now, Dan, Emma, and Rupert are the trio and I can't change that in my mind, no matter how many descriptions I read. The same thing is happening with Evanna/Luna, and that movie hasn't even come out yet!

Rissa//Ravenclaw

Oh, my Luna is totally Evanna too!

But my trio is very different from movie trio, but sometimes if I've just watched one of the movies then read fic, I'll see the movie characters.

They'll go away eventually and "my" characters will come back. XD

No one is ever what I pictured in my mind. Especially Dobby, my Dobby is so cute unlike that lanky thin monstrous thing posing in the movies.

Dee//Hufflepuff

Ha, my younger cousin was scared of Dobby in the 2nd movie, and she refuses to see any more of them with me now. XD

My Dobby is really cute too, he's a lot like the US chapter picture of him.

My Harry looks relatively close to Dan Rad...but I think that it's just because Dan Rad makes a good canon!Harry [disregarding the gaping EYE COLOR problem]. Hermione and Ron look nothing like their movie counterparts, though. Especially Ron! I adore Rupert's portrayal of Ron, but he just doesn't look like him. He's not tall and lanky, he doesn't have a long nose, and he's got no freckles! I can't exactly pin-point what's different about the Hermione in my head. Lookwise, Emma Watson makes a fair Hermione, I s'pose, but my!Hermione just looks somewhat different- probably because I envisioned her first.

Jenna::Ravenclaw

Harry-in-my-head is different.

Ron in the movie is DEAD ON to how I picture Ron. I mean, I saw the first movie FIRST, but that doesn't usually taint my mental images. But...Rupert Grint is just SO perfect.


Jake//Slytherin

I think, at first, none of them came out how I wanted, but they've grown on me so much. I sort of wish Emma would have the hair she did in Sorcerer's Stone, though.

Trinh/Ravenclaw

Movie!Harry: I imagine him looking a bit like Dan Rad, but with better hair, green eyes and fuller lips.

Movie!Ron: Even though Rupert doesn't really look like Ron as he is described in the book, he's played him so well that I can see him as I read.

Movie!Hermione: *facepalm* From the first time I read the book, I always saw myself as Hermione. I hate the way they casted her and would be happy with pretty much anyone who actually looked the part and didn't act with their eyebrows.

A bit, because I saw the movies before I started reading the books, but now my mental images are different from the actors. I don't even know. They change but they're still the same but they don't look like the actors but sometimes resemble them haha. No idea. But the actors in the first two movies pretty much look like the characters in my head in the first two books.


Fangy//Gryffindor

Harry looks in no way like Dan. Emma neither, she's too pretty to be Hermione. Ron is a bit like Rupert, but only taller, more gangly and more freckles.

I have to say MacGonagall was a superb pick, as well as Dumbleydorr, Neville, Hagrid and Draco. Mmmmmm. I'm not quite displeased about Cedric and Cho, Molly and Arthur, Professor Sprout, the sorting hat, Lucius either. That's it, though. Snape must have a crooked nose! But he plays well. Viktor Krum is not how I imagined him to be, etc.,

I pick and choose!
Mia/Claw

I think the movie Harry looks like my dipiction of Harry.
BUt Hermione in the books I think is descriped as being homely looking and plain and kind of ugly with frizzy hair. I definitly pictured her being reather unpleasant to look at, which was why at the Ball everyone made a big deal as to her looking gorgeous. But in the movie, she looks liek she always does.

Pxyjuice//hufflepuff

I have a totally different image of Harry in my head. Nothing like Daniel Radcliffe (basically because I think he doesn't fit the character at all). My Harry has GREEN eyes and longer, messy hair, he's skinner, with fuller lips.

Giulia//Slytherin

Well most of them look how I imagined them. Of course Hermione's hair is.... well not really that.
Evanna however is spot on how I imagined Luna to be. Love how they cast Luna =)

Karen // Hufflepuff

Well, here's an early Harry (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/8034367/?qo=51&q=by%3Ainlovewithaline&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps) for you. This one I drew after reading Harry Potter à l'école des sorciers.

This Harry and Co. (http://pics.livejournal.com/ladykuroda/pic/0001p1r7/g14) I drew after finishing HBP. (Hopefully that link works. If not, check out my ScrapBook through my userinfo!)

There you have it!

ladykuroda//ravenclaw

Wow, those are really good!

I really like your early Harry. =]

Taylor/Gryffindor

Thank you! :D I really enjoyed drawing him.

the actors have all grown on me. I can't really picture much else, now. :x

although i adore luna, evanna looks so much the part, its awesome. so many fans love her even though we've never seen her act! :)
