What did you think of the Dursleys in Order of the Phoenix, all?
Movie spoilers!
I don't know about you folks, but I totally loved the way our Dursley friends were in the newest film.
Vernon was kooky and strange, in just the right way, in my opinion. I LOVED how they showed how important the neighbors are to the Dursleys-- covering Dudders with a towel and then bumping his head on the car door to me was a sad, but true representation of how normal they wish to be seen as.
Petunia-- oh my! All up in that little frock, where in canon is Petunia some sort of MILF? *grin* I mean, did anyone else cheer for her? I know me and my crew did!
And Dudley... wow. Harry Melling is even more my idol than before. The way he teased Harry was so careful, so solemn, nasty and completely methodical-- his delivery was exceptional to me. He added a whole new layer of interesting to Dudley, imo. And then Dudley's "candid" expressions were so fearful and confused. I loved it. I thought Dudley was more of a threat than movieverse Draco has ever been.
I'm even prouder to be a Dursley fan.
What did you lot think?
