13. Least favorite character(s)
I have to echo a bit of what themaidmarian said about sometimes not liking how women - excepting Hermione - are treated in the series in her answer to this question. But I also think that among my least favorites are Grawp, who just never made me feel much one way or the other, and Pettigrew, who I think committed some of the most loathsome disloyalty in canon. Other than that, I would say that I really enjoy - if not like - pretty much everyone else, if not because they are "nice" then because of the dramatic value they add to the story being told.
14. Moments in the books/movies that made you cry
I got goosebumps a *lot* reading all the Final Battle sequences, but I think that Harry's walk into the forest was truly the only thing that made me cry in the whole series. It was so moving on its own, *and* it was the culmination of everything we'd been heading to for so long. There was sobbing. Lots of it.
15. Whatever tickles your fancy
Heheh. I've been *waiting* for this slot. Herewith, please enjoy this clip from the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, in which a small, plump, bunny who likes to cuss explains why he wants to be a wizard. See it HERE.
