The internet is so bad. I have just got home from by Bio exam and have got on the computer for quotes for my English exam. And I found this:

Go to it! It is awesome. It's an interview Jason Isaacs did and  it it awesome absoultely awesome.
Here a little snippet:

Q: Speaking of age gaps, were you surprised by how much your Harry Potter character took off? People love Lucius Malfoy.

A: People always love the bad guys. And Lucius is rather delicious. He delights in his power, and the audience delights in his delight. Also, when you've built someone up to be so unbelievably supercilious and arrogant, there's pleasure in seeing him humiliated and brought down a peg or two.

Q: Plus he's pretty.

A: I like to think so. When I have my costume on, I imagine myself to be this great supermodel beauty. And then I see this hideous old man in a wig.

Q: Oh, no, no, no. Just no. The campy villains you play -- the Captain Hooks and the Lucius Malfoys ...

A: They're half a step away from drag queens, let's face it.

Q: Not even a half-step. That's the beauty of it. They are drag queens.

A: They are! It's because I can't sing and I never got to play Frank-N-Furter in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," which is obviously my vocation. I know every syllable of "Rocky Horror." 

drag queens, should be studying! bad me!, jason isaacs
