Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - Harry and Dumbledore

Sad news! The actor who had a role as Dumbledore, Michael Gambon, passed away today at age eighty two. 😢

It's a shame that Sir Richard Harris passed away before completing all the movies. It was pitch perfect casting.

That’s my Dumbledore

Richard Harris was the best dumbledore RIP ❤

Michael Gambon truly did a good job with Dumbledore, but Richard Harris was always more realistic in every way. He is meticulously neat, while Gambol’s is more shabby and lopsided. He has a voice that suits a man who is over a hundred years old, and the ‘shrewd old man’ aura that Dumbledore was supposed to have. Besides, Harris played a gentle, grandfatherly Headmaster, while Gambon played a rough, serious one.
Over all, I personally would have preferred to see Richard Harris playing Dumbledore throughout the series.

RIP Richard Harris man he was the best dumbledore ever hands down. The closest version of the books to .

I like how instead of bluntly saying to Ron "Mr Weasly, if you wouldn't mind leaving i would like a word with Mr Potter in private" and making Ron feel excluded, he gives Ron an inportant task to grt Hagrid back.

Guy had a heart of gold.

Harris was better than Gambon if I'm being honest. Harris had that 'wise old man' feel that Dumbledore should have, and that he originally had in the books. Gambon you could argue was more suited to the later films that he played Dumbledore in because they were much more intense, with more intense action, and he was a bit more suited to that side of the character, but some aspects of his Dumbledore personality were not faithful to how Dumbledore is in the books, especially in Hogwarts scenes

Ah, Sir Richard Harris... You were a brilliant Dumbledore. Your old, raspy voice held a quality of some sort of ancient wisdom through your words as though your mere speech alone was a spell cast upon us all. If only you had lived for a few more films. RIP (Gambon was great too of course)

Harris's Dumbledore would have been far more effective for the reveal of a dark, flawed past with Grindelwald since he seemed so perfect and wise.

It always made me a little nervous how Harry grabbed the sword on the blade without any protection. Knowing that it absorbed venom from the basilisk in Deathly Hallows makes this scene more nerve wrecking.

Dumbledore’s speech to Harry sounds like what Yoda told Anakin.

Damn, Fawkes is one strong bird. Carrying a grown man, two 12-year-olds and an 11-year-old.

Sorry but that's Oilver Cromwell

Dumbledore enabled the hell outta these lil criminals😀

I like how, the moment he sees Godrics name inscribed on the blade, he realizes that he truly does belong in Gryffindor.

Miss your direction, Chris! ❤

I love this scene. Even though Dumbledores not being fully honest with Harry

Hogwarts legacy may take place long before this, but Dumbledore’s quote would still be relevant to our character’s story. We have a unique ability to manipulate powerful ancient magic which already makes us stand out from the other witches and wizards. We have the option to learn dark magic, not to mention the traits that ultimately put us in our houses. That said, it doesn’t automatically determine if we’re a heroic or dark wizard/witch. Harry had some of the same traits and abilities that Voldemort himself has (particularly parseltongue), but he didn’t use those for evil. Looking from that perspective, if we do choose to learn dark magic, it won’t make us evil just like that. Whether we’re good or evil will all come down to how and why we use said abilities further proving that Dumbledore was right: “it is not our abilities that show what we truly are. It is our choices”.

R.i.p Richard Harris he was the best Dumbledore not saying Michael Gambin wasn't good he was exceptional but you can't beat the original.

Michael Gambon did a good enough job as Dumbledore, but I really wish we could have seen Richard Harris for the 7 movies Dumbledore was in (he didn't really speak in DH Part 1)

So if a Slytherin wanted to save the world it would be tough luck because the sword only shows up for Gryffindors?

Lockhart: "Amazing!!!! This is just like magic!!!"
Ironic considering he's a wizard. He really has lost his memory.

I wonder what Harry and Ron's awards were. I don't think it was the cancelled exams because those were really for the entire school and not specifically for them.

This video has taught me something

Always loved the bond Harry and Dumbledore shared, it is like family.

If this was Gambon this is how I can imagine this scene: “YOU BOTH REALISE OF COURSE THAT IN THE PAST FEW HOURS YOU HAVE BROKEN PERHAPS A DOZEN SCHOOL RULES! AND THERE IS SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE TO HAVE YOU BOTH EXPELLED!”

Seriously I love Dumbledore, and this interaction between them both was so beautiful honestly❤️

“Voldemort transferred some of his powers to you … and made you a horcrux”
“A hor-what?”
“Uh, nevermind, you’ll find out when I’m ready for you to be slaughtered like a pig.”
“WHAT?”
“I said you’ll find out when you’re a seventh year”
Dumbledore looks around the room nervously

How do you accidently give someone your powers when you try to kill them?

I like this Dumbledore.

when I die and make it to... wherever it is that we go after death.. i secretly hope heaven looks quite similar to Dumbledore's Office :)

You both realize, of course that in the past few hours, you have the job I and my staff should have done months ago.

“Tell me Harry why did the sorting hat put you in Gryffindor?”
“Because I asked it to.”
“Exactly Harry, exactly, which makes you different from Voldemort. it is not our abilities that show who we really are, it is our choices.”
-Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter.

I love that saying, and it’s something that I took to heart, people can be good or bad but that’s not for others to say, it is not our appearances, or other peoples opinions of us that matters, or make us who we are, it is our choices.
