All-Time Coolest Heroes List


Entertainment Weekly published a list of 20 of the coolest heroes ever. Harry Potter is #4!
From the site (http://www.ew.com/):

"WHY HIM: Orphaned, cast out, and in the throes of adolescent hormonal revolt, J.K. Rowling's boy wizard (played by Daniel Radcliffe on screen) is the embodiment of the corny bumper sticker: Why be normal?
MOST HEROIC MOVE: Obliterating Voldemort by deploying his secret weapons: love, loyalty, and the good ol' Expelliarmus.
BIGGEST WEAKNESS: Misses his mommy and daddy."

Congratulations Harry! Number 4 out of 20. That's pretty good!
He was beaten by Superman (#3), Indiana Jones (#2), and James Bond (#1). Well I guess congrats to them too. Though Harry should have gotten first!

111 days until Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince comes out!

These last few weeks, David Copperfield has been showing on PBS. It was Daniel Radcliffe's first movie role. Maggie Smith (Professor McGonagall) and Imelda Staunton (Professor Umbridge) were also in it.
