Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP

I decided that Malfoy had the most impact during the series while Neville became more of a phenomenon after it was over. Not that that couldn't have made him the Sheepiest answer, of course. I also recently saw him in Me Before You as Emilia Clarke's boyfriend.

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP

On the director question, I honestly couldn't remember Yates' name, but might've gone with Cuaron anyway. The Columbus movies are my least favorite so I didn't want to go with him, though I do give him credit for great casting and getting things started.

Two Sheepiest answers + two missed slam opportunities = middle of the pack. I'll take it, but I hope I made good use out of my later slams.

Yeah, I'm hoping I'm not going to regret when I ended up putting my slams as well.

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP

3. A movie about magic isn’t complete without some spell casting. Tell us the name of one spell used in the series.

This question came down to four answers, with three of them tying for second place and one being sheepy.

This answer floated away with four votes:
Spoiler:


Kal-El Wingardium Leviosa -4
davidh777 Wingardium Leviosa -4
Abob Teff Wingardium Leviosa -4
ivelostr2 Wingardium Leviosa -4

This answer was simply disarming:
Spoiler:


wishbone Expelliarmus -4
mwbmis Expelliarmus -4
Super X Expelliarmus -4
orangecrush Expelliarmus -4

This answer killed. Sorta.
Spoiler:


Tommyp007 Avada Kedavra {sd} -8
bunkaroo Avada Kedavra -4
DaveNinja Avada Kedavra -4
Obi-Wan Jebroni Avada Kedavra -4

And now, the sheepiest answer. Bet you didn't expect(o) this one:
Spoiler:


majorjoe 23 Expecto Patronum {sd} -14
TheAllPurposeNothing Expecto Patronum {sd} -14
cnicholls44 Expecto Patronum {sd} -14
Count Dooku Expecto Patronum -7
Shannon Nutt Expecto Patronum -7
Cellar Door Expecto Patronum -7
decker Expecto Patronum -7

Cuaron to me is the only answer on that as he set the tone for the rest of the series. I like Columbus' films both the series got more mature after Cuaron.

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP

Surprised on Expecto Patronum. Maybe that was easier to spell than the killing curse?

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP

I thought this next question would be a tough one for players to match on, and I was right. Still, some excellent answers (even from those who didn't get a match) with one fairly sheepy (yet surprising) answer.

4. The Harry Potter series became a virtual who’s-who of British actors and actresses. Name a famous British actor or actress that, surprisingly, did not appear in the series.

First, the non-matchers:
Spoiler:


Shannon Nutt Sean Connery 0

Spoiler:


bunkaroo Helen Mirren 0

Spoiler:


Kal-El Hugh Laurie 0

Spoiler:


Cellar Door Patrick Stewart 0

Spoiler:


Super X Anthony Hopkins 0

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP

Finally, some consensus:

Spoiler:


Tommyp007 Hugh Grant -2
TheAllPurposeNothing Hugh Grant -2

Spoiler:



davidh777 Judi Dench -3
Abob Teff Judi Dench -3
ivelostr2 Judi Dench -3

And now, for the one I thought would be sheepiest, simply because people actually talked a lot about him possibly joining the cast...
Spoiler:


DaveNinja Ian McKellen -4
orangecrush Ian McKellen -4
majorjoe 23 Ian McKellan -4
mwbmis Ian McKellan -4

But the sheepiest answer of all was:
Spoiler:


Count Dooku Michael Caine -5
cnicholls44 Michael Caine -5
wishbone Michael Caine -5
Obi-Wan Jebroni Michael Caine -5
decker Michael Caine -5

After Dench popped into my head, I was relieved to have an answer and stopped trying to think of people.

I bounced between patronum and expelliarmus.

Well, Harry did kill Voldemort with expelliarmus. It was his signature spell.

How simple-minded of me to think that the guy who directed half the series has the biggest impact on it.
