    Lupin, Sirius, Luna, Tonks, Neville, Newt Scamander, and Jacob are probably my top favorites, but I still like several others

    Umbridge for sure. Yes Voldemort and the Death Eaters were horrible people, but at least they were cool villains. I wanted Umbridge dead so bad, and was pissed when she wasn't killed off. It didn't even help that she came back AGAIN in Cursed Child. It just made me hate her more.

    Most hated: Umbridge, but Peter Pettigrew came close- as unlike Umbridge he is directly responsible for the death of Lily and James. :triumph:

    Favorite- Snape. He was in the worst possible position when he had to kill Dumbledore.

    Hate - like everyone else Umbridge. I was so happy to see the centaurs take her away, but was pissed when I saw they didn't kill her.

    Favorite character in the Books? Tonks.
    Favorite character in the movies? Lupin and Sirius are tied.

    Most villainous, I think, has to be Lucius Malfoy. Umbridge was a piece of work, no doubt. But Lucius did everything he could to keep his status as a pureblood wizard above anybody not 100% pure. Even if it meant doing everything Voldemort asked him to, even if he knew it was wrong, and it could be from making the unbreakable vow, to enslaving house elves. He taught Draco all this, who turned out much differently by the end. It's really sick when you think about it. Narcissa is a close second to this, I think.

    I don't think Narcissa was all that bad she loved her son enough to ask Harry was he alive and she didn't tell Voldemort that Harry wasn't dead. Tonks and Dobby were two of favorite characters I think the actress that plated Tonks in the movies played her perfectly I cried when I read the last book and all those people died. Why does nobody think Voldemort is the worst character. There were a lot of bad guys that I hated, Barty Crouch Jr and the dementors included. The cursed child was stupid I hated the story and the whole time reading it I kept thinking how are they going to do that on stage. I just wished I knew if Harry actually became an auror.

    I just watched the movies again last summer and I re-realized that Umbridge is THE WORST. Most villainous for sure.

    Favorite - Remus Lupin. No question.

    Although I haven't seen the new HP movie. Haven't had the chance and afraid I'm not gonna like it lol.

    It'd be hard to pick an outright favourite, possibly Dobby. After reading Prisoner of Azkaban, Sirius was my favourite character. He stayed my favourite character up until Order of the Phoenix was published. I cried a lot. After that Lupin and Tonks were favourites, and in Deathly Hallows, Snape and Neville.

    Most villainous? Umbridge, as has been said, or possibly Bellatrix.

    Luna is my favorite! She was always so nice! She even called Dobby "sir" without thinking twice!

    And the most villainous?
    Well, I think Voldemort should be locked up for life,
    but Umbridge?
    She NEEDS to die

    My most liked character is Hermione being that she has no blood ties to magic and how you would never know that if she never told you.

    My most hated character would have to be any form of Voldemort or any of the Death Eaters.

    Wow, awesome to see there's such a range. Well, with the exception of Umbridge being a popular choice. I think I stand by my choice of Peter Pettigrew though, he betrayed the people who trusted him, who had been his friends since they were children, and mercilessly sent his other closest friend to Askaban, and showed no remorse except when he thought it would save his own weasley life. I feel even by Voldemort's standard that's disgustingly low

    Hmmm, favourite Harry Potter character is too hard!
    Probably Remus and Sirius, but Luna and Neville are close behind!
    I'm with the rest of the world in thinking that Umbridge is by far the evilest character. I would love to know what her background is like because, with Voldy, we get some pretty sound psychological reasoning for why he turned out a sociopath, but I don't understand what could possibly motivate Umbridge to be such a b*tch.

    Edit: Percy's also pretty great cause we have the same name. I feel like he's pretty misunderstood and I find Rowling's treatment of him to be kind of unfair and one-sided.

    Luna is my favorite because she is so unique and quirky. I also love Sirius soooo much.

    And I completely agree with you, UMBRIDGE SUCKS! Order of the Pheonix is probably my least favorite book, purely because of how horrible Umbridge is. J.K. Rowling did such an amazing job at creating a wholly evil and unlikable character, she makes the book hard to read without wanting to strangle that ugly pink sh*t.

    Favorite Character is Luna. She tells it like it is and doesn't care what people think of her.

    As for the Villains Voldemort is the got to be mentioned because he is evil, but I agree Umbridge is just nasty. I despised her in The Order.

    I think that Bellatrix is probably my favorite

    And though it's not precisely "Harry Potter" I'm going to say the best villain will go to Johnny Depp as Grindelwald..cause you know, Johnny Depp...yummm
