Yes I've never been much of a Gryffindore fan myself.Actually I've never really liked the main characters in any given story.I confess,I don't like Harry that much,it does not mean that I don't like him.I don't know,it's like a lot of people go for the main character or say he's their favorite but it's only just because he is the main character(even if other characters are far more interesting and complex than the main one).This came from way back in 1991,(I'm thinkin' a lot of you probably weren't even born yet,man I'm old)I followed Michael Jeffrey Jordan's carrer since the mid 80's and I would go on and on of how good he was but everybody would say that he was not that great.They would say that Magic Johnson was better or Isiah Thomas(I also love both these players) because they were the world champs(Detroit Pistons 89'-90',L.A. Lakers 87'-88')So the whole world was all over them.Then the Bulls go and win the championship in 91' and now all of a sudden everybody is tellin' me "have you seen Michael Jordan play,man he is the best,he is my favorite player ever and my hero".So now my childhood hero was everybody's hero because now the spotlight was on him.So I realize it's the same with other things,a lot of people are gonna say Herry is their favorite not because they like him but because he is the main character so they automatically put it in their brain thet Harry is the best character.So usually I stay away from main characters(I don't like to be a sheep),I study them all and see "who is" the most interesting character to me,not necesarilly the best,just my favorite.
