Dobby's fan club

Posted by Rabid Newz (Member # 7704) on :

That is very interesting. Very interesting indeed.

Some fan club, poor guy is trapped in a box.

What sick and demented individual would admit to being a member of the Dobby Fan Club? Most annoying character. Ever. More annoying, even, than Jar Jar Binks, and that's saying a lot.

Posted by Rabid Newz (Member # 7704) on :

I don't think that Dobby is more annoying than that Binks fellow. I would say they are tied. Both are equally annoying and frustrating.

*takes a closer look at linked pic above*

But Dobby works at Wal-Mart! That's gotta boost his annoy/frustrate factor past Jar Jar's. [Razz]

Dobby was intended to be annoying, and succeeded stupendously. Jar-Jar was intended to be loveable comic relief, and failed miserably.

Dobby was meant to be annoying in a loveable, endearing way. He pretty much worked in the books, but in HP:CoS I was rooting for the Malfoys.

Can't tell you how glad I was that Dobby got cut from movie GoF. I still can't read CoS because movie Dobby is in my head, although Stephen Fry has helped greatly with that.

Dobby is safe in the box. little children are evil and want to cook dobby. so dobby stay in box where evil children can't hurt dobby yes. [Laugh]

I found Dobby exasperating in CoS as well, but I actually liked him in GoF. I liked the whole house elf thing in GoF, I was upset when it was cut out.
