Harry Potter vs. Darth Vader

by Travis Prinzi on November 1, 2005

Harry Potter has been voted the number one film fantasy hero of all time, while Darth Vader won greatest villian.

A spokesman for UK Sci-Fi said: “It’s great that a home-grown icon has been voted the greatest hero. To give film fans their ultimate showdown, JK Rowling needs to pit her boy wizard against Darth Vader.”

Think there’s any chance a re-vote 4 years from now would yield a new result, with Ralph Fiennes’ portrayal of Lord Voldemort beating out Darth Vader?

Yeah, me neither; but I still think he’s going to do a great job with it. Bring on November 18th! Anyone planning on going to a midnight showing? I think I’m going to an IMAX, whichever time I choose.

Midnight showing for me man. The movies have been “okay” at best for me. But this one looks very good.

Yeah, I know I wouldn’t have enjoyed the first two movies as much had I read the books first. I just plain didn’t like the third one very much, aside from the fact that the acting got a lot better.

Looks like my friend got us free tickets for the IMAX showing, first thing in the morning Nov. 18. So no midnight for me.
