It won't let me reply to the Daniel Radcliffe on Lemony thread. But I'll say something. Lemony Books are well better than Harry Potter, and Daniel radcliffe needs to shut up (says in tone of the dude in cheese string advert) because he aint even a proper actor, he's just a look-a-like who doeswn't know a thing about acting. So if the ASoUE film wasn't being done by Nick it'd probably be better anyway

Slander.
Daniel Radcliffe has improved over the 3 Harry Potters more than any actor I've seen! And he CAN act.
However, his abuse towards Klaus was a BIT unfair.

I wasnt happy (obviously) to see Radcliffe and his opinion about Klaus' appearance, but I think he and the other for the cast of HP are great actors!
Radcliffe, Grint, and Whatsson (sp?) are all three great actors and have inproved very much since the first film.

well..i don't think that.. you guys all seem to hate him for what he said..i don't think he was saying the books were bad or that they're a harry potter rip offs. he was just saying what he thought of klaus' appearance.. i think many people would think that way when they haven't read the books and saw the cover once. i'm not saying it's a good thing but it's the sad truth. and i don't think we should hate people for making that mistake..end of story.

well, you can be a sad fan, but I could get a whole petition to proove he can't act! Why would you even waste your time doing something as stupid as that? If someone likes an actor and thinks he can act, then there's nothing much you can do to change that. Now I can get on the topic of everyone's deal with the Liam and Daniel Radcliffe crap thing. But first I bring you QUOTES from the last thread! 1. I hate Daniel Radcliffe....thinks hes all that, and actually dares to label the Snicket books as copying!!! I used to like Harry Potter, but as you can tell...I despise it now. 2. From now on, am I am taking a disliking to Daniel Radcliffe. 3. Dan Radcliff is such a....I wont say that word in case there are kids around. Cheap, phony actor, nasty glasses wearing, braindead, icky hippie-wannabie!!! I hope he gets teh blood sucked out of him by leeches or attacked by snakes or crows! Thatll show him!!! ... Really, did you guys really read what Radcliffe said? Dude, Daniel just said he hadn't read the books and that he noticed a character looked like Harry Potter. COMMON MISTAKE. I think everyone when they first saw the book covers before they read the series thought at one point, ' Hmmmm... That character kind of looks like Harry Potter.' It's called being OBSERVANT. It's no reason to go up and say you hate a person because they use their brain and eyes together to see slight similarities between pictures. He hasn't read the books, but that doesn't mean you should go and insult him either. Honestly, Harry Potter and A Series of Unfortunate Events are two very different sets of books. The only thing remotely linking them is that they are both childrens books. And that Klaus has round Harry Potter glasses. That's it. So whoever keeps trying to compare the two needs to stop. One isn't really better than the other. It's just a matter of personal taste. And the movie or the actors should affect your opinion of the books. If they do, then you are either a) of an age that consists of a single digit or b) not really reading the books, just relying on the movies and books to help you understand.

I think that people are taking the quote as to what he may be implying. Sort of like Klaus looking like HP might have kept him from reading the books. I'm not saying this is what happened, but what some people may be taking his statement for.

Its not that Radcliffe is a bad person or a bad actor (I was the last quote you put that overracted big time...heheh), Im just saying he needs to be careful when hes observant. You see, the first Snicket book I read was TAA back in 2002. I looked at the cover and thought Hey, I read an article about these books that said they are miserable. I wonder if its true. I should read it. Plus, the cover looks good! Never did I compare Klaus to Harry Potter, and I havent done it yet. I think they look completely diffferent. Remove his glasses and BAM hes just Klaus. If people spend their time caring about comparison, then they should stop and get a new outlook on life.
See, when I posted the original post on the original topic, I was overreacting. But I still dont think he should compare so much, especially to say that it looked like someone had simply drawn Harry on the cover of the book, as though he meant Klaus looks exactly like Harry. I dont totally agree with all of your opinions, people, but that doesnt mean I totally disagree. I agree that what he said did not reflect his opinion on the books, but I dont think he should have said what he said.
PS: I like both series a lot. My taste just bends towards ASoUE more. Like I said, I never compare them. There isnt even any grounds to do so.

there should be a support group for this, like Alcoholics Anonymis (sp?)
Hi, my name is john, and I havent compared Klaus to Harry Potter in five months!
*everyone claps* "good for you, john!" screams a female member.
It could be fairy tale comparers (word?) anonymis. FTCA
