| | |  Dan Radcliffe: "Superman … was too perfect."
In an interview done in the midst of filming Order of the Phoenix, Dan Radcliffe speaks about playing an angry Harry. Quote:
I think Harry this time, he is angry and he has every right to be. And also, he ... actually ... I think he is actually quite frail. He is very vulnerable this year and that is great to play.
You know, you've got all these archetypal super heroes sort of flying around these days...but I think the best heroes are the ones with flaws. That's what I think's great about Batman. He is so weak in some ways as well. I think that works so well with the character, same with Spiderman. Superman is ... um ... when I was reading comics, Superman was never my favorite. He was too perfect.
… there is one scene where I do ... I get to break a lot of things. It's very ... with any luck it should be very, very powerful. I will actually film the scene in Dumbledore's office where he talks about Sirius and how Dumbledore's responsible for Sirius' death indirectly. We do that next Monday. I am really looking forward to that.

I agree with Daniel about the heroes. Superman is justo too perfect while most of the others have real problems

I agree tragic heroes are awesome! superman and heroes/protagonists like him are just a little too unrealistic....characters with flaws connects their unreal world to the real world...

Actually, I think that is one of the reasons sooooo many people love Potter, Harry and his friends are so normal. As Harry himself said in SS: just Harry, they're just kids their age with all the virtues and flaws of any human being.
I'm looking forward to the breaking things scene.
Just a week!

Hes right some superheroes are just to perfect...that its sometimes so annoying!  Quote:

That sounds like so much fun!!
I wish I could break a whole bunch of stuff & still get paid for doing it!!

Yeah, that is why people love Harry Potter, he's a true hero with real problems, yet is a normal teenager and such. Superman was too perfect, it's always good to have a flawed character, it makes them more real.
EDIT: Who wouldn't want to break things? Sheesh, Dan's lucky! He can break things and not have to worry about paying for them! ANGER MANAGEMENT TO THE MAX, MAN!
