Oh, chill out. It's not like this is some shot out of the blue; when Harris died, it was pretty obvious they'd replace him with either McKellen or Lee. And McKellen makes more sense, 'cause Lee's, what now, 80 something?<P>I enjoy the HP movies, and I think the books are fun. They aren't on the same level as LotR, obviously, but there's no reason to compare them. HP is a children's story, and a darn good one. This is just stupid predjudice against anything that imitates (in any way) our beloved Lord of the Rings. Go read the books. I don't know a single person who has read them and didn't enjoy them on some level. The movies are fun, and if I were Sir Ian, I'd jump at a chance to be in them.<P>Of course, it'd have been pretty cool if Christopher Lee got to be in Star Wars, Lord of the Rings <I>and</I> Harry Potter... Oh well.
