He's also freakishly tall now. I think the only other actor who really shot up to be as tall is the dude who plays Dean Thomas aka Harry's token black room mate.
I think his looks peaked though in POA but went downhill from there personally. But I think Matthew Lewis aka Neville has to be the one who surprised me the most at how good looking he has become. Check out the photo of him with the cast from the OOTP.
I feel so sorry for Dan though. He always looks so short.

I think it's funny that they cast Matthew because he was a chunky kid.
Neville is described thru book 7 as being chunky, but Matthew had already slimmed down by 2d movie, even more so by 3d! He's like the English Jerry O'Connell, who was a chunky kid while shooting "Stand by Me", but by time it came out, he was a lean, gawky kid who went on to star in "My Secret Identity" and later, "Sliders".
Tom got hotter as he grew up but I still find Rupert to be the best looking.
Tom felton is indeed a hot guy, but this photo has been photoshoped, it's not his body.
He looks good in the photo. Great body, nice blond hair, decent face. What's there to photoshop? A bad nose or something?
I have thousands of video movies and write Movie Reviews. With the Harry Potter movies, what I don't like about them is they're too much like some other movies. Truthfully, on a superficial level I cannot tell them apart from the Lord of the Rings stuff. They looks about the same, sound about the same, with the same special effects off the same assembly line.
One thing puzzles me, though, I have "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" and "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". They are identical except for the title. I suspect "Sorcerer's Stone" came out first, but when Christian parents were outraged by the evil implications of sorcery, the producers quickly changed the title to something more lucrative.

Typical American-centric thinking.
The books came out in England first. They are written by an English author. They are set in England. And Philosopher is the English title, where Sorceror is the American one. Philosopher came first.
The reason it was changed to Sorceror for the American market is because they assumed Americans were simply too stupid to know what a philosopher was.
And for anyone that thinks that's US bashing, the wording may be a little harsh - but it's actually true - he he. Although it is arguable that Hogwarts is in Scotland - JKR although English wrote the books in a cafe in Edinburgh - and the architecture is definitely more Scots than English.
The dust jackets on the US versions were always better though.
- Deno,
With the pic saying Drako at the bottom and it looking like the pic could come from a movie and knowing Drako is a large part of the up and coming Blood Prince title, could this pic possibly be from the movie coming out in july of 2009. Can anyone answer a question about Drako's father. Why wouldn't Harry have told people that Drako's father was present in the cemetery when his friend was killed. And was Drako's father killed in that battle at the end of the 5th movie.

Thank you for explaining this. However, both of my "Philosopher" and "Sorcerer" videos are on VHS (I have Potter on DVD also) using the NTSC system, not PAL. Therefore they are both for the North American market.
I've always believed (until now) that my "Sorcerer" version was a rarity, probably collectable. It does seem now that the "Philosopher" is probably the rare one, because an internet search confirmed that both the book and film were titled "Philosopher" in the UK, and "Sorcerer" in the US. I hate being confused by the marketing of a kid's fairy tale.

Deno, the pic looks to me like slash art. If you're not familiar with slash fiction, it's a form of fan fiction that depicts romantic and/or sexual relationships between male characters, such as Kirk/Spock from Star Trek, Clark/Lex from Smallville, and Harry/Draco from Harry Potter.
Slash fiction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is also slash art, which exists in every style there is: paintings, drawings, cartoons, pen & ink, etc. One style of slash art is to take real images of the actors and then use Photoshop to combine them with erotic or porno photos, so that you have what looks like a pic of the two characters naked in bed together.
I don't want to post any pics or links of Harry Potter slash, because inevitably it will include some underage images, but you can search around. There's a Draco/Harry slideshow on YouTube which is a good example of what I'm talking about. There was even one video on YouTube that was edited to look like Harry was giving Draco a blowjob.
Here are some examples of Lord of the Rings slash art:
