  • Probably Gandalf because of wisdom. And Dumbledore doesn't have it in him to kill whereas Gandalf does it on a regular basis + he has a sword :)
  • Gandalf is a Maia, a minor god or angel. He is naturally incorporeal, but can take on any form. He and a few others have been sent on a mission to help the peoples of Middle-earth against Sauron, a mission for which they have been clothed and bound in the form of old men; they are called the Istari, and mortals have called them "wizards". In Tolkien's world, "generic fantasy wizards" with spells, and magic tomes and potions do not exist. -- Dumbledore is a human and a "generic fantasy wizard", so they are completely different creatures in worlds with a different concept of power and magic, so they are not comparable.
  • ...But if you absolutely had to put them in a fight with lethal intention, Gandalf would be vastly more powerful. And if you put Dumbledore against Gandalf in his limited "Gandalf the Grey" form, and Dumbledore could somehow kill that body, that would just set the Maia Gandalf free to use all of his power and knowledge again.
  • Gandalf would win, he's immortal. Unlike Gandalf, Dumbledore can be killed.

Dumbledore

  • Although i do believe that Gandalf would kick ass, he isn't necessarily invincible, he can only be sent back ( like in lotr ) if his mission was to kill or stop Dumbledore. If it wasn't his mission he wouldn't be sent back, so Dumbledore could conceivably overcome his Gandalf the Grey form.

PS--both being loving and caring characters if fantastic timeless fantasy works, they would not fight each other, but discuss wizard theories and contemplate elf lore!

Why diddn't voldemart try to kill Neville longbottem?

Dumbledore never tried to kill Voldemort because he always had a hope that Voldemort had good in him and that the good would eventually win. He believed that he was more likely to win the war and help Harry by doing good and not causing harm. If he attempted to kill Voldemort, then he would be no better than Voldemort.

Did ian mckellen play in both Lord of the Rings and the 3 Harry Potter?

If your talking about Dumbledore, then no. Sir Michael Gambon played Dumbledore in the prisoner of Askaban onwards, and Richard Harris, played him in the philosopher's (sorcerer's) stone and the chamber of secrets.

What if Harry Potter killed dumbledore?

He wouldn't. If he did Harry would be a different character who would have been on Voldemort's side. Basically the whole story would be different. Umm, Yeah right. He would NEVER in his life kill Dumbledore. He loves Dumbledore a lot, and he would have to be a Death Eater or something if he was crazy enough to do that.
