    Ryan Davis

    Person » credited in 9 games

    Ryan Davis was a GameSpot editor and co-founder of Giant Bomb. He was solely responsible for founding batmanbatmanbatman.com and cocainemountain.com, and went by the online nickname of "Taswell." Ryan passed away on July 3, 2013. He is gone but never forgotten. We love you, Ryan.

    Is it just me, or does Ryan Davis look EXACTLY like Hagrid!??

    Just watched HP: the Prisoner of Azkaban yesterday and holy crap...Ryan Davis landed a role in the franchise! 

    Is it just me or does he not look exactly like Hagrid?!

    Decide for yourself.

    All he is missing is, "A great big bushy beard" <----Sorry I had to throw a Hot Fuzz quote in there.

    But yeah, they look a tad similar in the face.

    Hmm...yeah, I can definitely see the resemblence.  Now when I go to see the new movie, I will probably start thinking about Giant Bomb when Hagrid shows up.

    HAGRID IS REAL!
    OMG I CAN TOTALLY GO TO HOGWARTS NOW!!
    Thank you so much for pointing this out you have changed my life forever.


    I've kinda thought about it a couple of times but when you put it side by side, they look pretty similar.

    No it's just fat man syndrome. Basically the fat and chubbiness homogenizes the features of the person, especially the facial features. It's why all babies look the same.

    Well Ryan doesn't quite have Hagrid's crazy beard but the problem now is if I ever do see that new Harry Potter film the whole time I'm going to be shouting "Ryan, nooooo!".

    Right when I read the title of the thread, I thought of Ryan's scary drunk look on the front page of the one-year anniversary video. Because, when you think about it, he does, to the point where it's kind of weird. Further research in this topic just goes to show such a conjecture is true. All he's missing is the obvious beard and burly British voice, as well as the love for Harry Potter. Needless to say, great topic, (wo)man.

    Alan Moore looks more similar to Hagrid than Ryan, personally.

    Yes yes yes. Hot Fuzz is amazing. "Who wants cake?"
     
    And yes, I do notice a similarity between the two. It is funny really; Ryan can look like a bunch of people. He even looks like Kevin Smith in a sense:
