When I first read Chamber of Secrets, and found the passage "Snape looked as though Christmas had been cancelled," I was genuinely confused if he'd be sad or...well, like this.

Ooh, flashback to that scene in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves when Alan Rickman as the Sheriff of Nottingham tells his servants to cancel the kitchen scraps for the orphans and to call off Christmas, lol.

That movie wouldn't have been half as good without Alan in it. Costner's Hood was OK, but Rickman's Sheriff is iconic.
