Andyzero: It is said that Ridcully from Terry Pratchett's Discworld was a parody of Radagast The Brown. In the movie; we see this go full circle; having not had an "official" personality; Radagast's movie persona is an inversion of the character said to be an inversion of the original. A timid; yet hyper; animal lover and Cloud Cuckoolander. (Like if Rincewind were braver and a druid.)
