Harry Potter - Granger Geeks: Who says bookworms don't wear pink?

**ღ misty** · 05-22-2005, 08:43 AM

Brunette, bushy-haired and formerly bucktoothed, Hermione was at first a bossy know-it-all who irritated Ron and Harry tremendously, that is until a shared traumatic experience with a troll. After that, she became an appreciated and vital part of "the trio". Though often referred to as "the brain" of the outfit, she is also "the glue" that holds the three of them together (especially when Ron and Harry fight)

Hermione was born to muggle parents who happened to be both dentists, oblivious to the excistence of the wizarding world until the arrival of her letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But her muggle upbringing did not hinder her from being the top of her class, knowing charms above her level, and casting jinxes that even highly trained witches can't counter.

As the best student Hogwarts has seen for many a year, she can be uptight about rules and school work, she often chastised Harry and Ron's constant and often careless rule-breaking. But although she has "loosened up" a great deal in recent years, she has kept a good head on her shoulders. Now, she doesn't hessitate to "bend" a few rules if she knows it's necessary for a good cause. She has also developed a social conscience. During her fourth year she makes great humanitarian efforts towards house elf liberation.

The years have been kind to her as well. Though often at times dismissed by Ron and Harry as "one of the boys" by her fourth year, she has proven that she is indeed a pretty GIRL, catching the attention of famous international Quidditch superstar, Triwizard champion and hero of the Quidditch World Cup, Viktor Krum.

However, Viktor Krum isn't the only one to have paid her some attention. As the most 'elidgeable Bachelorette' of the series and basically the only girl around tons of available guys, Hermione became known as "the most shippable" HP character. Fans have been known to read and re-read the books numerous times and spot these so-called "Hermione's shippy moments".

Justin Finch-Fletchey : "And you're Hermione Granger, always top in everything"

Terry Boot: "With a mind like yours, you should be in Ravenclaw"

Oliver Wood: "He could have kissed her."

Neville Longbottom: "She's always been really nice, helping him out with work and stuff- "

"Professor" Remus J. Lupin: "You're the cleverest witch of your age I've ever met, Hermione."

Viktor Krum: "He'd never felt the same way about anyone else."

Harry Potter: "But I don't think you're ugly."

Ronald Weasley: (When she kissed him on the cheek) "he seemed to come to himself slightly as they walked back across the Great Hall. He touched the spot on his face where Hermione had kissed him, looking puzzled, as though he was not quite sure what had just happened. He seemed too distracted to notice much around him..."

Sounds like she has quite the impact doesn't she?

But the most popular thus far is pairing her with everyone's favorite Blonde, raven-haired and red-head.

Miss Emma Watson

Ms. Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson's first foray into the world of professional acting came at the tender age of 10, when she made her superb debut in Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone, though her natural ability has been evident since an early age with highly praised performances in several school productions.

Inspite of her inexperience as a professional actor and the fact that it's often said she's "too cute" to play the "supposedly" plain Hermione, Emma portrayed her adorably, making it possible for us all to see a litle of ourselves in her character, and earning rave reviews from critics and fans alike.

TRIVIA: Although she played the part of bosy know-it-all quite effectively onscreen, in real life, Emma is a bit shy.

Thank you to Sade for organizing the opening post...and to Intrceptr350 (Kathy) for having the patience to do it. *wink* And to Ana Luthor for giving us some fresh banners.

Scabbers9 was awesome enough to open her own Emma Watson site filled with tons of amazing pics. You can find them at www.emma-watson.net

If anyone else has some great Emma Watson sites to share, by all means send 'em, and I'll see if I can add them to the opening post. (as if it wasn't complicated enough

*antarian angel* · 05-22-2005, 02:37 PM

yay! new thread! i

the title.

thanks, Ana!

roswellcharmed_2000 · 05-22-2005, 08:18 PM

the trio on and off screen is so cool. they are in these huge movies, yet they don't sit there and get all egotistical about it. i think it shows something that each one of them is still going through school and taking the tests and all that. a lot of stars don't even finish or try to finish high school, but its smart to do that. you never know what will happen in the future for them.

however, i do think they all have a great future in films, espacially emma. she has so much potential for so many different roles.

JustLikePamBeesly · 05-22-2005, 09:03 PM

ya lots of actors/ singers get done with school early I mean Brie LArson is done with High School at the age of 15. I am just happy they get a education

Yay for the new thread. The title rocks

Thanks for the pics Ana. Awww, she is so beyond adorable in that first one. I just wanna pinch her cheeks

jennifer8 · 05-23-2005, 08:34 AM

Hi all!

That first pic is pretty damn funny. l feel kinda bad tho because all three of them seemed out-of-sorts during the DVD launch.

Stupid thread title, btw.

**ღ misty** · 05-23-2005, 08:49 AM

Your welcome, guys

Btw, silly Jen

And I agree, Emma especially, looked pretty tired. Wonder why...but even so, she was lovely, as usual ^^"

Shining Light · 05-23-2005, 08:54 AM

Yeah, Emma looked shattered during the launch. I bet she sometimes felt like telling the photographers and their cameras to just pi$$ off

But our girl is far too nice for that

**ღ misty** · 05-23-2005, 09:01 AM

It must be pretty hard to pretend you're all happy and put a huge smile on your face when the only thing you want is to get the hell out of there. But Emma is polite and even tired, she manage to be very nice. Go girl ^^"
