Now me (Mathilde):
*takes 'Pumpkin Pie' flag out and waves frantically*
Hello to all H/H shippers out there and please welcome a dedicated french
mate aboard! :)
I also happen to think exactly the same way, Hermione and Harry are such a
perfect match! I am not too sure about the Hermione-Lily/Harry-James
connection, although I must say, Kimberly, that it certainly is a very
interesting way of looking at it, and you do have a point there. But there
is obviously more to the Harry-Hermione chemistry than just a repetition
of
the James-Lily scheme (especially since they didn't start quite as badly
as
Harry's parents did...) >>
You know what made me think of the Lily-Hermione connection was in book 5
when Harry witnessed
the scene with James (and gang) tormenting Snape, and Lily jumped to his
cause. I could see Hermione
doing the same thing. I always liked Harry and Hermione for most of the
reasons you mentioned in your
email, but it was like that chapter or "scene" just sealed my love for
them as a couple. I also like how
Hermione tells Harry how it is, and doesn't try to skirt things.
I could also see Ron becoming Hermione's first boyfriend while they're
still
at school (although it actually means I would spend a terrible time having
to read it in book 6 and/or 7!), but I don't think their relationship
would
be viable in the long run... But back to movies-related discussion! >>
I agree, I could see Ron as Hermione's first boyfriend, and you know, I
may be nuts but I think Ron and Luna
seem more compatible. At least through the books. :-)
I guess my view is very influenced by the movies, and by the great
chemistry
between Dan and Emma onscreen and, also, apparently, off-screen; cf
various
interviews, on The Leaky Cauldron or the recent PoA preview on abc... It
was
so funny to watch, that preview, when Dan starts saying that stuff about
the
fact that 'if textbooks did have teeth and were that vicious, you would
definitely pay more attention in class', Emma finishes his sentence
together
with him. It was really cute, and a nice surprise, for I have always
pictured Harry and Hermione as being those kind of people (no matter if
they
are romantically involved or just best friends) who would often finish
each
other's sentences. :) It's really funny to see how much the Trio kids
seem
to grow more and more like their characters! >>
It is hard to tell if the movie and actors is what influences our feelings
and image of the books. I saw SS
before reading the books, and saw the trio's chemistry but didn't think of
romance in SS. After all, they were
only 11. It was the books that made me like Harry and Hermione, and I
think Dan and Emma's chemistry
just makes it stronger. Of course, Emma could be one of those actresses
that would have chemistry with
a dish rag. LOL! She is so adorable and charming.
(*cue to Mathilde developping
her wild theories of a Ron sacrifice in the final confrontation, only to
realize that *that* would be *definitely* off topic.) >>
hehehe... I think Ron could be sacrificed too, but I'll leave this out of
the discussion also. :-)
PS2: Are you all aware of the PoA soundtrack listening party on AOL?
Here's
the link, it's well worth a check:

Someone posted this the other day, and I listened to it while the twins
and I watched SS on ABC. It was
driving my daughter nuts, because she was trying to watch the movie while
I was listening to PoA's soundtrack
on the laptop. I still like "Something Wicked" song. I know some hate
it, but I find it entertaining. :-)
