  I agree with you about the Ron/Hermione awkwardness.  With the fear of the Hippogriff (minor fear yes, but potrayal of "fear" nonetheless) looked very deliberate, kind of mechanical like, it wasn't natural.  When Harry and Hermione ran through the forest stricken with fear or going up the stairs of the shreiking(sp?) shack, the physical contact seemed a lot more natural to me.  And as for directors playing on the chemistry, what about Newell and Goblet for instance.  The Harry/Hermione hug in the champions tent before the first task?  Ok that wasn't in the book that way.  Actually she was suppose to hug him and Ron after the task, but instead she throws herself through the curtain, out of concern for her friend of course, and hugs the crap out of him, and all we get for the Harry/Ron reunion was "Boys".  I just believe their chemistry was played up in the films.  Not to say that Rupert and Emma aren't close, they say they are, but I don't see her as physical off screen
 with him as she is with Dan.  Then again it can be said that the Hermione/Ron awkwardness shows more of a possible liking toward each other as oppose of her easiness of being physical with Harry which represents friendship.
  Funny thing is, before Prisoner, I had only watched the movies, never read the books.  It wasn't until Prisoner making a fan and Goblet the movie that made me want to read the books.  And yet, although I love Prisoner and have watched it an unGodly number of times (i'm watching it right now, on cable) I never once interpreted Harry and Hermiones physicalness as a possible relationship between the 2 characters.  I thought it was so awesome that in Goblet (movie) Rita Skeeter thought they were more, when it was so obvious they were soo not.  I knew the Ginny had to be coming, it was obvious although i would like it not too.lol
