I agree with you on Emma's over acting in GoF.  Some of it was passable but a lot was way over the top.  I didn't think, "It's not going to work." was the worst, but it definately could have been toned down quite a bit.
   
  Through the whole movie I thought, "What the hell happened??  She's a much better actress than this!!
   
  By the way (shameless plug), I poke fun at 'Overdramatic Hermione' in my parody; Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire for the Attention Span Impared. Visit LiveJournal and search for user 'wootshanks'.  That's me!!

I totally forgot those two points in GoF! And I have to admit, I, too, LOVE
the study Hall scene. I think it is perhaps the funniest scene of all the
movies to date. Love the way Snape fixes his sleeves first and it's
superbly played by all. 

I have to admit (ducking) that I thought GoF was the worst Emma Watson
acting to date. I don't know if it was due to suggestions from the director
but there are several parts at which I cringe due to her acting: the
singsong "it's not going to work" and "huffs" afterward when the twins try
to cross the age line, her teary "whoop" at Harry's return from battling the
dragon and the "nevermind, off to bed with you" to Harry and Ron after the
Ball. Maybe it's just me but all of these just seem completely overacted.
I thought she was loads better in PoA.

JMO of course :o)
