[HPFGU-OTChatter] Weekly Reader Interview

[Sherry Gomes]

I wouldn't take Dan's comments to mean anything in particular about the part
of Ron in the movies.  Often costars don't know each other well or downright
hate each other's guts.  The movie Wuthering heights is an example of the
two leading actors hating each other and yet brilliantly playing their parts
and making eternally lost love thing work.  however, I totally agree with
you about Ron and his parts in the movies.  In fact, it had begun to affect
my attitude toward Hermione in general, until I went back and read all the
books and remembered what her character is really like.  And of course, when
the time comes for movie of OOTP, we may see more separating of Ron, because
he's doing his own thing more.  But I want to see more of Ron in the movies
and don't want Hermione to be given all his lines in future.  Don't the
writers/directors realize that the fans are not happy about that?

Subject: [HPFGU-OTChatter] Weekly Reader Interview


Tonight I read an interview with Dan Radcliffe that was printed in
the Weekly Reader.  (There are links to it from TLC and Mugglenet)  I 
was really taken aback by something he said when asked about his co-
stars in the films.  He said he and Emma are like brother and sister, 
but that he doesn't really know Rupert.  There is something very
unsettling about that for me.  I hate that Hermione has so many of 
Ron's lines in the movies.  This interview makes me think that in the 
GOF movie we will see more of "Super" Hermione and less of Ron.  Ron
is 
one of my favorite characters in the book, and it stinks that the 
movies show him as merely comic relief.  And yes, I remember that Ron 
and Harry are at odds in the first part of GOF, but the fact that
they 
are such good friends makes their fighting that much more impactful.  
Sorry for the rant, but I know there are some of you who will 
understand.  And another thought...what does the minimizing of Ron's 
movie part say about his future in books six and seven...very curious.
