uhhh loads of people said that. people were like they cast a chick that was too cute as Hermione because in the books she was never described as a dime piece. nikkas had a fukkin countdown to when she'd become legal my cac.

lol. this is true, but she caught the eye of a young quidditch pro whom all the girls were swooning over so she must of been somewhat attractive......

fukk Harry Potter. My nikka Lee Jordan should have been the protagonist.

or how bout my nikka Dean. he shoulda got more shine. JK rowling was a racist for not letting the black folks at Hogwarts being more than sideshows. I hate how she introduced that Slytherin nikka in book 6 (Blaise) and didn't have him doing shyt. All these black characters roaming around and none of them got to be part of the crew. She shoulda thrown Neville's wack ass to the curb and had Dean kill the Basilk.

Harry Potter went from Cho Chang to Ginny.

:bryan: The fukk kind of downgrade is this? Ginny is some fukking Weasel Rat with like 6 siblings living a fukking shack.

I know. That shyt came outta nowhere. I couldn't stand how she tried to pass it off as Ginny being some dimepiece when she was getting with tons of nikkas in book 5. The bytch went to the Yule Ball with fukkin Neville the year before. Now she got all the top dudes tryin to check for her. fukk outta here. :camby:

Harry shoulda been with Hermione after his infatuation with Cho ended. Ron shoulda been killed. And Snape should gone out more brolic. That woulda made the series perfect.

true. but book 4 I believe came out after the first movie or right around there. I just remember thinking when I saw the movie that almost everyone looked like I imagined except Hermoine who was too cute.

Now the "wish fulfillment" statement makes sense. Ron was based on some childhood friend/crush and Hermione was based on her :ehh:
So she put herself as a very smart female who is respected for her intelligence.

She also regrets not putting herself with the main character who is a living legend after she put herself with her childhood crush.

I see an obvious self inflation. :manny:

*******************IMPORTANT POST WARNING**********************


this is where people fukk up

in the books it's hinted that Ginny as hot as fukk and mad popular... in the movie she's a 5/10

undoubtedly people think "ginny" they think "average girl in the movie" and thats completely wrong.

ginny was supposed to be a 9 and hermione the 6 (but 7/8 when she was dolled up like at the yule ball, plus her intelligence), instead they fukked up with that and made hermione the 9 and ginny a 5 in the movies (not their fault with emma watson, but ginny shouldve been sexier than hermione by a long shot)
good post

after reading book 6 i was sure that they would recast ginny to a sexier actress. I was surprised after seeing the film that they kept the average looking Ginny.

I hope everyone in here has read the books and not just the films because imo the films after 4 were terrible and changed parts that shouldnt of been changed

I just feel Harry was done wrong by them casting such a homely lookin bytch for Ginny. But yeah it should've been Harry/Hermione or Harry/Luna. That woulda been a game changer and so much more fukking interesting if he went with Luna. I honestly hoped that was what it was going down to. She was such a Bizzare and interesting character tho that it couldn't happen I guess.

Wtf does Ginny even do mane. That shyt was so forced

nikkas talkin about that would've been cliche....like the book isn't filled with cliches :heh:
  • the underdog hero saves the day
  • a boy has a great destiny to fulfill
  • everybody lives happily ever after in the end
  • the evil guy dies

C/S I remember reading HBP in 2005(damn almost a decade ago...time flies doesn't it) and thinking this Blaise Zabini guy was gonna be big later on in the book then u see he just disappears :wtf:

Don't get me started on how she got lazy with making new DADA spells in the last 2 books and saying every second hwo___insert character knocked a "powerful curse" at random villan :mjpls:

But that's for another thread in Arcadium....

To the guy/guys who said if Harry/Hermione got together it would be too "cheesy" and "Twilight".........this is the same book that at the end a mother at the end of the last book(Molly) called Bellatrix a "bytch", people were described showing their middle fingers numerous times through the books, and there were other mature and adult humor....

I think sometimes u guys let the cheesy movies let u forget about what the books were like

No reason why she can't write in that Harry and Hermoine have been having an affair all those years after the last battle. Make one of Ron's/Hermonie's kids be really Harry's and transform Ron into the new villain of the second series:manny:
:wow:

Breh...I mean Ron is in no way shape or form skilled enough to last as a villain for more than a week, especially with Hermione and Harry on the other side, but if he somehow stepped his game up hat would be fukking doooope. shyt growing up with us. :whew:

I think J.K. Rowling had a good plan in the beginning. If that plan had been executed properly, then it would have been absolutely wonderful. The problem was that her writing took her in a different direction with her characters. It happens. Harry and Hermione took the lead while Ron and Ginny did not develop how they needed to in order to properly execute her original plan.

What should have happened was that if her writing was shoving Harry/Hermione together, she should have gone that direction as early as possible. No last minute changes, but a romantic development throughout the story with Ron and Ginny standing on their own in the end.

Instead, we had indecisiveness that made Ron and Ginny look worse than what they actually were. Harry and Hermione were given the weight of the story while Ron was treated as a tag-along and Ginny as a romantic interest. They weren't given the personal development that made them as equals with Harry and Hermione but were just shoved into preconceived roles which J.K Rowling did not end up developing.

The issue is not who is better together, but that J.K. Rowling did not develop her original plan properly and would not go where she was being led. I was a big fan of Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione in the beginning, but ended up upset over how the couples ended up. I think the canon couples were the best plan, but not if you only go into them half-heartily.

I agree random internet person, I agree :wow:
