cuz she wont a young nigga

dullest

the writer is a fucking retard that stumbled into making 6 good children's books.

Because Rowling was tired of people telling her what a hack she was and how predictable and cliche her books were, so she removed the obvious pairing and hasn't stopped bitching about how her fanbase 'bullied her' into it ever since.

>>83031251
>Listening to your fans
Women were a mistake.

Because Ron was the insert for her childhood friend she had a massive crush on, and since Hermione was her self-insert she put those two together as a form of wish-fulfillment.

Any other answer is fucking wrong because she's flat out said so herself.

>>83031140

You mean two.

>>83031350
here I'll compromise, two good children's books and 4 good YA books.

Three good children's book, one good book that could pass as children's or young adult, a good young adult, a passable stumble, and a good young adult/possibly flat out novel that dealt with what was given to it and all in all provided a satisfying ending.

Then she let two gits write the bottom of the barrel fanfiction, and gave it her stamp of approval. Though to be fair, if so hadn't been so hyped and just saw the play it might have been whatever, especially if I was still a kid.

Even for of one of the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises, its a predictable pairing. Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Because Rowling pussied out on making Ron and Harry an item and instead paired him with worst Weasley.

Imagine being Hermione in that series and having to be all like "damn, Ron Weasley, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your poverty and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my character and the real me." when all she really wants to do is fuck another Russian Quiditch champion in his Room of Requirement. Like seriously imagine having to be Hermione and not only attend that school while Ron Weasley flaunts his disgusting ginger body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing his hand-me-downs and perpetual underachieving, and just sit there, class after class, hour after hour, while he perfected his goalkeeping skills. Not only having to tolerate his monstrous fucking visage but his haughty attitude as everyone on set tells him he's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, RON WEASLEY PLAYS QUIDDITCH LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch his mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of upperclassmen and Tri-Wizard champions and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Muggledom. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on his freckled face as he tries to kiss you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get credit for sitting there and revel in his "bloody brilliant (for that is what he calls himself)" magic, the magic he worked so hard for with personal trainers in the previous months. And then the author calls for another book, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the Dementors could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Hermione. You're not going to lose your future magical career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

Because of Harry's traumatic childhood and need of a motherly figure... plus on the books Ginny kinda is like Lidsay Lohan on mean girls hot and Hermione is not Emma Watson hot.

>>83032809
they really should have chosen a hotter Ginny. if they just chose someone actually hot hot than no one would be questioning the pairing. even with emma as herm.

>>83032809
I wonder how much that pissed off JK. Little ugly nerd Emma ended up turning into one of the hottest people to ever exist and it fucked up her story.

>>83033197
you know JK is just an old bitter female and gets angry every time she see's emma in a new movie.
i wouldnt be surprised if the only people talking shit on emmas looks are women.

out in the rl if emma is brought up in some way or a nother. the males will either not comment or say she is pretty , but the females will ALWAYS talk about how emma isnt actually that hot and blah blah for at least 5 minutes.

its what i think about when i see people writing shit about her looks here on 4chan.

It kind of is one of risks of children casting. Puberty can go either way. Tom Felton almost needed to be put to pasture with Jude Law at some point while Emma became a super model.

5-8 are completely distinguishable. They all are.

5 political surrealistesque harry mindfuck
6 dreary dreamlike gothic ESBesque
7 low point slow orwellian heavy with character dev
8 everyone has their last hurrah and its almost all adrenaline

The cinematographers soundtracks and direction alone make them different. 5 was a tone shift like the book.

Just because they have the same editor who is great he did ex machina, doesnt mean they aren't distinguishable.

Jk isn't too bad herself. And I dint think she cares at all nor does it matter the character was played spot on jk likely gets emotional over it if she were to talk about it. The films made the character more layered than the books anyways, they just allowed for it when they had moments where they didn't have to act like caricatures. Both ron and hermione.

>"I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment. That's how it was conceived, really," Rowling says in the interview. "For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron."

>"I know, I'm sorry," she adds. "I can hear the rage and fury it might cause some fans, but if I'm absolutely honest, distance has given me perspective on that. It was a choice I made for very personal reasons, not for reasons of credibility."
