| | |  Emma Watson talks Lavender, Hermione & Ron love triangle in Half-Blood Prince
Wizard Universe has published their recent interview with Emma Watson (they first released Daniel Radcliffe's interview, which can be read here), during which she spoke about the love triangle between Hermione, Ron and Lavender in Half-Blood Prince, as well as Rupert Grint's comedic turn in the sixth film. Quote: What is Hermione's big moment and big sequence in the sixth film?
WATSON: There's this mean girl called Lavender who has a bit of a crush on Ron. It's leaked in the beginning of the film that Hermione and Ron are finally going to get it together, and then she steps in. Hermione is sensitive and quite mean, really. And it's very much about how she sort of despises Lavender. Not really because she's taken Ron away, but because she's kind of the opposite of Hermione. So it's very comic and also quite sad for her. It's very Ron based, her part.
Do you think the fans of the book will find "Half-Blood Prince" to be a faithful adaptation?
WATSON: I hope so. I think we've stuck as close as we possibly can without making a ten-hour movie. We've never had that complaint before, and I personally am such a big fan of the books. I've read them each of them three or four times so I think that's a really good focus for us.
When you look back at the making of this film, what do you think you might remember from it?
WATSON: What really stuck out for me was Ron's Quidditch scene. It was so funny. Rupert's comic timing is just brilliant and he's so funny. There's this great scene where Hermione and Lavender are fighting over Ron, and we had a bit of fun with that. With Dumbledore's death scene it was absolutely freezing that night and it was a very sad scene, really.
Emma also discusses the advantages of David Yates remaining the director of the final four Harry Potter films, and the dynamic with changing directors throughout the series: Quote: What are the pros and the cons of having the same directors a couple times in a row versus having different directors coming in each time?
WATSON: It was a lot of fun having new directors because there was more energy and you knew there would be something new every time. But David [Yates] is a very good director and I think he's done a really good job with it. When you get to know someone you can trust them, and it gave him more a chance to try different things out.
Rupert Grint's interview will be released later this week, which we will have here as soon as it is up.  | |

Spoilt? possibly, who knows..
Mean, no...
I guess they didn't see anything wrong with changing a minor characters personality to make the whole love/hate triangle more interesting..
That's just completely my opinion though It's pretty typical of the whole "two girls fighting over one boy" scenario; it's easier to portray one negatively. Sad but true.

Miss Rabastan, you are a goddess, that had to be the most eloquent way of what I've been trying to say since Prisoner of Azkaban came out, with regards to how the characters are being protrayed, and how much off the meat and bones of the storylines are bing pulled apart for the sake of cutey little one-liners.

Great interview!!
I am sorry but those who are "waiting for the series to be redone" Are going to wait FOREVER because WB has such an iron clad contract, not to mention Jo's contracts, this is probably the only set ever going to be made. And as far as people not liking how the movies are being edited from the book and all..... JUST REMEMBER JO ROWLING SIGNS OFF ON THE SCRIPT----IF SHE IS HAPPY WITH IT THEN SO AM I!!!! Just My Opinion though!

I guess I'm just going to have to wait until someone else redoes the movie series. Hopefully it's in my lifetime Well, you're absolutely right. I've said it many times... I consider myself more of a "purist" when it comes to the book and the movie; i'll take the book everytime. Too bad they've put in so many "non-essential" scenes. | |

So excited to see Hermione and Lavender fighting over Ron!!!!  As for Emma not saying "love" between Ron and Hermione it is because Hermione realizes it more towards the end- she has feelings for Ron that she has never been able to admit-later that of course turns into her true love and vice versa. Ron/Hermione/Lavender are my favorite part in the book. As for Lavender not being mean- I disagree on that- when she is yelling at Ron and saying what is "SHE" doing w. you- I mean def jealous but at the same time comes across as mean and nasty with Hermione. Anyway JMO :-)

Anyway JMO :-) Possessive, is the word I'd use. Which also describes Hermione's behaviour. Teenage girls in general, go a bit ga-ga for their first loves and end up being nasty to each other, when really they should realise friends > boys.

^ Sounds like playground romance to me,  . Let's not forget, the characters are teenagers...you can't really have 'true love' at that age, .
