Actually, you never know. The actors probably know things about their characters that we don't. after all, JK Rowling is working closely with the movie, as well. she's already told Robbie Coltrane a few things about his character's future. She might have told the other actors some things about their characters as well. they might know the most about their characters next to JK Rowling. Plus, Rowling had worked beside the screenwriter to see if he was making the script go in the right direction. she even mentioned in some interview I remember watching a while back (I think it was in the chamber of secrets DVD) that the screenwriter was foreshadowing things that she didn't foreshadow until the fourth book, and the second movie was when they started showing clues of the R/Hr relationship.
I dont think JKR has been saying some thing on the actors like emma, Well I remember a quote of Rupert saying that the Ron Hermione thing will not be a good ending or will note be a satisfaction
about the interview,
And also Chris in the second film has kind of foreshadowed what I don't do until the fourth book, which is that you get hints of certain feelings between the three of them, that belong to a sort of slightly more mature person.
Now if JKR wanted us to think that there was something “going on” between Ron and Hermione and that Hermione and Harry are totally “just friends” then why did she choose the words “certain feelings between the three of them”? She could have easily have said something vague like “Chris foreshadowed what I don’t do until the fourth book which is that you get hints of certain feelings of attraction, which belong to a slightly more mature person.” This would have been vague enough to include all three of them, or just two of the three. Instead she used “between the three of them” which indicates that there is some form of a love triangle going on between the Trio members. Especially since Cho Chang is nowhere to be found in CoS, either in the movie or in the book. Unless someone is going to seriously say that there is hints of Harry/Ron going on in the movie, then it should be assumed that JKR’s choice of words showed that she was indicating some form of Harry/Hermione feelings as well as Ron/Hermione feelings being foreshadowed by Chris and by extension, GoF.
But if it is Ron and Hermione, who will Harry end up with? (I'm still with the Harry/Ginny idea but I am curious on what you people think, if it happens, if Ron and Hermion end up together, who will Harry end up with?)
thats the problem, the trio are the key units of the books. If Ron and Hermione, Harry and Ginny would be together it will still in effect Ron Hermione. It would have to be because it would involve two members of the trio - the key unit of the books. If you don't believe me, think about how it would work on screen in the HP films. We would have spent at least five or six films watching Hermione as the undoubted female lead, and five or six films feeling emotionally attached to the trio characters. The only film we know of where Ginny will have a role of any significance will be OoTP, and even then she will be well and truly overshadowed by Hermione. Now really - after all this time spent with the trio characters, would people realistically care more for the pairing of Harry/Ginny than they would for Ron/Hermione?

Well, it just seems like its a fight for Hermione now. THough I do see the motherly figure thing for Hermione to Harry. God who knows what will happen. Once more I am back to the Ron Hermione thing.

(I'm still with the Harry/Ginny idea but I am curious on what you people think, if it happens, if Ron and Hermion end up together, who will Harry end up with?)
He might end up with Luna, Ginny, or some new character that might appear in the future stories. Well, I think at least.

Well, first off, I think you're talking about when Rupert said that he wishes his character would die before having to kiss Hermione, because he wouldn't like doing love scenes with Emma, and that was when he was 12 or something. But he does believe Ron and Hermione like each other, even though he really doesn't want it to happen. And when they said relationships between the three of them, they meant how all three of them are becoming better friends, and how Ron and Hermione are developing a relationship. plus, if JK Rowling said something different, everyone might get suspicious. not to mention Harry and Hermione's feelings are more along the lines of good friends, unlike Ron and Hermione, who seem to get nervous whenever they're around eachother. And If you don't mind me saying, I personally think people can relate more to Ron and Hermione's relationship. And there are a lot of people who care about the R/Hr relationship.
Yeah, but it doesn't need to be with Hermione! plus, who says Ron can't have a love life? And who says he can't fall in love with Hermione? sometimes the sidekick should be the one getting the girl. it doesn't always have to be the hero.
but really for me, no offense, Hermione is really perfect for Harry, She protects him and does a lot for him. As for Ron its really ok for me if he ends up for hermione , im prepared for that, but he can have a lovelife too like for Luna or someone else. Just wanna ask you Rupert Lover or the other rhr shipper are you all prepared if Harry Hermione does end up with each other?

no not that one, its a latest interview. something in Ruperts line, not an effective finish. I'll search.
Of course we are prepared. We pretty much have to be prepared for anything since we really don't know what is going to happen in the future books. Hell, as far as we know JKR might kill someone off again(PLEASE DON'T!), and I know JKR wont, you don't have to tell me, but I am just trying to say anything might happen and we got to be prepared for anything.

Rowling does like to suprise us all, that so far is true; but it's plot-wise, not relationships.

I remember someone saying:
Ron and Hermione do like each other, they just hide their feelings.
Ron does hide his feelings, not very good at it though. Hermione on the other hand generally doesn't feel the same way.
If you think about these kind of situations; it's the boys who usually have a "funny way of showing it", not the girls. And seeing how Hermione's 15, she's obviously mature enough to express her feelings, not hide them.
THis is a quote from a website on HP and the HBP
"The most obvious thing in the world is that at some point in time Ginny and Harry are going to start dating. Clues are repeatedly dropped throughout the entire 5th book that points to this."
I think that is just a rumor site though... but hey, has anyone seen the clues this person or people are talking about?
Originally posted by dark1365Remember what JKR said; that Harry will open his eyes and see what he was looking for was in front of him the entire time. The only girl that's ever been there "the whole time" for him is Hermione. So we can at least assume the fact that he starts liking Hermione.
Yep. I'm totally with you on that one. After what happened in the Department of Mysteries last year it seems natural for Harry to realize Hermione's importance in his life and develop/realize deeper feelings for her. It seems clear to me that hermione is the only female in the series who would be a perfect match for Harry, as someone said earlier in the thread, she's the female lead. We've read 5 books watching her as the female lead, the most important girl in Harry's life. It would be a compete disaster if all the sudden someone like Ginny or Luna was thrown into a relationship with Harry and take over hermione's lead. It would screw up the formula of the books and wouldn't be consistiant at all.
Well, at first glance I guess it is a bit obvious, but whats wrong with the obvious? But as we all know, there are a lot of people out there who think it's obvious that Ron and Hermione are going to be together, and to them that is obvious. After GOF is seemed to become "obvious" to a lot of people that ron and hermione were an item. I think if harry and hermione ended up together it might be the typical hero story, but i don't see anything wrong with that. They fit each other perfectly.
Heh. Oh, here is a quote from OoP.
"'Hi,' Ginny said uncertainly. 'We recognized Harry's voice- what are you yelling about?'
'Never you mind,' said Harry roughly.
Ginny raised her eyebrows.
'There is no need to take that tone with me,' she said coolly. 'I was only wondering whether I could help.'"
You see, Ginny says SHE wanted to help Harry, she didn't say the others that come in with her wanted to help. And she wants to help him, she likes him, we can see it, but Harry, at the time, was too angry at the moment to notice. Harry needs to open his mind, stop pushing everyone away from him, and see that Ginny likes him!
This was posted on mugglenet, it's a quote from the guy that does the audio recordings of the harry potter books. I really don't think there's any spoilers in here, but it's just interesting:
Alas, I was less successful wheedling any information about the new Harry Potter from the book’s editor, Arthur Levine. “There’s a new character named Maclaggen,” he said, and spelled the name. And ...? And nothing. Levine clammed up. Jim Dale had mentioned yesterday that somebody dies. True? “I can neither confirm nor deny.” Does Harry have a girlfriend? “I can’t say ... He’s definitely growing up in all areas of his life.” Later, he said he didn’t experience this book to be as dark as the last, though the overall arc of the series is that the “world is getting more pernicious (dangerous).” This one, he said, “has more romance in general.” And then he and marketing VP Jennifer Pasanen, who was sitting in, started humming “Love is in the air.” Well, it’s a clue. <--
I thought it was really exciting that 'love is in the air" haha. I'm hoping that means all us shippers are going to get some answers come july! 😱
Anyway, that quote about Ginny and Harry, the problem is that that was probably the first time they had spoken throughout the whole book. They don't have a solid enough relationship to make it believable for me. There are hundreds of quotes like that with Hermione.Plus, they even said in OOTP that Ginny was over Harry, that's why she was able to talk to him now.
