'HARRY POTTER + THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN director ALFONSO CUARON was so impressed with young actress EMMA WATSON while filming the new Potter movie he's desperate to work with her again.
The Mexican moviemaker was stunned with the 14-year-old's acting skills and is looking for projects, on which to work with her again.
He says, "She could have a big career. She's growing up so beautifully. I'd love to work with her again, away from Harry Potter.
"She listens intensely, and there's an intelligence and warmth about her." '
i read that over mugglenet.com
😘
She could have a big career. She's growing up so beautifully. I'd love to work with her again, away from Harry Potter.
Is it just me or does that sound slightly disturbing - it's like he's already thinking of more adult roles for her later on. Especially since she's the youngest of the trio it just sounds strange. Plus the whole growing up so beautifully sounds abit premature, she's only 14 and it sounds like he means it as growing into a lady which she's far off from it - not until she's 16 will her looks really start changing (I don't mean puberty). 'Away from Harry Potter' and into what? Roles that aren't so fantastical and based on childhood, more romantic roles perhaps? What about the other kids in the movie, it's kind of unfair to singe her out/show preference when you are the director.
Ack, I know I sound aggro but something about it when I read it just didn't feel right. You all probably think I'm over reacting - what can I say? Spider Sense 😖hifty:
I agree *nods*
Alfonso Cuaron has directed some sexy/erotic movies before like "Y Tu Mama Tambien."... When I read what Cuaron has said about Emma Watson, I was disturbed quite a bit ^^; I mean, obviously Emma is really pretty and fit... but to actually say "wanting to work with her because she's growing up SO beautifully..." Tsk, tsk... LOL!

she never was that good in acting like hermione. in the first movie she tried waaaaaaay 2 hard 2 b bossy. in movie 2, she wasnt bossy enough. now in 3 she looks like a preppy! plus, lately i think the director is doing some things wrong with this movie...he said he wanted to give the actors more freedom...it seems fair but that does not include clothes. i mean daniel and rupert look like what they should look like but emma took things 2 far...and with the whole acting future, i dont know. she seems 2 base her characters off of her and not how the director wrote it or the author wrote it. the hair...i guess i could go either way. i mean yah, it needs 2 b bushy but she's growing up and it cant remain bushy forever. i mean, i still think it should b. the second movie, her hair wasnt that bushy either. i think emma should really sit down and think, what would hermione do, act, say, tone of voice, react, what body language would she use, what should she wear 4 this situation? go into deep details. thats what really actying is all about. u cant b u, u have 2 b that person on the script.

Phew I'm glad it's not just me! I never knew what he directed before so I wasn't sure but it just didn't sound right. I mean the whole growing up so beautifully and wanting to work with her away from Harry Potter in the same sentence just sounded like he could already see her in more adult roles which is a strange thing to think for a girl so young! Imagining what she could do when she's grown up in comparison to her now is weird, it's like jeez take a step back dude!
True *nods*... Emma is ruining Hermoine.
1st movie: Emma tried too hard
2nd movie: She was too nice and friendly with Harry and Ron... and Emma actually said "she tones it down a bit"... but HELLO... in the 2nd book, Hermoine was still bossy and nagging...
3rd movie: DEFINITELY too preppy!! Hermoine is suppose to be bossy... She's so NOT suppose to be a preppy, snobbish, popular little witch as Emma portrays her! When I watched the trailer where Ron and Hermoine was arguing over who killed Scabbers, Emma looks like she's snobbish... I mean, in the book, isn't Hermoine supposed to be a little upset about the whole cat/rat situation?! Like there was tears in her eyes or something (as it said in the book)... She was supposed to be upset and also sad that Ron is not speaking to her because Ron accused Crookshanks of killing Scabbers.... But in the trailer, all I saw in the fight was Emma Watson being snobby... That's not Hermoine!! That's Emma!
I'm not hating Emma Watson... She's really pretty! But she needs to relate to her characters in order to act them. ^^;
Hmm I always thought that she over acted in number 2 and over annunciated or concentrated too much on her vocals in number 1 which was understanable I guess since she'd never acted before. In number 2 it seemed like she was comfortable with the accent but over acted in actions and expressions but yes wasn't as high strung as before. But hey, she's still really young and it's very rare that child actors/tresses can act as flawlessly as Kisrten Dunst did in Interview with a Vampire for example 😉
Have you watched "Y Tu Mama Tambien"? You should watch it to get the "odd feeling" I was feeling ^^; It's about these 2 boys having sex with this older woman.. On the way, these 2 boys argue who gets the woman... and in the end, they end up having threesome... LOL.. And the 2 boys ended up having sex with each other... I've watched it twice.. It was quite good actually, if you don't focus on the sex scene, but focus instead on the script... It's funny and entertaining (not just sexually) =)
Anyways, when I read what Cuaron has to say about Emma... Y Tu Mama Tambien comes to my mind (the plot about 2 boys and 1 girl) LOL... Emma, Rupert, Daniel... LOL!!! Tsk, tsk...

😖 goodness me, when you say two boys... how old were their characters?
He also directed A Little Princess and The Secret garden I think which means that he can obviously make children's fantasy but still... I just hope he doesn't make more comments like that because looking at a child and seeing her future career is one thing and fine but if it has any sexual context like imagining her as a 17 year old in teen raunch or romantic roles iis just not right and has a level of perversion there.

I know, she was sooo impressive - so much so that many people were saying that she was really an adult just a midget because they couldn't comprehend that she was actually a child. I wish she would do more deep and challenging roles like that, that was an acadamy award winning performance imo.
Glad you agree PunkyHermy! 😄 It definitely can't be easy to be on par with such high calibre actors like that in every scene with you without being outdone but she never was, she was always amazing. Plus to think that Antonio and Christian were in it too it's just wow.
and Shanie, hmm if they were around 18 well at least it's legal but yeah.... 😑
Ooh I haven't seen Interview with a Vampire. I want to! And of course Y Tu Mama Tambien..with forwarded sex scenes or something.
I agree for the most part on Emma's acting...she's always gotten something or another wrong. Now, yeah, all this hugging with Ron. Don't get me wrong, I'm a total R/H shipper, but none of this freakin happened in the book! So now she's all crying on ROn's shoulder after they found Scabbers, and teary eyed during the fights...um-no way. Hermione's MAD, not sad.
Anyway, we're just perfectionist fans, and we can't do anything about our movies being ruined. Just revel in what we have, I guess....maybe make a remake of all of them when we're older! ✅
