Real hermione dance. Not made up by movies

“Come and dance,” Ron added abruptly to Hermione.

She looked taken aback, but pleased too, and got up. They vanished together into the growing throng on the dance floor.

“Ah, they are together now?” asked Krum, momentarily distracted.

“Er— sort of,” said Harry.

Just Ow. Seriously Ow. I don't know about you but I really can't feel the love in the air tonight.

I love romione, I really do. But—

Ron, who yelped and covered his face with his hands, but the birds attacked, pecking and clawing at every bit of flesh they could reach.

“Gerremoffme!” he yelled, but with one last look of vindictive fury, Hermione wrenched open the door and disappeared through it.

just read these paragraphs, it's not a harmless thing she does, the birds attack Ron — they hurt him. And honestly, this is when she has a crush on him... Hermione really pisses me off in this scene because what kind of a person attacks their crushes with a bird when they start going out with someone else?

Ron was genuinely having a good time with Lavender, and obviously this is an act of jealously and really, I don't get it. At all. I don't get how Hermione goes ahead and blames Ron for not returning her feelings and not realising that he does, infact, not owe her feelings. It's even worse when you think about it like this — 1) she openly kisses Krum, 2) she writes to Krum infront of Ron but now that Ron's the one having fun and spending time with someone else she's mad.

What's worse is Ron was expecting something like this, because this is the line we get before hermione attacks him with the birds —

‘Harry glanced at Ron, who was looking relieved that nothing worse had happened.’

Reading this scene more and more is now putting me in a world of hurt, I can actually feel the pain down my damn spine.

And the fact the chapter ends with Harry hearing Hermione sob...no Ron's pain can't be addressed, we can't see how Ron's state was after getting freed from the birds. also adding that line as closing was a choice. A choice that icks me out because it really is giving “hurting you hurts me more” vibes and I'm not here for it.

A lot of criticism of movie Hermione is weird because they like objectively realize that her character and personality is completely different and that’s not a good thing but are then like “it’s the stupid Strong Female Characters thing Hollywood loves(this criticism was more common a few years ago but still)” or “this is because of feminism.” Lmao, you really think that it’s somehow “feminist” or showing some “bias towards women” for the main female character in a series to have her personality neutered and made more palatable to make her more likable to the masses. meanwhile a major male characters get to bully his students but still be acknowledged as being complex but she isn’t allowed be stubborn or an asshole or not always right all the time. Ok. Sure bestie.

So wait, if they determined to be accurate to the books in the Harry Potter reboot...does that include the 'its fine to enslave Elf's they fine with it!' bullshit plot??? Because if they cast anyone of color for Hermione....

BARBIE SPOILERS. if you have not seen it and you don't want spoilers, just skip over this. Unless you would like some prior warning for it. :)

This is honestly the only summery of the Barbie movie I can give without going into a giant rant:

Spoiler: Yes. They pushed both. I just couldn't get the other meme to work.

dang, I have a feeling this is going to garner quite a bit of hate, but as a disclaimer before I go into what I will try to keep a tiny rant-- I understand there are people who did like it and I want to like it, because it's you know, it's Barbie and the old movies were wonderful, but... the movie made itself irredeemable to me.

Yes, it was satire, but it was honestly hard to tell what was satire and what they proclaimed was truth. I hated it. Every moment I spent in the theater I wanted to leave it.

why was how they broke the brainwashing reminding women how mistreated they are? Like. HOW. DOES. THAT. FIX. ANYTHING? was it satisfying for a bit? admittedly yes, the initial rant the mom gave was satisfying.... and then they dragged out the bit and it was just like "what on earth is this?" why is this what unbrainwashes them?

Also, I know people are going to get onto the "well they were white so that explains everything" No. no it does not.

Also everything they brought up they did not go deep into. like Ken being hurt by the Patriarchy too. they spent about five minutes (if that) on it and then were like "yay! problem solved, it's barbie land again." Also mental health. Was handled VERY poorly. it's not a joke. as someone who deals with mental health struggles on the daily I did not appreciate how they presented it.

The "only baby dolls" thing. This should not have made me hate this movie so much because it's (MAYBE???) satire. But still. They have not been the only doll to exist ever.

This movie hated both genders equally but tried to make it seem like they loved women.

Also. I hated the extremes they went to in the real world. Not every man is Evil. there are some that definitely should not be allowed around women or other people yes, but not all of them are evil. And not all women are good either.

No one, the barbie movie: women are so mistreated, woah is us!

Also the barbie movie: eck! we're so powerful we can't stand it!

But mostly, I just hated it because I was promised a happy movie of Barbie having a midlife crisis and Ken coming along for the ride and instead it was like Tik tok. in movie form.

This movie did not make me feel anymore comfortable with my gender. if anything it made me feel worse. I left the theater feeling like I should have been empowered, but I just felt gross. Overall, this is probably the last post I will ever make for this movie because I want it to fade into the background and be ignored. The worst insult I could give this movie is ignoring it's existence entirely.

Does anyone else miss when movies just had strong CHARACTERS instead of it being a strong gender? like it wasn't "LOOK A FEMALE WHO IS A CHARACTER!!!" and "oh, a guy character, gross." Why does it have to be so extreme? Like I appreciate there are more female protagonists out there but I also miss when they weren't all hot headed, arrogant, jerks, and when they were FEMININE. like. what. is wrong. with. being soft??? also I miss smart male protagonists. and male protagonists in general who were good characters not comic relief. (unrelated, but semi related note: I will never forgive the Harry Potter Movies for what they did to Ron to make Hermione smart. Ron is SMART TOO. My boy deserved better!)Like there was a while there where women and men both had equal roles in stories and they were good because they were good characters and now... it's just politics. and I'm sick of it.

I don't know what Barbie was supposed to be but it was not what I wanted to see when I went to see it. I had low expectations, but somehow, it failed them. failed them hard. Honestly, I don't know how anyone likes it, and I'm still to angry at it to look for reasons why people did. Maybe in a few years after my anger at what this movie was actually about subsides.

In conclusion, I finally remembered why I don't go see movies anymore. I want a story, not a message. Barbie provided a message. a very dark undertone that hid under "discover yourself and your role in the world :)"

P.S. If you liked Barbie and wish to tear me to shreds, please remember I was not the target audience, I did not "get it" as those in the target audience did.

Was I the only one to be deeply disappointed when the GOF movie came out and Beauxbatons Academy of Magic was an all girl school? It was bad enough that the worst champion (performance/point wise) was a woman, now they had to make it so that she wasn’t even the best at a mixed school - no she only ever beat a bunch of girls. Merlin forbid she was going to be better than a man …

Ron-I would die for her- Weasley

“Take these prisoners down to the cellar, Greyback.”

“Wait,” said Bellatrix sharply.

“All except. . . . except for the Mudblood.” Greyback gave a grunt of pleasure.

“No!” shouted Ron. “You can have me, keep me!”

Bellatrix hit him across the face: the blow echoed around the room.

“If she dies under questioning, I’ll take you next,” she said.

I love the song O Children by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds and yes I know it from Deathly Hallows part one but outside of that it's such a good song. It's about bittersweet death and Orpheus and Eurydice and the song just. Songs so good

And I WILL fight any self righteous ex Harry Potter fan that tries to pull some SHIT that it's about the Holocaust (and therefore should not have been used in the movie which I don't care about the artisy agreed to it so. Whatever. He got paid) IT'S FUCKING NOT you DUMB PIECE OF SHIT WITH NO MEDIA LITERACY show me a source that says this that's not some Harry Potter fan's Tumblr post from 2011. Show me it. Show me an interview with the artist. Show me exactly why you think it's about the Holocaust. Oh, trains leading to death? Because Harry Potter is a thinly veiled and pathetic attempt at WWII parallels? (and if we're going by that do you have a deathly hallows tattoo because if you're so 1:1 about this. you do know the deathly hallows is her fucking. symbolic equivalent to you-know-what. Oh that's offensive? YOU DON'T THINK???)

Because HAVE YOU WVER HEARD OF POETIC IMAGERY IN YOUR DAMN LIFE how could you have ever called yourself a Harry Potter fan without the basic ability to understand sometimes things are not LITERAL. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

I will never tire of saying that Steve Kloves is a born Ron Weasley hater. It's just a deleted scene and if I don't add it for real it's because I'm sure someone must have said to him; "Hey man, don't you think you've already ridiculed and bashed the Ron Weasley character so much in all the movies, making up scenes, stealing Ron's lines to give to others.

And JKR who supposedly has a strong character let a screenwriter do whatever he wants.

I will never understand JKR, making a character that is one of the main characters but never knew how to love and protect on the big screen or giving interviews. Writers are jealous of the characters they create, but she completely abandoned him during all the filming of HP.

Why do I ship Harmione you may ask? Antis would say it’s only because of movie propaganda (which is false because people were shipping Harmione before the movies even came out.) and I haven’t even watched the movies apart from the first one. So here are my favourite Harmione book moments that made me ship it!!!

Exhibit 1: First, for those who say that Harry HATES spending time with Hermione (from a quote that was taken out if context.)

There are many instances where they joke around and have fun. They enjoy spending time with each other. It’s literally describes that her face ‘shines with glee at the prospect of spending more time with Harry. She doesn’t do a jig often or make fun of teachers.

Exhibit 2: She comforts him in a way… as she ‘kisses him on the cheek’

She had never done it before to Ron either at this point. And they’re not shy about physical intimacy

Exhibit 3:

Wowww, so he finds her so beautiful that it’s LITERALLY JAW DROPPING.

There could be attraction there. Harry OBVIOUSLY doesn’t find Hermione unattractive.

And neither does Hermione

“Oh, come on, said Hermione suddenly impatient… frankly you’ve never been more fanciable.”

She acts like Harry being fanciable is the most obvious thing ever.

Exhibit 4: He was stunned to silence when he complimented her. He couldn’t believe that she thought his words were worth memorising. He takes her compliments in high regard.

He, of course thinks highly of her and compliments her as such too

Again she seems so pleased. ( gleamed and radiant. Common synonyms when she’s around him).

Exhibit 5: This whole scene speaks for itself

And why was Hermione beaming at HARRY the moment the narration says ‘bonded for life.’

And lastly

Probably the most heartfelt, romantic and intimate moment they had.

Hermione ALONE shares Harry’s most significant moments of emotional development in the series twice. Once when his discovers his father’s connection to his patronus and at his parents grave side where he comes to term with their deaths. Their causal touches lingering around their waist…

What would you say are your more controversial opinions about the hp characters?

ohhhh okayyy. i feel like my opinions on a lot of the characters aren’t controversial because i dont feel super strongly towards anyone in any negative light but here are some i could think of at the top of my head:

i’m glad the malfoys faced more extreme backlash after the second wizarding war. a lot of people in the fandom seem to be very sympathetic towards draco and scorpius for getting dogpiled with the brunt of it (which yeah, it sucks, especially for scorpius) but the prejudice makes complete make sense to me. if i was someone who didn’t know scorpius’ character, and had someone from my family get killed in the second war due to death eaters or something— seeing the malfoys still be wealthy and walk around freely without any jailtime, i would be bitter too. they’re hated on but they’re still one of the richest families ever, so they’ll live LOL

another anon has asked about this and i haven’t responded to them yet but when i do i will link it here for my reasons. basically: the best character in the cursed child is harry potter. i think the way they wrote his character and ptsd carried the play. it was def his story, not albus’.

i do think dumbledore has some aspects of him that may be considered morally gray, but mostly i dont think he is. he does everything for the good of the world, and his complete selflessness leads him to sacrifice anything for it— even himself and the people he loves, when necessary. i completely understand why people wouldn’t agree with his methods though.

james potter isn’t a sunshine character he’s a dickhead. fans of him made him a golden retriever character to be more palatable for modern times. i like him the way he is: an asshole and then less of an asshole 👍 this is what true stanning looks like

pansy parkinson is racist and out of all the female side characters, developing HER is so questionable from fandom

harry had questionable descriptions about a lot of male characters to make people think he could be a little 🏳️‍🌈 there was bill, there was sirius, there was cedric. but draco is not a part of that list. harry was not feeling draco whatsoever throughout the series but drarry shippers cling to that one ‘obsessed’ line

furthermore, harry rejecting draco’s offer of friendship wasn’t a sad or a ‘what if’ scene. draco was being a classist piece of shit and harry didnt want to fuck with that, there isnt any way in any timeline he wouldve accepted draco’s friendship.

slytherin sucks just generally lol. people want so bad to pluck anti-heroes out of a series that was written specifically with the mind to make all the characters suck.

hermione and ron’s drama isn’t as toxic as people make it out to be. yes, this includes the time hermione sent birds after him. people act like its the end of the world but she was tackling puberty and the end of society soooo i give her a pass to tweak out.

mostly every harry potter character has horrific names. like literally mostly everyone. even the name harry potter 🙁

movie romione wasn’t that bad LOL

severus snape’s ‘redemption’ or whatever was so ass. he bullies kids for five years and then everything is chill because… true love? on harry’s mum? are you kidding me 💀

weasley family angst goes hard but people (especially percy stans and some ron&ginny stans) acting like they’re the most toxic family to walk the earth make me want to rip my hair out and eat it. molly loves her kids guys shes not evil. jesus.

genuinely trying to think of more but i can’t right now…. maybe i will reblog and add to it. i feel like most of my opinions aren’t that controversial though 😭

Book Hermione working hard was such an important aspect not just of her character but of teaching us that great results often require hard work! You can aspire to become a book Hermione (if you want to), but movie Hermione is something you have to be born as. What kind of message is that to send children?

the difference between Harry and Hermione isn’t really that Harry is more creative than her, it’s that Harry is naturally talented at the things he’s good at but Hermione is good at what she’s good at because she’s a very hard worker. This is not a bad thing, and it doesn’t mean that Harry’s lazy, I just think Hermione puts in so much effort into what she does. I think this is something the movies definitely get very wrong about her, Movie!Hermione is a genius without effort, but Book!Hermione is always working her ass off(she needs a break tbh)

Antis : I wish Zutaran just accept the fact of the show that they're not canon!!

How boring it would be to just accept what the show shows. Isn't the reason why ATLA, TLOK and their universes still exist and talked about today because of that analysis and criticism?

Accepting canon for granted would just make the show stop being talked about decades ago after the season ended. Because, what else is there to discuss?

How boring!

I ship Ron and Hermione, they're canon and have two children!

But I still criticize the movie for not showing their relationship development as well as in the novel.

Geez, I'm Romione shipper, but I don't mind Dramione more popular than canon.

I've never yapping Dramione shippers like the ATLA fandom yapping Zutara shippers!

I've never go to their fanart and touting, "Romione is canon, accept that!!"

These two characters even have no relationship development in both the novel nor the movie, unlike Zutara! But, I still fine with that.
