Some fans say that Snape is sexy. He isn't; Alan Rickman is.
Harry<->Hermione ships- Daniel Radcliff/ Emma Watson: great chemistry, Radcliff/ Bonnie Wright: zero chemistry. The most romantic scene in HBP film is Harry comforting Hermione on the stairs. Harry and Ginny kissing is cold.
Ron's speech patterns are sharp and wordy, but re-reading the books now I get a mental image of them being a bit dozy, like Rupert Grint's. He was matching Ron's quick speech in the first 2 films, but then the scripts started to match his.
Even Jo seems to have been influenced a bit. By GoF, I had the impression that Draco was supposed to top out at about 5'6". During CoS filming, Tom Felton shot up a bit more than his age group, and at the end of HBP, Jo uses the word tall to describe Draco. Has anyone else had similar impressions?
