The       article where she claims to have picked Klokes because of his "Emma is       my fav" comment is old fluff being rehashed as new fluff.              I have no doubt that Rowling = Hermione and I have less doubt that she       was thrilled with Emma's portrayal which won over the little girlies.       Not the quality, there wasn't much chance for freelance acting, but       what came across the screen.              > Draco, if you had not been kicked out of COS, Snitchseeker and other       > forums ;0) you might see that Emma is looked up to by this target       > audience. /This/ is what made HP the movies.

Bet she won't.       --       http://cc.st/Ron-Hermione-So-Wrong              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
