Musings...

I just realised something.

Those people who decided upon the makeup and clothing ect of the cat Harry Potter?

WHY did you decide to make Hermione all pretty?

I mean, at least she was ICONIC before. We could RELATE to her. She was the hope for all of us who don’t feel pretty enough, don’t feel popular enough, or even all that likeable- she made it possible for us to say:

“You know what? Maybe i’m not good enough for you, but FUCK YOU because one day, i’ll be a WITCH”

Now she’s just gone over the fence, into the land of pretty people, where she has been welcomed with open arms….
Yes...I know Emma Watson can't help it that she is incredibly beautiful. But it till feels somewhat like betrayal to me.

I miss being able to identify with Hermione.
Now, from being brave, and goodhearted, and an activist, and intelligent, and loyal, the character of Hermione will be remembered simply as A Pretty Girl.

I haven’t felt this dissillusioned since I found out that Imtiaz Dharker was straight, that Roald Dahl was dead, and that the tomatoe is really a fruit…
