Of all the Potter kids, she is least like the book character who was homely, heavy and blind without her glasses.
she wasn’t homely in the book, just an awkward 11 year old at the start with frizzy hair and oddly spaced teeth (fixed by her dentist parents). and she’s never described wearing glasses.
but watson is too pretty to play hermione, not that I’m going to complain though.
So she’s really a rip-off of Velma?
I don’t think Rowling ever said homely or heavy.
She did have bushy hair, was bossy and brilliant. Watson played her in the first movie, and played her well.
After that, Watson just did... whatever. But it isn’t Hermione anymore. And too nasal.
Huh?
She had frizzy hair and odd teeth.
Her Muggle parents were dentists and wanted to give her braces but she was put under a spell that made her teeth grow in Goblet of Fire, just before the Dance. Her teeth were fixed at that time. It was her Cinderella moment.
They never mentioned her being heavy. Harry is blind without his glasses.
Perhaps you are thinking of Moaning Mertle.
