Okay.
So I'm watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer Stone and I noticed something odd about the Golden Trio before they were friends (mostly before Harry and Ron let Hermione hang out with them).
In the book, we don't hear or see Hermione doing anything but answering questions, crying, studying, and crying usually because Ron has no tact whatsoever. It isn't until Halloween that these three come together and become one entity. Before that, Hermione is a shadow in the background to make fun of for her nerdiness.
In the movie, however, Hermione is leaning in and listening to Harry read about the break in at Gringotts. She also elbows Harry in their first Potion class to get him to pay attention. She's also the one who bravely approaches the boys to show them the trophy case with Harry's dad's Quidditch award.
Clearly, movie Hermione is much more present and assertive. There really isn't any reason for this because Ron is still making fun of her and upsetting her. So why change?
No really, why?
I want to know.
