The Doctor wrote:Rupert was able to play the part well, despite Ron really getting crapped on by the movie writers. Ron was basically transformed into the comic relief character. In the books, while Hermione was the book smart one, she fell apart under pressure. Ron on the other hand was more pragmatic and good to have in a pinch. The films basically made Hermione both.
As for acting. He did great. I think he gets his best moments in the last 3 films though. Radcliffe tried his heart out, but he's just not that good an actor. Watson just stopped trying after the third film and just winged it.

Did you ever see teenagers in high-school wearing Sesame Street backpacks or the like? There's a minor trend in which people will wear something silly or uncool, presumably to prove that their own innate coolness transcends the things they wear. I used to see a variety of different variations of it, from bow-ties and flat-caps to merchandise and clothing from cartoons or kids shows.
Or possibly Grint is actually being sincere, which I guess would be pretty neat.

Yeah, I agree. That they put effort in expanding it and doing their own jokes to make it unique, other then just slapping ponies on and calling it a day, is why it's awesome.
While Applejack always has and always will be my favorite, I think this really hits the nail on the head
