"i would really like to see Harry and Hermione end up together but it would be semi-weird and very cliche, they'll probably end up being very close companions for the rest of their lives, however long that may be. "
I really don't see this happening, and really, I'm glad. Harry and Hermione might make good friends...but I don't really think they'd beable to stand eachother for that long in that sort of way.(I know you'll say 'but Ron and Hermione could?" and my answer to that is YES, I think they could, if they realize that they like eachother in more than a friend way) They've never really shown any kind of feeling towards eachother beyond friendship, and really I'm glad about it.
Not that I think, I would rather Harry found someone else--instead of Ginny OR Cho. Someone new, someone new! There are things about but girls I don't like, and I think someone else could be better...
That's just my opinion, though.
P.S. I'm excited to see the development of anything 'romantic' in the movie. I think Ron is so adorable!
Now, if only he were a little older...
