i think that it if fine. emma is a main character too and loved by people as much as dan probabaly is. i think that it is totally fair.
danrad23
i think that every one loves both equally if not the same!
PansyParkinson
maybe the other 2 were asked to join her but they didnt want to... just a suggestion

Maybe the City of London couldn't afford the fees for all three..... wink.gif

Aw, I'm so cynical, aren't I? tongue.gif

I guess it was more that Dan and Rupert were too involved with GoF filming, perhaps...GoF is pretty Hermione-light really, isn't it? Overall....you know.....(seeing as how we know they've cut most of the SPEW storyline out)

You know, I really love it when people precede their comments with, 'Not to be rude,' or 'Not to be offensive or anything,'.....because usually that's exactly what they're about to be.

Please watch the way you express yourself. Be nice, or you're liable to make me very cross.

Not advisable.

Just like the hulk, you won't like me when I'm angry.

I like that Emma is getting more attention than she used to! biggrin.gif

Maybe he was busy and she wasn't

yeah that's her home town and i suppose they asked her to turn them on there being that is where she is from!
Oliver (D69)
Right...

1, people from the home town only turn the lights on!! And she is well known.

2, How do you know dan wasnt busy.

3, She is still a actor in HP so its ok with me.

4, Is the person who started this. A Emma/hater?
Jara
Maybe she's to get some attention too? Or, Daniel and Rupert had a lot of other stuff to do..?
Appropriatetina
I thought Rupert should've done it because he has less fame out of the entire trio. He needs more of it than the others.

hey, is this a fact or just something youre thinking? cos emma said once the spice girls had done it too.. theyre not from oxford are they tongue.gif ?
Anyways, whats the problem with Emma? She's cool blink.gif

Yay I just learned quoting biggrin.gif

sorry i know i sound a bit stupid.. but what are the oxford lights?? sorry i guess its a london thing or something i dont know...really sorry... but could some one please explain what the oxford lights are.. thank you alot!!

I'm not a fan of Emma and I also think that Dan should have done it. They're turning Emma in to this main character, which she isn't as she's supposed to be a sidekick. rolleyes.gif

I feel stupid too...I have no idea what they are either.
I'm guessing that it's a city like New York...that never turns out the lights or something.

Anyway, who really cares if it was Emma and not Dan? Dan's done other stuff that Emma hasn't. Even though Hermione may have the second main role in HP, that doesn't mean that Dan should do everything, Emma works just as hard (and Rupert) as Dan does and deserves credit too.
Whoa...I'm defending Emma Watson.
silencio
Oxfordshire is her home town, she should be a right person to do that job. I mean why would oxford people want a london boy to turn their light? No matter how famous he is, Emma is the most famous in her own home. (of course).

First of all....why does it matter? She's a main character in HP. She's great. Why shouldn't she light them? Besides, it does make sense having her do it, seeing as how she lives there.

And...they could've asked Dan and Rupert, who could've been busy or just not interested.
_just_cant_resist_harry_potter_
[B]Well, I think that Dan (as much as i love him) should have been the last person of the trio asked to do it! He gets to do enough cool stuff as it is. Yes, i know...he's the "main character" but does that mean he should get to do EVERYTHING?¿?¿?¿ I think it was a good choice to choose Emma to do it seeing as she lives there. And as much sense as it made to have her do it a part of me wishes Rupert would have done it. I think he is the least popular of the three. He could have used that to try and catch himself up with Emma and Dan. All and all I have absolutely no problem with Emma doing it. She did a fine job! smile.gif

Amen to that! biggrin.gif tongue.gif
gryffin_hauz_88
Well, just like what Resilda and DracoLoverTF said, I'm also feeling a bit stupid because of this Oxford thing. But as what I've read from the past post, I think, it doesn't matter if it's Emma or Dan or Rupert. Does this Oxford light's motive is about Harry Potter? I believe that even if it's not them, I think, it doesn't matter. And maybe, they didn't invite Dan and Rupert. I hope I help you with this. biggrin.gif

I would be great fo Emma to do it but personally I would like to see Dan do it but thats only because I fancy the Quiddich robes off him.*blushes* Go Emma! biggrin.gif

Could someone pleas explain what these Oxfordlight-thingies are? Is it lighting the lights in some giant Christmas-tree or something?

As for Emma doing it instead of Dan I agree with most of you. What does it matter, Hermione is a main character as well as Harry is. So I don't really see a problem here... I think that Rupert does deserve more attention, since I've never read anything about him doing such things, or is that just me?

I agree, Emma is the coolest of the three, and yet i know some people who don't know that "hermione" is emma sad.gif

She needs it more than Daniel or Rupert, everyone knows that "harry" and "ron" are them dry.gif sleep.gif

P.S. Does anyone think Hermione should continue talking to Krum? tongue.gif

Hermione is #1, Hermione is #1, Hermione is #1 cool.gif biggrin.gif tongue.gif laugh.gif smile.gif blink.gif rolleyes.gif

Honestly, Emma seems to have a much larger fan-base than Daniel

Chelsey_princess
You are right mate! smile.gif
Emma and Dan,both are main characters!Both are the best,Rupert too!
What I mean to say is that,I love both.wub.gif
But the book is HARRY POTTER and blah blah blah blah and NOT
HERMIONE GRANGER and blah blah blah balh!
You get me???????
I support you,anyway! blink.gif biggrin.gif

They probably asked her because they knew her better than Dan. I mean after all she does live there, and they probably just know more of her background.
Just the Droobles
They probably asked Emma because that is who they wanted to turn the lights on. What a thought. Maybe you don't like Emma but other people do. I'm aware the books are called Harry Potter, but Hermione/Emma is Harry's best bud, so why can't she turn on the lights? huh.gif Emma is an actor too, and just because Dan has the main role, doesn't mean Emma can't have some well earned spotlight as well. I like all three actors very much, but don't hate on Emma because she was probably invited to turn the lights on.
paolopaolo
i kinda like the idea that they chose emma. i like her better because dan is always seen everywhere. and its nice to see someone else share the spotlight.
marauder5
maybe Dan doesn't want to but she want, because I think if Dan wants that the person would be Dan rolleyes.gif
Violetta
Someone asked if this topic was created by an emma-hater. I guess so rolleyes.gif Well, I don't like emma too, umm, ok,ok I'll be honest - I hate her, that's why I have to respect all people who don't like her,but, sometimes they are so weird, I don't understand them...what's the difference who switches on xmas lights? rolleyes.gif Oxfordshire is emma's native town not Dan's. Honestly, you anti-fans sometimes write such stupid things...



MOD NOTE: Please stay respectful of other peoples posts!

i think she was free and Dan was buzy ,so she done it.m i rite? wub.gif

I disagree with you, I think it's just a case of personal taste but I don't think she is a particularly charismatic actress, especially when surrounded by some of the best actors in Britain.

They are just the Christmas lights for Oxford, like with London they always get a celebrity to turn them on. Emma lives in Oxford and goes to school there when she is in school, so she was chosen.
xXTonksXx
i think that its probably because she lives in oxford. like for example, i live in belfast an there was an ad on tv about who is doing it here this year and theyre two people from belfast, callum best and someone else, so personally i think its where they come from but maybe you're right, maybe dan and rupert were'nt free.
Nemon
I think both are great....

But i am a man (boy *lol*9 and thats the reason i thing, that emma is better, sweeter and more beautiful than dan. She is a good actress... a very good one.
wicked_witch
I actuall think Dan can act better than Emma, but hey're both great.
Spencer Potter
Actually, to be truthful, Emma has done a better job, lets remember this, Dan had acted in 3 shows before her and many other plays while Emma that have being her first ever movie/play or whatever. happy.gif
xXTonksXx
well yes i see your point Spencer Potter but it doesnt make daniel radcliffe a worse actor. I think theyre both equally good on what theyve done.
