Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger's Harry Potter Romance
In Harry Potter and the Lalf Blood Prince, our little heroes Harry, Ron and Hermione are growing up. Wipe that tear from your eye, this is a good thing. The characters we've known and loved since we met them as prepubescent first-year Hogwarts students are now teenagers who've seen more wizard battles than any Defense Against the Dark Arts class could have prepared them for (good thing Harry took it upon himself to teach his fellow pupils a few tricks).

Billions of fans know the 'Potter' story; we've read the books. So it's not plot surprises that draw us to the 'Harry Potter' movies, it's being able to watch these actors, particularly Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, bring the story to life on screen, and an important part of this film's plot involves the growing romantic tension between Ron and Hermione.

We know that these three best pals (plus Ron's little sister, Ginny, who's maturing too!) will soon learn about that other battlefield -- you know, love -- and that Ron and Hermione will be taking the first swings in that conflict zone.

We can't wait to see Ron and Hermione's budding romance in 'Half Blood Prince' -- how about you? Are you happy with the way the movies are handling the developing 'Harry Potter' romances? Do you think Rupert Grint and Emma Watson have good on-screen chemistry as Ron and Hermione?

Tell us what you think about the young love in 'Harry Potter.
