I haven’t actually watched AVPM the whole way through just yet (haven’t found the time), but I’ll post my thoughts about it when I do.
So far, I like it, since it pokes fun at the way the fandom perceives him. Also, I like how many BROTP moments him and Harry get.
Thanks for the ask, anon!
Ron Weasley’s portrayal?
His b(romance) with Harry
Getting background music every time he came on stage.
His romance with Hermione.
His rivalry with Draco
His bromance with Snape.
Basically the entire, “Sidekick,” performance.
“That’s Lavender Brown! RACIST SISTER!”
“I see myself in Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. Hermione’s turning into a blueberry and I want to eat her.”
Just look at this…
Or maybe this?
Or how about this?
Just look at these cuties…
the love of my life with the love of his life…
This precious unicorn…
And this pretty much sums up Ron…
Joey Richter is an angel on planet earth and anything that he does is perfection. Therefore, his portrayal of Ron Weasley is perfection. Minus the casual sexism in Starkid, starkid!ron was perfect.
Was the casual sexism supposed to be ironic? Or was it just a product of the time it was made (the late 2000s/early 2010s)?
What kind of messed-up universe are we living in when the kiss scene between Ron and Hermione in the musical-comedy parody makes more narrative sense than the kiss scene in the film series?
Harry: And that’s the plan.
Ron: IT’S GONNA BE TOTALLY AWESOME!
Hermione: Ron, have you been watching ‘A Very Potter Musical’ again?
Ron (hiding a giant Hershey’s bar behind his back): No…
I’ll cast some spells with the flick of my wand. Defeat the Dark Arts, yeah, bring it on and do it all with my best friend, Ron. ‘Cause together we’re totally awesome. Yeah, ‘cause together we’re totally awesome!

Bill: Fleur is just amazing.
Percy: Audrey is wonderful.
Fred and George: Lee Jordan/girls are hot!
Ron: Hermione is just… out of this world.
Ginny: I love Harry so much.
Charlie: …
Charlie: …
Charlie: … DRAGONS!
Ron Weasley: (points out that Hermione- being a girl- isn’t technically allowed in the boys dormitory)
Ron Weasley: (is physically irritated by Hermione’s crush on Lockhart)
Ron Weasley: (Is shocked and a little terrified when Hermione hugs him)
HP fandom: Ron clearly didn’t realise Hermione was a girl until the Yule Ball.
