Hermione's muggle parents are far removed from the main action of the story, so it's hard to fault the movies for sidelining Mrs. Granger.

Romilda Vane is cast squarely in the "vixen" role in the films. Worse still, she's a vixen who never even speaks. Still, I've got to give her props for going after the boy she wants (even if she essentially tries to drug him) and for fighting alongside her classmates in the Battle of Hogwarts.
In what little screentime she has, Angelina makes a name for herself as a skilled Quidditch player and witch who somehow sees through George Weasley's Peter Pan complex to notice his real value.

Madame Hooch all but disappears after Sorcerer's Stone, but never forget that she could fly circles around any 17-year-old boy on that Quidditch pitch.
