Goblet of Fire
Yes, I did see Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire this weekend.
In short, I think it's the best movie of the four. No, I haven't read the books yet. I'm sure I will one day, but not as yet.
A highlight of the film is Hermione at the ball. She's so fucking adorable I can't stand it. It's really too bad Harry and Ron are such typical boys. Coulda, shoulda, woulda. But too bad for them.
The special effects these days are getting better. While you know a lot of stuff is computer generated, the effects don't get in the way. I was glad for that.
I also liked that this story wasn't all neat and tidy. While you get reasonable resolution, it's also clear that not everything is right in the world. There were also a few glimpses into the back stories of some of the other characters which was nice and clearly leaves room to be explored in the future.
The Dark Arts curriculum and the pool of suitable instructors seem to be very problematic.
