HARRY POTTTEERRR

Edited later because I forgot to mention it: Was it just me who found it very strange that the Yule Ball was basically just a multi-culti pride festival? The Patil twins wearing traditional Indian garb, CHO CHANG BUSTING OUT THE CHINESE DRESS?! WHAT IS THIS?!?! WHAT?!?!?! IS?!?!?!? THISSS?!?!!



What would have been the problem with them wearing normal dresses?! SORRY BUTTTT at prom I did not see people wearing kimonos or togas or other such cultural attire. PERHAPS in the magical world, it is different. PERHAPS. BUT MOVING ON..

I thought this movie was probably the best of all of them, for obvious reasons. MUCH better acting from everyone, but Emma who I didn't think could open her mouth any larger to pronounce nonsensical words, but as the nature of her character dictates, she has proven me wrong again. UHM, let's start from the beginning.

EXCELLENT Portkey scene. I thought it was going to be really lame, like those low-budget Barney episodes where they have to like, step into a portal of rainbows to get to the North Pole. No, it wasn't anything like that, it was FANTASTICAL. And THANK GOODNESS the scenes of them falling weren't ridiculous, like those where you know they just had the actor lie down on a green floor and flail their arms and legs. They actually flipped around and over and adhered to the laws of gravity!! Except for Mister D and Mister W and Cedric who pranced down from the air.
Quidditch Match-- STELLARRR!!! That stadium looked totally kickass, and I liked how the little Potter group got the worst seats at the very top of the stadium where their chances of falling backwards and to their dooms is about 10 to the seven hundredth power higher. They cut out the house elves completely and the Veelas, but meh, didn't really hurt the movie.
Then DEATH EATERS UNITE!!!!! I liked how it wasn't really lame slow-mo where it is really cut up and lame and bad-looking, basically. Loved the gargantuan black cone hats.
Then blah blah blah, WE ARE AT HOGWARTS!!!!! And the other schools arrive in their various magically-inclined vessels. My fav part was when the Beauxbatons are arriving and they zoom in for a shot of their asses and Ron is over at the side, surpressing himself. And Hermione is leering at them in the background. So good.
Moody's class-- HILARIOUS. I loved how he turned around and launched that piece of chalk at Seamus. He was like 'I CAN HEAR ACROSS THE SCHOOL--' and then in my head, when he cannoned that chalk from his hand, it went PCHHAWWWWW and narrowly missed hitting Seamus. And Hermione, nearly having a breakdown over the spider.. UGH, I HAVE ALREADY HAD ENOUGH OF HER SOBBING AND SCREAMING. SHUT UP HERMIONE, SHUTTTTT UPPPPPPP.
Then the little Goblet of Fire and George and Fred getting shot across the room and fighting each other. Classic. BLAH BLAH BLAH, they pick out the names, everyone is whining b/c Harry has a habit of WHOOPING PEOPLE'S ASSES. Then Ron has a hissy fit and is all "PISS OFF BLOODY MATE pip pip lorry loft trolley petrol' and Harry takes off his glasses and has a nightmare. That scene where Ron and Harry are duking it out via Hermione, strange. The fact that Ginny tags along everywhere and only said about two words the entire movie-- stranger.
OH, and CHO. Okay, I know most of everybody thinks that she is the most gorgeous asian girl alive and is soooo beautiful and what not, but no, she is not that pretty. I SAID IT, I SAID IT!! Sure, she's got an okay-looking face, but my friends and I were all talking about how she is just 'cute' and not at all the gorgeous Chinese girl we'd imagined would capture the heart of the BOY WHO LIVED and Cedric, THE BOY WHO DID NOT LIVE. WHATEVER, WHAT-EV-ER.
Yule Ball, OMMFFGG SO FUNNY. The entire George and Fred asking out Angela(?). HAHAHA.. "You, me, dance?" WINK. Oh man. So Ron tries to pull the same bit on Hermione who of course, flies off the handle and runs off to sob some more. Then Snape backhands them both. Hehh hehh.
So first challenge, Harry walks into the stadium, thinking the Dragon has vanished, and then all of a sudden the Horntail shoots out of nowhere and is like "HEY BITCH, DON'T TAKE MY EGG". Then there is that excellent chase scene and the dragon smashes into that bridge and plummets to its doom and Harry swooshes back to grab the egg..
AND BACK AT THE COMMON ROOM, Harry is getting all cocky and Ron is like 'I'M SORRY' and then Harry is like 'ME TOO' and then they kiss and make up and Hermione sits at the side, sobbing and over-annunciating words.
Some pointless stuff happens, Krum makes googly eyes at Hermione, Hermione says he is too 'physical' of a person, BAHBHAHVAHBHAGHAHGASHFOAHFLASD, and Harry is all backsass and all 'OH RELALY, DIDNT KNOW THE CHALLENEGE IS IN TWO DAYS, HERMIONESHADDUPSTOPCRYING'. Bathroom scene.. HHHHHHAAAAAAAHHHAAAAAA, priceless. Oh Mertle, you are ugly and about 50 years old. Harry is too cool for you.
Neville helping Harry, aw. Harry helping Fleur's sister, awwww. Fleur failing at every single challenge basically, HAHHAWWW!!! I liked the merpeople. Oh Harry, you are so beautiful.
Then blah blah blah, LAST CHALLLENNGEE!! This was actually amazing. Dan did such a good job of acting crazy about Cedric dying. And no joke, when the shot moved to Cho crying, I don't know why but the entire audience broke out into laughter. And I will admit, I threw in a few chortles.

But yeah, I am going to pretend that it ended with Harry throwing himself across Cedric's body and screaming out in sadness because that would have been the most emotional ending ever.

AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT.
