So, I finally got 'round to seeing Goblet of Fire last night with elira, lianda, ostraya, and smirnov_.

It was much better than I had expected, having not liked the book very much (although I love me some Triwizard Champions - if only they'd had, you know, lines or something). I actually almost want to read the book again on the strength of the movie alone, except I know ( Read more... )

I UTTERLY AGREE!

Although, what I'm really looking forward to is Radcliffe doing HBP!Harry.
I'm worried, though, since it takes about 2 years for each movie, right? Already, he looked kinda old for the Goblet of Fire (14? C'mon.) By the time Half Blood Prince comes around, wouldn't he be around 21-ish? I like him too, but I'm thinking that they're gonna up and replace him. o_O. EEEE.

But him looking at Cho Chang and slopping water was hilarious. I LOVED THAT SCENE.

- Cedric Diggory does this thing where he stares at stuff in an uncomfortably sexual manner. Like, the Goblet of Fire and Harry and stuff. Um.

HAHA WHEN CEDRIC ASKED HARRY TO TAKE A BATH I WAS THE ONLY ONE LAUGHING IN THE THEATRE. You'd like that, Cedric, wouldn't you?! WOULDN'T YOU?

Ahem.

I still love you Fleur Delacour!I wanted to hear her French accent! But all she said was "you saved my sister" and everything else was pretty much looking proud and stuff... She looked pretty in her gown! But then there was only a flash on her before they moved onto someone else. It ( ... )

Radcliffe's only 16 right now. Yeah, in later movie's it might make a difference, but if Hollywood believes that a 27-year-old Tobey Maguire can play a high school kid, I don't think they'll have a difficulty with an 18-year-old playing a 15-year-old. I think replacing him would be a mighty stupid thing to do. Too many people like Radcliffe too much, and he's gotten good enough at the part that it would be a shame to kick him out and replace him with some noob ( ... )

Oh, Dan. This movie was substantially more British than the previous ones, actually. They actually said "take the mickey" a couple of times. I loved it!

See, but that's actually closer to how I picture Dumbledore than how Harris (bless him) used to play 'im. Harris was too twinkly and too cuddly. I've always seen Dumbledore as a horrible, secretive, manipulative old bastard who you can't trust even a little -- I've always hated him -- and I love Gambon for bring that through a little. Now if only Rickman would stop playing Snape as amusing and, at best, grumpy, I think we'd have the perfect cast.

Okay, yes well. I'll admit I wasn't immune to the charms of Ron's bare arms. :P
