Title: Harry Potter 4 (don't click if you haven't seen it!!!)
Post by: BP on November 19, 2005, 12:58:45 AM
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire chat!
I saw it today. It followed the book a lot more than the 3rd movie did. It also had WAY better acting. But the Quidditch World Cup at the beginning was too short. (I guess they had to make it short since it ended up being 3 hours long anyway.) It's hard to give spoilers if the book's been out for 5 or 6 years now.

I watched it today.

I wasn't too impressed though. I thought the "Important" scenes were cut short and the more "Tedious" scenes were spread out.

GOD!! It was sweet :D I mean, man, it was the best one out so far, the acting the graphics and how well it followed the book.

I actually know someone who refuses to read the books b/c they're too lazy and hate reading. hehe. . .but I've already read all of them that are out.

I took Screech to see this movie recently, he told me that it was pretty good, but I'll let him post if he feels the need. :)

All I heard was Hermione's S.P.E.W. subplot was cut and I danced for joy. Now let's just see how they handle Order of the Phonix and The Half Blood Prince.

I saw the movie the night Bird Person posted this topic, I didn't even know it was out yet. The movie was good, it ties in to the changes that happened in the third really well, I don't read the books much because I don't want it to spoil the movies, but every time one of these comes out I really like the newer one, now I don't admire the first as much as the rest.

It was good. I especially liked the graveyard scene at the end, that was cool. Oh, and I laughed at all the scenes with that one midget music director. HA!

Least favorite of the ones released.  It made some scenes drag on (The first task), and left important sub-plots out (the Weasly Twins, making joke stuff, and Hagrid being a Giant).  They really rushed a lot of things, and it wasn't as long as the others.  They likely could have made it about 3 hours, put in some important parts, cut down on the dragon and maybe the ball, and it would have been much better, in my opinion.

The night I made the topic was right after I got home from seeing the movie, which was opening night. My sister commented on how everyone knew what was going to happen; because the only people who go on opening night are the people who actually read the book.

Least favorite of the ones released?! Did you see the third movie? It didn't even follow the previous movies, let alone the book! Where'd that hill that Hagrid's house was at the bottom of suddenly appear from? Why's the Whomping Willow so much more viny? Was Harry supposed to be crying when he overheard the conversation about Sirius Black? The Goblet of Fire was not bad at all.

Yay! I saw it last night! It was sweet. They shouldn't have cut 99.99999% of the Quidditch World Cup. That stunk. The movie was still awesome, though. That's just it. Awesome. Period.

I saw it and liked it.  It seemed that they made some things more thrilling, like the first task of the triwizard tournament.  They did leave out a lot, like Charlie and Bill, Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes, most of the Quidditch World Cup and third task and the whole house elf thing.  Out of all the moives so far, I like the third one better, as far as telling the book's story accurately.  But the four book was longer, so it was probably harder.
