Alright, before I start I’ll say that I am a Potter fan! Harry Potter has been a part of my life since some time in the 90’s when my mum bought me The Philosopher’s Stone audiobook. The first three films are brilliant; the last four films are also brilliant, but The Goblet of Fire is where it all goes wrong for me I’m afraid…
The first time we spot Harry, Hermione and the Weasleys they are walking up the hill to the portkey to take them to the Quidditch world cup! Not as great a start as the book, which has a hilarious moment introducing the Weasley Twins’ ‘Tonne-Tongue Toffee’ at the Dursleys’ with hilarious results. I was really looking forward to seeing that scene in the cinema, the lack of which set the scene for the whole film, as a heavily edited story.
