The Goblet of Fire

I had fun. I'm impressed that my mom didn't fall asleep in the middle. I liked the movie. I don't have any profound or insightful thoughts about how it functions as an adaptation yet. It seemed rushed--I'm glad I've read the book a couple of times--but what else can you do with that size novel and still keep it watchable? Ralph Fiennes is awesome, I can't wait until the next movies when he'll be on screen more. All the boys are getting so dang cute. I enjoyed the Krum-Hermoine-Ron triangle. Cho's accent is adorable.

Overall, I think I still might like the third movie better, but I'm withholding final judgment until I've had multiple viewings, which will hopefully happen over break!

Speaking of a movie seeming rushed, have you seen the new P&P yet?
