Goblet of Fire: The Non-Potter Fan review

[jetpack_monkey_ljarchive]

BRILLIANT! What a phenomenal film. Finally, somebody gets past Rowling's occasionally bloated plotting and overworn sense of self-cleverness to the heart of the story. Fantastic. Mike Newell, you may continue to direct further entries in the series as you see fit. *bows*

Also, David Tennant was freakin' awesome.

I have, and Tennant's already worn out his welcome and annoyed the crap out of me. Eek.

For some reason, this makes me think I'm absolutely going to hate this film.... le sigh.

And Mike Newell has already declined doing any more of the films. Given the director turnover rate, those kids must be awfully damn hard to work with or something. Or Rowling is. Something.

Ditto that, son. I was in awe of the pacing, cinematography (in particular) and the general improvement of the tone
