GoF
I finally got to see GoF! It's a good movie, very funny, *spectacular* visuals – but PoA was better. Can we have Cuaron back on team? And oh,
msgenevieve - watch the movie. Dan will make you squee, as will David Tennant.
the bad:
Why was there no Narcissa Malfoy with Lucius and Draco at the World Cup? And why was there no Quidditch match? I wanted the Quidditch match!
Emma's acting needs to improve. No, seriously. She gets away with it because she has little to do in the movies, but it won't help her if she's to do something else other than play Hermione Granger.
Rupert is very funny, but he's *got* to lose those facial expressions. Rupert, honey? You're not Jim Carrey. Don't try to be.
The editing throughout the movie was very choppy. I understand that they had to compress the story, but that's not an excuse.
the good:
Dan's acting has improved. He's the best among the three.
OMG Viktor Krum! I know Cedric's fandom's latest favourite pretty boy, but Krum! So pretty!
The visuals were absolutely spectacular. From the Quidditch stadium to the Durmstrang ship, everything was spectacular. This is the reason I go to the movies – they bring JKR's world alive.
Miranda Richardson is the best. THE BEST! I now want to write Rita Skeeter fic.
Snape in the study sequence? Ahahaha!
OMG Voldemort! Ralph Fiennes *owned* the character. His creepyness and his mesmerising presence – it's all there.
I heart Harry/Myrtle. *g*

Agreed on the visuals: it's the whole reason I see the movies. The World Cup arena blew me away.
I'll confess that I can now see why Cedric is movie!fandom's pretty boy, but my heart beats for Krum only ;)
Finally, it's hard to hate evil when Crouch Jr. and Voldie are so bloody awesome.

It means we'll have to wait till the sixth movie to know how she looks! Waah!
Krumissopretty! You know, the moment in the stadium where the giant Krum picture appears? It suddenly hit me: Hermione dated Viktor Krum. Hermione dated *Viktor Krum*. How cool is that? How cool is that *Hermione*? *squee*
Also, I did not like Padma's dress. Somehow, the red and pink combination doesn't really work for me.

Seriously! Who cares about her and The Boy Who Lived? Krum!
Re: the Patils's dresses. Lamest Indian dresses ever. Shoulda busted out one those spankgly lengha-cholis and showed the British folk how to really dress for a special occasion!
