Title: Potter returns to the big screen
Post by: Corsair on May 08, 2005, 08:35:49 pm: I dunno how many of you are into Harry Potter but here goes nothing...

Goblet of Fire trailer (http://movies.apple.com/movies/wb/harry_potter_goblet/hp_gobletoffire_m480.mov)

Looks to me like it'll have its ups and downs. Some things I really don't like just from watching the trailer. On the other hand, that dragon looks amazing.

Needless to say, I'm disappointed.

Want a good fantasy book? Read the Runelords series, best books ever.

I think for the audience JK Rowling was going for (children) the books suit their purpose. Then they grow up and read other fantasy stories.
