Holy effing crap. I just got back from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (my third viewing) with Adam. On the way back to drop me off, we discussed a few of the things that we liked and disliked about the movie. Like how Hermione is completely insane and on the verge of hysteria the entire movie. But anyway. The really interesting thing in the conversation happened when we started comparing this one to the third movie.

Adam brought up how he had rewatched the third movie after he had read the sixth book. “Do you remember when Fred or George or whoever asked Ron how he would feel if he was thrown off the top of the Astronomy Tower?” OHMYGOD HOLY MOLY GASP.

“Ohmigawd. Oh my god! Yeah! Remember when J. K. Rowling said in the special features that there were things in the third movie that were in the sixth book and that it scared the crap out of her since she hadn’t even written it yet? I thought it was just the Ron and Hermione holding hands thing!! Ohmygosh!”

Does anybody else think that Steve Kloves is officially creepy? Like going-into-J. K. Rowling’s-house-at-night-and-stealing-her-secret-notebooks creepy? Because, really! Astronomy tower? Thrown off? SIXTH BOOK?!!!

And then Adam was like, “I also think that after watching this movie that Dumbledore really isn’t who we think he is.”

I was like, “Yeah, I remember when you said that after reading the fifth book that you thought that Dumbledore might be evil. And what with the whole, ‘I think Harry should participate in the tournament’ and the ‘I think you should ignore your dreams’ things, I think you might be right.”

“Yeah, that, too…. But remember when Barty Crouch Junior was in Moody’s office and he had his dark mark out? And he was like, ‘I’ll show your mine if you show me yours?’ I swear, he was looking RIGHT AT DUMBLEDORE.”

Okay, now. Everybody. AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!
