I started the reading project with a film and the film I picked was Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. First I will talk about the genre of Harry Potter which is fantasy, mystery, thriller, etc. This film is the 4th Harry Potter movie to be created and this film is about Harry’s 4th year at Hogwarts a school for young witches and wizards. This is also the 4th adaptation of the Harry potter book.

In the film, Harry Potter has two best friends Ron and Hermine. Harry wears black circular glasses, has longish brown hair, is quite short and also he has a scar which was given to him by a dark wizard when he was just a baby. Harry Potter grew up with no mother or father due to them being killed by Voldermolt the dark wizard who gave him the scar when he was a baby. Harry is an only child and since his parents were killed when he was baby, he had to stay with the only relative he had, his horrible aunt, her husband and their fat son. They didn’t really like Harry because they saw him as a freak because he was different so for the whole of Harry Potter, he never liked them.

The film is very interesting, because that year in Hogwarts, they were holding the tri-wizard cup a trophie which gives the winner eternal glory. The tri-wizard games are very dangerous so the ministry of magic (magic council) put an age limit of 17, which meant that Harry could not enter. When Dubldore the headmaster of Hogworts collects the three champions from Hogwarts and the two other schools, everybody celebrates but suddenly from the cup a great fire birsts and out of the fire a paper flies out saying Harry’s name which made a lot of the other students angry and jealous especially his best friend Ron since he was to young to enter. The tournament has three stages the first is that you have to battle a dragon to get the golden egg, the second is to save someone important to you underwater and the final is a maze and the first one through it wins the tri-wizard cup. Harry made it past the first two stages but during the third stage, him and Sedrick a former contestant are transported to a grave yard. Harry is then used to bring Voldermolt back from the dead, Sedrick is then killed by Voldermolt which makes Harry angry. Harry confronts him but was overpowered and lucky to manage to e escapee with his life. When they make it out Harry tells everyone about how Sedrick was killed but nobody believed him and that is basically the end of the film.

This film links to my new theme of fantasy because the film is about wizards, giant spiders, etc which are all  make believe.
