Heida

Fans of the books have long made fun of Dumbledore's "DID YA PUT YAH NAME IN DA GOLBET OF FIYAH?" because it is clearly stated "Dumbledoe asked CALMLY". Just one example of how film Dumbledore is different from book Dumbledore AND how Michael Gambon's Dumbledore is different from Richard Harris' Dumbledore. Both great, just different. The thing with Ron is that he has always had this inferiority complex. He grew up in the shadow of his siblings (mainly his brothers) and, being Harry Potter's best friend, ends up in his shadow. In the first film, he sees himself in the Mirror of Erised as head boy and Quidditch captain covered in glory. He is envious of the chance to compete for riches and glory, and the idea that Harry may not have put his name in the Goblet of Fire doesn't even cross his mind because he is so blinded by envy. That's why he's such an ass in the first part of the film. At least one full-scale dragon was constructed on the set, which could even blow real fire. It was created partially from the basilisk puppet seen in Chamber of Secrets. Only Harry's battle against his dragon is shown in the film but the way the other contestants stole the golden eggs from their dragons is revealed in the book. Cedric used a Transfiguration spell to change a rock into a dog to distract his, Fleur enchanted hers into falling asleep and Krum used the Conjunctivitis Curse to blind his. Also, Harry's was very different in the book. It involved him simply flying in circles to confuse the dragon and getting the golden egg. There were also real dragon eggs, implying they were simply protecting them from the champions. The underwater scenes were shot in a huge purpose-built tank (one of the largest underwater sets ever constructed) with a bluescreen background. Safety divers swam in-between takes with scuba regulators, to allow the actors to breathe without having to surface. Daniel Radcliffe was underwater for about 40 hours and at one point, he actually almost drowned. Also, as with the petrified figures in Chamber of Secrets, full-sized models were used for the those scenes which required the actors to keep completely still. A bit of a problematic fact about the scene where Harry is in the bath and Moaning Myrtle is all over him, is at the time of shooting, Daniel Radcliffe was only 15 while Shirley Henderson (Moaning Myrtle) was 40. While Dan was obviously not naked in the scene, switch the genders and it would be an outrage. For Mad-Eye Moody, they used straps to conceal the wires that moved his fake eye kept it in place. The tongue tick was not in the book and was improvised by David Tennant who plays Crouch Jr. Brendan Gleeson (Mad Eye Moody) then added the quirk to a few of his scenes as a hint to his real identity. In one of the first takes of Hermione's "Cinderella moment" Emma Watson actually tripped and fell down the stairs. The bandmembers at the ball include Honny Greenwood (lead guitar) and Phil Selway (drums) of Radiohead. During the trial when Igor is exposing Barty’s son, he mentions that he was involved in the torture of the Longbottoms, who are indeed Neville’s parents (which explains why he is so upset when "Moody" demonstrates the Cruciatus curse in class - because it was used on his parents). Victor Krum is under the Imperius Curse (one of the three unforgivable curses) in the maze. The victim basically has no control over their actions and is obedient to whomever casted the spell (in this case Barty Crouch Jr). They are placed in a trance-like state, hence why his eyes are like that. Voldemort’s appearance is a physical manifestation of how evil his soul has become. Plus, as the heir of Slytherin, where the symbol is a snake, he has snakelike nasal slits. Ralph Fiennes (pronounced Rafe Fine+s) is the actor portraying Voldemort. Besides HP he is most known for Schindler's List, rightfully so because his performance in that is AMAZING. I definitely recommend it but it's VERY graphic and disturbing. Ralph was also in Maid in Manhattan as Mrs. Movies said. Voldemort identifies four Death Eaters by name: MacNair, Crabbe, Goyle, and Lucius. Lucius is of course Draco's father, Crabbe and Goyle are the fathers of Draco's friends and the last one, MacNair, is identified in the book as the guy who is supposed to execute Buckbeak in Prisoner of Azkaban. Remember in the first film when Ollivander says to Harry that the core of his wand was made from a feather of the same phoenix as Voldemort's (more specifically Dumbledore's phoenix aka Fawkes)? The Priori Incantatem, or Reverse Spell, effect occurs when such 'brother wands' connect in a duel. The winner's wand (Harry's) forces the loser's wand (Voldemort's) to produce "echoes" of their most recent spells performed in reverse order. So when Harry sees Cedric, the muggle from the beginning and his parents, that is the reverse order in which they were killed by Voldemort's wand. Cedric's dad's cries are absolutely heartbreaking. The actor, Jeff Rawle, gave one of the best performances in the film. In the book, Harry and Cedric are tied for first place, but with Cedric dead, Harry is declared the winner. He is rewarded with a large sum of money, but struck with immense guilt over Cedric's death he offers it to Cedric's parents, who politely decline. He gives the money to Fred and George instead who use it to open a joke shop. As always there's are some things in the book that are not in the film. Most of it is not THAT important but one thing I love that is missing is a subplot involving Hermione forming S.P.E.W. (Society for the Promotion of Elfish Welfare), a group/organisation to liberate Hogwarts' enslaved house-elves. Winky the house-elf who serves the Crouch family is an important character in the book, as is Dobby (he gives Harry the Gillyweed instead of Neville).
