Thanks, Abby! ... Cain! I'm thrilled, because I absolutely loved her first novel, Heartsick, I was really hoping for a copy of The Fire, as I've been a huge fan of Katherine Neville's since The Eight, but I'm not going to complain.

I highly enjoyed the Harry Potter movies prior to Goblet of Fire because of it's large differences from the book. (Prior to that I was agreeable with the movies, since then not so much.)
I really can't think of any ... Order of the Phoenix wasn't quite as bad a movie for me as Goblet of Fire was. Although, I did miss the jelly brains that Ron encounters in the Ministry of Magic and I really wanted to see the hospital scene it wasn't quite as disappointing overall as GoF was.
I don't like how they did Siriu ... Goblet of Fire disappointed me to no end. The book was good, but the movie left too many things out. The house elves are omitted and are left out. I enjoyed that part of the book. The scene at the camp for the Quidditch World Cup was also lacking. Harry's wand never disappears in the melee.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire--from there, they were all downhill from there. I liked Goblet of Fire because it was a bit darker in tone and it showed everyone growing up a little bit. Hermione dates Viktor and Ron gets jealous and then Harry loses out to Cedric when he asks Cho out. And then it all gets very dark and dramatic with the trials and then the death of Cedric/ ... ... even if they were still odious. I love that Neville got his chance to be his parents' son.
