Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Went for Harry Potter And the Goblet of Fire with Heidi.
Boy I had a rough time going out... haha... First I was incredibly late (although she was late too). When I was walking out to the bus stop, the bus just drove off. Second I forgotten to bring my debit card out!! No money how to go gai gai... Gotta run back home to grab the card then run out again. This time, the bus was on the way towards the stop. RUN AGAIN... Darn tiring.

WHen I arrived at The Gates, she wasnt there yet (later than me=P) so I decided to go grab my brother's stuff first. Went to the Comic store in Chinatown & it was packed (first time). There was a CS (Counter Strike) Competition going on, so all guys were there gathering. I thought that game was so history, always hear the guys in school talkin abou it.
THen went to the Chinese store to grab Taufu Fa for Dan. The uncle told me no one eats Taufu Fa during winter... I was like.. HAR? He then introduced me Instant Taufu Fa. Just add water & sugar andn there you are... You own TAUFU FA.

Heidi then met up with me in front of the cinema. Its my first time seeing the cinema's PACKED. Watching movies isnt a huge thing to the British, they prefer to buy dvds and keep it as a collection. If I am them, I would do that too, cause a ticket cause you £6. WHile a Dvd cause you about £20. You wont loose much buying it back home & watch it countless times... haha... Not like Malaysia, a ticket cost you RM10 but a dvd cause you RM120.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is a big hit in the UK. All tickets were sold out, we only managed to grab the 6pm session.

As it was only 3.30pm, we decided to have some window shopping & had our dinner before the movie starts. Wento USC, saw some great stuff - bags, blouses, skirts but we didnt get any of those... Waiting for the Winter sale * wee*
Then The Body Shop and got a facial blotter, then BOOTS to check up some cosmectic stuff (Heidi).
Later we went to Accessorize. MAN, ITS EMBARRASSSSINGG!!!! I totally forgotten that they dont accept solo cards & thats the only thing I have!!!! I gotta get Heidi to pay on my behalf >,<. At that very moment, everyone;s looking at you... JUST IMGAINE HOW BAD THE SITUATION WAS!!!!!! By the way, Accessorize is selling pet's clothes which are soooo adorable... But pricely too, £10 cheapest. I might get one of the really pretty cute collar for Fifi. As Malaysia's too hot to have her wearing clothes, getting accessories for her will be enough. Christmas's coming and they are selling earring of Santa, Christmas tree & rain deer with LIGHTS ON!! haha.. So you can wear those earring with the lights on, this way you will loook like a tree? haha... I saw a frying egg pan with the LOVE shape!! I WAS SOOOOO CLOSE of buying it cause its soo cute... A love shape eggie... haha.... But I didnt... Might get that if its on sale... haha... After that we went for Burger King then Fenwick on the way to the cinema. Heidi & I decided to get the Stilla foundation when we got our wages. Packaging is so important. It makes the products so cute that you just want to have it, regardless of the price... haha... For the very firs time, Odeon is PACKED. We got to even queue up to enter the cinema. Cinemas in UK is free sitting so you got to grab your seats early for such situation. FOr normal time the cinema is just 30% full. Compared to Malaysia's GSC, Odeon really neeed to SAO PEI... Maybe only London Odeon which always held Premiere can fight.. haha...

The show was good but not great. The book is always better, much more excitement. But the director's just being practical I guess, filming the whole book would take about 3 hours to end it.
For those who havent read the book, I would recomand you to first watch the movie then go for the book. From the movie, you can always get whats written in the book, but from the book, there are so much things you cant find from the movie. Besides, reading gives you much room to imagine things, make things more fun and of course YOUR WAY. You can imagine the actors to be as handsome as you want, the girls as pretty as you like or as ugly as you like... haha...
I personally fantasize Igor Karkaroff (Pedja Bjelac (II)) to be REALLY HOT, but in the movie he turns out to be really yukky...

Michael Gambon playing the new Professor Albus Dumbledore is really disappointing. He is way too energetic to be Professor Dumbledore. The foremore Professor was much calmer & looked much wiser. This one looked just like a stupid crazy overwhelmed Professor.

Daniel Radcliffe, Harry Potter. He really grown up compared to the previous movies. ANd he does have a body(The scene he tried to crack the egg in the prefect bathroom).. haha.. Although it isnt those manly type, but I can see potential in him.. haha...
He looks so gentleman... Like a real Englishman... haha...

Emma Watson, Hermione Granger. She's getting prettier and more lady like compared to the past where she look like a GIRL. Hehe...

Rupert Grint, Ron Weasley. TO be honest I think he can be a hot dude in the future... haha... Still young... haha.. got lots of room to be improve...haha...

Katie Leung, Cho Chang. I think she's really cute and pretty. She should have got the dance with Harry!!! But what ever... her partner died at the end.. lol...

Robert Pattinson, Cedric Diggory. I think he's cute, but not the SUPER CUTE type like Justin Timberlake... haah... Too bad he died... haha...

Overall, its a good movie. Especially in the first task, the graphic were excellent. They make it so real. Just that I personally think that, they should also film the other participants tackling their task. It might make Harry not so in the spot light, but it sort of balance things out. Centralizing the main character too much might bring abit negative effects to the overall show.
