No matter, The Goblet of Fire is full of fresh adventures for the trio of Harry, Ron, and Hermione. I mean, why wouldn't he be an interesting character? He's just the 4th straight new defense against the dark arts teacher to be hiding something in one way or another. Looking back, it's difficult to assess how much I enjoyed the character considering he was kidnapped for nearly the entire length of the film, but his impact on Harry's tribulations throughout the film are felt.
Most notably, Brendan Gleeson's Professor Alastor 'Mad¬Eye' Moody. Goblet certainly brings some new characters along with its different identity. I've seen the film several times, but there's nothing quite like watching the Triwizard Tournament with someone who has no idea what they're in for. Of course, part of the fun nature of this film is its mysteriousness and the unpredictability.
It comes right out and states that this franchise is no longer just a fun adventure, there are dangerously high stakes involved here, and Voldemort is a part of them. The Goblet of Fire opens with a pretty terrifying dream sequence involving a deformed Voldemort, which may very well be my favorite opening to any of the films in the series. Yes, Prisoner of Azkaban has its dark moments, but the grave sense of danger and threat isn't really present until the 4th film. But Goblet of Fire is the turning point in the franchise for me. Up until Goblet of Fire, the Potter franchise is a load of fun with some creepy imagery and dark concepts mixed in.
