Movie Rewatch Review – Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
My favorite of all the Harry Potter films — and books for that matter — this is just an A+ good time. If you like a quest-type adventure story, Goblet of Fire is a fine addition to the ranks of high fantasy. Unfortunately, I can’t speak for how well this tale holds together if you…

Everything wrong with Wonder Woman 1984 and suggestions to fix it
