Goblet accelerated the evolution that began in Azakaban from adorable-moppet kiddie interaction into hormonal teenaged drama. Daniel Radcliffe told EW his character “is going through that puberty crap. You know: the first crush. Of course, when it’s your first crush, it’s not just a crush — you looove her.” The “her” in question was Cho Chang (Katie Leung), Ravenclaw fifth-year and braincrush for a generation of shy high school lit geeks (or anyways, for this shy high school lit geek). In Goblet, though, Cho’s quite a bit more interested in a glamour boy athlete with the glamour boy name Cedric Diggory, played by a handsome glamour boy named Robert Pattinson who you might have heard of a few million times in the last couple years.
But Goblet was an evolution in another way, too. The movie begins in a rather jaunty tone that has more in common with the Chris Columbus films than with Azkaban. By the end, though, it’s gone to a far darker place than Cuaron’s movie. ForGoblet ends (SPOILER ALERT!) with the terrifying abrupt death of Diggory, and before the audience has even quite recovered, Voldemort is reborn.
