Book (origin of story) Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire |
2005 film Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire |
|---|---|---|
| Arrival and Characteristics of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang schools | The schools arrive on October 30th, and Hogwarts students watch as the Beauxbatons carriage and the Durmstrang ship land and dock. There are no special presentations from the schools. Both schools have students of both genders. | The schools arrive on September 1st, the first day of school, and Hogwarts students watch as the Beauxbatons carriage and the Durmstrang ship land and dock. The two foreigns schools present themselves to Hogwarts by dancing to "traditional" music of their country. Beauxbatons is an all-girls school, while Durmstrang is all-boys. |
| Barty Crouch Jr.'s story and fate | Under the influence of Veritaserum, Barty Crouch Jr., who was thought to have died in Azkaban Prison, explains how he escaped. The solution involves Polyjuice Potion and faking his own death in prison as well as the death of his mother Mrs. Crouch. Once Crouch Jr. returned home, he rejoined forces with Lord Voldemort, and as services to the Death Eaters, captured the real Alastor Moody, disguised himself as Moody, taught Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, guided Harry to Voldemort by aiding him in the Triwizard Tournament, and killing his father Barty Crouch Sr., whom he had also put under the Imperius Curse. After explaining this, Cornelius Fudge issues a Dementor's kiss to be performed on Barty Crouch Jr., which angers Dumbledore, who claims that his evidence would have been vital in the wizarding world. | No explanation such as the book's ensues in the film; the audience is left to believe that somehow, Barty Crouch Jr. escaped from Azkaban (after all Sirius Black did it in the previous film). The audience was already under the impression that he was working for the Dark Side. The last time we see Crouch Jr., he is left under the guard of Severus Snape, a suspicious watchman. When the plot of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix calls for the fact that nobody can give a first-hand recount of the story, it may be that the filmmakers wish the audience to conclude from the previous film that this is standard operating procedure. |
| Barty Crouch Sr.'s fate | Harry and Viktor Krum are walking through the Hogwarts grounds when they find an alive but very much distressed Barty Crouch Sr. at the edge of the forest, which is surprising since he has been supposed to be sick and has been absent from the Triwizard Tournament happenings for some time. He is is under his son’s Imperius Curse, but is starting to fight back. He rotates from thinking his wife and son are alive, to thinking he’s talking to Percy Weasley (calling him Weatherby), to saying that he needs to see Dumbledore and that Bertha Jorkins is dead and it’s his fault. Harry runs to get Dumbledore. Stopped only by Snape on the way, Harry returns quickly with Dumbledore only to find a Stunned Krum and no Crouch. It is told later that Crouch Jr. killed Crouch Sr. | Harry, Ron, Hermione and Hagrid are walking through the forest, singing the school song. Harry finds Barty Crouch Sr.'s distinct hat, and then Crouch himself, dead, behind a tree. It is not later stated how Crouch Sr. dies, but the audience is left with strong clues (including both Jr. and Sr.'s mutual hate, Jr.'s tongue-flicking, and Sr.'s frightened look at Moody whom he must realize to be his son in disguise) to infer so. It is never stated the Crouch Sr. was under the Imperius Curse. |
| Beginning | Frank Bryce sees lights in an upstairs window in the Riddle House, and goes to inspect things. He overhears Lord Voldemort talking with Wormtail about killing a woman named Bertha Jorkins and a plan to kill a boy named Harry Potter. Nagini slithers past him, and informs Voldemort that Bryce is outside the door, listening to every word they say. Voldemort invites in a fearless Bryce, who makes threats, but Voldemort kills him. | Frank Bryce sees lights in an upstairs window in the Riddle House, and goes to inspect things. He overhears Lord Voldemort talking with Wormtail and Barty Crouch Jr. about a plan to kill a boy named Harry Potter. Nagini slithers past him, and informs Voldemort that Bryce is outside the door, listening to every word they say. Voldemort turns around and kills him. |
| Cedric Diggory’s Parents | Unlike his son, who is quite modest, Amos Diggory likes to boast about his son's accomplishments and give Harry a hard time. During Harry’s first encounter with him, Amos rudely remarks how Cedric beat Harry at Quidditch in their previous year. He was unaware that Harry had been suffering from the effects of Dementors. Then, before the third task, Amos says, "Bet you’re not feeling quite as full of yourself now Cedric’s caught you up on points, are you?" Cedric tells Harry to ignore him, citing that he's been angry since Rita Skeeter left him out of her Triwizard Tournament article. Later, after Harry brings Cedric’s body back to his parents, as per Cedric's request, they hear the story firsthand from Harry of how their son had died. “Mr. Diggory sobbed through most of the interview. Mrs. Diggory’s grief seemed to be beyond tears.” Harry attempts to give his Triwizard winnings to Mrs. Diggory, but she tells Harry she can’t take it, and makes him keep it. It is later given to Fred and George Weasley | Cedric’s mother does not appear, nor does any storyline about the Triwizard winnings. However, Amos does appear, although he is never rude to Harry, and actually seems quite amicable. This is perhaps so that the audience is a touch more sympathetic to the character after the loss of his son at the end, where all the spectators of the third task take in the news silently as Amos cries loudly in front of them. |
| The Dark Mark | Harry, Ron and Hermione run through the woods at the Quidditch World Cup campsite. They hear Barty Crouch Jr.’s voice conjure the Dark Mark, but do not see him, and do not know who he is; thus they do not recognize his voice. Ministry officials – including Barty Crouch Sr. and Arthur Weasley – appear, and Winky the House-Elf, whose serves the Crouch household, is caught holding the wand that fired the Dark Mark. Although the trio claims that they heard a deep voice, and Winky’s is high-pitched, Crouch Sr. dismisses Winky on the spot. | Harry is separated from Ron and Hermione during the pandemonium. As he tries to get away from the scene on his own, he trips, and somebody, trying to get away as well, inadvertently kicks him in the head. He is knocked unconscious for some amount of time. When he wakes up, the fire is extinguished, and the grounds are empty except for one man (Barty Crouch Jr., but Harry doesn’t know it) who conjures the Dark Mark. Crouch Jr. sees Harry but runs away quickly. Ron and Hermione find Harry immediately afterward, and ask him where he had gone, but Ministry officials – including Barty Crouch Sr., and Arthur Weasley – appear. Crouch Sr. accuses the trio of conjuring the Dark Mark, but Arthur immediately puts down that idea, citing that one of the children is his own son. Harry tells the officials he saw a man, and they go to try and find him. |
| Dumbledore's thoughts on Harry entering the Triwizard Tournament | After Harry’s name comes out of the Goblet of Fire and the four champions and school officials gather in the Trophy Room, Dumbledore asks Harry quite calmly if he entered the tournament, or had an older student put his name in the Goblet. Harry says he didn’t and Dumbledore is satisfied with this. | After Harry’s name comes out of the Goblet of Fire and the four champions and school officials gather in the Trophy Room, Dumbledore shakes Harry violently and Harry falls backward, crashing into some trophies. Asking the same questions he did in the book, Harry says he didn’t and Dumbledore is satisfied for the time being. Later, in a scene not in the book, Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, and Moody gather in Dumbledore’s office where they discuss the night’s events. Dumbledore asks Moody to keep an eye on Harry and help him. |
| The Dursleys | Harry starts off at the Dursleys’ home, Number 4 Privet Drive. The Weasleys use floo powder and arrive in the Dursleys’ fireplace. Dudley is fed Ton-Tongue Toffee by Fred and George. The Weasleys prepare to take Harry back to the Burrow with them, and when the Dursleys do not say good-bye, Arthur is shocked. | Due to the omission of the Dursleys, none of this happens, and Harry starts the film already at the Burrow. |
| End | The book ends on the Hogwarts Express with a bit of a "wrap-up;" Hermione explains how she caught Rita Skeeter, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Fred, George and Ginny attack Draco Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle, and Harry gives Fred and George his prize money from the Triwizard Tournament, encouraging them to start their joke shop. | The film ends after Dumbledore's eulogy for Cedric Diggory, with students from all three schools hugging, Harry, Ron and Hermione talking about "things never being the same" as well as the approaching summer, and the Beauxbatons carriage and the Durmstrang ship leaving the Hogwarts campus. |
| Filch's role | Filch is not featured prominently in this book. He makes an appearance, but nothing notable. | Filch is the butt of two gags in the film. The first is during Dumbledore's traditional opening speech, where he enters, half-running, half-jumping, through the great oak front doors. He whispers a few words to Dumbledore, interrupting him, and then exits in the same fashion. The purpose of this is not clearly explained, if it is at all. The second is a running joke throughout the movie. At the start of each task, Dumbledore tells the contestants that they may begin at the sound of the cannon, but before he can finish speaking these words, Filch accidentally fires the cannon too early. |
| The First Task | Harry enters the dragon arena and begins to battle with the Hungarian Horntail. He Summons his Firebolt and begins to fly around the arena. Amidst a graze on his arm and the fact that the bottom of his broomstick catches on fire, Harry manages to retrieve the Golden Egg from the dragon’s protection. | Harry enters the dragon arena and begins to battle with the Hungarian Horntail. He Summons his Firebolt and begins to fly around the arena. Suddenly, the Horntail breaks free from her chain and chases after Harry. The two fly out of the arena and out of sight of the spectators, at they fly around Hogwarts. Harry loses sight of the dragon himself for a moment, and then nearly collides with it, causing him to fall off his broom and hold onto a protrusion in one of the towers for dear life. He manages to climb up to where his broom landed, and he jumps back onto it. In a few minutes he flies back to the arena, the Horntail in hot pursuit, and grabs the Golden Egg. |
| Fleur Delacour's heritage | Fleur is stated to be part-Veela. | This is not revealed, and she does not appear to be exceptionally more beautiful than the rest of the Beauxbatons girls. |
| The Graveyard Scene | Harry is bound by very tight ropes by Peter Pettigrew. While waiting for the Death Eaters to arrive, Voldemort starts “reminiscing” (as he realizes he is growing “quite sentimental” later), and mentions that his father was a Muggle who abandoned his mother before he himself was born. Voldemort confirms that he murdered his father. Approximately 30 Death Eaters then Apparate into the graveyard, but only 8 or so are mentioned by name. | Harry is bound by the Grim Reaper's sickle. O nly a dozen or so Death Eaters appear in the graveyard. In their presence, Voldemort talks to Harry, and doesn’t discuss his parents at all Crabbe, Goyle, and Lucius Malfoy are mentioned by name. Malfoy actually shows his face to make his identity clearer to the audience. |
| Harry’s Preparation for the Tasks | Harry prepares for the first task by practicing Summoning charms with Hermione, after Barty Crouch Jr., disguised as Defense Against the Dark Art teacher Alastor Moody suggests that Harry summon his Firebolt and try to fly around the dragon. To prepare for the second task, Cedric gives Harry the clue to listen to the egg underwater in the Prefect’s Bathroom right after the Yule Ball (as readers later find out, that method the imposter Moody had suggested to Cedric, in the hopes he would tell Harry). Harry hesitates to take such a suspicious hint until a few days before the task, when he is desperate. Still, when he realizes he needs to stay underwater for an hour, he doesn’t know what to do. Dobby steals some Gillyweed from Snape’s private stores, when he overhears a conversation between Professors Moody and McGonagall that Harry doesn't know what to use to aid him in the Task. In preparation for the third task, Harry, Ron and Hermione look for all sorts of spells that could protect Harry from any creatures he might come across in the maze. | Harry prepares for the the first task only by knowing his game plan: that he will Summon his Firebolt to capture the Golden Egg. To prepare for the second task, Cedric gives Harry the hint two days before the task. Still, when he realizes he needs to stay underwater for an hour, he doesn’t know what to do. Due to the omission of the House-Elves, and thus Dobby, Neville, who is adept at Herbology, gives Harry Gillyweed when Harry is frantic before the start of the Second Task. This is somewhat taken from the book, as using Neville to help Harry learn about the Gillyweed was an original plan of Barty Crouch Jr.'s.Harry does nothing to prepare for the third task, because it is not revealed that it is a maze (or anything else) beforehand. |
| Hermione at the Yule Ball | Hermione wears a periwinkle dress to the Yule Ball, where she appears significantly more pretty than she is usually described. | Hermione wears a pink dress (which, though a small detail, caused some anger among fans), where she appears no more pretty than before, though she is not ugly in the first place. |
| Igor Karkaroff and his Death Eater status | Is revealed to be a Death Eater, is shown to be very worried and discusses his fears about the Dark Mark growing clearer with Snape, and later flees from Hogwarts once he knows that Voldemort has returned. | Not much of Karkaroff is seen in the film, and he is neither seen nor heard after his scene while on trial in the Pensieve. There is no mention of him fleeing after Voldemort's return, and it is suddenly established that he is a Death Eater during the trial scene, although there is a previous mysterious scene where he discreetly discussing something (presumably his Dark Mark) with Snape. |
| The Imperius Curse | In the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Moody performs the Imperius Curse upon several students in the class, including Harry. Harry is the best at resisting it. Later, when Lord Voldemort uses it upon Harry in the graveyard scene, Harry resists it, to the surprise of Voldemort. | Moody does not put the Imperius Curse upon anybody in his class, so when Harry is the victim of it by Lord Voldemort in the graveyard scene, he cannot put it off. |
| Madame Maxime's heritage | Madame Maxime is said to be half-giantess, just like Hagrid, who is half-giant. | This is not revealed, but Madame Maxime is abnormally tall. Some of her conversation with Hagrid is shown, but only partially. |
| Moaning Myrtle's role | She helps Harry underwater during the Second Task, guiding him to the place where the captives are and where the merpeople live. She sees Harry taking a bath in the prefects’ bathroom as well, but does not flirt with him. | Harry only sees Moaning Myrtle while taking a bath in the prefects’ bathroom. She flirts suggestively with him. |
| Neville's Parents' fate | During one of the three trial scenes in the Pensieve, Bellatrix Lestrange and Barty Crouch Jr. are part of the group of Death Eaters that are accused of torturing Frank and Alice Longbottom into insanity. After Dumbledore removes Harry from the basin, Harry asks if the people being discussed were Neville's parents, and Dumbledore confirms it, but tells Harry to keep it a secret. Dumbledore says Neville will tell people when he's ready. | Frank and Alice's names are mentioned, but the fact that they are Neville's parents and have been tortured to insanity has not been made clear. Bellatrix Lestrange's character has been completely omitted, and Harry isn't told to keep this upsetting information secret. |
| Parvati and Padma Patil | They are identical twins, in Gryffindor and Ravenclaw respectively. | They are fraternal twins who are both in Gryffindor. |
| Pensieve Scenes | There are three trials Harry visits in Dumbledore's Pensieve: those of Ludo Bagman and Igor Karkaroff, and the combined trial of Barty Crouch Sr., Bellatrix Lestrange, Rabastan Lestrange, and Rodolphus Lestrange. Barty Crouch Jr. pleads with both his father and mother to reverse the sentence, and is scared to go to Azkaban Prison. | The character of Ludo Bagman is cut; thus his trial is logically excluded. The other two trials are merged into one. Barty Crouch Jr.'s emotions during the scene make it obvious that he is guilty. He shows no remorse. |
| Polyjuice Potion | Is mentioned but once in Harry's thoughts, when Snape does all but accuse Harry of stealing Boomslang Skin, an ingredient in Polyjuice Potion that, at Hogwarts, can only be found in Snape's office. Not mentioned again until Barty Crouch Jr. is revealed to have been using it all year to disguise himself as Alastor Moody. | Is mentioned by both Moaning Myrtle, who claims she saw some in the pipes, and Severus Snape, who threatened to force-feed Harry Veritaserum to see if it had been he who was stealing the necessary ingredients. When Dumbledore learns in the end that Barty Crouch Jr. had been stealing these ingredients, he remarks to to Snape. |
| A Portkey's effects | Are described as being pulled by having a hook attached to one's navel. When one arrives at the destination they feel "unhooked." | When the party travels to the Quidditch World Cup, it appears that they travel at rapid speed across a great deal of land, and when they are nearly at their destination, they let go and are dropped there (quite violently, for those inexperienced with this method of travel). |
| The Priori Incantatem Explanation | Dumbledore explains to Harry (and very confused readers) why Harry's and Lord Voldemort's wands "united," in a sense, to reveal, in this order, smoky wisps resembling each of Cedric Diggory, Frank Bryce, Bertha Jorkins, Lily Potter, and James Potter. In brief, this is because both wands' cores contain a phoenix feather from the same phoenix, who happens to be Dumbledore's pet Fawkes. | No explanation ensues, which leaves the audience a bit confused if they are not readers of the book. The only reference to this strange magical happenning is when Dumbledore, in a private conversation to Harry, alludes to the fact that he "saw his parents that night." |
| The Quidditch World Cup match | Ludo Bagman announces the match. Prior to its start, leprechauns, representing the Irish team, and Veela, representing the Bulgarian team roar up the crowd. Harry, Hermione, and all the Weasleys present cheer on Ireland. By personal invitation, they sit in Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge's box. All three of Malfoy family is also present, as is Winky the House-Elf, and Barty Crouch Jr., though the latter is hidden under an Invisibility Cloak so it appears his seat is empty. The party watches the match, and Ireland wins. | Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic, announces the match. Prior to its start, leprechauns, representing the Irish team, and the Bulgarian players roar up the crowd. Hermione and all the Weasleys present save Ron wear green, the Irish color, while Harry and Ron wear red, the Bulgarian color. There is some tension as Draco Malfoy brags that he and his father are, by personal invitation, sitting in the Minister's box, while Harry, Hermione, and the Weasleys are sitting in the topmost seats. The game is not shown, and the only implication that Ireland may have won is George's line, "The Irish seem to have their cheer on," which is actually him mistaking the sounds of chaos for their reverie. |
| Reaction to Voldemort's Return | At the end of the book, Albus Dumbledore requests Sirius to "round up the old crowd," Snape to "perform a task" (this is revealed later in the series that the task was to respond to Lord Voldemort's call for his Death Eaters), and Madame Maxime and Hagrid to recruit the giants to join the Order. The Order is not referred to by name until its sequel, appropriately called Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Most notably, Dumbledore and Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge have a row in which Fudge refuses to believe that Voldemort's returned, which is a key plot point in the next book. | None of this occurs. |
| Rita Skeeter is a beetle Animagus | Hermione, at the end of the book, discovers that Rita is an unregistered Animagus. Hermione captures her in a jar and refuses to let her out for a year, due to her articles across the year that make Harry out to be a lunatic of sorts. | This subplot is entirely omitted, though it seems that in an original version of the script this storyline was included; when Madame Maxime and Hagrid dance and dicuss their giant heritage, Maxime pulls a bug from Hagrid's hair and eats it, which happens in the book. (A possible reason it was cut is that this somewhat humorous subplot may have clashed with the more emotional ending.) This may cause a plot hole in the next film, because Hermione's blackmailing of Rita in this way is the only reason why Rita does an interview with Harry about the return of Lord Voldemort. |
| The Second Task | Harry follows Moaning Myrtle while underwater, who takes him to the place where the captives are and where the merpeople live. | This task most closely resembles the book, in the sense that it is virtually as written, with the exception that Moaning Myrtle does not guide Harry; he follows a merperson. |
| Scoring in the Triwizard Tournament | For the first and second tasks, scoring was on a scale of one to ten, ten being the most impressive completion of the task, one being the least. Because the points were cumulative, the winner of the third task would thus win the entire Triwizard Tournament. Therefore, the first person (or, as the case was, persons) to touch the Triwizard cup would win. There would be no second or third (or fourth) places. | No definitive scoring system is made clear. It is said that Harry and Cedric are tied for the lead going into the third task, but it is not said how this placement is arrived at. |
| Sirius Black's role | Harry frequently writes to Sirius, and comes to regard him as a mixture of a father and brother. Sirius gives Harry advice in completing the First Task of the Triwizard Tournament, by appearing in the fire in the Gryffindor common room. He, Ron and Hermione visit Sirius on a Hogsmeade weekend. Sirius appears in the final hospital room scene as well, and he and Snape share a moment where they shake hands bitterly. Dumbledore introduces Sirius as a member of the "good side" to Molly Weasley, who heretofore had considered him an escaped convict. | The only scene featuring Sirius is when his head appears in the fire in the Gryffindor common room. Thus, Harry does not start to regard Sirius as he does in the book, which may present a problem for Sirius' death in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. |
| S.P.E.W. | The Society for the Promotion of Elfish Welfare is an association Hermione forms in this book after displaying outrage at the “outrageous abuse of our fellow magical creatures” she believes she’s observed after seeing the “unfair” sacking of Winky and finding out that Hogwarts employs a vast number of house-elves. She forces Harry and Ron into joining, but even Hagrid doesn’t join, because Hermione doesn’t understand what everyone else constantly tells her- house-elves like serving humans, and won’t even consider being set free. Hermione’s efforts take up a great portion of the book, and is also a large part of the 5th book. | Partly due to the exclusion of house-elves altogether in the movie, there is no mention of S.P.E.W., nor Hermione’s extreme views on their servitude. |
| The Third Task | The four champions are told of the maze and obstacle course one month prior to the actual event, as the tall but unmagical hedges begin to be grown on the Quidditch Field. When he enters the maze at the start of the Task, Harry notices a suspicious lack of obstacles, because Barty Crouch Jr. had cleared as many in Harry's path as he thought he could without Harry getting too suspicious. The champions meet, among other beasts, one of Hagrid’s now enormous Blast-Ended Skrewts, a Boggart, an Acromantula, an enchanted mist that apparently makes the world seem to turn upside down when one walks through it, and a Sphinx whose riddle must be answered in order to proceed; this final beast is paralleled to Oedipus. Fleur screams, and Harry finds her and leaves her lying on the ground, but sends up sparks, indicating her fall to the faculty patrolling the maze. Viktor Krum, under the Imperius Curse cast by Crouch Jr. (although it is not known until later), uses the Cruciatus Curse on Cedric. Harry Stuns Krum. | No obstacles beside the maze itself appear, but the maze has the unique ability to close in on the champions, such as when it engulfs Fleur. Viktor Krum, visibly under the Imperius Curse cast by Crouch Jr., attempts to use the Killing Curse on Cedric, who doges it and uses "Expelliarmus" (the disarming spell) to Stun Krum. |
| Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes | Fred and George begin selling their jokes by mail order. They prank Harry’s cousin Dudley by "accidentally" dropping several Ton Tongue Toffees – Dudley, a glutton on a forced diet, soon has a foot-long tongue protruding from his mouth; at the Quidditch World Cup they impress Ludo Bagman, Head of the Department of Magical Games and Sports at the Ministry of Magic with their fake wands. When Harry wins the 1000 Galleon prize of the Triwizard Tournament, he gives it to Fred and George to support their idea of creating a joke shop. | Owing to the cutting of Ludo Bagman, the Dursleys, and any cash prizes from the Triwizard Tournament, this entire subplot is cut. Possibly as a way to give Fred and George some money after all, the twins run a betting system for each task of the Tournament. |
