Mugglenet posted an article “17 Thoughts Whilst Re-Watching Goblet of Fire” (you can thank Jules for finding this) and well I couldn’t go past Thought No. 3:
“I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed Robert Pattinson in this movie as Cedric Diggory. I found him to be extremely charming — especially since he wasn’t glittering in the sun.”
That would be because Rob IS extremely charming.
and
Thought No 12 Cedric Diggory and the Suggestive Suggestions
“Surely I’m not the only Harry Potter fan out there who cracks up at this scene? There are plenty of GIFs floating around on the internet that have ruined this scene for me. Truthfully, though, the GIFs are correct. When I came upon this scene, I kept laughing at how suggestive Cedric’s face is while he’s telling Harry that the Prefects’ Bathroom is an excellent place for a bath when speaking of how to solve the riddle within the golden egg.
His face, his eyebrows, his sly, yet nervous smile, paired with Harry’s incredulous expression add to the glorious suggestiveness of this scene. I loved it.”
And I have to agree with Morgan’s comments about Amos Diggory:
“Someone told me awhile ago that the way Amos Diggory wails over his son’s dead body is how a parent actually feels when they lose their child. Whenever Amos rushed down the stairs and yelled, “That’s my boy!†and began screaming while holding onto Cedric’s dead body, I lost it. It was incredible acting and packed with so much emotion. I felt as though I’d been punched in the stomach. My heart broke into so many pieces that I’m still trying to put it back together.
and Dumbledore’s final speech:
“Because I was already crying over Cedric’s death and Amos’s despair, I continued to cry during Dumbledore’s final speech. Dumbledore said, with so much passion,
“Today we acknowledge a really terrible loss. Cedric Diggory was, as you all know, exceptionally hard working, infinitely fair-minded, and most importantly, a fierce, fierce friend. Therefore, I feel you have the right to know exactly how he died. You see, Cedric Diggory was murdered by Lord Voldemort. The Ministry of Magic does not wish me to tell you this, but not to do so I feel would be an insult to his memory. Now the pain we all feel at this dreadful loss reminds me, and, reminds us, that though we may come from different countries and speak in different tongues, our hearts beat as one. In light of the recent events, the bonds of friendship made this year will be more important than ever. Remember that, and Cedric Diggory will not have died in vain. You remember that, and we’ll celebrate a boy who was kind, and honest, and brave, and true. Right to the very end.â€
Yeah I find it difficult to watch both these scenes and I recently watched GoF on my last holiday thanks to the airline screening it on my flight!
And here’s a few more HQ reminders of Rob as Cedric.
Me too. Those scenes get me every time. 🙁
