I have not been thrilled with the Harry Potter series of films so far. I thought the first one was “ok”… the second one was “not great”… and the third one was a total waste of time. However, there have been a few promising signs that this fourth installment of the Harry Potter franchise, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, will exceed the previous efforts. Let’s hope so.
Now, this little bit of new has hit the net. Apparently Variety is reporting that Warner Bros. will be the exclusive distributor of “Goblet of Fire” to IMAX theaters worldwide. I find this news a little curious since I don’t really consider there to be much in the first 3 films worth putting up in an IMAX format. The visuals have been alright… but nothing to really write home about. I haven’t read Harry Potter and the Goblet yet, so I don’t know if there are any “breathtaking” visuals that will really lend themselves to the IMAX format or not. I guess we’ll see. [via]
