Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Questions

Bring on the tough stuff. There’s not just one right answer.

  1. Why in the world would anyone allow students to compete in a potentially fatal tournament?
  2. What do you make of how the other schools/their students are represented?
  3. Harry is definitely going through a lot of changes. What are the most major events that seem likely to affect his character and outlook, and why?
  4. Why do you think Ron got so upset when Harry's name made it into the Goblet of Fire?
  5. Why does Cedric have to die? Can't he just get injured? Why is his death important to the story?
  6. Why don't villains ever just kill people when they first get a chance? Not that we're complaining—Harry's still alive, after all.
  7. What's going to happen with Ron and Hermione? Will Ron finally stop playing dumb and ask Hermione out?
  8. And what about Cho and Harry? Sadly, Cho's single at the end of the film, and not happy about it. Is there any hope for these two?
