Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes

Fun Harry Potter Facts

Amy Brantley
Many fans will tell you that they did look forward to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. But, they also knew that the film wouldn't be as great as the first three films. This was because the book wasn't as good as the first three had been. Still, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was successful. With this success also came even more movie mistakes. Here are just a few of the fun mistakes from the movie Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: Just Where Is the Stagecoach?

In the scene where the Beauxbatons arrive, there is a stagecoach pulled by seven winged horses. The characters, which are there for their arrival, are looking in all different directions. This was of course because the stagecoach was digitally animated. But this mistake could have been avoided, simply by telling the actors which way to look.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: No Saxophones?

In the ball scene of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, there are band members playing saxophones. But, no saxophones can be heard in the music.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: Who's Towel Is that Anyways?

Harry Potter emerges from the water, after completing the Triwizard task, and Hermione drapes her towel over his shoulder. But, in the next shot the towel is back around her shoulders. Then the towel moves, yet again, to Harry's shoulders.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: Didn't He Tell Him to Get More Towels?

In the same scenes, Seamus tells Dean to go get more towels. Dean runs off to get more towels, but in the next shot he is still stands next to Dean. There are several mistakes that revolve around this one scene of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: What Is With That Note?

There are actually a couple mistakes that revolve around the note that the twins give to Ron during the ball. The first mistake simply involves the writing moving from the top of the paper to the middle of the paper. In the second mistake there are fewer sentences in the second shot of the note.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: Moody Can't Spell?

In the scene where Moody is the teaching the class the Unforgivable Curse. Moody writes the "unforgiveable" on the black board, instead of "unforgivable". Whether or not this mistake was intentional or not is uncertain.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: Just What Was Lily Potter?

Towards the end of the movie, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Voldemort tells Harry Potter that he had a "filthy Muggle mother". This is a huge mistake. Lily Potter was born to Muggles, but she was not a Muggle. The script probably should have read that she was a "filthy Mudblood mother".

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Movie Mistakes: Dead People Can Blink?

Another mistake that takes place in the scene of this movie is when Cedric Diggory blinks. This doesn't seem like a big deal until you consider the fact that Cedric is supposed to be dead.
