Goblet is without a doubt my favorite of the series, read it for the fifth time a month or two ago. Can only imagine how the new movie is gonna come out, but here\'s the first teaser LINK, requires iTunes no iTunes link right click, save as

Not anymore! Last night was my last night, and thank goodness I don\'t have to work there again next semester, not that its a bad job since they pay you for basically doing nothing, its just really boring when you don\'t have any homework to do as I have for the last 3 months.

4 days. . . .

BUMP!

I have every intention on getting pretty drunk and going to Barnes and Noble for the midnight release party. Should be an interesting sight to see: a drunk antbach at a release party with a bunch of 12 year olds and their parents. . .

I tried reading the first one and got as far as about Chapter 6 before thinking to myself, "This is sub-standard Roald Dahl."

I agree they make good stories to be made into what used to be called a family film, but I\'m not convinced they are particularly great works of literature. If you want good fiction for teenagers (and adults), check out G.P. Taylor\'s Shadowmancer or Phillip Pullman\'s Dark Materials Trilogy - far more satisfying.
