Movie
Review: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
By Alli Perry
Harry Potter once again works magic into his faithful fans’ hearts
with his fourth movie. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,
grossed $101.4 million in its opening weekend. Harry Potter fans across
the country are addicted to the Harry Potter phenomenon. People dressed
up and waited in line for the doors to open for the midnight showing
of the new movie. This film is action packed, with a comedic twist,
and the realistic special effects.
Harry Potter and his three friends had to overcome the fact that it
was time to leave their childhood in the past, and move forward with
a more mature lifestyle. Harry’s name was mysteriously placed in the
cup for him to participate in an extremely difficult tournament, and
he was not even old enough to be picked to compete. He seemed to have
to deal with to many pressures at once it is as if you were watching
his life unravel before your eyes. He had to find a date to the Yole
ball, prepare for the tournament, and try to mend his friendship with
Ron. The special effects did a good job of drawing the viewer into
the movie and making them feel as if they were spectators watching
their tournament. It is difficult to choose just one highlight moment
of the movie; the entire movie keeps the viewer entertained. The shocking
return of an enemy creates a suspenseful seat-grabbing ending. If
you have not seen this movie yet, watch all three of the then go see
this one it will be well worth the time and money spent.

JV Boys Soccer: Starting
Fresh
Usually, the boys J.V. roster is filled with quite a few freshmen.
As there is no freshmen soccer team, it is not at all unusual to see
some of Valley's newest students squaring off against some teams,
like Mitty and Bellarmine, who are chock full of sophomores and even
juniors. Naturally, putting freshman and juniors together seems slightly...
unfair. Things are going to be different this year.

Embarrassing Holiday Moment?

you can avoid or prevent, they are just part of life that most people
have learned to accept and shake off. Christmas brings joy but it
can also bring several embarrassing moments that a majority of people
would much rather forget. The events of Christmas such as the putting
up of the Christmas tree, or maybe trying to put together some of
the presents that say "assembly required" can bring those
most memorable Christmas moments.
