Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Front-Runner Starts strong, fades late
2005 · Adventure, Fantasy · Mike Newell

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire builds an impressive record against weaker competition — then loses it in the late rounds. At 52% overall, the number flatters it slightly. The installment where the franchise stopped being safe. Cedric Diggory dying in a graveyard while Voldemort returns gave voters their first real stakes, and that tonal shift — from school adventure to genuine danger — is what they remember when it appears on a ballot.

Synopsis

When Harry Potter's name emerges from the Goblet of Fire, he becomes a competitor in a grueling battle for glory among three wizarding schools—the Triwizard Tournament. But since Harry never submitted his name for the Tournament, who did? Now Harry must confront a deadly dragon, fierce water demons and an enchanted maze only to find himself in the cruel grasp of He Who Must Not Be Named.

The ceiling

61% to 50% to 29%. The decline is steady rather than sudden — Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire doesn't collapse, it gradually meets its match. The films at the top of the bracket are a different class.

The extremes tell a clear story — 67% against Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 at one end, 0% against Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban at the other.
