Harry Potter Moment of the Week (8): Favorite Triwizard Task

Harry Potter Moment of the Week is a meme hosted by Uncorked Thoughts. The aim of this meme is to share with fellow bloggers a character, spell, chapter, object or quote from the books/films/J. K. Rowling herself or anything Potter related! A list of upcoming topics can be found here.

This week's topic is:
Favorite Triwizard Task

My favorite task in the Triwizard Tournament has to be the first task, the task where the champions have to steal a golden egg from a dragon. Why is this one my favorite? Well, besides my love for dragons and all their awesomeness, this task's favoritism is won through the beautiful process of elimination. The second task was awful. Not only is one of your closest pals at the bottom of the Black Lake, but you also have to go face-to-face with ugly-butt mermaids. No thank you. I'd much rather take my chances with a Hungarian Horntail. The third task is no better; it's a giant maze. I hate mazes—they scare me. If I was stuck in one, I'd be lost forever. So, that is why the dragons are my first pick.

  1. Mazes really are scary! I'd probably get stuck in one forever as well, not to mention if I managed to 'win' only to meet Voldemort? Yeah thanks but no thanks.
    Awesome pick ^^

  2. LOVE dragons too, the first task is brilliant and really intense too! I loved learning about the different dragons but I was always TERRIFIED for Harry that he ends up with the Horntail...and fighting with Ron to boot :*( Honestly though, all the tasks are equal parts amazing and terrifying to me >.< but I've always had a weird fascination with mazes...even though I'd probably end up lost in the darn thing too! Great choice^^

    1. Yeah, I liked learning about the dragons too. They were all so beautiful yet different from each other. It would be Harry's luck to get stuck with one of the more dangerous dragons, lol.

  3. Love the dragon part! In the movie I always wish we could've seen little figurines of all the dragons. How neat would that be??? I always want to see how the other players got past the dragons too!!

    1. It would have been super cool to see how the others got past their dragons! I've never really thought of it before and now I'm curious, haha.
