The movie adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire has received a Hugo nomination in the Best Dramatic Presentation, Long Form category. It's up against Batman Begins, Serenity, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, and Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

Serenity is probably the movie to beat in this category; while it didn't have mainstream success, it has a large and loyal fan base within science-fiction fandom.

Goblet of Fire is of course the one Harry Potter novel to win the Best Novel Hugo. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was nominated but lost to A Deepness in the Sky in 2000, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood-Prince was eligible this year but it wasn't nominated.

The Hugos will be awarded on the Saturday evening of L.A.con IV, the last night of the convention. L.A.Con IV takes place at Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California, on Wednesday August 23rd thru Sunday August 27th, 2006
