Not the best of the series, but not the worst. The 3-D Imax version saved it from being second worst.
Why is Hermione giving me the finger on the artwork?

Thought it could have been a lot better but definitely not the worst.The editing is strange in this one.Great book!
are the HD versions 2-disc editions?
SWEET! 2 disc standard DVD is mine!
Esily the best Harry Potter movie and one of the best of 07!
cant wait to get this. why released so late tho? thought it would have been in november. either way i like the cover. i was afraid they would use the poster with all the kids and make it look like the 4th ones cover. i hope they keep this cover i like it.
She's giving the finger cos she's a teenager hehe, roll on the college years!!
I wonder how soon the previous films are coming on High-Def?
I wish they'd kept the original movie poster art, that way, it matches the earlier release styles.
Did anyone else like the soundtrack to this one? I thouht it was really well done. I didn't miss John Williams with this one, not like GOF.

I've missed him since PoA. Goblet's score is okay, and this one is slightly better, but I wish John would come back...
...which I read he has voiced he hopes to return for Deathly Hallows. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Great movie -- the best Harry Potter movie out there now, heck I think it's even better than POA. And Michael Goldenberg did a great job with adapting the book and even with all the massive cuts (such as the Weasley is Our King subplot and the omission of Quidditch), it was faithful to the spirit of the book. Too bad Goldenberg won't be back for "Half-Blood Prince" and probably "Deathly Hallows".
Shame Warners is continuing with their tradition of omitting commentary tracks on their HP releases. And the HD-DVD release won't be a combo... hurray!

The features sound unimpressive. I want to see the back cover to see the official features. But I like that cover art, it's very simple and not too over-crowded.
This was definitely my least favorite since the first one but still a pretty decent movie. I've got the other four so I'll definitely pick up the single disc version at some point.
I'll pick it up. But my least fave in the series. Then again, it was still great.
The cover art is s**t though.

I for one loved the Harry Potter series. But this one was a complete mess. Needed soem serious cofee to stay awake. I'll pick it up in order to have complete set. But, believe you me, it won't be on my "wow I have to watch it again" list
not quite as good as "azkaban," but definitely one of the best in the series. looked great on imax too.
What no conversation with the trio???????????????
I am pissed about that is anyone else pissed about that?

Can't wait for this one! I saw it twice at the theater and loved it. I'm still not sure if I like it better than POA, but I'm sure multiple DVD viewings will determine that eventually. I wish it had been a bit longer (some scenes seemed truncated, ending before they should have), but otherwise a really good movie.
And I did like Nicholas Hooper's score, my fave since POA.

Count me in for the 2 disc. I always enjoy the HP movies, just annoyed that the books get longer while the running time on each movie stays the same. I would gladly sit through a longer movie, but then again I guess they think most kids won't. Can't wait to add this to my other HP dvds.
Eh...I actually thought this was the worse of the five films...I didn't gave it a perfect rating like the previous four films.
Any news on a Boxset? Other sites have them listed as "Announced", but with no release date.

It'll include a Harry Potter DVD game Hogwarts Challenge, along with a bonus disc containing over 2 hours of enhanced content, an exclusive "Harry Potter's Bookmark Collection", and collectible trading cards. Not got the artwork yet though.

Awesome, thank you.
I don't know if you know (you probably do), word is that the HD-DVD version is going to have exclusive bonus features NOT included in the BluRay?
From HighDefDigest
Quote: Not unlike the recently-released '300' and 'Blood Diamond,' the HD DVD edition of 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' will contain a trio of exclusive bonus features, including a "In-Movie Experience" video commentary featuring "the cast from Dumbledore's Army coming together to share memorable moments," the ability to "Pick Your Favorite Scenes" and assemble your favorite clips from the movie into a montage, and additional web-enabled content including downloads and other goodies to be announced.

No idea
Not had a press release yet
What are these various making of features????
what?
This was easily the worst of the movies. The screenplay was horrible. I'm extremely excited that Steve Kloves is back for Half Blood Prince. The directing was good, but the screenplay was the worst of the 5.

Will Warners provide the single-disc art yet, as well as back art for the DVD, HD-DVD and Blu-ray releases soon?

Really? In movies 3 and 4, Kloves made up scenes that weren't in the book (such as McGonagall teaching the students to dance and giving Hermione more lines than Ron), which was annoying. Aside from the major cuts, Goldenberg paid homage to things that were largely omitted from the book (such as a brief glimpse of Sirius's mother's portrait) and watching the movie, one doesn't need to have read the book to fully understand the movie. And plus, Ron and Hermione had equal time in the movie.
I think one is confusing the screenplay (which was probably a three-hour-long rough cut) with what was shot but removed in the editing room. But anyway...

Loved this movie. It and "Prisoner of Azkaban" are the best in the series so far IMO. Can't wait to pick this up.
It was a big disappointment, but not as bad as "Spider-Man 3" was. Figured it was going to be released in December.




I like the cover art. I hope that will be the 2-disc art if they are releasing single and double disc sets.
