I think it'll be interesting to see how they'll film the Seventh one. Rowling spent half the time giving the main characters Polyjuice potion to avoid capture. We'll probably not even see the child actors for most of the movie without significant retooling.

Reading the new book seems a bit of a by numbers exercise. Probably because what I hadn't already worked out for myself was already figured out by everyone else on the Internet two years ago.

The Fifth movie was very well made as far as I thought. Though the death of a certain key character was even more anticlimatic than it was in the book (as were the deaths of two other characters in the latest book). I think that's impressive in a way, since they're not giving us a sappy Hollywood boo-hoo death sequence... but still, a little unceremonious.
