I was gonna put this in the books section, then the movies section, but I got confused and so put it here So which is better: the books or the movies?

I voted for the movies because watching stuff is easier than reading and requires less thinkage. Altho I'm starting to wish I'd voted for the books now...cos they're fab...damn my indecisiveness

The books are just so entertaining.. I cant put them down til Im done reading.. and JK uses a style that I can see things better.. and I have my own movie in my head.. heh... (you dont wanna go there trust me).... I cant wait til HBP...
they butcher the movies.. yes.. there are scenes that are wonderful.. but so many are cut and or changed.. that bother the hell out of me.. wrong characters doing and sayijng things.. ackkk...
of course.. Alan Rickman as Snape... mmmmmmmmmm not enough of him! ;D

Clearly... the books... there is more information and more detail, and characters aren't overlooked as a lot of them are in the movies (time constraints, etc...)... I do love the movies though, the actors are great, I love the English-ness of it all

LOL! I didn't actually buy the book, my mum did, but I think she pre-ordered it anyway so we would be assured of getting a copy rather than having to wait in a line for one

I prefer the books! The movies are a catastrophe- or at least the POA movie is!

The books by a mile. The one thing I hate about the movies is the way so much is cut out in order to make it fit the two and a half hour mark. JK puts that stuff in her books for a reason!! I like all the intricacies of the books as you really get to know the characters in depth. In the films you only get half the story. (i do love the films though by the way!! )
