Warner Bros. announced
today a collectible gift set and high-definition versions of all the previous Harry Potter films, available for purchase Dec. 11 along with the debut of Order of the Phoenix on home video.
The gift set will include bonus discs featuring a "Hogwarts Challenge" and three hours of all-new content, as well as souvenir bookmarks and trading cards:
The 12-disc Limited Edition Gift Set comes in a magnificent collectible 'suitcase', and includes two-disc editions of all five Harry Potter films and, for the first time on DVD, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. The Harry Potter Limited Edition DVD Gift Set will be available in Standard Definition for $119.97 and on HD DVD and Blu-ray for $149.99.
Seperately, WB is offering high-definition versions of each film, a promise they made last July:
"Pottermania" continues as the Harry Potter films 1-4 are offered for the first time in HD DVD and Blu-ray ($29.99). The High Definition versions will include all the extra content of the Giftset's two-disc versions and, for a limited time only, both versions will contain a set of four trading cards specific to the title purchased. The Harry Potter films 1-3 will be available individually in Standard Definition also with the trading cards, at a new low price (each $14.97). Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is only available at this price for 60 days, after which it will sell for $19.97.

Start saving up people! It won't be cheap!
Although, I'm wondering whether it's worthwhile to buy a HD/DVD. Is the difference in quality that obvious?
I'll wait until all 7 movies are available on DVD ...

Great way to get all the movies if you do not have them. I will be buying standard definition two disks for now. Then when all the films are out, I will get the upgraded films. Who knows they might even have IMAX 3D by then.

Sounds really cool. I might ask for it for Christmas.
Does anyone know what exactly they mean by "three hours of all-new content"? Is it like more deleted scenes? Or just games and stuff?

Oh my God I have to have it! It is so expensive! It will be my entire Christmas in one little package! But it will be so worth it! I can't wait! Just think how much it will cost if they do the sam etype of collection when the seventh film is released on DVD. Oh my...I can't imagine the cost!

Wow, I'd love the gift set but it's waaaay too expensive... plus I already have all the other DVDs. And I don't have HD, so I'll just spring for the regular 2-disc one.

That's pretty cool. However I don't want 2 versions of the same movie. I don't want to spend that much money.. maybe I'll get a neat boxset when the series is finished, not now only after 5 films.

I already have all the other movies, but I guess it will be nice for a newer HP fan to be able to receive them like that as a nice gift.

You know, I'd rather just get the next 3 on HD-DVD rather than see them again in HD. Its very expensive, though. I don't have that kind of money. I just hope they put all 7 of them in that kind of gift package, that would be so cool!

Yeah, I'm just getting the two disc standard definition OotP for now too. We don't even have an HD TV right now (yeah, we had wooly mamoths deliver our current TV set for us when we bought it back in the Ice Age) so it'd be silly to get the discs in HD, for us. I'm sure we'll have HD capabilities by the time DH comes out on DVD though, so we'll be waiting to get the whole set then.

I would really like to see all the extra stuff on the special edition but I do not think I want to pay that much for them.

I should read more carefully. Good to know the first four will be cheaper for a while I need and new copy of SS a piece of plastic broke off of the center and I am afraid it might hurt my DVD player.

I have already got the first four DVDs, so I will only buy the Order of the Phoenix DVD now.
Might get a box set of all 7 films, if and when it is available though.
