Picked up the set today
While I'm new to HD DVD's, from the few I've seen, I'm very impressed with this set. Going from the first 2 movies seen so far, the graphics are VERY crisp and clear, so much though that sometimes you can see the difference between live actors and the CGI sets, something more blurred out from the less sharp DVD's.
The sound is great, after watching 'Phantom of the Opera' by ALW, I was a little disappointed in its sound, and was hoping that the HP set was not as bad, and I was happy to find that the sound was great!
Extras, the three plus hours of extras on the bonus DVD is nice, there's a card set that's like the cards in the 'Chocolate Frogs' which comes in the envelope invitation to Hogwarts in the first movie. A very impressive bookmarker set within with a flying broom letter opener, three bookmarker in the shape of a owl, seeker ball and the snake symbol from the second movie as well as a Gryffindor badge. All in steel and would I think cost a bit if sold separately.
It all comes in a nice box that's shaped like Harry's trunk, everything nicely packaged and sweet. As for the price, if your want all five movies you're already looking at $130+ for the HD versions, so if you can afford it, this is a cheaper way to go and one of the better Limited Edition Box Set's as I've seen, whether it's HD, regular DVD's or VHS.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix HD DVD PiP ROCKS!
The HD DVD version of "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" is amazing! The PiP feature along with the little featurettes you can immediately switch over to while watching the film is absolutely one of the most outstanding gifts this Hi-Def version has going for it. It is truly enjoyable to watch the actors of the film talk to you about the scenes and give their little tidbits and inside information on what went into the making of the film. The PiP experience is a wonderful and personal way to enjoy this or any other HD DVD that has it and I can't praise this superior technology enough. I got the years 1-5 special boxed set edition so all the added "making of" specials included on the bonus disc is also a big plus for getting this special HD DVD edition. Of course, some people would rather wait until they finish the final film in the series to get a boxed set, but if your are a true Harry Potter fan then do yourself a favor and get the HD DVD boxed set now rather then wait until sometime after 2010 when the 7th film is slated for completion.
amazing, great upgrade
i got my set today, i sold my 1 - 4 boxset over a week ago on amazon and i got 50 bux, the box is awesome it comes in, and all the dvd cases are very nice, i really like the bookmarks...
i only checked out one of the dvds so far which was prisoner and it looks amazing. i had to check out my favorite scene where the dementors come inside the train, and that looked beautiful then i checked out the scenes in the snow cause snow always looks awesome in hd
and if any of you were wondering, there is no dual layer skip on the part where harry is using the map and snape catches him, i always hated that on the standard dvd
