Its a good think I already have all four. But I do plan to buy all seven in a box set when it is available. It's a smart idea but, it may have good and bad consequences. The good, the fans that discover the series later will go out and buy them as soon as they are rereleased. The bad, the fans that can't wait til they are rereleased will get the films through illegal methods. Oh well, I guess we will just have to wait and see what happens.

Erm.... oookay..... why, again? haha Shouldn't the movies be OUT because by winter of 2007 the 7th book will be here, and the 5th movie will have hit theaters a bit ago? hahha hmmmm seems like a pretty weird idea to me... lol

They will go into the valut & be re-released later. Good marketing ploy.
I do own all of the movies on DVD, too but maybe I should get back-up's just in case.
See... they're making more $$$ already... LOL

Hmm, definately reminds me of the "Walt Disney Vault!" I'm sure they'll rerelease them when OOtP comes out on DVD and release a new box ser as well too! You know how big time companies work; anything to make more money! Still, glad I have all the DVD's now-cuz then I can rewatch them and lend them to new viewers!

Yep. This sounds like a marketing stunt to me. They will bring them back eventually to increase sales.
