Meh, I really don't care for the movies. I don't think they do the feel of the series any justice. It 20 years, I hope someone who grew up reading the books makes new movies. Or even better, a miniseries for each book. HBO could do well with something like that, and a format like that would let them tell the story without cutting most of it away.
I stopped watching after the second one. Books are better.
Also, lock your door and hide in the basement if you have one 
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

'Kay, we should stop being silly now. Some folk might wanna talk about the pretty new book cover. I think it's the best one so far! *does happy dance of Potter excitement*

Huh. So in the US version he's a Browncoat... and in the UK version he appears to be using a Stargate...

The two covers clearly depict different incidents in the book. The full American cover (wraparound style) is pretty intriguing, since it shows Harry and You-Know-Who together but not deulling each other. What could they possibly be looking at?

I always had a feeling harry was a browncoat.
The movies wouldn't be half bad if they would have kept Alfonso Cuaron as the director.
For those who don't know he directed Azkaban.

I'm surprised by the color scheme of this cover art in the US version. The covers for Phoenix and Prince were dark, creepy, monochrome, and entirely fitting with the increasingly dark nature of the plot as a whole.
While it's obviously true that in this book Harry has to ultimately triumph, it's probably a safe bet that he's going to do so at terrible personal cost - even more so than he already has. (Hopefully - please JKR - not Ginny...)
I was expecting something like a deep purple or even black as the primary color for the cover of this one. Not a triumphal gold. Doesn't set the mood I would have expected for the direction things are going in the story...
