If HP movies are done for television, I would like 
to see them done as mini-series.  GOF and OOP would 
really benefit from that format, although the special 
effects might suffer due to a lesser budget. 

Then again, this is HP, they know they'll get ratings 
plus DVD sales.  If it's a channel like Showtime or 
HBO, they'll have the added benefit of getting more 
subscribers.

PS/SS, CoS, and POA wouldn't be hurt by the mini-series 
format either.  Just think of all the scenes, that were 
cut for time in CoS that would have helped people who 
hadn't read the book understand the "Heir of Slytherin" 
plot better.

They'll definately "continue to generate interest", I 
hope we do get new HP movies.  I enjoyed PS/SS and CoS, 
but there was room for improvement.

Actually, I cut them more slack on PS/SS, because they 
had so much introduction to cover, but CoS definately 
could have benefited from a different script and direction.
