I said the exact same thing to my friend after seeing the movie and the 
interviews, etc. I think it has to do with the hair. It was shorter on the sides 
for the movie, giving it that almost spiky look to the top that we all are so 
glad of for Harry ;-) Once he let it grow on the sides and back again, he looked 
almost the same as he did for the COS premier a few years ago. I remember 
thinking when   I saw the premier footage - gee, he looks younger here than in 
the movie ;-)

I also agree about the color - the overall tones used in POA were darker, 
which may have made his hair look darker than in the previous movies. Lighting is 
an amazing thing in films - it's one of those things that most people don't 
really notice all that much, but can have a profound effect on the finished 
product.
