I am a BIG DVD fan.  As such, I find myself dissappointed time and 
time again, with the Potter DVDs' extra features.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are some gripes:

#1 Movie Version WITH commentary...I would have LOVED to hear insight 
on why certain scenes were added, how actors interpreted things, and 
just plain silly anecdotes on the moment.

#2 More cut scenes, please also WITH commentary.

#3 I understand all the cute games and such are fun for the kids, but 
PLEASE provide EASY to see SHORTCUTS for adults and kids who may not 
want to be bothered.

#4 Where were the rest of the Gryffindors? and Sltyherins? How about 
interviewing the Weasley's?

#5 More on details of the production that weren't highlighted but 
were CLEARLY from the book (like the blast-ended skrut(sp.?), Hagrid 
fed.

Maurader's Map design, etc...

----------------------------------------------------------------------

On the Plus side...

#1 Glad to see a more cast inclusive interview section! :-)

#2 Actors from the film included in the room tours, nice touch. 

#3 Sir Cadogan (feeling up a maiden, no less)!!

#4 Though, I've stated many times, that I'm not a fan of the early 
films, I found the tying together of Columbus and Cuaron very 
tasteful. :-)


I can't say it enough, commentary, commentary, commentary, PLEASE!!!

Next time, PLEASE inlcude a commentary version. ;-)
