I feel your pain. My husband has only seen the films in theaters one 
time each and thinks our two boys and I are weird to pay again to 
see it in the theater. He does watch it repeatedly on the DVDs and 
has pointed out that he missed things the first time around. As for 
an IMAX experience...I usually have to wait a few months at least 
for POA I did. There are two IMAX theaters in the Phoenix area and 
one got both POA and GOF about when they were released and it of 
course is the one that is 50 plus miles on the other side of town 
from me (one way). The one close to me has to wait until it has been 
there awhile before it gets it. That one is currently showing Polar 
Express. Anyway, I WILL see it in IMAX with my boys (and hubby if we 
can drag him since he really liked this one) but it probably wont 
arrive until mid to late January. (POA didn't come to it until mid 
August after the June 4th release that year). Anyway, best of luck 
with getting to see it in IMAX Valerie and I agree about the Narnia 
comment. I haven't seen it yet and grew up loving those books but 
they are totally different than HP. Also, my 5th grader saw it on a 
school field trip and he has read the book recently and said "it was 
ok but I liked the GOF better". I think there was not enough action 
in it for him - he didn't say but it is a mother's feeling. He loves 
the dragon scene in GOF.
