I also thought the cover pic looked cheesy.  There is something about 
the child who plays Harry that is just wide of the mark for me.  (In 
contrast, R and H look spot on to me).  I think it is the smile.  He 
smiles in a lot of his pics, even in the scene when he is showing Ron 
his scar.  I'm concerned.  Very concerned.  

Now, I have only seen stills and the web version of the trailer.  So 
can someone set me straight:  did they cast Harry correctly, or did 
they err?
