Movie Changing Book Perceptions

So what about everybody else? Has the movie changed
your mental images? Do you now think of Daniel, Rupert
and Emma when you think of the Trio? Or were your
original ideas left more or less alone? 

Well, last week was the first time since I saw the
film (3 times) that I reread one of the books (PoA)
and I was really curious as to how my mental images
are going to react to the movie ones while reading. 
Most of the sets from the movie were so good that I
''let them stay'' :) The Diagon Alley especially.
Others are a mix of those from the film and those from
before. Except Hagrid's hut, which is supposed to be
wooden. And I didn't like the forest so much. 
>From the caracters the only one that really took over
was Robbie Coltrane. My Hagrid was completly wrong.
The big battle was between my Harry and Dan. I really
like Daniel, he's cute and his version of Harry is
great but he's different from my Harry. And so my
Harry kept his place. That doesn't mean I like Daniel
any less, though. And my Draco looks a little more
like Tom now, because I didn't have a very vivid image
of him. Everybody else stayad the same as before. 
The quidditch clothes and the balls were great and
they are what I see. I can imagine quidditch even
better than they showed it though. And I had this view
of the places for the spectators that is completly
different and I kept that.
