Now me:
I do remember seeing movie posters for CoS showing a green eyed 
Daniel Radcliff as HP.  Wish I could site it for you, but I believe 
it was in the subway in NYC.  I remember very clearly thinking he has 
blue eyes in the movie and they had deliberately changed the colour 
on the poster?  Seems odd. Why would they bother?

I also hope there is no plot clash too, but I can easily see Warner 
Bros., suddenly showing us green eyed Harry if they choose to, and it 
does become an important plot point in the future.  Movie facts are 
so disposable and seem to be changed whenever the need is present. 

Mandy.
