While I had heard about the books and it would have been had to miss the
first movie, I didn't actually read any of the books until someone had taken
me to see the CoS movie. I then speed read the first 4 books in the 2 weeks
I had off work over Chirstmas and New Years, saw the first movie on DVD and
haven't looked back :)

Mind you, the way I did it has given me an odd baises. I like Lockhart,
simply because I like Kenneth Branagh - who was one of the main reasons I
agreed to go see CoS in the first place. My mental version of Snape is also
based on the movie Snape and Alan Rickman, instead of the canon book Snape,
because of this Snape has become my favourite character by a long shot and
the only character I came to really like, from the books alone, was Lupin.
