WHV HD DVDs offer resolution six times higher than regular DVDs, as well as vibrant color, contrast, and sound.
Remember, you can still purchase the standard HP DVDs through our shop.

HDTV News has a very positive review of the recently released Goblet of Fire High-Definition DVD: The Goblet of Fire is possibly one of the best HD transfers to date, with clean crisp pictures looking stunning and at times almost 3D like in quality. Warner have made a real effort to provide all of their High Definition release with Dolby TrueHD which adds to the superb mix, especially when pushed through a decent quality amp. The whole experience is an assault on the senses that will leave you demanding more of the same. Unfortunately, these discs require a very pricey HD DVD player or an XBOX 360 with a separate HD add-on. Prices for this new technology will likely decrease over the next year.

Various details concerning the upcoming Order of the Phoenix DVD release are slowly starting to emerge.
The Movie Informer has received what looks to be the front and back cover the 2-disc Special Edition DVD. Check it out right here! The back lists several bonus features, including:
- Additional Scenes
- Conversations with the Cast
- Reflections on the Fifth Film
- The Noble House of Black
- A New Order
- Ministry Mysteries
- Flight of the Phoenix
- Theatrical Trailers
- EA Game Demo
While this picture of the front and back cover do look pretty promising, this is still not confirmed by Warner Brothers. We're working on confirming all of the aforementioned details.
Last month at the US premiere of the film, Emerson and I asked director David Yates how many deleted scenes we could expect on DVD. His answer falls in line with an update at the British Board of Film Classification's website, which lists 10 minutes worth of deleted and extended scenes to be included on the DVD. Thanks to Leaky for this.
As for a release date, rumors are currently circulating that we can expect to see it in mid-November (many sites report November 12th in the UK). We'll be sure to update you as soon as we hear more!

DVDActive.com and ComingSoon.net, both reliable movie sources, are now reporting that the fifth film will be released on DVD December 11th. From DVDActive:
Extras on the two-disc release will include 10 minutes of additional scenes, a A&E documentary, a Trailing Tonks feature with Actress Nat Tena, various making of featurettes, and a Fun and Games feature in which director David Yates and editor Mark Day show us what a difference a good edit makes and allows you to edit a scene.
It looks like some fun new features that have not been on Potter DVDs before will appear with OOTP! In addition, the film is slated for Blu-Ray and HD-DVD release. We'll update with more when we hear it! Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip.

Warner Brothers is pioneering a new digital download concept with the upcoming Order of the Phoenix DVD release, Video Business reports. WB will be including two digital copies of the fifth Potter film on its DVD, which you'll be able to download onto your PC or portable media player:
Jim Wuthrich, Warner senior VP of digital distribution, unveiled the development at Tuesday’s DVD Forum conference here, as he discussed the studio’s plans to meet what it sees as a growing consumer demand for digital content.
“You can buy the DVD and have the option of the digital copy,” said Wuthrich. “This future-proofs the format for consumers.”
While there is no word yet on exactly which media players you'll be able to put OOTP on, we can assume WB is targeting the very large iPod and iPhone markets. Both devices are capable of playing movies on-the-go. The DVD will be released in the UK on November 12th and the US on December 11th. Thanks to Lauren for the tip!

Several MuggleNetters have been e-mailing in a couple of Order of the Phoenix DVD updates this evening.
First, we've learned that the Half-Blood Prince sneak peek promised on the OOTP DVD will be viewed on the internet. Once you have your copy of the film, insert it into your computer and visit this page. There are two clips blocked out right now which can be viewed when your OOTP DVD is in the computer. It looks like both feature Half-Blood Prince filming with Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) and Michael Gambon (Dumbledore).
Second, Yahoo! UK has online a preview of the Order of the Phoenix DVD special features. This clip shows Natalia Tena (who plays Tonks) working with a choreographer to create some dueling scenes. Click here and then click "Watch the Exclusive DVD clip" on the right. Enjoy!

Lizo over at CBBC Newsround has posted a review of the upcoming Order of the Phoenix DVD, which is scheduled for release tomorrow (November 12th) in the UK. He gives the DVD 3 out of 5 stars and writes this about his favorite parts:
Which are the best bits?
Seeing some of the behind the scenes stuff in the Tonks feature. The long version of the scene where Umbridge inspects Professor Trelawney's Divination lesson is great.
Fans who are particularly into the books will enjoy the Secrets of Harry Potter documentary, although now those that have read Deathly Hallows will have had a lot of their questions already answered.
Fans who are more into the films will enjoy the editing feature where they can try putting together a scene in the Room of Requirement.
Anyone looking to purchase it in the United States will have to wait until, very unfortunately, December 11th. Thanks to Ukean34 and Lisa for the tip!

The Order of the Phoenix DVD has been released in the United States today, a month after fans in UK and Australia got their hands on it.
Several visitors have e-mailed in to tell us that there is a new sneak peek of Half-Blood Prince on the DVD. The clips differ from those that were available online to UK/Australia buyers. It has been uploaded to YouTube for those of you who don't hold the United States disc. If these clips are made available online for international viewers, please let us know via tips at staff dot mugglenet dot com!
Additionally, Larry sent in this article from MTV which speaks with producer David Yates about Half-Blood Prince filming:
That's because, as director David Yates points out, it's the "sex, drugs, and rock and roll" of the Potter books, with massive making-out sessions to occur for several characters — Ron and Lavender, Harry and Ginny — as they come of age. "It's the 'American Graffiti' for this set," Yates said. "I'm looking forward to developing the relationship between Ron and Hermione, and Ron and Lavender. There's a nice triangle there."

Director David Yates and the cast of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows spoke to Brazilian blog Vira-Tempo about the Half-Blood Prince Blu-Ray and DVD, filming the final movies and the characters they play.
David Yates commented on the Half-Blood Prince live community screening Dec. 12:
It’s happened before, but not on the global scale that we're going to do because obviously there are Harry Potter fans everywhere on the planet. It's on December 12th of this year and Daniel Radcliffe and I will be answering questions directly from fans via BD-Live about how we made the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and some of the things that were challenging as we made it, and some of the things that I'm sure the fans will begin to know about: Why did we leave some things out? Why did some things come in? And it will be the first time that we'll really engage with that global fan-base on a minute-by-minute basis, so it'll be really cool.
Thanks to Snitch Seeker! Read more of the interview here.

There are two new interviews online tonight with Tom Felton and Bonnie Wright, who have recently spoken to United States news sources to promote the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince DVD.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Tom talks briefly about Deathly Hallows and an upcoming cameo in a Jonah Hill film.
In an interview with US Potter book publisher Scholastic, both Tom and Bonnie discuss the books/films in general:
Q: How would you describe J.K. Rowling?
Bonnie: I always find it so surreal meeting her. This whole world literally is because of one person.
Tom: She's a very unassuming down-to-earth lady, the most lovely lady. I was always taken away by how genuine she seemed, and how unaffected by the fact that she's probably the world's biggest author.

Earlier this morning, MuggleNet participated in a webinar with Paul Hemstreet, Vice President of Special Features for Warner Bros., where he discussed tomorrow's release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 on Blu-ray and DVD.
Hemstreet has overseen all enhanced content since Sorcerer's Stone and talked about how it didn't really take off until Prisoner of Azkaban. As Harry Potter aged, the focus of the enhanced content changed to being more about how the films were made.
For Deathly Hallows, there was an on-site content producer capturing literally every minute on set. Hemstreet added that Blu-ray really pushes the envelope with Maxmimum Movie Mode, referring to it as "commentary on steroids." Of note:
- Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) serves as the primary host
- It took roughly 2.5 years to complete the project
- Integration of deleted scenes with commentary
- Building towards the final battle
- Other Horcruxes Revealed: a look back at their appearances in the series
Finally, Hemstreet said choosing content isn't always easy, since you need to consider what will be used for the Ultimate Editions. And bloopers? They weren't included early on because the cast were so young. But rest assured they have been collected over the years. So, "stay tuned, you won't be disappointed."

A sneak peek of the upcoming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 Blu-ray/DVD Special Features has been revealed.
The Women of Harry Potter - The Perfect Hermione shows J.K. Rowling discussing how worried she was about the filmmakers casting the right Hermione character. This was the most important casting to Jo personally, because she had put a lot of herself into the character when she created Hermione.
Jo states:
"From the first moment that I spoke to Emma I just thought, "Oh thank Christ!" I did, because, you know, who knew who they were going to cast as Hermione? I was more worried about Hermione than anyone else. I thought, you know, "Are you going to get a girl and put her in glasses 'cause that shows she's clever?" How many times have we seen that happen? I spoke to Emma on the phone and she was very young, I think she was 10. And I thought, you are going to be able to play a very bright, articulate girl with conviction because that's who you are."

A few months ago, A&E aired the movie Magic Beyond Words: The J.K. Rowling Story, which starred Poppy Montgomery as the brilliant author of Harry Potter. This movie is now available for you to view instantly on your computer.
"The film is an inspiring look at a woman's rise to become one of the most influential writers ever - from her humble beginnings as an imaginative young girl and awkward teenager to the devastating loss of her mother and the genesis of the 'Harry Potter' phenomenon in her early twenties."
Did you see the movie when it aired on A&E originally? Tell us what you thought about it in the comments below. (This editor thought it was a terrific story and very well done).

According to Deadline Hollywood, Harry Potter will be leaving home video shortly following the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2 on Blu-Ray and DVD. From Deadline:
Burbank, CA – October 24, 2011 – Harry Potter, the #1 motion picture franchise of all time, will soon disappear from shelves, as Warner Bros. stops shipping all Harry Potter theatrical film titles (including Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows™ – Part 2, and Harry Potter: The Complete 8-Film Collection) as of December 29, 2011 (moratorium does not include digital – Electronic Sell-Through & VOD – or games).
This news means that there will be a limited window in which to pick up your copy of Deathly Hallows, Part 2 or the eight-film collection this holiday season, as stock will not be replenished following the December 29th deadline. The eighth film, and the entire collection, are only becoming available on November 11th in the US, and December 2nd in the UK.
Hypable, a fandom news site, has been following this story closely and Andrew Sims has written an opinion article on why Warner Bros. is making a mistake with doing this to the Potter franchise.
So whether you're a first-time owner of the films on home video, or simply need to replace the worn-out discs in your collection, the end of 2011 seems to be the best time to buy for Potter fans.
Thanks to Hypable for the tip!

Now is the time to get your Blu-ray/DVD set complete or renewed if your old set is worn out. As we previously mentioned, all Harry Potter DVDs will be taken off the store shelves beginning December 29th.

According to a recent article, international markets will not be removing Potter Blu-rays and DVDs from store shelves.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 Blu-ray and DVD sets will arrive on November 11th in the US and will then be removed on December 29th when Warner Brothers places all Potter movies in the vault.
While we are certain you will be able to still purchase plenty of DVDs through second-hand stores and eBay, Warner Brothers appears to be making this "Disney-style" marketing move in preparation of a major release next year with a full Blu-ray/DVD collection set.
For now though, international markets can breathe a sigh of relief, especially since the home of Harry Potter, the UK, will not see the finale on store shelves until December.
For all we have on the upcoming release, head over to our Movies section.
Do you agree with these marketing moves by Warner Brothers?

Entertainment Weekly has released a new article on the upcoming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 DVD/Blu-ray. It reveals a bit more of the conversation between actor Daniel Radclife and author J.K. Rowling.
It is clear this talk will provide some more backstory and reasoning that fans have been eager for. After talking about killing Ron, Rowling now touches on the fates of Hagrid and Professor Lupin.
"Rowling telld Radcliffe that the image of Hagrid cradling 'dead' Harry — a bookend moment to the beginning of the series, when Hagrid brought infant Harry to the Dursleys – stuck with her the entire time she wrote the books and she never let it go. If she had, Rowling says Hagrid would have been a 'natural' target for elimination. 'That image kept him safe,' she says."
"On the DVD, Rowling shares with Radcliffe that when she created Lupin’s character, she planned for him to survive the events of the finale. While the author has said as much in other interviews, here, she elaborates, explaining that she changed her mind when she realized that her last Harry Potter story was really about war, and that 'one of the most horrifying things about war is how it leaves children fatherless and motherless.' The most powerful way she could dramatize that idea, she says, was to kill a set of parents that were dear to readers. 'I had no intention of killing [Lupin],' says Rowling. “But then it dawned on me he had to die."
EW also hints at much more! For all we have on the upcoming Blu-ray/DVD release, head over to our Movies section.

Today, we have another clip from the soon-to-be-released Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 Blu-ray/DVD Special Features section. This time the clip comes from 'The Women of Harry Potter.'
In this clip J.K. Rowling and Bonnie Wright discuss the power of Professor McGonagall.
Bonnie states: "The teachers have been so repressed in how they see Hogwarts, obviously from its new ruling, that you can see that they're just itching for their fight back against evil. And I love Professor McGonagall, it just completely shows what she's made of."
On the battle between Snape and McGonagall, J.K. Rowling stated: "I don't like the marginalization of women when the fighting breaks out. We get to fight too. I really wanted that. In fact, there was an earlier draft...I know there was at one point, it was Harry who took on Snape in that confrontation, and I really didn't want that to happen."

Aaron Peck from High-Def Digest has just finished reviewing the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 Blu-ray Combo Pack and has given it a five-star rating and a bottom line of 'Must Own.'
In his review, Aaron breaks down his overall thoughts on the full series of films, stating, "We've witnessed good 'Potter' movies and not so good ones. However, the best has been saved for last."
He then breaks down the overall video and audio quality, as well as the special features and supplements found in the Blu-ray Triple-Play Combo-pack.
For his final thoughts, Aaron states, "The best movie of the franchise gets a proper send off with a demo-worthy visual display coupled with an audio presentation that will nearly blow you off your couch. There's nothing to dislike about the way this disc looks or sounds, the fact that it's a really good movie simply puts it over the edge. The Blu-ray exclusive special features are informative and worthwhile. The Maximum Movie Mode is a feature every fan will want to explore. When you add it all up, 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2' is a must own title."

MuggleNet is proud to review the Blu-Ray + DVD Combo Pack of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows™ - Part 2, which hits U.S. store shelves next Friday, November 11th.
We have split our review into two parts. Yesterday, we reviewed Disc Two of the set, which was the Bonus Features disc. Today, we follow up with our review of Disc One, which contains the highly-anticipated Maximum Movie Mode.
We do not intend to take all of the fun out of viewing the features for yourself (as if we could! These features are too cool for wizard school). However, if you do want our opinion on the film's home video debut, you need not look any further.
Check out our review of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows™ - Part 2 Disc One right here at this link. You can buy it 11.11.11 on Blu-ray™ Combo Pack with UltraViolet Digital Copy and Download to Own (find it at the WB shop here).

Today is the day that Harry Potter fans in the U.S. can own Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 on DVD and Bluray home video. Additionally, an entire 8-film collection is available of the series.
And, like many fans might be, we were surprised upon playing the movie to see an advertisment for the aptly named Harry Potter: The Definitive Collection with a non-specific release date of 2012.
Today, we caught up with David Yates during Warner Bros. Harry Potter Home Entertainment Celebration and asked him about the release. From our chat:
MN: On this home video release, there's an advertisment for "Harry Potter: The Definitive Collection." 2012 release date.. ish.... very vague details. Can you share any details about that release?
DY: Not much, other than everything that the Warner back-catalogue has in terms of extras and documentaries... will go into it... It will be full-on.
MN: Including bloopers?
DY: We've got some great bloopers. They've got some great bloopers. I can't wait for [fans] to see some bloopers, they're terrific. We've got a really good bloopers reel, actually, which I was hoping would make it into this home video release, but clearly it hasn't.
Although the release of the eighth Potter film on home video is an important milestone and, to some, an "end," it is clear that many behind-the-scenes footage collected by Warner Bros. throughout the years has yet to see the light of day, or an official output. We will excitedly await a more solid release date and details about the features on this upcoming release.

As we have reported earlier, E! Online will be live streaming the red carpet event for Warner Bros. Harry Potter Home Entertainment Celebration at Universal's Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Celebrities will arrive starting 8:30pm EST and E! has their own special stage set up at the park entrance. Head on over there for live, video coverage!

Thanks to MuggleNet reader Mary K., we now have video of the Q&A sessions that took place yesterday inside The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, for Warner Bros. Harry Potter Home Entertainment Celebration.

On the panel of the Q&A were actors Devon Murray (Seamus Finnigan), Alfie Enoch (Dean Thomas), Jessie Cave (Lavender Brown), Dom Gleeson (Bill Weasley), and Katie Leung (Cho Chang).
