Few things I noticed
Michael Gambon as Dumbledor looks to go well. Sounds a lot more like I imagined him than Richard Harris did.
Neville got skinny.....really skinny
Oldman looks perfect at Sirius.
overall feel looks to make the movie from the much more light hearted first two films into the dark path the 3rd book begins.
Not nearly enough angles to get a good look at Lupin.
No pictures at all (That I could tell) of Trelawney
No direct look at the Dementors. We all know they probably just went to peter Jackson and asked to borrow the ringwrath costumes
Anyways, 3rd book was my favorite so i'm looking forward to this a lot. Looks like No more Columbus at the helm is going to work out really well.

I've began thinking that it would've been better to not have seen the movies and just let imagination do the work.

Not in the book, but I think is a nice touch, if for nothing more than to show that there's a new director, and the tone of the movie will be very different.

I agree, although not because I dislike the movies - I just think it doesn't work as well in cinematic format. In the books, you get a much better feel of the day-to-day wizarding world. In the movies it's more of an adventure. In the books, having each year take place in the same place made perfect sense - after all, it is a school. In movies however, that seems redundant and repetetive somehow. I really wish it had stayed in literary form.
