I don't like the artwork cover for this release but I'm definitely getting the two disc version.
However, DVD Times posted the image of the giftset and it looks absolutely phenomenal. I might just be tempted to buy this set...

Personally, I'd skip the gift set because if you're going to spend that kind of money, why not wait a couple years for when the ultimate gift set comes out with all 7 movies?

Yeah, that gift set looks great, but I will wait for the big box in a couple of years (even though I am buying the other titles now). I will probably only buy a big box set if it contains the extended cuts though.

Yuck on the Order of Phoenix cover art. Why not use the great theatrical poster. I realize it wasn't very original, but having the kids all looking intense with the great "The rebellion begins" tagline was better than horrific photoshop images of the cast pointing wands at us...

I just don't understand why, time after time, these studios continue to churn out crappy DVD covers when they can just use the far superior poster art. That said, the cover art won't make or break my purchase; it's the 2-disc for me, as it has been with all the HP movies.
However, I hope that when they finally get to releasing extended editions, they'll release them with classy, consistent packaging. I'd be happy with either painted art matching the first 2 HP movies' packages (not sure why they strayed from that), or something subtle and color/design based like the LOTR:EE packages.

http://www.newsdesk.umd.edu/images/H...%20poster3.jpg is disturbing to me. IMHO.
I no longer care that the DVD packages don't match... I'll just sell them off and buy the inevitable box of all 7 that will come out to help my OCD problems.

Does anyone else think it's weird that all of the high def discs and the 1-5 giftset are available for pre-order, but not OotP?

Artwork is a huge step down from the first movie. Whatever happened to the drawn posters, it made the movies seem more 'magical' if that makes sense. People pointing wands isn't as cool.
