Last year we first told you that there were reports of a possible release of the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix DVD during the lead up to the Christmas holidays, 2007. Then again this past June, there were further mentions that this release of the fifth Harry Potter film on DVD would take place sometime this fall, along with the release of the other Harry Potter films in a High Definition format. Today, Amazon U.K. has now placed the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix DVD (2-disc edition) as available for pre-order, with a November 12, 2007 release date. So far, this pre-order for the OotP DVD is only available in the UK and we have no other information if this release date will hold true for the United States and elsewhere. While there have been mulitiple rumors of this date swirling on the internet for some time, we are trying to obtain official confirmation of this Order of the Phoenix DVD release date, and will update with more when we can.
Thanks Nikki!
FYI… On US Amazon.com, you can sign up to be notified when the OOP DVD is available for pre-order. Here’s a link:

POA had a summer theatrical release and a November DVD release. This date makes sense.
What I’d REALLY like to know is what features they’ll be putting on the DVD. David Yates flat out admitted a while back that he filmed a 4 hour movie – so, are they finally going to give us an extended cut? Or are we really going to have to wait until the whole series is over before WB re-releases the films as Extended Editions? I hope not…
Le sigh, rant over.
That’s two days before my birthday!!
I hope that some time in the Potter DVDS we will be given a Dan/Rupert/Emma commentary. That would be sweeeet. I love the behind-the-scene stuff…oh, please let this be true!!
Well, even if it isn’t true (And I hope it is, even if I’m from the US), I do hope the DVD comes out around that time. The sooner, the better! :D
I’m not one for preordering things (Deathly Hallows was an exception) so I’ll probably wait to get it for Christmas. I’ll definitely get it since I have the first for though. When they ALL come out I hope they make some kind of cool special set like all extended cuts and stuff! I’ve been disappointed with the lack of special features though…
And when’s the next commentary coming out, guys??? I love the ones for GOF and CoS you guys made, now we need for SS/PS and PoA!!!
Sounds good. First post?
