Maybe a cartoon series out of the books could be in the future. I could go for what Fox suggested and have a re-telling of it in like a mini-series. You'd get more of the backstory instead of the rush of movies four, five and six.

Though in all reality I don't think you will see any sort of re-boot of the series as long as JK Rowling has a say in it. If she is fine with the series of movies it won't be remade.

Kane you're original insticnts were probably right: untouchable for a generation or two. I don't think Harry Potter will turn into Shakespeare.

I'd love to see 7 10-13 episode Seasons for the 7 Books. It would give them time to really do each book justice and flesh out the side stories and side characters a bit more. Not only that, but the DVD sales for the individual seasons would be phenomenal.
The reason they don't do that is there's less money in it comparatively.

Though I'd been a proponent of split movies (Similar to what they'd done with the last book) or extended editions (Like the Lord of the rings, only with things happening).

The former might not be as marketable and we'll probably see the latter sooner rather than later.

I don't think it will, either. But then, reboots and remakes are coming earlier and more frequently with other franchises that fall in the "not Shakespeare" category.
