If you asked me this earlier on, I'd say the books... the first book was such a magical experience but later on things got a little dull and predictable for me and I started preferring watching the films. They take less time!

Movies.Because the novel contains only a written line.In movies the same line is added with ambiance,visual effects and a throbbing and pulsating music

Definitely the book, we are left to imagine the unimaginable, and certain things are never conveyed in the movie it only comes out in the book.

I prefer reading the books to watching movies anyday. Crossword has a beautiful bookmark with the words "Never judge a book by its movie." The little details that J K Rowling has written in every scene in the books is not done full justice to in any of the movies, in my humble opinion. While I think each movie has been phenomenal in staying as close as it can possibly be to the book, I'd still prefer to read the books over watching movies anyday. In fact, after I watch a Harry Potter movie, I go back and read its book all over again to find out what the movie's missed capturing!

Reading the books over and over again is way, way better than watching the movies. If you're not such an avid follower of the series, the movies are entertaining in themselves. Like most bestseller-to-movie adaptation, the latter are almost always disappointing compared with the books. The HP movies are not different. I just see the movies as more of tools to help me visualize and imagine the books much better. But one thing I'm thankful for the movies, they complete the family fun as our 6-y/o with Global Devt Delay who still can't read can share in our Harry Potter enjoyment.
