Yes, I've read the books
I've read some of the books
I've not read any of the books.
Anatolians for me!
I tend to be a heavy reader of nonFic so HP wasn't part of my usual fare. But I know many HP fans (adults) and when the DVD movies came out, I saw Prisoner and Goblet (I'm deaf so I need the captions/DVD). I loved the movies!
I have a lot of reading I'm behind on..but I want to read all the HP books if I can ever find time.

No. The movies interest me, but I haven't picked up the book hype yet. I've read quite a bit of Harry Potter fan fic. I hear the director for the first two movies made them incredibly close to the book, but for the movies after that they changed a lot of info from the book. I think it would just annoy me to read it and see something different, as it does with lots of movies. Anyway, I prefer stuff that doesn't have a craze. I own both books and movies that are really good but never became popular. They are my forgotten treasures.

Movies do certainly pale in comparison with the story telling depth of books.
I have never read the Tolkien books (not my childhood genre) yet I am absolutely a fan of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings series.
