The trailer looks intriguing, at least. But I lost interest a while ago too, sometime after reading GoF. I can't speak to the quality of the subsequent books, but I just have no motivation to read them. Even though they're not challenging, they're still lengthy; and frankly, while I want to have read them, I just don't care enough. Part of it is that I rarely read for recreation anymore, but part of it is the end of the affair. You're right; it's sad. I still like the characters, but something you wrote earlier is true--JKR seems to have squandered them, as when she pulled the whole "Dumbledore is gay" thing. At first I was like, "Hmm!" but then, obviously, she did nothing (or very little) to explore that issue in the books, for all she's supposed to be so accepting. And from what I know of the infamous epilogue, it's like one big meh.

Who knows, I could get sparked later on though.
