When I heard that the Lord of the Rings was coming out (in 2001), and also the Harry Potter movies, I decided to read both series before watching the movies. So I read the LOTR and the HP books that had come out by then, and was very glad to have done so... especially in the case of LOTR. Even though the films were incredible, the books were still far better.
So, for me, I prefer to read before watching. Even if that means I have to wait for the DVD... I still would rather take the time to read.
