Look, OP, I can understand the occasional urge to shake your cane and tell those damn kids to get off your lawn. But don't be hatin' the newbies just because they're new, they can't help it that they're late. I know my first book release party was for Order of the Phoenix, just because I missed the first four. Hell, some of them probably couldn't even read when the books were first coming out.

Look at it this way: these kids may have it easier when it comes to getting the books and the movies, but you and I (maybe mostly you, I dunno) were there for the really cool stuff - the parties, the camaraderie, that sort of thing. Be glad for them that they can at least get into it before DHpt2 comes out, so they have one last big event. Hell, be a little grateful, even; they're going to be what helps keep the fandom alive.

So look at it as a chance to talk to people who are reading it with fresh eyes. What's old hat to you and I is going to be brand new to them, and their enthusiasm could just be contagious. You might see some things you missed, you can show them some things they missed. It's a chance to do things over again, in a way.

tl;dr - Be nice to the newbies. They can't help it, and they're good for fandom (provided they don't get too "LOl!!one1"). Maybe you can even talk to a few, and be reminded just why you fell in love with the series in the first place.
