Both World God Only Knows and Haruhi start out with a ridiculous (in a good way) supernatural premise and a lot of comedy/parody with some lighthearted drama. But there's a point at which things get serious and you realize that the series has been building up to a real arc, and the characters go through some real growth. The series takes on new meaning.
That point is The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya and the goddess arc (Megami-hen) in World God Only Knows. In both cases, you really reeeally should see seasons 1 and 2 first. (It's hard to appreciate the new meaning if you aren't familiar with the old meaning.) Note: If you can, see the OVAs of WGOK, but it's not essential. The anime skipped a lot of the manga regardless. And if you're willing, watch all of the Endless Eight arc in Haruhi; it's not essential but actually does have some relevance.
In any case, Disappearance and Megami-hen are both great if you are invested in the characters. If you're reading this because you liked the way one series started off amusing but then went deeper, try watching the other.

Without trying to spoil too much, these movies have similar themes and structures. They both feature well established series, but take the most serious elements of each and bring them to the foreground. Both showcase spectacular animation and voice acting as well as interesting new developments for the familiar characters.
