i do not like the idea of two films but i know(hopefully) i will change my mind when the movies come out. what upsets me is not knowing where they will split it and if its going to be a goood ending.
@Scarletti
If they change Xeno’s little bit to him suceeding to turn them in, Potterwatch won’t really matter.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN CAPTURED FROM XENO’S??? It’s way more creepier if they get captured right after Harry says Voldemort’s name. And then Ron makes the lights go out. That part is alot better if it happens in the dark cause then it would make more sense for the snatchers to not immediately recognize Harry, Ron, or Hermione. And I think Malfoy Manor would look alot creepier if they arrive there at night. I’m surprised you guys are talking about what should be cut out now when there’s a good chance alot of stuff won’t be cut out. i thought some of you were hated the other films because “they cut alot of stuff out of them.”
Captured from Xeno’s would be just fine and could be at night, too. It would be just as creepy.
I think the end of the first part should be-in the water,Harry chokeing,and something pulling him….and then: MAGIC CONTINUES… AWESOME!
and we’ll not be waiting 2 years for 1st DH than 3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! filming begins in february 2009-so that means 2 years of filming-——-man…...........but thats ok.that means about 4 more years of HP.I like it. And it’s ok that DH1 and DH2 are 6 months apart. we have enough time to enoy in the first one(+DVD,I hope) and then all that excitement anout the grand final!!!!
thank you, God! and Jo:)

I think that small change would really affect the whole mood of the movie though. I think it would go in a direction that i wouldn’t really like. I still maintain Potterwatch as a good thing in the movie, though it’s such a small detail i wouldn’t be suprised if the took it out. But if they are going to be more accurate for the 7th book, there’s a hope that they might keep it.
YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES! THIS IS AWESOME NEWS! I LOVELOVELOVE YATES! great. they’ll include EVERYTHING! can’t wait for filming to start February! i think they should end at Ron leaving. or dobby’s death! YES YES YES I’M SO HYPED!
How would it change the mood? Being captured from Xeno’s is little different that being captured by random Death Eaters at some random camp. This way, rather than escape… wander the forest… THEN get caught… they just get caught.
I think this calls for a SQUEEEEE!!!! I was a bit nervous about the whole 2 films thing at first (I voted “No, No, No!” in the poll), but then I thought that if Yates directed both I’d be fine with it. I am SO EXCITED!!!! Oh, and this means Hooper will be back to score, probably! Hooray!!! This is the BEST DAY EVER (except for July 21, 2007, of course…)
@Scarletti
I completely agree. Potterwatch is very important because it gives the trio a renewed hope. they kind of lost some of their hope when they went to see Xeno, who they thought they could trust and then he betrayed them. so Potterwatch is definitely important and plus it will let the audience know that Fred, George, and all the others are safe and still alive.
and that just reminded FRED DIES! Oh no! i forgot about that. that’s going to suck. Of course Potterwatch has to be in there because that’s like the last time we hear Fred before he gets killed.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!! Squeeeeeeeee!!!!! <<<
Okay, okay, I’m calm….. sqeee! :o)
@ Celia
PotterWatch would actually be a good way to bring film eight into an opening.
TML,
Yeah it would be kind of cool. If part two came on to the sound of the Potterwatch guys talking. That would be awesome actually. And then it could focus in on the trio listening to it. FREAKIN’ AWESOME!
Can’t say I’m too happy about this. One, I don’t particularly like David Yates’s treatment of Order of the Phoenix, and think different, better Directors deserve a chance. I can’t see why he gets to do three/four HP movies, when nobody else did. Two, I don’t like the idea of it being split into two movies, and having to shell out twice as much money to see them.
Not pleased.

With all due respect, they can’t cut Potterwatch! It’s an essential part to connecting Harry to the wizarding world. Ron had to leave and discover Potterwatch. If he didn’t Harry and Hermione would have been cut off.
I know i’m being nitpicky, but still. If they’re doing two movies, i don’t think they’d have any reason to cut potterwatch. It reconnects everyone together.
