i wish they werent so far apart….it sucks to have to wait that long. dont get me wrong im glad its in two parts so that everything (or most everything) can get included but i wish they would be released closer together…...
@Celia:
Malfoy Manor and Shell Cottage are too far into the story. There’d be little but the battle left for the second part
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA! Now that’s what I call some proper NEWS!!!
I’m liking the idea, but I must admit calling them “Part One” and “Part Two” just sounds weird. It’s not bad, just sounds weird! I can’t help but think that it will cut any Oscar chances (not that there was ever much hope). As for where to cut, I hope they cut after a resolution (i.e. Ron coming back to Harry and Hermione) – by far the most successful ‘in-between’ film was The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers – and I remember hearing PJ talking about how he was worried about the film not feeling complete with a resolution, hence why the Shelob sequence was moved to Return of the King. I’m excited too now that I may be able to make it to London for one of the premieres – I was always disappointed that I was going to struggle to make one because of university.
FINALLY! What took them so long?! Yay, I’m so excited about this! I absolutely can’t wait, and I’m so glad Yates is directing again! Now if only they could get Goldberg back in there…ugh. Kloves is—well. Y’know.
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!
I’M SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!! 2 DH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that’s going to be brilliant. hmhmhm….Yates? OK. after OOTP I was little disapointed but he has a chance to improve in HBP. If I like HBP then why not!!! But I think Yates and Cuaron should work together on DH.
..........but I think thats not official yet. I will believe it when I see David Heymans interview!!!
Yes i am so glad this is true. Dispite the director, i cant wait to see the movie! I bet the openining of part two is at shell cottage.
I’m liking the idea, but I must admit calling them “Part One” and “Part Two” just sounds weird.
I agree. Harrypotternewsreel.blogspot.com has been calling “Part II” “The Battle of Hogwarts (Film)” since the rumours cropped up. Oh, well, though.
I don’t know if I like the idea yet…I think I do. I’m confused lol!
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! YAYYYYYYY YAYYYYYYYYY! The director curse is finally over! DH is going to be AMAZING!!!
Hmmmmm… A drastic move I’d say, the 2-parts move I mean, I hope it works alright….
As for Yates, I was kinda hoping for some new blood, not because I’m against Yates in particular, but I wasn’t particulary impressed with any of the 5 HP films made so far, so I suppose it’s not meant to be, being impressed with any HP film that is. (shrugs)
The Silver Doe is the only chapter that one could cut it at. The Return of Ron and the destruction of the first horcrux would be an excellent way to end part I.
Shell Cottage and Malfoy Manor are too far into the story to be cut there, as some one already said.
This….is gonna be interesting….
I’m kind of surprised . I didn’t expect Yates to direct the final film, even with the whole Lois Lowry thing. The two part thing I did expect, though.
Break it at suspense! Break it at suspense! Woooo, go WB!
