Thank you soooooo muuuuuuch! I can’t believe we’ll have 2 films in a total of 5 hours…. I do hope they won’t cut Ginny. Neville and Luna’s part in the revolution because i’m really looking forward to that. They are my favorites! HEYMAN RULES!!!
i think they should split the film right after nagini comes aout of Bathilda. it would be such a clif hanger.
These past few days i have been in HP HEAVEN! I am soo excited that i feel all jumpy!! So i guess that part 1 will be released almost exactly a year from the release of HBP? Sounds good to me! The less time we have to wait the better!!
It’s completely obvious (to me, anyway) that the absolute best place to split them is at Dobby’s burial. That way, you get your dramatic climax at the Malfoy Manor (a small-scale action scene,) then you get your emotional climax at Dobby’s death and burial by the sea. Fade out on Harry staring out at the water. Furthermore, there’s a good few weeks (book time) before anything else really happens.
Wow! News after news after news, it’s madness! It’s fantastic! And we aren’t even CLOSE to seeing DH!! I agree with both posts above mine: David, I completely and utterly agree with every word you said, couldn’t have said it better myself. Lindsay, I’m glad you see that we don’t really have to wait THAT long.
Aweome news! Thank you David Heyman for all you’re doing for HP! I agree for “looking forward” scenes+Ron/Hermione kiss ofcourse…
@Lindsay and anotherbloke- we dont have to wait 1 year after HBp for 1st DH-we have to wait almost 2 years!!!!! HBP-November 2008, 1st DH November 2010. LOL PEOPLE 2010-2008=2
BUT IT’S WORTH OF WAITING….
These moviemakers are so full of something. I won’t say what, but you can bet if you held some of it under your nose, it wouldn’t smell like a rose. The only reason they’re splitting the final book into two films is that it’s their last chance to cash in on cinematic versions of the series. Cutting content is clearly not something that mattered to them before, judging by how much the previous adaptations have been butchered.
i’d have loved to see Cuaron’s little creative touches in DH (he’s one of the most inspired directors around nowadays) and i’m sure he’d have handled the action scenes with a bang (just check “children of men”, his latest movie). alas, there comes david yates again, and i’m not angry, he’s my second favourite. but, please, call mr. john williams back. i’ve been missing his wonderful music so much…
All this two movies talk makes me feel all warm and happy! I am so glad they decided that for this the final movie, the last new Harry Potter experience (except the Scottish Book) that we fans will have, it needs to be the ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE! It’s going to have EVERYTHING!!!! Except a couple things, but with nearly 5 hours they wont be cutting much. OH MY GOODNESS THIS MEANS DOBBY IS IN! Oh dear I am going to bawl in this one. HBP too. Nothing makes me cry like Harry Potter… I digrese. The point is, this is going to be every fans dream. The way we all wanted every movie to be. We all know we would gladly have sat through a 12 hour Goblet of Fire to see S.P.E.W, and we all missed Ron’s Quidditch in OotP, and the ever conspicuous by his absence: Peeves. They are making it up in the best way they can, and they are going out with a bang. Ride on to Victory David Heyman! You have made my Year!
Oh and they better have either Nicholas Hooper back or John Williams back. No one else should be allowed near.
i FREAKIN LOVE David Heyman!!!!!! He’s gets (understands) Hp just like all the fans do….. And I just love the fact that he said he’s looking forward to the scene where hermoine is trapped in Malfoy Manor….. b/c it is such a heartwrenching seen when ron is screaming and crying for her….LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! glad to know he does to.
I cannot wait, seriously…. I’ve been praying for DH to be split into to 2 parts or for it be four and a half to five hours long…........And now it finally is! Can they possibly get the guy that composed the LOTR films to come for DH??????? Please…......a great film needs an epic score I wanna cry, this is the last book/movie it needs to be damn good!
i mean David iz da most elegant guy i eva seen ♥
why can’t they release them closer to each other??

My friends and i like to go to the midnight premiere and now it will be weird to go to one and then have to wait 6 months to see the rest of the movie! I know they couldn’t do the book justice w/ 1 film, but why couldn’t thhey film both and release them at the same time?

just want to point out first that I am NOT the same ‘anne’ who posted at March 15, 4.39am.
Anyway Muddtallica, I can see what you’re saying. I like the last three films for the same reasons; I was watching POA yesterday and thinking all the way through how much I really liked what they did with it. I do have problems with one or two scenes in GOF and OotP, like GOF Quidditch DE attack and the Dementors in OotP, though, because they depart a bit too far from my image, but I wouldn’t want to see a return to the slavish quality of the first two films either. I think with David Yates though, we’re not going to get that. But DH is just so jam packed full of event, whereas the other books have lots of description or school stuff that can quite easily be removed and shown visually.
