I am sorry to tell LemonFaeire that the escape from the Lovegoods comes after ron’s return. Although I want to see Hermione’s reaction to his return before the first instalment ends.

Sorry with the triple post and I’ll go.

I still think (as much as it would pain me to wait) to begin the next movie with the silver doe. shrugs

I think it would be a perfect ending with Ron’s return it would make sense but if the writers want it to be a cliff hanger it could be cut when Ron leaves. Personally I think it should be after the Silver Doe chapter but whatever they decide it will be well thought out and planned . Just keep to the book will you and leave out only minor detail this time.

Yahoo. That’s where Melissa said it ought to be split. It’s at the midway point of the novel, it provides an upbeat ending after the tragic climax at Godric’s Hollow, and, with the silver doe, the locket and the story of the deluminator, it would be very cinematic.

I disagree about ending with Shell Cottage. That’s far too late in the book. The journey to Luna’s home and her father’s tale of the Deathly Hallows would make a far better opening for the 2nd movie. After all, the second movie can’t be entirely the Battle at Hogwarts.

Well that is where we thought it would be split, although that means that they might have to alter parts of it, which i dn’t really want

Nooooooo!!! Too early!!! I want as much time as possible devoted to the battle, and the Snape pensieve scene, and the King’s Cross Scene, and the final showdown…. Please, NOTHING of that can be cut… Please! panics

Sounds good to me…I’m so uber-excited that DH is two movies! They’ll probably be the best HP movies in the whole series! Even if they left out a LOT that’s leading up to the finale. T_T

I think that people forget that the whole scene at Godric’s Hallow happened without Ron there. For me that was the one place in ten years I was mentally begging for JKR to explore more. I was sobbing when they saw the glamoured house and the graffiti, since it was such a bittersweet moment. Then after all that he meets the Snake lady and his wand gets broken. Those moments were huge in the book. Finally, I could live with the split, since it is also the appearance of the silver doe and the illiterate folk out there can be wondering, “Who sent that silver thingy out in the woods in the middle of winter?”

No matter where they choose to split it, people would be unhappy. I can understand and respect their choice as artist and storytellers and I think that other should follow suit. However, if they wanted to make all DH from Lucious’ (read: Jason Isaacs) POV, I think it would be brillant!

At this point I honestly don’t care as long as they do both parts well and at least they do the last of the books justice in the films! Don’t change characters around, don’t take out things and add stupid made up scenes… if they made the wrong choice to leave Peeves out of the films don’t use other characters like Ron, Filch, etc for comic relief and make them be what they aren’t. Just make the films great, make the battle scene EPIC and leave us satisfied and with some closure. Then I can die happy.

That would be THE perfect place to end the first film [DH I ] it would be on a high note.Then in DH II they could continue thier journey ….with Ron back where he should be….........hope he is right!

i hope this isnt true! i want it 2 be split like right before malfoy manor or when they escape from the lovegood house. i dont like it

This is way too early in the book. They should give themselves more time to do the Battle of Hogwarts really well, as well as the Epilogue. So, I hope that this is a false rumor.

I hope they don’t do it then! That would be awful!

I would like it to end at either the part where Mr. Lovegood goes, “You mean the Deathly Hallows?”

OR

When the DE’s catch Harry, Ron, and Hermione and they are going through the gates of the Malfoy Manor.

Either would add suspense. And really, Ron coming back is great but ending it at the scene where Hermione is hitting him would be stupid.

Maybe if they ended it right after Ron killed the Horcrux and he says something like, “Woah.” Then credits. I think it would be fine. But ending at Hermione’s reaction or even beginning the second part with it would not be good.
