The ending of the first fil def need sto be right as they get caught someone peaks out of the tent and greyback is up close to the screen and bites real quick then end. that would be friggin intense.

I’ve said all along that the movie should be split there. It makes perfest sense. It’s right at the middle of the book. It makes a good stopping point. Ron returns, saves Harry’s life and then destroys the Horcrux. Perfect. The questions for the unfortunate ones who have not read the book, What happens next? Will Hermione still be mad at Ron? Will Ron stay this time and complete the journey and task set them? How will it end? THe questions go on and on. I’ve read posts about Xeno’s house escape and Dobby’s death. Those are, in my opinion, too late in the book. It doesn’t really matter where they split it as long as the most important points are left in the movie. Give the book justice. The millions of HP fans around the world want to see everything. No more fiascos like OotP. Good movie, but terrible at following the book. Too many things changed from the book. Too much Umbridge! The last battle was awful and Dumbledore and Harry’s conversation at the end didn’t even go into the finer points of what needed to be said. Oh, Sorry! I get carried away when it comes to the bad points of OotP. Do the last one justice and we’ll be in extacy again.

I think it would be better if it is done after the capturing of them by Fenrir and the bountyhunters. it can end with the capturing of Potter without knowing who he is

That is the perfect point to split I think. I just think that whole bit with the Silver Doe is really interesting and funny and sad and sweet and It would be kind of uplifting with Ron’s return and rescuing Harry yet dark with the fact that they are one more horcrux down and have no idea what to do next… and how frightened the three must be at the fact that thir future is so uncertain. Ooh I like it. Nowhere else makes sense to me – well Shell Cottage would me my second choice I suppose! :]

Could Kloves really bring himself to make the film that Ron-centered?? haha…

Yea that seems like the right spot for the movie.

If you think about it, that’s right after Harry’s only other (near) confrontation with Voldemort in the book. Of course they’re probably going to overcharge the whole scene to make Harry & Voldy come face to face and battle, y’know, so it’s a proper movie climax.

They really should’ve been doing this splitting thing since Goblet, though I think they could’ve just as well made ridiculously long movies like they did for LOTR.

wow this is great because this a is the real turning point story and that means it doesn’t end sad like when dobey sorry about my spelling dies looking forward already :):):):):):):):):)

great, a two and a half hour movie of camping in the woods…

well i guess we can look forward to them drastically cutting the only Snape scene in the book, i wonder if Xeno will even be included, griphook will probably be out too and just have them go into the bank on their own, most of the battle will probably be off screen, and we’ve seen what the DD explains it all scenes get shortened to, the RoR bit will probably get changed drastically… but hey, we can get an overly extended scene of them polyjuiced in the Ministry and polyjuiced at Godrics Hollow. GG WB

I’ve always felt that Godric’s Hollow would be the ideal place. It would be a real cliff-hanger, with Ron gone and Harry’s wand broken. To me, Ron’s return would be more uplifting but less dramatic.

I also think DH1 should end at Shell Cottage. This is where Harry finally realizes what he’s going to do about the Hallows & Horcruxes. Dobby dies saving everyone from Malfoy Manor. It was the turning point in the book. I think DH2 should state where the trio really makes their plan for what to do next, Harry’s decision to look for Horcruxes, not Hallows, Gringott’s, etc.

I think Shell Cottage is the perfect ending. Dobby’s death and Harry’s decision is the perfect set up for the next movie.

The problem with Shell Cottage is that it comes 3/4 of the way through the book. It would make the 2nd film awfully short.

That’s just where I thought that they would part it!! =D

I think that would be a good place to split it….it will keep us fans anxious and ready for the next part!

Oh, that’s great! I’m so happy about all the DH film talk, and it’s funny how we hear more about DH than HBP, and HBP is out this year, lmao!

At this rate, we’ll get the DH trailer before the freakin’ HBP trailer!! HAhaha.

(and I know they haven’t filmed any of DH, that’s the joke)
