For those of you who don't know, the final book of the Harry Potter series will be split into two movies: a part one and a part two.

it's good because there's more before it's done for good. it's not good cause we have to watch half the thing and then wait like two years or something for the next one.

I all ready knew that like four or five months ago. But thanks for the happy reminder that it will still be going strong for at least one more year than most people expected.

I guess I'm a bit bittersweet about it since now they won't be squeezing a fat 600 paged book into a measely 2 hour movie anymore, but I def. do not want to wait 3 years in between to find out what happens.

^ I don't think it's scheduled to be that big a gap, is it?
I'm pretty much thrilled over this idea, and I want the final battle to be EPIC. EPIC, I SAY.

^ I second that! f**k, if it's not epic, my whole HP obsession will be greatly tested.
Some people say they're trying to milk as much money out of HP as possible for as long as possible...even though that may be true, I don't care. They could make 3 movies and I would be even happier!
And I don't really mind a 3 year gap because I already know what happens, it's not like they'll change anything major in the plot.

I third that. I swear if I dont see the trio doing some f**king damage Ill damage the theater.
/edit. Hell, the whole cast. Trelawny dropping balls, and McGonagall going nuts. OH OH and the three teachers going against another. THAT TOO. MY FAVORITE. ( yeah I love fighting, esp between teachers!)

Oh, and it should definitely be in IMAX 3D! That was f**king awesome in the 5th movie.

When I get to reading the 7th book, I'm sure I'll be just as excited as you guys!

But I agree with making it in 3d. Bahaha, I'd so be there.

ZOMG THEY HAD BETTER INCLUDE THE MRS. WEASLEY LINE.
Otherwise I will be forced to insert it myself, and scream it repeatedly during the screening, to what I imagine will be the distress of the other cinema-goers.
And to be fair, even if it is an attempt to milk money, I don't really care, providing I'm satisfied with the product.

SHIT, IF THAT DON'T I'LL HAVE TO SLAP A BITCH. I can't wait to see Ron & Hermione kiss on screen! SQUEE!!!!!

And there's only like a 6 month gap b/w the two movies...

OMG totally. And you know, if you did scream it repeatedly, I don't think the other people watching the movie would mind. If I was there with you, I'd join in with you XD.
"NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!"Just to refresh my memory...oh geez. Single best line EVER. Julie Walters would totally ROCK that shit out!
It should be like the Rocky Horror Picture Show, people should dress in robes and throw popcorn (err...Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans?) at the screen and scream that over and over again.

hey hey, at least we all know what happens and how it all ends. no more anticipation there.
but they definitely did the right move, i think, in making two parts because the past couple of movies had some extra scenes and hollywood-ish stuff that made no sense whatsoever. i just hope they will be sticking straight to the books and it will be awesomeee =)

Yeah it will definitely appeal to the readers because I know that it's always an issue because it's such a long book and they want everything in it.

Ha ha I will probably be one of those parents forcing there kids to read it. But it is still not the same because there will be no more new Harry Potter adventures.

ZOMG, the weekend before it comes out, our charity committee has now officially planned to send us all to some random city dressed in HP costumes to raise money for the day. I am geekishly thrilled. Oh, except thats for HBP, which is the other thread, I realize now, but still.
Also, I am TOTALLY going to bully people into dressing up for these.
