    i read on yahoo news
    that harry potter and the deathly hollows is going to
    broken up into 2 sepreate movies the first one coming
    out in november 2010 and the second in May 2011....they
    say the reason they are doing this is because they want
    to make it precicly like the book which i think is great
    but I'm going to hate the "to be continued" part of the
    movie.
    Im Hoping it'll be great because im a huge Harry Potter
    fan

    I hated the fourth and fifth movie. They were really bad, especially compared to the success of the books.
    They were way to choppy and lacked the character development that was evident the first three movies.

    So, I'm all for splitting the last movie up in order to preserve the quality shown in the book.

    I mean I'm happy it's going to have everything in the movie to not leave a stone unturned, but the time between the movies is the part i don't like. I mean I rather have an intermission or like a double feature. I won't complain that much b/c I'm to much of a fan to really hate their decision.

    i just thought that the huge buildup would blow up in the last book and something exciting would happen. But it was so mellow, and like ordinary, and i felt so cheated :(

    I actually quite liked the last book. But I don't like it how it has an open ending, with the kids. That's just 100% sure to be used to make someone money again.

    I don't really like the last book. In my opinion it would've been a lot better if Harry had died in battle against voldemort. But I like the search and the action in general :D

    Devastating for who? Kids? I don't really think so, the last book was sure not made for kids. My 12 years old cousin slept a hole month with the lights on after that book. It was not really scary or something but kids are easy to scare.
