Deathly Hallows film to be split in two parts?
UPDATE: Empire Online is now quoting WB as saying "no decision has been made," in part because no script exists yet. Steve Kloves cannot begin work on the Deathly Hallows script because of the US writer's strike. We'll let you know more once we hear it! Several visitors have sent in this article from the Daily Mail, which claims crews working on Half-Blood Prince have been told the final film will be split:
A film source said: "There's so much to fit that the view is the last movie should be in two halves. There is a huge battle when Harry, played by Daniel Radcliffe, takes on Voldemort that needs to be done really well."
What's more, the Daily Mail claims that big name directors such as Steven Spielberg are being considered to direct Deathly Hallows. We'll look into this rumor and let you know what Warner Brothers has to say!

Gotpotter269, that news actually came out a while ago on Stephenie Meyer's site. =] It's one of my favortie books...I got so excited, but I'm not sure if he'll do a good job being Edward...*sigh*
that would be... well i dont care because harry potter could go on forever and id still love it!!! its freakin HARRY POTTER. split it 50 times and i wouldnt care. just make it amazing... but i have no doubt about that.!!!!! steven speilsberg? wow that would be crazzzyyyy but he totally should do it. i think the movie would have a little more pizazz haha. yates is incredible too though! :) overall, i dont care how the movie is split, as long as EVERYTHING is included!! and the fight between harry and voldemort is absolutely amazing!!! so make it full of detail and incredibleness... who cares if its split in 2?! its still going to be BOMB. yeeeaaaa fo sho fo sho im gettin that fo shoooooooo. loveeee HP forever.
Besides the fact that I highly doubt that the film would be split into two, I really REALLY don't like the idea. It would ruin the pace and...just no. Is there probably going to be A LOT of things cut from book 7? yes. But i'd rather have them do that and maybe pull a Lord of the Rings (make the film 3 hours long) than split the film. And steven speilsberg? Once again, most likley untrue but if it happened? Eh. I'm cool with it.
Morning american cheesecakians
why doesnt anyone else who lives at a time zone close to here comes on at this hours?
hiya tiassa!
Hey becky! hows it going?
good, how are you?
fine, I decided I need to read the 7 book again while I am harry's age but I cant do it. Ill probably finidh it tomarrow but oh well...
awe.. i am rereading all the books again. I am on the 4th one, its take me forever.
When I started to read the books I was ten and the third just came out (the first in hebrew just came out as well) it seemed to me that I could never catch up with harry's age. not until Deathly Hallowes at least. so I have another reason to be sad to turn 18
awe! yeah i bet!! when your bday??
tomarrow. I just won the Dualing Club!
well happy birthday early!!! congrats on the dueling club! i havent gone on MNI in awhile! what did you get for doing that? do you have any plans for your bday? (btw i am sorry if my english is super poor, i am so cold that i have gloves on and its making it hard to type)
10 galleons!no plans and thanks! I am a little cold too but i am wearing a short t-shirt and asweatshirt on it cause I had sport today and we jumped into the sand box again...
jumped into a sandbox? why? lol sounds fun, but work!
no its not fun we have been doing it for days now thats how they test how far youve jumped and all my socks have sand in them. its really hard to get it out
i take that back, thats no fun at all. i hate it when sand gets in your socks and shoes, it seriously takes months for it all to come out.
yeah I know. when is your birthday?
august 20th. :-)
hey becky and tiassa!
Hey kayla! when yourbirthday. I have a bad feeling that I wont be around for your birthday beckey but we'll see
hey kayla!! how are you?? where will you be Tiassa?
June10th :] and im gooood. listenin to music. :P howboutyou?
army probably
oh yikes tiassa!!! good kayal another summer bday!! i am working, trying to keep the boss happy (which seems to be an impossible task)
sorry becky. Im listening to music as well. well I have a super memory so I am going to remember your bdays
i want to listen to music! *throws boss that is down here evil look* ah well. how long will you have to be in the army tiassa?
2 years unless I am offered something good and sign up for more. I don't really think that will happen and I wont sign up for more then a year anyway
does everyone HAVE to go into the army?
ah, we had to check something, talk about boringgg. lol and i love having a summer birthdayy! 8D. i cant wait for summmerr.
what did you have to check? yes they do unless the army finds then insane/they are annoying people who pretend they are insane and give the job to others
ahhh ok. kayla, i cant wait for summer either. its 17 degrees here today. ugh!!!
my brother wants to go to the military after he finishes high schoool. idk, i dont want him to, id rather him go to college or something.
yeah tell him to go to college. how old is he?
hes 17, 18 in july. and yah same here, its freezing, im just hopping that it snows and i get a 2hr delay or something tomorrow. lol
never snowes here...
if he insists on joining the military have him look into the National Guard or the Air Force. (generally less front line work) i had a friend in the Air Force for 2 years.
ohh. winter time here its usually just cold. we wil have random weeks of a lot of snow, but its not like all winter long we have snow.
great idea becky! there are many things he can go to if he wants action. It doesnt need to be army. find out exactly why he wants to go there and then try to suggest some other job with the same thing. what do your parents think about this?
we NEVER have snow....
poor Tiassa! *sends the snow we have*
thanks becky!*sends back cheesecake to becky and kayla*
yah, that is a good idea. ill tlk to him about it when i see him later. lol and my parents are fine w/ it. but i think they are leaning more to college. im not sure wht nick wants to do. hes always changing his mind.
My friends Dad works on the Harry Potter films and he has been told that the 7th book will be two films. I hope they bring them out back to back, i'd hate to have to wait a year to see the 2nd part.
my friend (that was in the air force) went to MSU with me. He joined ROTC and that paid for a lot of his college. After he graduated he spent 2 years at a base in North Dakota. (with one trip to Iraq) if your brother had questions i am sure my friend would be willing to talk to him.
awesomee! thanks becky! but i gotta go, the bells gonna ring any minute. ttyl guys!
i am going to get some lunch. talk to you guys later!!!
Bye kayla! wouldnt it be cool if the first film ended at the end of the chapter of Bathilda's secret?that would be great!
I think it might be quite a good idea if they split the final film in half in terms of doing justice to it, but the wait between the two would be agonising! Also, since when has anyone with 1/10 of a brain read - let alone believed - the Daily Mail? They don't publish news, they publish far fetched stories to sell newspapers and I 4 1 would have 4t that this story is unlikely to come from any source other than some1s imagination or a VERY manipulated quote. So, if Ur excited about the idea of an extra Potter film, I wouldn't hold my breath.
