Do you think that splitting the 7th book into 2 separate films was a good idea? Or do you think that it would have been better to cram it all into one really long movie? Please tell me what you think and why. Colin

I think it is really good to separate it into 2 films since in the last few films, they can't really show every detail because of limited time. And in fact the storyline got so many things to tell and most of them can not be missed. In fact, the sixth film didn't talk about the Horcrux much, I think they need a lot of time to explain that in the 7th movie.

The first movie is already finished filming so hopefully, it will be in cinemas within a month!

Its fine with me if they are going to split up deathly hallows. There are so many details in the book and I think they are also going to put more details in the movie, which is something I hope they are going to do. I hope its going to be as interesting as the book.

They will most likely be good but they will be very different to the other harry potter films because these two are set in many different places while the previous ones were all in Hogwarts.

it's probably better that they split it to have more detail in the movie. plus, to have all the good stiff and fit it in one really long movie might dull it

I'm kind of on the fence with this issue. If Deathly Hallows was made into one movie, it would feel more smooth and "right," but at the same time it would probably be way too long for anyone to actually enjoy all the way through. There are probably more pro's [than con's] to split it into two movie, so I guess that's ok with me.

I think it's good idea because I don't like too long movies, but I want as much as possible to be in the movie. Plus I like to go to the cinema. It's a quite long book so I think it'll be better to use time and get as much details as possible. Of course, most people will know how it ends so it's not really going to be a surprise cliffhanger or anything like that on the end of film number one.

I think it is a good idea because maybe they will be able to show the story better with more detail.Also deathly hallows has a going on in the story and a lot of it is pretty meaningful and it is a must to have it all. I hope they both turn out good

I believe that they will be good because looking at the other harry potter films, they were all considerably good.

I'm not sure about it being spilt because i quite easily forget what has happened in a film and so i think i would have to play catch up..but at the same time the films are so long i dont think the cinema would attract as many people tp sit through a long film even with rest breaks

The deathly hallows, and all the other books should've been split into two movies. I know some may disagree, in my opinion only the 3rd book was okay (sorry haven't read the 3rd, 2nd and 1st books) but looking at the size of the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th books... I can safely say that 70% of the books wasn't included into the movie... which made the movies seem rushed and parts of it were left to explain in the dumbest ways (in some cases). Harry Potter and the half blood Prince was well made, they brought characters to life, but even that movie seemed to miss lots of funny moments from the book. Not to mention... the end is coming which makes me unhappy. Just 1 more year of Harry Potter and it's the absolute END.

i would think that splitting the last movie of harry potter is a good idea in the sense that the production staff will be able to put in all the scenes properly in such a way that we will be lead into the right path of the story...
