Chris Columbus orders scripts for movie 4 and 5

[shelaghcol]

I sincerely doubt any child, no matter how big a fan of the books, 
would be able to sit - even with an intermission - through a five or 
six hour movie.

Besides, the ticket cost to cover such an event would probably be 
double normal prices, just to make sure the theatres and the film 
companies didn't lose money on such a project.

I don't think I'd have a problem with one movie at Thanksgiving and 
the other at Christmas, but based upon the current situation (which 
of course isn't necessarily what it would be three years from now) 
GoF part one might still be at theatres when GoF part two came out. 
Thus putting the first movie in competition with itself. 

Frankly, I think this prospect might damage the small brain cells of 
some producers.....
