I have sat in amazement at the theaters recently, paying attention to how 
many mega-hits WB is having.  I can't think of them right this instant, but the 
majority of the "big" movies lately seem to all be WB pictures.  So they should 
be quite nicely in the black, and the HP pictures especially should be 
keeping them well in the black, with huge box office receipts and huge video/DVD 
sales, PLUS the movies being shown on TV frequently, etc.  So I can't see how 
"budget" could be a huge problem when the franchise is so strong.  I'd go for 
either a Matrix like "to be continued" or a 4 hour movie with an intermission.  
But if they've made their decision, I doubt we can change their minds now.  
However, if somebody has an address to use to contact them, one they will 
actually receive and READ, I'm one who will write them about it.
