[HPFGU-Movie] GOF ONE movie????

[Silverthorne]

Harry Potter is already one essential story being told in 7 parts anyway, it would be hard to split up one of those parts. Here's hoping that movie is between 2.5 and 3 hours!

One of my co-workers is a huge movie buff (Wants to be a director and screen writer), and keeps track of all this sort of stuff. According to him, they're going to try and fit most of the book into a four hour (Give or take a half hour) movie, with an intermission planned after the first two hours during theater showings.

Hopefully, that'll be enough time to fit everything in that's important to the story itself...although I would also expect some very creative cutting and snipping to take place with less essential sub-plots, not to mention alterations as well. They already seem to be doing that with the werewolf scene in the third movie...and although I AM an avid believer in Snape as a 'good guy' (But not a 'nice' guy...), the change sort of disconcerted me...

Anyhow, the point is since they DID do that, I suspect they'll start doing that with all the remaining movies...especially since Rowling's books just keep getting bigger with each installment...

Maybe they should have tried for a Harry Potter series instead...lol
