Two-part DH film confirmed

[Saundra]

It really hasn't been once a year ... more like once every 18 months. There 
will be a solid 2 years between HBP and DH part 1 which I think is necessary 
to get it right (This is the last chance for this lot). Also, I think shooting both 
movies at once is more difficult. 

If David Yates is smart he'll shoot a whole lot of extra footage for the director 
cut dvd since blu-ray can hold a lot of extras.
