When I read this article, I wondered what they were going to call the 
movie if they had intended dropping the Deathly Hallows from the 
plot ???

However, David Heyman then goes on to say that in splitting the films 
in two they are going to do so by focussing on separate themes for 
each movie. I guess the two obvious themes are Horcruxes versus 
Hallows, although given how the Horcrux hunt went on for so long with 
little immediate result (otherwise referred to by many as the great 
camping trip) and 3 horcruxes were destroyed very near the end of the 
book, I'm not sure how this could be done. 

For all that we complain about the scriptwriters deleting and moving 
things around, it sounds like a difficult task to me. 

Any thoughts on what other themes might be used to split the movies 
into two ? 

Alison, also wondering if they are just going to go with Part 1 and 
Part 2 as titles.
