I have the same feeling towards a two-movies scenario--not a good 
idea.  I would favour a mini-series to keep everything in but can't 
see how WB would make the truck-load of money out of that.

I'll keep the QWC but there are lots of things that are not important 
plotwise and can be cut down, e.g. the S.P.E.W. (sorry Hermione), the 
Bagman sub-plot and siriusly trim down the Rita sub-plot.  No mercy 
here.

I'll keep everything from Padfoot Returns onwards and make most of 
the cut from the first 400 pages or so.
