Hopefully the movies will be the same way. i also agree that the last couple of movies would have done well split into two. there has just been too much information cramed into the scripts and important parts left out or altered. i really am looking forward to the next and final two of the series. i thnk its a great idea to split the book into two movies. and i agree the book was long but it was also incredibly well written and riveting.

All together its six hours but it was never released in theaters as a six hour movie. Try releasing a six hour long single sitting movie in the US and watch the box office bomb 10th kingdom was a miniseries.

Just like the 10th Kingdom (a six hour movie). I just wish they would do the movies correctly. Also it’s just plain stupid to split it in 2! you can make a movie longer than 3 hours.

Well for 1 they should;ve used Dobby, the house elf, in 4 & 5. It would have been a lot more simpler to use him. How are they suppost to keep the house elves out if the rest of the movies? Although I do look forward to see the rest of the movies! To me I think it’s a bit insane. Well for 1 they should;ve used Dobby, the house elf, in 4 & 5.

I'm glad they're bringing this director back, because he turned what was my least favorite book of the series into my favorite. And considering book 6 isn't nearly so bulky of a title to work with, I look forward to how the movie comes out. :) For the amount of material that was in book 5 (which was by far the longest and most tedious), the “Order of the Phoenix” movie has been, IMHO, my favorite of the lot so far (right after Azkaban).

The book, like the previous three volumes, needed at least 1/3 cut out to improve the pacing and tighten up the story.

The first three movies could have been (should have been) three hours long to do the source material any kind of justice. And they should have been splitting the scripts in two from book four on.

While I found parts of HPatDH slow and boring at times, there isn't much that isn't integral to the story.

Starting with <i>Order of the Phoenix</i>, it seems to me, all the HP narratives got too unwieldy for one movie. Aside from the obvious money-grubbing imperative from the studio, I think this is a positive development -- the book will be better served and the fans will be happier.
