cut it either when they leave Gringots on the dragon cause thats a good climax in the book or at the doe patronous spot.

That would be cool, they'd be flying off into the sunset on a dragon. But it's not a climax. Plus, you don't want them to end on a climax, because then thre would be no climax. Also, it happens way to late in the book, imo.

well you would have to cut it at least when Harry finds out about the hallows. And i guess the dragon part isnt a climax but it is certainly a rise of action.

They could cut it right when Xeno mentions the Deathly Hallows for the first time.

Yeah, I can't decide if I like it there, or when Ron leaves... but I think I'm now leaning towards when Xeno first mentions the Deathly Hallows. I dunno, I keep changing my mind, lmao.

When Ron leaves seems good.

But it has to be where the movie is quiting down so that when the second one starts it wont start out fastly it will just ease its way in.

Right, and after Ron leaves there is a a lull in the story... the book tells of how Harry and Hermione deals without Ron... until eventually Hermione tells Harry that maybe they should go to Godric's Hollow. Then the action picks up again, but it eases back into the action. It isn't abrupt.

That works well. What troubles me is that after they leave Gringotts the rest of the books spans over 24 hours!

Yeah, that's why I'm iffy on that ending. It seems like so much would be crammed into the first film... and the second film will be left with one day that includes mostly just the conclusions.

Yeah, also the ending. I dont want to have actors that ive never seen before to be the older kids. They should spend the extra money to make them look older. Its expensive but worth it.

And another thing we wont see most of the characters in the first part of the movie!

You mean teh epilogue? Oh the last scene has to have Dan, Rupert, adn Emma in it, it wouldn't be a HP film without them from beginning to end.

The first part of the movie? Which part?

There is always a chance they won't ever bother casting Bill and Fleur. Sad

... OMG Dobby dies?



I dunno, the part right after Dobby dies is sort of an awkward place to end... with Harry digging the grave and all.

I think for the second film to pick up it would work.. but I'm not sure about the ending for the first one... it still seems awkward to me. Unless they cut Dobby out of this film, too.

well... the funny thing is that my friend and I were debating this movie being split into way back and we thought the burial of Dobby would be the perfect place to and the firdt movie. the Second movie will be packed to the brim just with the 3 big moments, Gringgotts theft, Hogwarts scenes and Snapes memories.
