Last Harry Potter Film Cut in Half

Well, I was going to blog about something going on with my library today, but I read this from Variety and had to post about it instead.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the film, is going to be released in TWO parts. The first half comes out in November 2010 (can we think that far ahead?!) and the second part will drop May 2011. Whoa. I'm very, very excited about that since I was already sad that HPDH would be the last film. Even thought they're really "one" it still feels like two.

What do you think about this? I'm guessing people will go see both films in crazy numbers and this will introduce a whole new generation of kids to the Potter books. Whatever gets kids to read--go for it.:)

I agree. As long as kids are reading. :)

At least we know that it's coming out in two parts. I was fuming when I came out of "Pirates of the Caribbean II" because it was such a rip-off and I had no advance warning. But with HP I don't mind the two part filming, especially if it means we get to spend more time on the last year!

I think the more Harry, the better! There was so much jam-packed into that last book I don't see how they could have done it justice with one film.

Counting down to Saddlehill Academy!

  Hii, friends! I'm so very thrilled to remind everyone that NEXT MONTH (!!!) is the release of my first novel in eight years! Ahhhhh!!...
