There should be enough action in the first movie. I would have to disagree with the statement about all the action and interesting stuff happens in the second half of the book though. If I remember correctly (haven’t read the book in a longtime) in the first few chapters there is a massive battle in the real world, where I think even Voldemort is involved. I’m not 100% on that, but I have no doubt the first movie will have enough interesting stuff.

I believe they are making the movie into 2 parts to follow the book as closely as they can. They want to include everything that 2 movies will allow, so it should have a great deal of stuff. Of course it’s an adaptation, so they will take liberties and change some things, so the first movie will be more interesting, etc.

The poster, I love everything but the HP7. I would have preferred “The Deathly Hollows”, or the usual “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows”.

The trailer is for both movies however, as a reader of the books a realized that much of the “action” and content of the trailer is from the 2nd half of the book and presumably from the second film.

I have been wondering since they announced the split how they were going to do the first half of the book as a complete film. Although I Love all of Deathly Hallows the book, the most interesting and climiactic events occur in the 2nd half of the book.

I am worried how the movie Part 1 is going to come off and how they are going to split it.

Going back to the trailer, I worry that if the trailer(s) shows too much climactic action from the second film then fans might feel disapointed when they go to see Part 1 and don’t see any of these scenes.

Actually, I am now starting to get the feeling that the Producers already know that Part 1 doesn’t have much action and are stacking the trailers with scenes from part 2.

I don’t know, what do you guys think?
