Warner Brothers announce new source of Harry Potter money.

When I read the last Harry Potter book I was struck by a singular thought. It's going to be an easy movie to make. Just cut out all the depressed camping in the middle and it's a 2 hour movie.

Unfortunately Warner Brothers don't quite see it this way. Indeed I can imagine all WB see is the thought of the goose stopping golden egg production.
So the answer was obvious to them. Lets make two movies out of the last book.

"I think it's the only way you can do it, without cutting out a huge portion of the book," Radcliffe said

Goody. An hour of being depressed in the forest.
Part one out Nov 2010, part two Mat 2011.
