That's the rumor anyways. I agree with J.K. Rowling that the only way to make the film good is to either have it be four hours or split into two. My only concern is that the book doesn't start getting REALLY good until the last ten chapters or so when Harry and pals break into Gringotts and I'm worried that the first film might be a bit boring outside of the Ministry of Magic action. I still think two films is the way to go though. I hope this is true!
