Harry Potter Question

Do you feel like Breaking Dawn being made in to 2 parts is copying Deathly Hallows?

Personally, I feel like it is copying. I still doubt that Twilight will make as much money as DH did. What do you feel?

No.

You act as though the Harry Potter company owns the very idea of splitting a book to movie thing into two pieces.

Besides, it's basically the equivalent of just doing a movie series, like with sequels.

To be honest, it makes perfect sense. I mean, even if the studios ARE just doing it for more money, both BD and DH ARE big books with a lot of things going on in them. It's just logical to split them in two, and I for one am grateful at least that they split DH, because it probably would have been a disaster if they'd tried to cram it all into one film.

But seriously, you act like two studios using a similar idea is copying.

By a stretch, that would mean that Harry Potter copied every other movie series, oh my god, they made Harry Potter sequels! Warner Bros is copying every other film series out there!
And Robert Pattinson was in Harry Potter AND Twilight! Ergo Twilight copied the idea of using Robert Pattinson!

Seriously. Claiming it's copying is just ridiculous.

Yes. I know Harry Potter isn't the first movie to do things in parts but I highly doubt that Breaking Dawn would be in 2 parts if Deathly Hallows wasn't.

A book being split into two parts dosen't originally belong to Harry Potter. It never did.
Breaking Dawn is thickest book among all four and has a lot of things going on. So the result would be really bad if they just cram it all into one movie. So I don't really have a problem with it being it split into 2 like DH.

I feel that Deathly Hallows copied Kill Bill, and It.

So, technically, DH and BD are copying other movies.

The right to split a movie into parts is not -- nor will it ever be -- owned by a single franchise. Breaking Dawn needs to be split in two, just as Deathly Hallows did.

My Dad's thoughts on that:
"All they want is money. That's the only reason its two parts!"
Mine:
"Pfft.. they just wish they were as cool as Harry Potter!!!"
I bet my dad is right though... =_= either way I'm pretty pissed that I have to put up with two more Twilight movies.. I say they're biting off HP but who knows.. tis only mua's opinion lol XD

I was thinking about that too. But, I guess Twilight fans want it right like us HP fans did. In order to have a movie be more accurate based on a book, it has to be split into parts. If not you would have a 8 to 10 hour movie...lol.

The same could be said for HP fans erlina41. Most HP fans get awfully nasty with Twilight. fans also. It's actually pretty sad. They're books everyone should get over it and. actually give constructive answers instead of "you're stupid" or "Twilight/HP is stupid"!

They just want a reason to keep the twilight crazyness going on for another year by dragging it out slowly. And I'm sure they got some of the idea from Breaking Dawn.

isn't that exactly what the HP series is doing? Trying to prolong the adiction. Every movie tries to keep the craziness going.

yeah well deathly hallows is probably the longest book i have ever seen and well BD could easily be done in one movie

If you actually checked you would see that The Deathly Hallows book is only FIVE pages longer than the Breaking Dawn book. So do those five extra pages constitute the right for a two part movie over Breaking Dawn?

in a way yes, Harry Potter has so much information to be in just one movie, I didn't think Breaking Dawn had that much going on to be into 2 movies.

I don't think deciding to make a movie into two parts is much of something you can accuse someone of copying another movie... it's a way to split up a book or series that needs to be done justice in the movie version, as well as making more money on one book into two movies and so they aren't having fans sit through 4 hours to get the movie done, although I would have been more than willing to watch any Harry Potter movie for 4 hours if they could nail everything that was in the book.

I doubt Twilight will make even close to as much money as Deathly Hallows did, as the Twilight series seems (to me, at least) to have just as many haters as it does fans.

I know the Hunger Games series plans on making the film adaption of the last book, Mockingjay, into a two part movie as well. No copying there, either.

I don't necessarily care about the coping aspect of it, it's more are fans going to want to wait a year to see the conclusion of the first part of Breaking Dawn. I saw the first half of Deathly Hallows when it was first released and I had a hard time waiting the from November until last week to see how it ends. I think its a really dumb move to space them that far apart.

Well,I see what your saying..it does seem as though they have 'tried' quite like an annoying child phase"I can do anything better than you" attidude,though I CANNOT see the point in comparing the two in any way,especially when it comes to the twilight books and harry potter novels...but I know that heavy books and heavy novels are being somewhat demanded to be fully screenplay-ed ans stay as close to books as possible-and I have NO problem with that,books are so overlooked and dissmissed by many in this day and age when everything is on a computer screen or tv..lol...even though twilight is not amazing book nor anything riviting,it is still a book and its avid fans have the right to see it fully accomplished on film,as do we which is why Harry Potter 7 was filmed so,though I of course wouldnt have minded 3 movies to close out the Era of Harry Potter and his many adventures and family goings-on:) haha

Just because someone is splitting their film into two parts doesn't meet they're copying. Besides, I don't believe people who work on the Twilight movie would purposefully try to copy off of a big competitor to there's. I think the only reason people seem to think Twilight is copying off of Harry Potter (with the double movies) is because the two are comparted so often.

Of course not. As far as Im concerned if Twilight is copying HP then HP has copied every other two part movie created. Just because you do not like the series please do not bring accusations of intentional copying into the mix. It happens, two franchises compete and someone always has a problem with the other. Besides the two series' have nothing in common, so how can you really compare them?This HP-Twilight feud is getting old. I suppose SM wrote Twilight just to copy JKR right? They are two very successful and separate series' so stop the complaining already, it makes you sound like you're younger than you all probably are. Oh and if you must adamantly declare that Twilight is copying please provide a compelling reason and not just "yes because I hate Twilight" I mean seriously. As someone who has a love of both series I really wonder why some of you get so nasty when someone mentions the supposed "rival" of your preferred series.

No Movie or Production Can Ever, EVER Be as Successful as Harry Potter. People seriously think that the Twilight Saga can beat a Decade Phenomenon? ...Okay let them think so, but
This is true - Harry Potter teaches us story of life, love and the struggles between good and evil.
Twilight teaches girls how to choose between a boyfriend & become pregnant at an early age.
