I was a bit excited but this constant two part money grab bullshit is just too much. In no way was two movies necessary.

I’m not a fan in the slightest but someone else said that the stage production omits a lot of stuff from what is written in the books. If that is true then there’s a possibility that the film(s) could be an expanded version… but it’s probably just a cash grab.
