Hell you can always introduce intermissions or something. I would have LOVED a comprehensive Goblet of Fire, it's still my favourite book!

It'd make for one hell of a movie marathon.

I'd definitely watch that.

the only people who would watch this would be die hard harry potter fans. seeing how they are cutting everything out of two hour films, only die hard harry potter fans understand whats going on, therefore only die hard harry potter fans keep going. i say, GIVE THE FANS WHAT THEY WANT!!!

That would be awesome!

What I don't like about the HP movies is that they can't stand on their own. I know it must be difficult to make a smooth movie adaptation of such a long, detailed book series, which is why the movies shouldn't have started production until JK Rowling had finished writing the series. What the makers of the films need to understand is the movies aren't going to be watched by all HP book-readers. When I saw OOTP in theaters, I sat next to someone who hadn't read the series and asked me questions basically the whole time. When making a movie, you can't assume that people will understand the unexplained or unfinished just because it's answered in the book.

I wouldn't want a ten hour epic - they're not movies, they're just books on screen. It's really important to me that film adaptations of books are smooth and easy to understand for everyone, not just fans of the books. I watched Fellowship of the Ring without reading the books and I loved it and understood every bit of it. I later read the books and walked out of Return of the King still loving the movies, despite cuts and changes. It's sad how the HP filmmakers can't achieve what Peter Jackson and his crew achieved because Harry Potter is such a great series

I would not mind sitting for 10 hours watching Harry Potter...seriously..

If someone had not read the book then they would not sit for 10 hours in the cinema....

Keep the facts from the book but also add some spin for the movie...

Dom

Yeah, but they are asking would YOU rather, not would people who have not read the books rather.

but people who havent read the books dont want to watch something that confuses the hell out of them for two hours and leave still not knowing whats going on. if they made it twn hours then they probably woudnt show it in theatres anyway.

Most of the films wouldn't make sense if you haven't read the books, or so my brother says. 10 Hour film would still be awesome!

I could die happy.

IT NEEDS EVERYTHING BUT THE 5TH DIDNT HAVE ANYTHING

I proudly admit that I could quite happily sit and watch Harry Potter for ten hours. *Ignores shouts of 'DORK!' as she walks away*

i would stay up one week straigth waitching them lol
but i like the way they do the movies

I would watch it for 10 hours.. but I know the rest of my family would not so maybe they could have a 10hr one and a 2 hour one, 10hrs for the Harry potter lovers, and 2 hours for those who just want to watch it.

I hate when they change and cut out stuff. So, everything included would be AMAZING.

Then the people who refuse to read the books would at least know the sub stories.

YEAH!!!! TEN HOURS!!! lets do it, every little detail in it, but yes, it would bore my family, but they already have to deal with me, so HA, and it would be perfect for long car rides

I would happily sit in the cinema for ten hour's for Harry Potter!!!=) bring it on!

I would certainly have no problem with a 10-hour harry potter movie, but... i don't think it's a realistic idea. The books are simply not that big. 3 or 4-4,5 hours though, seem a perfect duration time for their adaptation on screen AND bearable to someone who is not a die-hard fan. ;)

that would be awsome

That would be kinda cool, though I like how it is

10 hr epic would b ok 2 :)

i think that's a brilliant idea! but the epic would be fun if you have a good chunk of time to kill! i plan on having a HP marathon day in the coming months. maybe around Christmas.

it would be so cool! i hate it when the movie ends

Then spend a week watching them all, one every day. If they were all 10 hours, it would be awesome.

10 hours of Harry Potter? Yes please, Any day.

The two parts is a good idea. Though the 10-hour is also appealing :)

10 HR EPIC HP MARATHON

Unlike POA

THAT WOULD BE FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!

^^ Agree with @Sylarfan

I Really Wish They Did This For Deathly Hallows:)

I don't mind them cutting things out, but it's when they cut out the important parts, or parts that make the movie understandable that I get upset.

A ten hour epic would be AWESOME, but it would be too long and i just love it when they change scenes and add others and take what isn't necessary, but a two part for ALL the books would have been better than two-hour cause they do take out important details that if i hadn't read the books, I might not have understood, so two movies per book would be better

THAT would sooo cool!!

oops I didn't see that choice that says 'Have a ten hour epic, with everything included'

I don't so much dislike that parts are taken out, but I hate it when they change how things happen to add "more drama" even though there was plenty of drama in the book

This is my DREAM!

A film series which included all the important story moments (some of them didn't), and also more of the little character moments which book fans missed because they'd been looking forward to seeing them but they were omitted. They should have made the films slightly longer than your average film - about 3 or 3.5 hours, like the LOTR films, with intermissions halfway - to include such moments. Not 10 hours though. That'd be overkill. And I don't think the books actually have enough content to be 10 hours each without making loads of extra stuff up.
