The mention of Bill Nighy saying he will be playing a "goodie" meant that he is playing a good role, not that he is actually playing a character called "goodie". The way it's written makes this confusing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Swissviss (talk • contribs) 22:37, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Surely, Clemence Poesy (Fleur Delacour) and Domnhall Glesson (Bill Weasley) should be included in the cast list also? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.155.190.65 (talk) 14:04, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

John Williams to score "Deathly Hallows"

Hello, I am from Germany. I wanted to say that it is not confirmed that Williams will score the last "Potter" movie. So it is not right that Williams is showed as composer on this site. PS: My english isn't so good. Thank you, --79.232.51.50 (talk) 12:17, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, the article uses as reference one statement by David Heyman in which he says "David Heyman confirmed they have indeed talked to Mr. Williams about his return to writing the music for the series, noting 'if we can make work , and that's a big if, for his schedule and ours then yes' ". It doesn't sound as a fact to me either.--Luke in spanish (talk) 17:01, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I saw this last night and was briefly excited. It would be great if John Williams were to score "Deathly Hallows, Part 2," but there has been no confirmation by any official source. In an interview that's over a year old, producer David Heyman stated that it would be great if Williams could return (which is cited in the article). Since that time, Alexandre Desplat has been confirmed for Part 1, and no confirmation has been made about ANY composer for Part 2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KingEdmund (talk • contribs) 17:17, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge Proposal:

Until Further information should come out, I think we should merge this page with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows under a FILM section, and remove the long cast list for now. WP standards do say that when prodution on a film begins, to create a seperate film page, but I think if we removed the long and (unnessacary) cast section, this would be fit for a merge into the book article until we get more information on the two films. This will settle a dispute over the two films and whether they should be one or two articles, and will condence an article that could be placed in a better suited spot.ChaosMaster16 (talk) 23:51, 12 January 2010 (UTC)ChaosMaster16[reply]

Opposed : I don't agree. There is information coming about the production of the movie every week. It would be unnecessary to merge and recreate the article in a month. As for creating 2 article, one for each part, I do not take position. --Stroppolotalk 00:51, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - As you rightly say, the guidelines state that articles should remain if a film is in production. It would therefore be counter productive to merge it. There is plenty of information which could be added to the article, from filming reports etc, but I personally have not had the time. The article is only going to get bigger so there's no point in merging it now. How would that "settle" the currently non-existent "dispute" about whether to have one or two artices? It would have to be unmerged when the films were released. Gran2 13:56, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: The film is in production, and there is more than enough information about it to warrant its own article. Andrea (talk) 17:23, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong oppose: For all the reasons listed above and its ridiculous to have a merge proposal when the content itself is so huge. --Legolas (talk2me) 07:09, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Even with the plot and cast sections taken out, this is definitely substantial enough to have its own page. C Teng [talk] 21:49, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cast list section too long

This section needs to be shortened significantly. It should be about as long as the same sections in the other articles about the films. DP76764 (Talk) 02:51, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the cast list should be shortened but not to the degree of the rest of the films. I think that since it hasn't come out yet, it should be longer than the others because people want to know whether or not an actor or character is going to be in the film(s)--Debbie rocks (talk) 23:51, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, that's not really what Wikipedia is about to provide that much of that kind of information. If that's what people are looking for, they should be going to IMDB instead. Take a look through WP:FILM, particularly the Style section for ideas on how this section should be structured. DP76764 (Talk) 02:33, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
IMDB is not a reliable source and dont forget The Deathly Hallows has a lot more characters than normal appearing it should remain as is for the confirmed characters not shortened, maybe if they were made in to sub sections such as Major characters, Villians, Death eaters etc... Just an idea The Movie Master 1 (talk) 02:37, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
True about IMDB, but that doesn't mean we have to take over those responsibilities here. All the minor characters that make appearances should be listed here anyway. No need to duplicate them here. DP76764 (Talk) 02:47, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
How did you choose which cast members to eliminate and which to keep? Small5th (talk) 18:02, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if you look at the same section in the other movie articles, it's fairly easy to see who should be listed and who should not. Also, looking through WP:FILM helps. I just made a first pass at the list; many more still need to be trimmed out. DP76764 (Talk) 18:10, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dursleys

Will the Dursleys appear? jc iindyysgvxc (my contributions) 09:20, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unknown right now although they could easily be taken out though I doubt it as the film will follow the book more closely and its the last film, wait until its confirmed The Movie Master 1 (talk) 02:24, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Huge Fire

A huge fire recently broke out at Leavesden Studios during the filming of a scene where Hogwarts gets blown up. 6 fire engines had to be brought in. That's something you might want to add. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.244.151.87 (talk) 05:20, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
