CLAIMS that it would be impossible to cram the 608-page Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows into just one film were last night believed by absolutely no-one.

Just make it fucking stop
Studio bosses said they would be forced to make two epic movies from the final installment because they simply could not decide which of JK Rowling's brilliant words to leave out.

Tom Booker, head of project development at Warner Brothers, said: "This is a book filled with stunning pronouns, dazzling prepositions and world class punctuation.

"If we could, we'd make it into 12 films, each lasting 90 minutes, released three at a time, followed by a huge collector's edition DVD boxed-set that comes with a free hat. Just so we can remain true to JK's literary vision."

But 11 year-old Nathan Muir from Watford said: "Bollocks. They just want to make twice as much money."

He added: "I may only be 11 but that doesn't mean I'm a fucking moron."

Thirteen year-old Molly Gilmore, from Chester, added: "You bunch of greedy bastards. I don't mind going to see two films - it's not like I've got a job - but please don't take me for a twat."

Meanwhile Roy Hobbs, an executive producer at Universal, said: "John Grisham's A Time to Kill is well over 500 pages but we still manged to 'cram' that into what was, admittedly, a confusingly tedious two and a half hours."
