“I totally regret it. I totally do,” said Francis Lawrence
“I totally regret it. I totally do. I’m not sure everybody does, but I definitely do,” he said of releasing had their own separate dramatic questions” and different arcs, but he understands why some fans didn’t like that it was split.
“In an episode of television, if you have a cliffhanger, you have to wait a week or you could just binge it and then you can see the next episode. But making people wait a year, I think, came across as disingenuous, even though it wasn’t,” he said. “Our intentions were not to be disingenuous.”“In truth, we got more on the screen out of the book than we would’ve in any of the other movies because you’re getting close to four hours of screen time for the final book. But,” he said.
“I would never let them split the book in two,” Lawrence said about the new film. “There was never a real conversation about it. It’s a long book, but we got so much shit for splitting into two — from fans, from critics, from everybody — that I was like, ‘No way. I’ll just make a longer movie.
