1. I spent all of last evening paranoid about whether or not every little hitch in the back of my throat was indication of cold or not. Could've sworn it felt like the onset of sore throat. Then this morning I woke up and everything was normal... I don't think my paranoia can take the strain of another session unfortunately. T_T
2. I heard that the director struggled with whether to split the movie into 2 parts or not and in the end put it all in one film. My guess is that the first half just didn't have a big enough climax to sustain its own separate movie, and the second half would lose some of its emotional weight without the buildup in the first half. Still, I think there are some parts that could be removed or simplified in the unified work... but I guess the director didn't want to give those parts up.
3. Not sure primary school kids have the patience to sit through 3 hours, even if there's plenty of action. My butt felt sore after I got home (though half of that is also because I had to drive my cousin to stanford after the movie, and the back & forth took over 1.5 hrs because we hit rush hour on the way back).
