Harry Potter Dodges a Bludger

Apparently, some of the crew of the film of HP and the Deathly Hallows, part 1, were drinking at a pub and left behind one of the scripts.  Oooops!  They were able to get it back without too much drama. 

Of course, since the book has been out for awhile, there really is only one big spoiler for the movie--where do the break the book into two?  How does the first movie end to set up the second?

My guess is below:

I believe that the movie will end with Dobby's death and the decision to break into Gringott's.  This leaves the last movie with several big pieces: the entry into and out of the bank; the Dragon flight; the entry into Hogsmead, and then the long battle combined with the search for the last Horcrux. 

I could be wrong--they can break the book when Harry and his pals get picked up and are forced into the Malfoy mansion. 

Your guesses?

And yes, I was long overdue for a HP post.

One possible place to divide the two would be at the point that Harry, Ron and Hermione realize that they have to go back to Hogwarts. The final battle is full of important scenes like Aberforth giving the low down on what really happened when Dumbledore's sister was killed, as well as the all the scenes in the castle during the initial fight, Snape's memories and of course Harry going off to die and the fall of Voldemort. It seems like this would be a logical spot because the first movie would be the set up (including some big scenes like the bank escape) and the 2nd part would be sort of the climax. That's at least what I would like to see and what seems logical to me.
