Any news of the two parts being edited into one film?

This is what screenwriter Bob Goodman had to say on the subject:

WF: Additionally, do you think we’ll ever see an edition of this movie with both parts connected together? Would that work, or does the cliffhanger for Part One make this a bit difficult? Did you write this adaptation as a single movie or a two-part entity?

BG: I wrote it to work both ways, and personally, I hope people watch both parts together, with just a brief intermission between them. That would be my recommended viewing method. I can't speak for the studio’s plans, but I hope (and assume) they’ll release both as a single disc. It's funny, my biggest concern about literally cutting the two together is that I so love the handling of the titles on them -- that smash cut to the main title and Chris Drake's awesome music at the end of Part 1, and the slow fade-up of TV commentators’ voices over the logo cards at the top of Part 2 –- that it would be a shame to lose those.

I hope they release two versions, I personally dont want both on one disc simply for the reason stated, the ending to part 1 and the opening to part 2 as separate films are so awesome they cant be re edited or have the music replaced

I got your restraining order right here, RESTRAIN THIS!
