Breaking Dawn To Be Filmed as TWO Movies. Confirmed? Maybe.

UPDATE: Word is Summit is saying that nothing is official yet. :-)
It doesn't look like Summit has given an official confirmation but it is being reported by HisGoldenEyes (and other sites as well) citing Nikki Finke - Deadline Hollywood as their source.
“I have this from several sources, and it’s definitive. Filming on the back-to-back movies would begin in mid-October, and Summit Entertainment is looking at “high-end” directors. Breaking Dawn is the longest in Stephenie Meyer’s 4-book series lengthwise and it’s the most graphic — presenting birth, attempted murder, death, and of course vampire bites. Published on August 2, 2008, it has a happy ending for most of the characters. Divided into 3 parts, the 1st and 3rd sections are told from the point of view of Bella (Kristen Stewart), and the second section from the perspective of Jacob (Taylor Lautner). It prominently features all 3 favorite characters including Edward (Robert Pattinson). Summit Entertainment no doubt will save money by making these Twilight Saga movies #4 and #5 back to back. Screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg (who’s written all the Twilight Saga films) is currently adapting Breaking Dawn. Eclipse, the 3rd movie, will be released on June 30th.”

What do you guys think? I won't lie, I am a little disappointed. I think they will end up dragging it out to fill 2 movies, and although they would have had to cut stuff out to make it one, I think there was a lot that could have been cut.
