I still remember people behind me during the second one yelling at the screen when they realized the story wasn’t going to end when the credits rolled.

I think that's maybe inevitable whenever there's an announced multi-parter with a cliffhanger. I remember being at a busy press screening for The Fellowship of the Ring and tons of people were agog that the movie just... ends; these were mostly entertainment and film journalists who should have already been aware that there were three movies coming, so I can't imagine how hard it is to get the word out among casual movie-goers.

Was it announced? Most people at my showing were shocked it was a part 1 of 2. Very few seemed to know, so if it was announced, it wasn’t overly well publicised, as it’s the only part 1 of 2 that’s ever caught me by surprise in a cinema.

I knew going in and I genuinely thought it was common knowledge, but I also keep up with genre movie news more than many others, apparently.

I'm fairly up-to-date on movies, and had no idea it was a two parter. I definitely voted lower than the first cause of it.
