Sounds like the evolution of the banking system. :-) I watched the movie you referenced, but the downloadable version was at too low a resolution & went by too fast to get any better understanding of what was going on. I assume that you mean that _any_ configuration of exactly 2 black holes -- regardless of size ratio, energy & angular momentum -- will eventually merge into one black hole, with the emission of gravitational radiation. Even dumber question: what eventually happens to the resulting black hole & its gravitational radiation? In the classical GR case, is this an infinite universe?

The second problem, that of two black holes, is nontrivial, and is a topic of current research. There does not exist a static solution since there will be gravitational radiation, leading to the eventual merger of the black holes. Google search for "black hole merger". The first hit is a movie that may possibly be helpful.
