We've had 4 directors so far in the HP series - which of the 4 would you rather see return to pull directorial duty in the final installment?  The four options are above, and I'm sure you all know how a poll works...  Wink  Lol!  Anyone who wants to give fancy explanations for their vote, feel free to go right ahead.

Cuaron, simply because he made a *FILM,* not a book of moving pictures. 'Nuff said.

Well, as a "film", POA was decent, but as a film based on a book, it really sucked. IMO, he ruined the story for the sake of the "film" and that made it a failure. If Cauron comes back for DH, I will not be seeing it.

I'm laughing, only because I seem to have found this very strange... divide.

My purely HP friends, who are not film buffs/theatre geeks, HATE PoA, the movie.

My HP theatre/film friends LOVE PoA, the movie.

All of them are rabid HP fans, many cross over into Pullman, Pratchett, Tolkien, Lewis, and etc. as fantasy geeks. What's even better is that I totally understand both sides, but I seem to be one of the few who does. Mind you, these are HP fans who loved Book 7. (Has anyone met someone in REAL LIFE who didn't like DH?)

I don't know why, but this just strikes me as very funny.
