Did anyone read 'JKR unoffical biograph'? It is ok and it has some 
interesting infos.

One of them is about the movie. JKR and S.Spirberg did not agree on 
how the movie should be made. He wanted to transfer everything to 
America.

I also wonder if everyone knew about the audition for the director.
Columbus got it because he wanted to shoot the movie as close as 
possible to the book. Chiris was chosen because his vision agreed 
with JKR's idea of movie version should be.

I wrote before this. I really think if some other big name director 
had done it, they might have had a better CGI and stuff but it would 
have been no longer our HP movie.

Everyone like to complain here and there. That's fine. However, when 
I heard some people saying that they could have wrote a better script 
or some other major director should have done the movie, I really 
start wondering.

I want him to shoot at least next two. 

Only things worries me is when the production let them go to the 
level of PG13. I personally belive COS should be PG-13. In fact, this 
movie was one of the scariest for PG.
