Modest Proposal for GoF Director

I hope Juan Corazon works out for the director of PoA. I sometimes 
wonder how these directors get chosen.

If, however, the director for GoF isn't Corazon, I know who would be 
perfect as screenwriter, director, or both.  He's written the script 
for a successful family movie and written and directed some of the 
most suspenseful movies I've seen. He works well with child actors and 
understands how children and adults relate. I think he's just right.

M. Night Shyamalan.

The director of "The Sixth Sense," "Unbreakable," and "Signs" also 
wrote the screenplay for Stuart Little [the first one]. He works with 
the supernatural superbly, without beating your head in with it. GoF 
is a much darker movie and the material needs a director of 
intelligence who can handle it.

while we're at it, I know who I'd like to do the music for the movie, 
if John Williams doesn't; Jo Hisaishi or Patrick Doyle. Hisaishi does 
the music for Hayao Miyazaki's movies and Patrick Doyle has done 
Kenneth Branagh's.
