I love the inclusion of David Lynch (the NC-17 Harry Potter to be sure - I'd
pay good money to hear Snape speak ala Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet),
although my vote goes for one of the four HP "auditioned" directors - Terry
Gilliam. I read somewhere that J-Ro preferred him herself, but even if that
weren't true (and I couldn't tell you where I read it) he would have been my
pick. That man can handle darkness and humor and has a complete gift for
artistic direction (his sets are always mind-blowing ala Jean-Pierre Jeunet).
Brazil, his best, is easily in my Top Five Greatest Movies Ever, but I also
love Time Bandits, The Fisher King and 12 Monkeys (not to mention Monty
Python and the Holy Grail, co-director).
I think the pawns of those chess set pieces in the final task sure look
Gilliam-esque. But that's probably just me.
