Not at this rate. If Columbus gets his act together and makes the kids less
wooden, the CGI halfway decent, someone else for Dumbledore, an adaptation
which is true not only to the letter but to the *spirit* of the books, then
it *might* be possible.

Of course, it could also run into the problem that the Academy are
disparaging towards any film which is popular.

At any rate, I certainly don't think it deserved to win anything for the
PS/SS effort, as much as I enjoyed the film while in the cinema.

--John, who wants Columbus sacked and replaced with Peter Jackson from LOTR.
