HMyc> Not at this rate. If Columbus gets his act together and makes the kids less
HMyc> wooden...

I think they were fine.

HMyc> ... the CGI halfway decent...

It wasn't *that* bad, it's just that centaur...

HMyc> ... someone else for Dumbledore...

I nominate Sir John Mills!

HMyc> an adaptation
HMyc> which is true not only to the letter but to the *spirit* of
HMyc> the books...

I think "spirit" is more important than "letter".

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

It's wondeful to see the Potterverse "come to life" of course, but as
a movie in its own right, no, I don't think it's in any way outstanding.

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

And John Williams sacked and replaced with either John Barry or
Vangelis!
