That was not what I was driving at. First the studio would never do 
that. Second, the director has almost complete control of the 
picture. I really have no complaint about the first 2 movies, and am 
looking forward to POA. That said, if the studio keeps thinking that 
they are making a childrens picture, then that is what will be made. 
I am advocating that the adult fans bring to the the attention of WB 
that it is no longer a childrens story, and it is important to  
bring the movie up to the itellectual level of the remaining books. 
That certain is not telling the studio how to make a movie.
