I read somewhere that LIAM AIKEN (the kid from "Stepmom" and the current
film "I Dreamed of Africa") is campaigning to play Harry Potter in the
movie. Considering he has already previously worked with the director,
Chris Columbus (he directed him in "Stepmom"), I think he has a decent
shot (that is, if J.K. Rowling would give him chance). What are your
opinions on this?

For those of you who may doubt Chris Columbus's qualification to direct
the film version, I'd like to inform you that he also wrote "Gremlins"
and an animated fantasy film called "Little Nemo" so I think he may be
well-versed in balancing dark, twisted humor with innocent childhood
fantasies. Just a bit of info.
