I agree, since PoA is my fave, I want to see every
single word in it on screen.  Plus, I also want
everyone to remember, if you were making these films,
your vision would be different from anyone else's
vision, so if you don't like Columbus' verson, save
enough money and practice enough to buy the rights and
redo the movie!
