I've never watched anything he's done, so I dunno if I'd rather it be true or not.. | |

That's funny... I read that David Yates was to direct HBP, in addition to OotP. It also says here that he is. *shrug* | |

I have never heard of him either. Why can't the HP series ever have just one director direct more than one. Chris Columbus has been the only one to direct 2 so far.

Lost, 24, Amazing Race, and South Park are my shows. Monty Python rules! Guitar Hero makes me feel like a rock star. 300 was stunning and I would watch it everyday if I could. Mountain Dew and Sausage Pizza are the BEST! Everyone is always shocked when they find out I dislike Ginny. I am German and am gosh darn proud of it. Demitri Martin and Jim Gaffigan are the funniest.

Hmm...I haven't seen any of those films. I remember seeing previews for A Mid Summer Nights Dream, and they looked pretty good. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.  | |

It must be very nerve racking knowing that you are making a film that people already have CRAZY high expectations for. Good Luck!

I don't think that I have ever seen any of his movies, so I don't really know what his style is. I hope that I like it though, if there is a possibility of directing HBP.

Interesting. I've never seen anything by him but having someone fresh could help. On the other hand, it could hurt. I just don't know. But I guess well just find out around Christmas.

I recognise the Emperor's Club and it was alright. I didn't think it was that great. I'm not enthusiastic about this choice but as long as he's able to properly convey HBP, I guess it doesn't matter who directs it. Other directors have been a flop (in my opinion) so far.
