I don't think it's wise to return to an old director. Although Alfonso did amazing things for the series and took it away from a kids movie. It's nice to get new and fresh perspectives.

I don't want to see Cuaron directing one of the last films. He made a good film with PoA, but it was too far from the book, he omitted to much. Perhaps is Yates good enough to do another film (two in a row like Columbus), but we'll have to wait until next year.

Wow, that was a really good interview. I really feel like Rupert is coming out of the shy stage he's been in for years. Used to be, he wouldn't really say anything in interviews. But now he's coming into his own. Brilliant.

Ah! I get so annoyed whenever I get movie-news. Because, I can't decide whether or not I really want to see it. I mean, I will, but I'm not sure if I'm really looking forward to it (being a hard core book fan and all), but all these news makes me eager to see it... Bah..

That was a great interview. I hope that they bring Columbus back. I think he did the best job out of all of them, so please bring him back.

School Governor says:

I agree with Rupert's Fangirl that Cuaron should not be allowed to direct any further Potter films. He strayed too far from the book and the feeling of the story. Colombus is also more of a Children's film director and was perfect for the first two films, but the last two films will be completely different.
I feel continuity is important and if Yates is doing a good job for Phoenix, then let him continue with films 6 & 7.

I hope Alfonso Cuaron returns for the sixth and seventh. He did an excellent job with prisoner of azkaban.

Interesting. I wonder if they will put up a readable script since I am at work and it would be suspicious if I put eadphones on. Oh well, I'll listen to it at home.
