What if you were to direct a Harry Potter film?

Dave McKean ("MirrorMask"): "I still can't understand why nobody's realized that the 'H.P.' in 'H.P. Lovecraft' actually stands for Harry Potter! I realize there's a lot of documented evidence that suggests it might be Howard Phillips Lovecraft or something equally bank-managerish, but that's true only in the factual sense of the word. So my vote is for the ratings to go up as Harry gets older, so when he's 18, I'd let all that psycho sexual energy that's boiling away behind those prismatic portals he wears over his eyes VOMIT out into the sluices of Hogwarts. That scar in his head splits open, and all the bile and spite that's been seething away behind those endless pages of nice magicians and their nice little spells THRUSTS forth, Cthulhu-like, in fully engorged Cronenbergian ecstatic slug-fingers ... or not."

The rest is here.

I hope to someday be in on the H.P. Lovecraft joke.
