He seems to have the artistic vision and hs ilustrted for Tolkien in the past i dont see why not.
We are more connected than ever before, more able to spread our ideas and beliefs, our anger and fears. As we exercise the right to advocate our views, and as we animate our supporters, we must all assume responsibility for our words and actions before they enter a vast echo chamber and reach those both serious and delirious, connected and unhinged.

Because there is no such person as "Allan Howe".
EDIT: Okay, just saw that you are trolling... so hopefully a mod will get rid of this.

We all have our hearts and minds one way or another invested in these books and movies. So we all mind and should show the necessary respect.

Then would you be kind enough to take your own signature seriously and remember that it is Alan Lee and John Howe?

Unfortunately, Allan Howe died in 2000. Do they learn how to make movies in Congress?
Though, this Allan Howe looks like a nice chap. Apparently, he likes Germans, rugby, punk and supports Leeds United. Perhaps the Dwarves could be played by beefy Germans with mohawks?
This Allan Howe is an accountant, so he could help with the finances. I'm sure he likes coin purses just as much as me. His friend, Allan Howe, can also be the treasurer.
The landscape photography is sorted, with this Allan Howe.
This Allan Howe says he's energetic. That must mean he's fitter than PJ. Let's get him on board.
I like dogs. So does this Allan Howe.
This Allan Howe supports Chelsea. Oh dear, him and Allan Howe won't get on.
You can visit Allan Howe in Canada. Let's go!
Allan Howe is so thoughtful writing a piece on hair removal. He must've been thinking of Fili and Kili.
This Allan Howe is super clever. It's always a good idea to have some brains in an operation.
There's a lot of Allan Howes which like football!
I think you might need a therapist. Oh look! Allan Howe can do that for you.

but it would be very cool if someday Guillermo del Cameron did an all CGI version of 'Leaf by Bombadil' and Andy Cumberbatch did the mocap for the balrog who falls in love with a mortal and then accidentally fries her. (That part is so sad - I always cry a little bit.)

to include the willow tree's funeral at the end. That scene where they lay Harry's broken wand on the bonfire is SO important.

He never lets his own artistic vision get into the way of directing a film. I'm sure a lot of fans would prefer that.
