Actors they should've goten for the Harry Potter Films.

Maggie Smith-good, Richard Harris-very god, but dead

As odd as this may sound, I think they could have gotten Liam Neeson to play Sirius. At the beginning of Les Mis. (the movie) he has a very Sirius-ish look about him, and he's such a talented actor...he could've done it, and well if I do say so.

In the books Sirius was described as being quite Handsome.
Me and my friend found a picture of Orlando Bloom and he should have played Sirius if they added a bit of make up he would have been perfect lol. It was only this one picture though and it didn't really look like him but it was Sirius. lol

The third movie could be a total wreck but in the very last scene for no reason Orlando Bloom could be possing and everyone(at least girls) would say that it was the best movie in the world.

Kenneth Branagh was good for Professor (oops, memory lapse)

How about Rita Skeeter, when she comes into it?

I think that Rita Skeeter is Christina Richie to a T, but then again, that's just me

Finrod Felagund, I am in awe at your perfect casting for Sirius. That hadn't even occured to me.

If anyone has ever seen Babylon 5 then they would understand what i would meen if i said the guy that plays Marcus, but that typecasting and not really fair.

If you had ever seen the BBC's filming of Pride and Predjudice then you would have seen Crispin Bonham-Carter, he was suggested for Remus.

I never thought of that... It would have been great!

For Moody they could always get John Rhys Davies...since they would have to use heavy make up anyways, and he has a very deep sonorous, raspy sort of "Moody-ish" type voice.


Ludo Bagman could be an Orlando Bloom...if Bloom was a little older.

The Fat lady was in the first movie already, when Percy took the first years up to the common room the first time.

What would you guys think of Ewan McGregor as Prof. Lupin? I dunno, he just seems how I pictured the character in my mind.

The guy they picked, I've only seen one picture, but he doesn't look at all how I pictured him.

This hadn't occured to me! He might be slightly too young for the role, and they'd have to work to make him look tired and sickly... but I think he would work well otherwise.
