Future casts/Speaking of the Nimbus 2000

It's interesting to see the debates about casting for future movies
raising their heads (no, I did not say ugly) again. Personally, I
see Joseph Fiennes for Lupin and Daniel Day Lewis for Sirius Black,
but no one else seems to. ::sigh::
Perhaps we should construct a database on the website for folks to
put in their suggestions for various actors/roles. (And then we
wouldn't have so many posts about casting--like this one. <g>)
There would be a succinct record to compare with reality when the
future film casts are announced.

That's one of the funnier merchandising stories I've heard. It
reminded me of when I was shopping recently, and I picked up a poppy-
seed salad-dressing whose label proclaimed that it was good on fresh
peaches. I peered closer and saw a sticker on the back that
said, "Does not contain peaches." Do people actually need to be
told these things? Does anybody seriously think that a Nimbus 2000
will help them to fly? Don't they know that Muggles can't operate
these things? <g> Now if a witch or wizard were buying it...
