Yes, according to GoF, Bagman was a Beater for the Wimbourne Wasps.  How
about putting Eric Idle in that role?  

Someone requested that we find a role for Helena Bonham Carter in one of
the future movies.  How about casting her as Madam Rosmerta, landlady of
the Three Broomsticks?  PoA describes her as a pretty woman.

I think Ralph Fiennes is a good choice for Lupin, but I would personally
love to see that role bestowed on one of my own British favorites -- Cary
Elwes.  (Unlike other Robin Hoods, he can speak with an English accent.) 
Cornelius Fudge is a harder one for me to make a decision about, because
all I get in my head is the voice assigned to him by audiobook reader Jim
Dale, which has a crispness about it and also a slight whine.  I can't
think of anyone who fits that bill.

As for Sirius Black -- how about the noteworthy Jeremy Irons?  [He was
the voice of Scar in "The Lion King."]  He might also be good as Fudge,
come to think of it.  Or maybe Barty Crouch, Sr.

Can anybody think of a way we can get Sean Connery into these films?  =D 
I'm not holding out much hope, but he's always fun to look at...
