Casting: Heath Ledger-Diggory

Hmmm... I don't really see it.  Cedric is a "pretty boy" and I just 
would never ever use that phrase to describe Heath.

Funny, b'c that's (rough-and-tough maculinity) is how I see Heath 
Ledger.  He is more built and has a tough, wide face.  When I think 
of Cedric, I see someone lean, tall, handsome, with a cute, soft 
face.  Hmm... I'm trying to think of someone that fits this.  I'd 
almost say Leo DiCaprio if he was taller.  But he definitely has the 
cute-boy face and the leanness.  Hmmm... who else?  (Mind you, not 
that I'm suggesting these people... but just trying to come up with 
known people that fit that description).... or Ryan Phillipe.  He's 
definitely pretty-boy.  Fairly tall and lean too.

Who knows.. haha... maybe Steven Speilburg will take over and he can 
cast Haley Joel Osment as Cedric, as he's be older by then.  Haha.

Hmm.. see I think that in his time he probably was a very handsome 
fellow.  More on the sexy side, I'd think.  It's only Azkaban that's 
harrowed him.  I mean.. think what he's been through.  Accused of 
betraying his best friend (who just died and so he must be suffering 
that!) and being accused of being a death eater (when he probably 
despised DEs), and topping it all off is spending YEARS in Azkaban.  
It's way worse than Shawshank Redemption and look what that did to 
him!  :)  Anyway, this is all to say, that I think Sirius is 
probably, underneath all the grime and malnutrition, is probably a 
really goodlooking guy.
