If Ewan McGregor can't do Lupin, I'd like to see the part go to 
Samuel West.  (for pics, go to 
http://members.aol.com/c3po15/SamuelWestPage/album/pics.html) Sam's 
been in lots of quality Brittish cinema (notably Hornblower and the 
BBC's Narnia series).  I also think that the age difference between 
West & Rickman would be less noticable.

I think that Colin Firth would make a better Sirius Black than Lupin, 
but I guess I'm alone on that.

And it's a bit premature, but I'd like to see Denis Lawson (Wedge 
Antilles in Star Wars - and Ewan's uncle) as Mad-Eye Moody!  Alan 
Rickman and Denis Lawson in the same movie?  I'm getting quivery just 
thinking about it!
