Agreed. :-)

I hope Cuaron tells Rickman (though, I love him as an actor) to tone 
down the campiness and amp up the creep factor...

The reason his character works so well in the books is that he seems 
so slimy, so hateful, and we don't know the whole story behind why. 
That's intriguing...

In the films he just comes off, to me, as a generally strict teacher 
who favors his house...

Plus, I think his "evil energy" must match Sirius'...Otherwise the 
conflict won't be interesting.
