> I got really excited when I read that he said he was thinking of 
other parts available in future Harry Potter films (something like 
that) and the first thing I thought of was Mad-Eye Moody.  I think he 
would be great for that.  He could do it so well.  He'd be almost, 
well, wasted on Dumbledore.  Dumbledore is a very important 
character, of course, but unless they do a drastic character switch 
he's been pretty much established as a grandfatherly figure in the 
films.

Now me:

What about for Barty Crouch Sr.?  That would definitely be a change 
from Gandalf and unless Barty Sr's ghost is going to show up in later 
books he would only have to commit to one film (maybe two if GoF is 
done in two parts as has been rumored)
