believe he can really bring the Lupin we all know to life in a truly 
amazing way.

I'm so glad to hear that as far as talent goes, Thewlis is a good 
choice.  I've scene a number of sites and forums where Oldman fans 
worked to convince Oldman-as-Sirius-Skeptics that he is a good 
choice.  I'm a supporter of the Oldman casting decision, I think he 
will be wonderful(not to say that I would have been opposed to see 
Mortensen as Sirius.)  I've kind of been hoping that people could 
sell me on Thewlis in the same way.  Although no one has posted links 
to great pictures where Thewlis looks like a perfect Lupin the same 
way that people did with Mr. Oldman, I really am pleased to hear that 
people think he will play the part well.  I will try to check out 
some of his films over he next year.  Thanks!
