Sigh. I think Gary Oldman as Sirius would be the first casting of a main character that I just *can't* reconcile with The-Picture-In-My-Head. I mean, I even accustomed myself to Emma Watson.

The problem is that for most characters I just use my imagination. But for sometime now, I haven't been able to think of Sirius as anyone other than a younger Timothy Dalton.

Sigh. I suppose they know what they're doing. I just always pictured Sirius as strong-featured and bright-eyed...a much more expressive and...broader...face than Oldman's. You know? He's a passionate man.Needs larger shoulders and hands than Oldman's, too.

Plus, Oldman isn't anything like "dead sexy."

I personally think they should have used an up-and-coming actor or something totally new for Sirius and Lupin's part.  Then again I'm American and we don't have a many British actors here for me to choose from.  But I know who Gary Oldman is and I've never been taken away by his performances.

 

Greicy, whose sister thinks that Sean Connery should have been Dumbledore! ;-)
