Lupin. Personally I've only seen Thewlis once and he played a serial 

killer... so that didn't quite recommend him to me as Lupin ;-) Some 

of us also had our hearts <sigh> set on Ralph Fiennes ...who is good-

looking in a very warm sort of way (and those eyes!!). Well, Thewlis 

got the nod over Fiennes for whatever reason so I'm sure I"ll grow to 

love him <g>.  >>

Of course, Ralph  Fiennes just played a rather gruesome serial killer in Red 
Dragon.        I didn't see it, but the clips I did see were scary as hell - 
he did make a convincing psycho ;-)

As for the talk about Sirius and Oldman - does JKR give a height 
approximation for Sirius in the book? I can't recall now and don't have the 
book in front of me. 

Just as a fun fact, I happened to catch the last part of an old Highlander 
episode last night and Jason Isaacs was a guest star - playing a bad guy of 
course ;-)
