Now that's casting that makes better sense to me (and I agree, no "fangal 
pitterpat" involved -- they just suit the physical type of the characters the 
way I envisioned them when reading the books).  I'm not that familiar with 
Thewlis work, but Oldman could do Remus standing on his head.  And Daniel Day 
Lewis would be a terrific Sirius.  Steve Buscemi is American (from New York 
City, he was a firefighter there, worked at the World Trade Center disaster 
as a volunteer with his unit, although he is no longer an active 
firefighter), so he's automatically disqualified unless they come up with an 
American character -- although he could probably do a good "Mad-Eye" with his 
big googly eyes!  Eek!
