I just wondered why you thought Oldman is just in it for the money. 
Is it something he said in an interview?  I just saw the movie again
yesterday (had to take my friend before it left the theaters).  I
really liked Oldman in the movie.  Thewlis was wonderful too.  When I
first saw him I thought "that's not how I imagined Lupin", but once he
started acting he was completely Lupin.  I really liked the scenes
with he and Harry.
