  What I don't get is how Gary Oldman's name could be before many of 
the others in the movie that are actually IN the movie for more than a 
couple minutes.  I can't remember where his name was in the credits 
right off hand, but there were others listed after him that had much 
bigger parts.  How do they do the credits?  I know that Daniel, Rupert, 
and Emma get first digs at the beginning of the credits, but after that?

Other than the trio... names are generally listed alphabetically, and 
then in groups.  In the cast listed late in the credits, where it lists 
every performer for every part, it is usually in order that they appear 
in the film.
