Actually, if a mere List Elf may humbly speak in the presence of 
a bona fide, automatic-transmission Moderator:

MOVIE: My choice of devilishly handsome hunk to play Sirius should go 
on OT-Chatter only.  Likewise MOVIE: Why Gabriel Byrne does not 
qualify as a devilishly handsome hunk, MOVIE: Robin Williams rumored 
to be playing the Hungarian Horntail, and MOVIE: Casting nightmare 
that caused me to wake up sweating.  In other words, speculative 
casting posts are strictly OT.  Join OT-Chatter and speculate to your 
hearts' content!  (And also learn the solution to the riddle of the 
ages:  "What the &*^$# is spotted dick?"  Answer: 42.)
