Hi,
Now it's my turn to say I think Caius Marcius misunderstood me!
I stated that the star-studded movie version of "Murder On The Orient
Express" was so far off the mark from the mental pictures I drew from the
book, but I wouldn't allow that to change my perception.
I just don't want folks to think that's the one and only image of the JKR
characters. I still hope to enjoy the movie, even if the cast doesn't
conform to my imagination. I like Alan Rickman's body of work as an actor,
but must admit my first impression was "too old" for Snape. We'll see.
I also meant that the upcoming movie is one of the only HP visual references
to date--excluding the book illustrations--if you see any
tapestries/sculptures of HP characters, let me know! I don't even want to
get into the stuffed animal/doll arena--McDonald's/Burger King/mass
merchandisers will inundate us.
Our own imaginations will always provide the clearest picture!
Dane, Ravenclaw
