The one things that always comes to my mind when I think of Arthur 
Weasley is a cross between Ariel/Scuttle in Disney's The Little 
Mermaid. I always think of Ariel's room filled with the human trinkets 
whenever Arthur talks about his collection of Muggle goods. Their 
interest in humans/muggals is very similar to me. Now, I'm  not sure 
about a female mermaid playing a male wizzard, but this is fantasy, 
right??

I also always think of Jayne Meadows as The Queen of Hearts in my 
favorite 1985 TV version of Alice in Wonerland for Umbridge. The queen 
may be a bit too evil up front with her constant shouting of "Off with 
their heads!" (no sugary cover-up) but when she invites Alice to play 
croquet ever so sweetly, it is very Umbridge. The way she sounds so 
sweet, but could really snap on you at any moment.

I also think that Hallee Hirsh as Daley in the "Flight 19 Down" TV show 
would make a good Hermonie. I think she has the look described in the 
books. Also Daley on the show has a similar personality to Hemonie's. 
Vey know-it-all, but also thoughtfull at times. I doubt many of you 
have seen this show, so you might have to take my word on that.

That's all I have.

Hoping it's not too late for this because I thought it was fun - and 
have been out of town :)
