*sobbing tears of saddness*

[serafina20]

We already knew that the Lupin cast was not the Lupin we wanted. While my sister has never specified an actor for him, I've known from the beginning that my Lupin was Jeremy Irons.

On hearing the casting news, I was saddened. However, as I love Gary Oldman with the firey passion of a thousand suns, I tried to comfort myself that, even though I'm a Remus girl, I'd be fine.

But, on watching Timeline and cringing every time Thewlin comes on screen, my sister and I sob tears of dejection. And saddness. And sorrow. And pain.

*sniff*

God Yes! That's exactly what I said.

The few people I've told that look at me like I'm on crack, but the image just fits for me. Yay for like minds!!

Now, see, I'm not happy any way it works out.

My Lupin hops back and forth between Hugh Grant and Tom Hulce (it was always TH until the rumor of HG went around).

My Sirius? An actor named John Challis, as he appeared in an old Doctor Who episode from, oh, 30 years ago now (I looked it up -- 28 years ago). I'm looking for a still of him from that ep, and I can't find one. Sigh.

I've never had a Sirius. He's always just been some image my brain conjured up and I was interested to see who they cast. Gary Oldman isn't Sirius to me, but as no one save Jason Issacs and maybe Alan Rickman's voice are really "my" characters, I almsot dont' care who's cast as anyone as long as I enjoy them on some level. So far, I'm sensing I"m not going to be able to enjoy Thewlin.
