You have no idea how much I would love Fillion to be Dresden. I just don't think he's lanky enough.

The irony of having a cgi'd dresden is outstanding.

Now that I think about it, Neil Flynn could also make a decent Artemis Bock.

I whole heartedly disagree with Alex Denisof he wears glasses and well reminds me more of butters

Butters? How on earth do you get that? And I'm going with Denisof because he's one of the people Jim suggested in either this thread or some other place. Not perfect, but he does kind of look the part. Michael weatherly might work too. I'll have to assess that further when I finally get my hands on season 1 of NCIS. My school's internet has gone down the drain since tuesday, so it's hard for me to watch any videos on the internet.

And besides, there are such things as contact lenses.

Oh, and have Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith as Third-Eye junkies in Storm Front.
My Dresden Files Purity Rating is 40%. It'd be higher if I could find the time to actually play the DFRPG.

The Merlin in my book (no pun intended) has always been Bill Nighy.

You know, that was another person I'd considered. I'm not sure how well he'd be able to pull off a beard, though.

And Olivia Wilde as Lash is something I will support. Although she might also work as Elaine.

I just read this passage in Changes and thought "Olivia Wilde"

"She was tall and beyond beautiful- like most of the Sidhe are.  Her skin was fair and flawless, her eyes enormous, slightly oblique orbs of emerald green."

Which of course describes Lea, Olivia.

Give her a red die job and I think she would be perfect for Lea.

Common, put some points on those ears, and make the hair red and it's Lea.

If they have I don't know of it.
Myself, I'm not really in favor of it.
I see Bob as being somewhat more intelligent sounding than that.
Tim Curry for Bob now that I could see.

Not gonna lie, when I look for people would be able to pull off Bob, I simply imagine them saying "And they have BOOBS!" Silly, but still...
