I do, but there are others who could do Harry too, and look a little better as him. xD


Maybe, but they weren't mentioned in this poll! lol

Hey, don't look at me. The minute y'all started talking about James Marsters, you brought up my love for him again. My butt is firmly planted in the James for Harry base camp now.

Ok, I'll join your team. I love James too, but he'll have to gruff up a bit to really play Harry. How tall is he anyway?

THAT is the only problem. James is a very average 5'11" (or somewhere in that margin. There's about a million different variations from people on his height.) as opposed to Harry's rather freakish 6'7"-6'8"-ishness. But, they can make tall people look like midgets, and they can freaking age Brad Pitt backwards with the power of CGI crap, so, that wouldn't be a problem. Besides, like most everyone who has listened to the audiobooks, James is the voice in my head when I think of Harry :)

Oh my god, I needs must see this picture right the hell now. See, now you've done it, lol.

I'll see what I can do.  I'm not sure I have it on disc, next have to find it, and then will probably have to get it scanned.
It'll take awhile.

He's hot, but not *that* hot. he's more.... rugged hot. he's... not.. 'pretty', like thomas.

and frankly, I don't see him pulling it off. >.<

Ahh, thank you Shecky. Is he still holding to that? It was three years ago, and a lot can change in three years.

I haven't heard him say word one about it recently. But remember, this is PERFECT casting, so we can go back in time, grab Denisof pre-illness and bring him back to the future for perfect filming. :D

I think this thread is rapidly descending out of PG-13.   ;D

I didn't know that Denisof had been ill, Shecky.  Good morning, by the way.  What happened??

G'mornin'. Not precisely sure what happened; I just remember reading something about some neurological deal, IIRC.

*edit* Bell's palsy (according to Wikipedia):

Quote
According to the DVD release of Angel's Season Five, three weeks before the filming of the season premiere Denisof was stricken with Bell's palsy, from which he later recovered. Due to the paralysis of the left side of his face, scenes were structured as to not showcase the side effects.

Seems he's better now; good for him.

Oh.  Pierce Brosnan had that for awhile too. 
Glad to hear that he's better.  I liked his character a lot, like him too.  I think I'm a sucker for Brits to tell the truth.  At least some Brits.
