Griff, who is in the third picture?

Sorry, I was not clear. Yes, I thought he was Hugh Jackman, but what character are you proposing him to play? Michael?

Yes, Michael. I've always thought he's got the size for him.  Not to mention he can do a nice beard.

All right, I can see him.
And your signature picture is wonderful!

The window decal one?  It's old, and saw it was I was posting new pics to PB.  Decided to break out some of the old stuff.

And of course, everyone's Thomas from a while back.  I know not everyone liked him, but JB dropped his name once.

He is Thomas. I can't see anyone else. He is the only one I am totally convinced. The rest, Charlize Theron is still my favorite Mab/Titania.

And yes, the window one. It's great, specially Molly's drawing.

Kristen Bell is just about getting to the perfect age to play Murphy. Oh damn, now I'll never picture anyone other than Kristen Bell as Murphy. This could do some serious damage to my future reading that results in endless giggle fits.

And just because I'm in a Buffy mood...

I think Alexis Denisof, using his "faint British accent", could be a really creepy Nicodemus:


And if not Nic, maybe Kincaid. Or somebody. Because Alexis Denisof is awesome.

Anthony Stewart Head would make an awesome, well, anybody really, but I think he'd be quite good for Vadderung or Langtry.

A couple of characters that I think I've got spot on. I'm on my phone so I can't post pics, but goggle them if you aren't familiar with them.

Mac - Michael Chiklis
Sanya - Djimon Hounsou
Thomas - Ben Barnes
Justine - Amanda Seyfried
Lara - Kate Beckensale
Father Forthill - Hector Elizondo
Lea - Stana Katic
Butters - TJ Thyne
Charity - Julie Benz
Ramirez - John Huertas
Marva - HBC
Bianca - Morena Baccarin

Witcha on Kristen Bell as Murphy.  Perfect.  Maybe a little "aging" makeup, but not much.

But Kris Kristofferson is first pick for Vadderung.  Jeff Bridges second.

Butters - TJ Thyne

Now THAT would be a great choice!

She's almost mid-30's, which would make her perfect for Murphy at the beginning of the series (especially considering everyone always plays a couple years younger on TV/film).

I was stuck on DJ Squalls for Butters for the longest time.  But given the recent developments with Butters, I could see TJ Thyne beings a pretty good step up for him.

I posted this in the spoiler casting thread, but the more I think about it, the more I love it.

Murph:

And my husband adds, if you're going to cast her as Murph, your Harry has already been chosen.

I would be totally for it except for the obvious "It's been Done" objection.  The same reason, in fact, that I do NOT want Sarah Michelle Geller as Murphy.
