I have faith in their casting because almost all of the moves have been how I pictured the character looking like! I'm glad that the Dursleys and the dementor scene will be in the movie!

Yes! The Dursley's are returning to the 5th movie which is excellent because I think they are great actors and characters in both the books and the movies!

That's pretty much the way I expected Amelia Bones to look, does it mention in the books that she has red hair? I've always imagined her to have red hair, not that awful carroty pale skin and freckles kind of redhead, but a really nice red.

I think Sian Thomas is going to be a wonderful addition to the case. If you go on the IMDB you see that she has a wonderful line of credits to her name.

I didn't really have a specific look built up in my mind for Amelia Bones, but she seems like a great choice for the character.

Well, that's good news for the Snape's Worst Memory scene-- if they casted Wormtail they have to cast a Remus and Sirius. But the way it looks right now, the movie will have no Sirius... when will Gary Oldman be officially casted?

PowerGranger says:
Yeah, I am extremely pleased to see the Dursleys are back. The time Harry spends at Privet Drive is so important to setting up the "surly Harry" mood of things for the rest of the story, as well as his annoyance with being in the dark about Voldemort while the Order "spies" on him.
It doesn't really seem like any of the minor characters has been cut yet, does it?
