I think I like her for Andi.

Maybe, but I like her enough to want her to have a more prominent role.

Nope, sorry, still not working for me.

I'm in the Bomer club too, but that might be because I like Chuck and White Collar.  Being a guy, I can't tell you if Bomer makes them melt, but my wife assures me he does.

Also? Lost Greek God of Boflex.

That looks shopped.  You can't convince me that's not shopped.

Tell me this does not SCREAM Harry and Thomas.

I'm not feeling it there.   Denisof looks doofy there, and Marsters doesn't look anything like Thomas to me, and this is coming from a guy who was casting the blond Green Arrow as Thomas.

I'm a fan of Klodi for Leah, but as for acting ability and looks, has anyone mentioned Sara Rafferty, recently of 'Suits' on USA?

On the show, she's very good at switching mood and personality at the drop of a hat.  I could see her playing sweet/crazy very well, and she has the looks.

DF Reference Collection / Re: Ghost Story & Aftermath spoilers: Anyone notice... Toto?

Or maybe Toto is a girl dog, and likes Will, and doesn't like Marci.  If you catch my meaning.

Hmmm, I disagree. I'd see her more as Deirdre; she looks kind of overly lean, cruel, and dangerous.

I would agree to that.  But she's a Euorpean model, and my original idea was to have all the Fae cast with Eastern Europeans, a.k.a. old world with distinct accents.

Less than brief pause as I 'ralph up' my dinner.
Urgh - I hope you're joking.  That's just wrong and I suspect she
may have had extra help in getting that body.
(I'm not fond of male bodybuilders either for that matter.  They, I'm sorry if I offend, look freakish.)
I prefer the kind of body you get on a swimmer.

How about this one?

She looks more Nordic but this is gonna sound odd - too modelesque.
Gard is a descendant of Beowolf - I want to see a warrior who happens to be very striking - I'm afraid, for me, she isn't it.  Oddly enough - Jeri Ryan would be better Gard for me.

I thought of her as Gard too, but I thought she would make a fitting opposite to Tricia Helfer as Mab.

Here's your Nordic Warrior Princess, then  ;D

Some I agree with - some I don't.
The one for Gard - no - she needs to look Nordic and that lady neither looks Nordic nor capable of wielding a battle ax.  Jeri Ryan for Titania - good.  And I love Judi Dench and Helen Mirren as the Mothers.
Kristen Bell - no not as Murphy, sorry.  And the lady for Susan - no, she's too young looking - Susan is a woman.

I always pictured Susan as younger than Harry in the early books, which would put her in her early to mid twenties.  And then when she was bitten, she stopped aging.  Sofia Pernas is 22, so she'd be around the right age for Susan in that scenario.  But I don't know when Susan was born, or how old she was supposed to be.

Kristen Bell in that picture, to me, looks like Murphy, but not anywhere else.  And Izabella Scorupco may not be a Nordic Amazon, but she's actually from Poland and 5'8".  And she was Bond girl, so <3.  In the past I said a young Famke Janssen as Leah, since she's could pull off the red-headed crazy; that would be two Bond girls, plus Dench.

How about this pic of Izabella?  Any better?

pule (pyool) - to whine or wimper.

Also, I think someone early in the thread said mavin is a word for master, but I think it's maven - one who is experienced or knowledgeable, and expert.

Since I have this link handy from posting it in another thread, I'll toss it in here.  Spencer Locke for Molly. 

My problem with casting is that all my folks would have been the perfect age for a series starting 5 or 6 years ago, rather than now.

I just realized what your sig was and squeaked.

Most people got it, but since not everyone was, I updated it to make it a little easier.  Now the fun is in figuring out each one...  Not too hard...

Uuu, cool sig. I like the Thomas choice, Green Arrow from Smalville :)

Due to silent but deadly protest, I changed the Thomas in the new sig.  I always pictured Thomas as a blonde for some reason like Justin Hartley from Smallville, but people kept telling me I did it wrong.  So in the new sig, it's Matt Bomer from Chuck/White Collar, who the ladies have generally said is just as acceptable.

you know i hadnt thought of that but mark walberg as kincaid would be awesome

See, I always thought of Kincaid as more of a Colin Farrell-type rather than a Walberg-type.  I pictured more bad boy, dark and lean, rather than gym workout muscles.

Thanks.  I checked the settings, and it wasn't private, but I didn't know there were different link options.  I tried posting the direct link as opposed to the email/IM link, and it worked.  Thanks!
