Hey, you've got some great ideas here!  Incidentally, I've been working on a piece of holiday fanfiction that will heavily borrow from *some* of your theories, and I was wondering if you'd mind before I posted it?  Just to be safe ;)

Having access to the books, I'm having fun assembling a few characters for personal use... those being an American Irish kinetomancer, Southern-raised, necromancer-hating cowboy cop, and maybe a few others :)

DFRPG / So Has Anyone Considered... (DM-on spoilers)

...a Ghost Rider-like character?  I think that someone, or something, hijacking a Denarian or being in a similar situation to Harry with Lasciel's shadow and using Hellfire for their own motives would be pretty awesome.  Or, heck, even using some Sponsored Magic (maybe Summer Fire?) to accomplish this would work.

I don't have either of the books, so I can't stat a character like this.  Just thought that it was an interesting idea to bring to the community's notice :)

Judgemental, much? :D Seriously though.  I can't imagine another actor portraying him.

On a serious note, Morgan Freeman will /always/ be Uriel to me, regardless of his shapeshifting powers :P

Why not Will Ferrell?  He's got the humour down, and showed that he can carry a staff in Land of the Lost.  He even rode a T-Rex, though I can't find pictures of it!

Eh.  He's a decent actor, but doesn't scream Morgan to me - too much grey and not enough brown in his hair :)

You know, Reeves does have the face that I've always pictured for Martin.

Urgh.  Depp is just annoying nowadays; he's stretching himself far too thin for my tastes.

Also - I did a short screenplay for how a theatrical trailer (2-3 minutes, I think) would play out, adapting Jim's short story, Vignette.  Here's a link:  I'd appreciate your comments on it!

I concur.

I meant that more as the offhand references already in the later books ("That business last spring") would be supplemented with a little more nods in that direction, and such.  Nothing so overt as a flashback - doing such may detract from the story.

Dude, just tell me what you want and I'll help :)

Are you still gonna continue the After The Funeral fic? I need something to tide me over until Aftermath, and it was doing a real good job of that!

Yeah, I'm going to continue Funeral (when not working on my novel) gradually between now and Ghost Story.  I'm excited to see the similarities between the two :)

As for the script, I'm thinking of doing things a bit 'out of order' - my ideal Dresden Files series would skip around in the order of the case files, to offer as comprehensive a look at the supernatural world as possible while highlighting the trials and tribulations of Harry and friends.  I'd probably skip over Storm Front, as, while a GREAT introductory novel, I don't think that it's got enough of a "hook" to it to succeed financially on a large scale.  I think that going straight into Fool Moon and working from there would be a better option, leaving the hints and jabs towards Storm Front as a sort of "Noodle Incident" to pique the viewer's interest for when it is eventually made (later in the series, as a prologue to the rest of the stories).

To that end, I aim to brush up on scriptwriting and the like in the near future before beginning work on a fan's version of it :) I've got some great ideas for a film version of "Fool Moon", and if anyone wants to discuss further outside of this Topic, feel free to drop me a PM.

So I'm considering writing a "fan's script" of several DF casebooks, with tentative actors, producers, musical scorers, etc etc for each and posting them in the fanfiction section of the site.  Would anyone be against that, or like to collaborate? :P

I think that Javier Bardem could play a great Grevane.
