I'd want a natural redhead playing you, just saying; ...but I mean, he is blond. If they dyed his hair the proper red/strawberry blond, I would be behind that casting choice in a heartbeat.

This is very true--but I've noticed lately that the movie industry seems less and less inclined to pay attention to appearances. I mean, all the versions of Dorian Gray on film ever have been dark-haired, and this is not keeping with the dichotomy Oscar wished to express, i.e. the blond-haired cherubic Dorian being corrupted and wicked. So I am concerned about details like this getting overlooked.

Don't get me started on the changes they make to perfectly good stories in an attempt to make them more interesting to mainstream moviegoers.

I made a whole post dedicated to my feelings about the Sherlock Holmes movie.

I love his voice. So much. And nobody can convince me that Music Meister isn't just Earth-3 1/2 me.
