Oh yeah, that would work nicely...

I would agree except that Patrick isn't tall enough. Give him lifters or
stilt shoes...yeah, it'd be neat.

OH God NO!!! Please, I beg you...I got into this conversation with someone
else here in Lafayette a few years back...please no...

How about, yeah this will sound strange, John Travolta...he's actually
starting to come into his own...and he's a big name now as well.

Possibly, but I somehow think that Jody Foster would actually do it better,
or perhaps Melissa Gilbert (did you catch her as the returned from the dead
Wife of Sheridan on B5?)

Though a nice idea...I don't think so. See below...how about...

> Harlequin: I have no idea

How about the red-headed guy from Pulp Fiction and Prophecy (the angel
Simon). Or Simon's evil counterpart... (Gabriel in Prophecy) Christopher
Walken (he's got an honestly twisted sense of humor in real life)

Oh brother...

NO!!! He'd be a far better Ehran...Sean Laverty could be Mel Gibson...

Yeah, how about...

Alachia (Queen Dike of the Universe)...Uma Thurman (loved that Gorilla
drop-the-fur-suit in Batman & Robin)

Arleesh (Feathered Serpent of Bottling Fame)...Whitney Houston (slimmer
version, for the looks)

Prince Surehand (the lost kid on the block) ... David Duchovny (of X-Files
Fame)

I'm too tired to think of others...
