Lucy was a brunette in the BBC miniseries, which is the visual I think most people have seared into their brains.
Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I've imagined Lucy being a brunette for forever. So either I have very bad attention-paying skills, she was a brunette in the book, or it was never mentioned.
Or maybe you had some subconscious brunette!Lucy bleeding over from Peanuts.
I loved it too. Glad that my Tumnus love was not roused to ire by the movie Tumnus, who was as charming and fey and daffy as I hoped he would be.
I've decided that the girl who plays Natalie ini Love, Actually needs to play Tonks.
Have they picked a Tonks yet?

Oh, that would be a good match, maybe. But then, I've never gotten a firm grasp on Tonks' look - is she supposed to be really tall or something? I get that impression, but maybe that's because "clumsy" means "lanky" in my mind.
She morphs - she has no real look. She can look how she wants.
She's a good match for the potential "blahness" that is Tonks's natural state, but that picture makes me think she can also do the vivaciousness that is Pink Tonks. Unfortunately, she's about ten years too old for book Tonks, but since actors' ages don't really count for the HP films (see, Alan Rickman), maybe they won't pay so much attention to that.

Am I crazy for thinking Keira could do it? I'm probably crazy, but I love her so much I want her in everything.
Edit: It's too bad Amber Tamblyn is too young. She could do the clumsy bit, but she still looks high school age. I want her in everything too, though.
Edit 2: Of course, Amber is way not-British, too. I guess I should keep my thoughts in the realm of the sane, huh?
