I just finished reading Good Omens (in a word: AHAHAHAHA!! Also: awesome!) and... if ever this gets made into a movie, which is interesting to contemplate, SURELY they should cast Mark Sheppard as Crowley, right? I cannot even imaging anyone else in the role.
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Given that Mark Sheppard just finished playing a demon named Crowley (well, maybe not finished, but he's had a good run so far), I'm actually mostly hoping they find someone else.

Michael Caine would make a great Crowley.

Huh. I did not know that. Supernatural, I suppose. (It's too bad, because he really is perfect for this character. I could totally hear Sheppard's voice in the dialog throughout the book. Plus that face in the ubiquitous shades, of course.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I want Anthony Stewart Head for Aziraphale. Or Ian McKellan.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I see Crowley as more sinuous and lanky than Sheppard, but I don't know who that would be.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
My dream cast for Good Omens has been Fry and Laurie since I read it.

Fry & Laurie? yeah, much better than my suggestion of Caine.

Fry - Crowley and Laurie - Aziraphale? I could just about see it working either way...
