Well, to put aside casting Vlad's realm, I did notice that as I was
re-reading _To Reign In Hell_ last week that about halfway through I
realized Mephistopheles was forming fully in my mind as Ed Wasser.

I was reading a conversation in an anime newsgroup in which they were
debating who they would cast in a live action version of some cartoon that I
had never heard of before.  This has absolutely nothing to do this group but
it did get me to think in a vein that I hadn't explored myself.  It might
have been talked about already but who would you cast for a movie of the
Vlad Taltos series?

This is a scary topic because I couldn't see hollywood EVER doing justice to
such a movie but as an excercise of speculation. . . Well it is good to
dream or Loiosh getting his big break on the silver screen. :P

Also, with the discussion of the Sethra "picture" it begs the question. . .
how could anyone have enough presence for play the Enchantress of Dzur
Mountain;  The Wield of the great weapon, Iceflame;  The debater of the
great Hissy-Cow?!?

Just food for thought...  I hope it doesn't erupt into an "How could you
ever think that!" sort of thing.
