*cries tears of mirth* I just saw the Leaky headline "Dark Horizons: Hurley for Bellatrix?." The article, of course, describes how Elizabeth Hurley has been tapped for the role in the fifth HP movie (she's still considering it), but to my twisted fandom brain, the first Hurley my memory conjured was Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, the jovial, heavyset character on Lost. As Bellatrix. Hence, the whole "laughing until I cried" thing.

Anyway, there go my dreams of seeing Juliet Landau as Bella... Who was born in L.A., so it's not as if she could ever be a contender. Pah. Oh well, I'll still have my mental images! And also delusions. XD

(P.S. Elizabeth Hurley is far too pretty to have been in Azkaban for over a decade)
