As a large number of my journal's visitors are or will soon be on summer vacation, I thought I'd post a link I've been sitting on for a few months.
Oswald on the Web
It's basically a Discworld casting site, where you can nominate certain actors for certain roles and then vote on the nominees. An excellent way to fritter away a couple of hours. (They're also desperately in need of people who have a broader perspective of Movieland and who won't just nominate Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman for everything.)

Date: 2006-06-15 08:19 pm (UTC)Marvelous time waster- and 2006 is for nominating "Going Postal!" The only thing is the actors whom I would choose are either not the right age for the roles, too Texan, too Icelandic or just not really that well known to have an IMDB listing. And, yes, Stephen Briggs would be grand as Lord Vetinari!
My actual best wish would be for them to choose relatively unknown actors who match the role the best. Certain characters like Sam Vimes and The Patrician and Granny Weatherwax are such icons that it seems hard for me to imagine people for the role (esxcept Stephen Briggs. Oh, and Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman- JOKING!
