This is what happens when sick people try to pull an all-nighter

My sister and I tried to watch the BBC Sherlock and simply failed. We couldn't even make it to the end. Ended up having a really good discussion about fantasy casting a Temeraire movie while it played on in the background. (She favours Henry Cavill for Lawrence, because apparently he's actually read Temeraire? While I maintain Lawrence needs to be someone a little less generically very handsome and with really, really good comedic chops, as Lawrence's perennial straight-man to the whole universe is one of the things that really make the books for me.)

So, you know, a productive night.

Hmm, I agree that Cavill would be a bit too handsome - Lawrence needs to look as though he's been knocked around a bit (plus he's what, mid-thirties at the youngest?). My immediate thought was Paul Bettany (isn't Lawrence blonde?) but he might be a little old. Maybe Eddie Redmayne in a few years?

Ooh, Eddie Redmayne could work, thought he does look a little boyish. Well, it's not like this is getting made tomorrow...
