Glad to hear you're caught up, and good question.

My first choice would be Madeye Moody! I pictured him so much differently in the books than they portrayed him on screen. I think RN would have done him better justice. (And the filmmakers just got the eyeball thing so wrong; it looks like a child's toy eye-patch in the movie, nothing like it's described in the book.)

Alan Rickman is unalterably Snape in my mind; I can't even begin to picture anyone else in the role (and it's because of him that I ever got interested in Harry Potter at all) ... I also read that he was J.K. Rowling's first casting choice for the role, so maybe she had him in her mind too while writing the character!

Hagrid I could see him as; Dumbledore not so much. Lucius Malfoy? Well, I'm sure he could play the role without any trouble (he was similarly cold and calculating as Clive Riordan), but I just can't picture a pale, blond, long-haired Robert Newton!
