Your comment about transforming Shakespeare amused me a little because of the context here about Snape/Rickman. I read an interview once with Rickman where he was asked how Hamlet could "refreshed" and his response was simply "When did it get old?"
Rickman has suddenly shot to the top of my good guys'n'gals list. I have a blazing hatred for the complex of idiotic assumptions behind the interviewer's question, but Rickman dealt with it with such class that there is nothing more to be said.
