If two men are are perceived as affectionate it retroactively ruins your childhood?

/Cain & Able?
//would that count as bromance?

Keep digging Watson.

WTF is this shiat? Holmes + Watson + explosions + ass kicking + more explosions + slow-motion ass-kicking explosions?fark you, hollywood, and all your shiatty "blockbusters".

Why does it look like an action movie? why why why why why why why why?

/Nero Wolfe FTW

FTFA: "if you haven't already seen "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang", do yourself a favor and go rent that movie tonight"

I'm going to have to second that. It may be the most underrated and underappreciated comedy crime caper of the last decade.

Grat, the Ghye agenda out to ruin yet another movie or in this case what looks like a poor movie even worse.


/Holmes Purist.

So, "juuuust the right amount" = none. Glad you pointed this out, subby.

/ this should not be an action movie
// but should have Robert Downey

How many different takes and ripoffs of Sherlock have there been? Seriously guys I wouldn't get worked up about this. I mean are you gonna get upset about the 3D cartoon version of Scrooge?

He never intended animation!!!

Boritom: Yeah, because two heterosexual males could never work together in any situation. They're all gay, right?

At least three of your pairings involve animals, and one's a pair of women. That undercuts your point a little.

I consider myself a Holmes purist as well, and this movie doesn't appeal to me at all.
Dig up Jeremy Brett.

Oh yeah, you got to have the homo-eroticism if you want to solve the mystery.

Sherlock Holmes goes Wild Wild West, from the look of it. In tone, and a bit in style, if not a direct western.

/Since when was Holmes in Fight Club?

Next up: Jet Li as Charlie Chan!

You forgot House and Wilson.

Which considering the previous ones implying that he loves his women especially with him as a topping, would probably indicate he's bi

Actually, in films, most of the time, despite the homoesque scenario, the screenplay will usually have some mention of a normal heterosexual component to one or both of the male leads.

Look out for it next time. It happens time and time again. Usually, one is divorced. Or we see some split second interaction, like some girl leaving the room, or signs that a female was in the bed the night before. It's a Hollywood standard.

I don't care what any of you say. I'm gonna go watch it opening night. Although the comparison to Wild Wild West is somewhat disheartening.

I'm hoping the producers are afraid no one will go see a mystery movie, and so are putting out a slightly deceptive "ACTION ACTION ACTION COMEDY!" trailer to get butts in the seats.

I like the actors, but this movie looks too goddamn stupid to even bother with. I cringed the first time I saw the preview in theaters.

You're childhood is "pooped" on because an anonymous person on a message board made a joke in their headline?

I haven't read a whole lot of Holmes stories, but I don't recall any occasion when Holmes beat up anyone.

Was he a brutish, uncivilized brawler in the stories that I missed? Or did they just completely change the character for the sake of being more like House?

Basil Rathbone.

Never mind that Doyle wrote the novels at a time when professors were buggering the shiat out of their students - nope, no homoeroticism there...

Boritom:

Gotta be honest. I'm pretty sure Batman molested Robin as a young boy.
