Off Topic: New Movie Trailer

Its not very different, just with a couple new snippets woven into the beginning and a spiffy new ending that is almost enough to restore my faith in the film.

Emphasis on the almost.

Here, have a link: Click me! Please, do!

I think that the action-y and Adler-y stuff looks absolutely ridiculous and terrible, and unshaven Holmes? Seriously? What happened there? But, the Holmes/Watson relationship, I think, has been done extremely well.

We shall see if that's enough to salvage the film for me.

Off Topic: Movie

For all you Holmesians out there...

Guy Ritchie is making a Holmes movie, starring Robert Downey Junior as Holmes, Jude Law as Watson, and Rachel McAdams as Mrs Norton... well, she's Miss Adler in this film, actually...

And lookie! A trailer!

From the point of view of a Sherlockian purist, this looks absolutely horrifyingly canon-killing...
But the part of me that just wants mindless explosions and Jude Law in uniform thinks it's cool!

I'm afraid the first bit is winning out, though...
Eh, but who knows. Maybe it'll be so incredibly terrible that it cycles round to funny...
