When I think of Sherlock I think of the double-brimmed hat, plaid cloak, and the hounds of Baskerville. I always thought someone would do a modern remake since the Batmans/Spidermans.

I will see this movie when I can find it. Where's the hat?

[[SS]Rator]

he lost the hat in a UFC match.

lol

[[SS]Rator]

or maybe in the high speed car chase?

[HunsingerDE]

actually Conan Doyle did write Holmes as one who had fighting and martial arts skills.

and there were no cars back then, so it had to have been a carriage chase;)

regarding the fighting though, I'm not sure if anyone thought, or feared, from the trailer that it was gonna be like the cheezy slo mo fighting effect from watchmen, fear not. It's actually pretty damn cool what Ritchie does in the fight scenes

btw, Rator, when was the last time you even saw a movie in the theater;)

[[SS]Rator]

i liked this movie, and was surprised to find that it was a guy ritchie joint. i have even read that the sequel might be in trouble though for some implications of a homo-erotic relationship between watson and holmes. i wonder who asked the other for a dance? <nod to rocknrolla>

All speculation of course, but they are moving forward wit ha Sherlock Holmes 2....

'Sherlock' Sequel Starring Brad Pitt (http://www.popeater.com/2009/12/29/brad-pitt-coming-to-sherlock-holmes-2/)

After 'Sherlock Holmes' managed to uncover more than $65 million in its opening weekend, 'Sherlock Holmes 2' is being planned with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law already committed. But the big surprise will be the addition of Brad Pitt as Professor Moriarty.

"The director, Guy Ritchie, loves Brad," an industry source tells me. "He has worked with him before and thinks he is one of the most underrated actors working today. Guy knows that everyone thinks of as a Pitt as a pretty boy and can't wait to turn him into the world's greatest supervillain. It will definitely make the sequel a must-see."

Pitt and Ritchie worked together on 2000's 'Snatch,' in which Pitt played a mumbling, can't-understand-a-word-he-says Irish gypsy fighter. He definitely wasn't a 'pretty boy' in it, and hopefully that's exactly what Ritchie can pull out of him again.

As for Brad, an insider tells me he's "very interested in taking on the role and happy they aren't considering his kick-ass partner Angelina for the part."

[Sabotage]

Yes I've heard this too. If it does happen it should be pretty good because that's an awesome cast and director.
