Escape to the Movies: Sherlock Holmes

[The Rogue Wolf]

Wow, House actually is SHERLOCK HOLMES, now that you mention it. Thought provoking review!

But that... that means....

HUGH LAURIE IS ACTUALLY ROBERT DOWNEY JR.!

I knew it! They called me mad, but now I have proof!

Also, the review cuts out at 3:24 for me as well, despite refreshing the page five times. Ah well, it's Christmas, the Associate Apprentice Assistant to the Guy Who Makes The Videos Not Cut Off Early is probably wasted on eggnog. I'll check back later.

4:13 and it stops =-(

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I got all of the video except for 4:44-4:52. Skipped ahead with clicks.

can't wait to see this film,looks awesome.

FWIW, i.e. the House thing - next time you're watching, check out the number on House's apartment, the various Doyle books that turn up in the background and how frequently (at least twice, I think) the name Irene Adler turns up.

Good review. Looking forward to seeing it even though the plot may be a bit weak.

 

[Chunko]

I'm glad he gave spoiler alerts this time, he spoiled a lot in zombieland. I'll watch this review after I see the movie.

Blargh, the theater announced they had sold out a few moments after we arrived, so we're going to end up seeing it some indeterminate time next week. Now to avoid spoilers...

Saying this in a proud manner on Christmas day of all days is as pitiful as this sentence is ironic.

 

[The Great JT]

I'm still on the fense about Downey Jr. playing Holmes. All the actors in Britan and they got an American to play him?

 

[RandV80]

So how come Movie Bob can get a Christmas week video in but Yahtzee can't?

[/sarcasm]

 

[MB202]

Definitely going to see this movie when my Grandma arrives where I live!

I didn't see the entire video, mostly because I don't want to be spoiled, but also because the video stopped for some reason in the middle.

...Just wondering, ARE you going to review The Princess and the Frog?

 

[Jared]

Going to see this tommorow...Hopefully, will be entertaining at the least

 

[Ioc2much]

What was wrong with The Spirit. It was campy and ridiculous and I enjoyed the crap out of it.

 

[iblis666]

Seriously? You make your very first post ever on this site... A 'first' post?

You sir... Have won this year's Christmas Forum Fail Award.

Not a very detailed review in my opinion, but it's the holidays, so who cares? right?

I'm about to see this film in two hours with my family. If it does turn out to be horrifically average, so be it. However, I am relieved to hear that the lead actors performed well in this movie.

If you want people not to dislike your very existence on these forums you'll remember not to post "1st" next time.

Other than that welcome to the Escapist!

Gentlemen, troll. Don't feed it.

 

[Smokescreen]

Nice review.

One thing I've found very interesting about RDJr's career since he got sober is that he continually plays addicts of some sort, or at least someone using alcohol to kill pain.

It's almost as though he's found a way to work out his demons by playing such characters. But he plays them excellently-I'm not complaining, just noting a trend.

House...Holmes...Homes....

House = Home

Holmes = House


It was right in front of me and I never saw it. Though I've watched like, 3 episodes of house in my life and I feel like that is pretty much all of them.
