We saw Sherlock Holmes
Enjoyed it very much, and will probably go see it again.
I was rather bummed about Irene, but as I understand it, her character was only in one story, so I suppose it shouldn't surprise me. I'm betting the next movie starts with Mary's funeral, unless they keep her around for one more. Anywho, the movie was entertaining, I though Jered Harris was wonderful (wow, he looks like his dad!), and Sherlock on the Shetland was worth the price of the ticket. Sent me into a fit of giggles. I don't know much about Mycroft, so can't speak to Stephen Frye's version, but was fun having him in the movie. I was rather surprised they did 'the end' at the beginning. When I saw the falls, I whispered to Nin, "I wonder if they're the falls? And by golly, they were! Obviously, they could still bring Moriarty back, but this way, I guess we won't have a string of Holmes v. his archenemy films (how about Moriarty gets frozen at the bottom, gets unthawed in our time and becomes Iron Man's arch-nemesis???)(sorry, couldn't help myself there.)

Date: 2011-12-28 03:25 pm (UTC)From:One of the three Sherlock episodes will be Reichenbach (sort of a spoiler, so I apologise if you've been spoiled but since the episode is called Reichenbach Falls it's not a big secret or anything!), it's going to be interesting to compare the two versions.
*feeds the Moriarty bunnies* And maybe Charlotte or Methos had a run in with him and recognises him? *weg*
I was fortunately forewarned about Mr Fry's nekkid scene thanks to his apologies on Twitter so I was able to thoroughly enjoy his Mycroft and I loved that Robert subtly tweaked his Sherlock to fit as his brother. (psst, it's not a huge deal and I hate to be a pedant but I noticed in the comments others were taking their spelling cues from you so FYI it's Jared Harris and Stephen Fry)
