I am sorry, Robert Downey Jr. You will never be Sherlock Holmes to me. I was considering seeing the new movie for Stephen Fry as Mycroft, but I just saw the trailer and it killed my interest.

I get the feeling I might be able to enjoy these movies if they were just inspired by Holmes and the main character was called something else entirely. I know the whole point is that it's supposed to be a re-imagining for a 21th century audience, with lots of explosions and gunfire, but it just doesn't feel right to me.

I saw the trailer too. They didn't even show Stephen Fry in that trailer. I did expect Rachel McAdams to make an appearance.

I was 'eh' over the first movie. It felt okay, not spectacular. I do have a feeling that amped up the explosions and gunfire in the trailer.

Personally, I'll prefer BBC Sherlock with Benedict Cumberbatch (I love his name) and Martin Freeman.

I keep meaning to catch an episode of BBC's Sherlock. It sounds like it's really good, but I'm not good at remembering to watch TV at specific times.

It's pretty good. There's only one episode I don't like

There should be some online though.
