jeremy brett was for me the best sherlock

Yep.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

Yep.

 

[Dostoevsky]

indeed, holmes is dark and impenetrable

Well I personally think it suits his role perfectly. He doesn't give a shit about people, he's distanced from everything and it's only the case it matters, and it just suits him. IMO that role was nailed.

Exactly, even though i disregard the Robert Downey Jr. depiction of Holmes, it's much better than the TV series. Skinny pants, shirts, a fancy coat, androgynous and all in all a total pussy.

That's Bizzare, read enough Holmes books to know that despite the modern setting(alters the character of course for that) , the Sherlock tv series is MUCH more genuine depiction then those movies(his twisted nature) , Holmes isn't a classless action comedy hero...

Visualy stunning movie, did not however have any clue of what the plot of the movie or book entailed. Had I known I think I would have steered well clear of this one, or perhaps have just viewed it with the volume down.

Spoiler

I guess I just wanted this movie to be about a guy surviving at sea with a tiger and nothing more.

It goes on tv for the last decade (re-runs all year long), prolly seen almost all episodes, way back. Its what defines Sherlock Holmes adaptions for me (since it was first one I saw, but also classic, almost literal adaption of character), but I still enjoy the modern take the Sherlock has ALOT, very entertaining. The movies? They are a joke, and I say this as someone who pretty much likes Downey Jr in anything he does (he is funny in his role, but he isnt Holmes).

 

[Elvin]

I'm gonna go ahead and say that Gregory House from House MD is the best depiction of Holmes.

Tried watching The Notebook. 10 mins in, I couldn't stand Ryan Gosling. Not gonna watch it.

 

[Klovn]

I liked Here Comes The Boom.

I rarely laugh to movies. But this got me a few times.

 

[Klin]

I loved Argo.

 

[Lapa]

Borrowed The Rules of Attraction from my friend...need to watch it again soon. One of the dopest movies ever made.

I recommend it to all of you who know the wild side of life...for boring fuckers, just stick with Schindler's list.

 

[Enron]

Rules of Attraction was a bit of a let down.

Speaking of legends, am I yet worthy of being considered a legend around here?
