The Game is Afoot!

The new Sherlock miniseries is coming out next week, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what they did with it. The trailer looks interesting, but I'm trying to reserve judgment or get my hopes up too much. It could be an awesome updating of the classic, or end up like a bad modern-day AU fanfic. I'm hoping for the former, but we'll see. ( Read more... )

UPRISING!!! I mean... HOLMES!!!!!!!

It is a modern retelling... and mustaches aren't really in right now (unless you're Jude Law playing Watson......). So perhaps that's why there's no mustache...?

I thought of you when I heard the music playing in the preview. :)

I know mustaches aren't really in right now, but... it's Watson. Surely they could have found some way to modernize it? *sigh*

Personally, I think mustaches are sexy. IMO, Jude Law was never hotter than when he had one. :)

I do too. :)

I saw an extended preview over at sherlockbbc, and it looked pretty interesting. Not all the cops trust him like they tend to do in the books (one even makes a comment that he's a psychopath and will end up killing people,) and it looks like Watson actually calls him out on some of his crap. It's definitely modernized. :)

Here's to hoping it lives up to the previews. :)
