In which I remember how to ramble.

Tl;dr?  Too bad! :p
FB has been gradually eroding our ability to read things longer than a small paragraph. 
Think of my ramblings as helpful reading practice.

So, turns out if I want to post more on LJ this year, I actually...have to post. Who knew? 0_o

*rummages around brain for something to talk about*  I'm frighteningly out of practice with this

I benefit from a certain amount of Sherlock-Holmes-ignorance that I pretty much take any version on face value. My only expectations are that I will see London, a detective named Holmes and a sidekick named Watson. I enjoyed the first Downey film, and looking forward to the second. I'm not even aware of the BBC version!

It sounds like I'm being awfully picky about the various adaptations in my post, but I actually have such a soft spot for any and all Sherlock Holmes films that even the terrible ones make me grin like a kid. The Downey ones are definitely not terrible though, I love them

Brett is my favorite Holmes. I haven't seen the movies yet, but I hear they're great, although some people think too much license was taken with the characters.

Did you ever read Neil Gaiman's Holmes/H.P Lovecraft crossover story?

"A Study in Emerald"? Yep, I've read it. I have a rubbish memory though, so I need to read it again
