oxfordtweed: Indiana Jones mouthing the words 'We are going to die,' with the same text appearing in time on the bottom. (Indy - We're Gonna Die)
We've been watching Jekyll, on [personal profile] errantcomment's recommendation, and I'm quite enjoying it. Surprise!Gatiss was a bit of a laugh. Of course Moffat put his buddy in the Victorian segment of his show. I'm quite liking the amount of meta in this, though. It's fun in a way that wouldn't have worked at all for Sherlock.

The only time it's acceptable to tell one's partner that you've no trust in them )
oxfordtweed: (Hateful - Sherlock)
I find myself having conflicting feelings about this thing. On the one hand, Irene Adler aside, the first film did do wonderfully at putting Sherlock Holmes back into the public consciousness. I do think that's a good thing. On the other hand, Irene Adler. She could not have been presented any worse than she was, nd think that is a very bad thing.

I'm also a bit hesitant about Stephen Fry as Mycroft. Oh my. Yes. That could be so wonderful. But I just know that the studio have paid for Stephen Fry in a waistcoat, and not Stephen Fry playing a role that isn't himself. I half expect him to call someone 'my darling,' actually.

No, I don't think I'll be seeing this. You lot have fun with it, though. I just... I just can't.
