Gort posted:The bit where Cumberbatch goes to his mind palace and projects designer brand logos out of his skull. When I saw that, I thought it had been altered to be as cringe-inducing as possible, but no, that was the original show. e: The T54 was a Soviet MBT and a road in Ireland and I'm sure there's some way that brain genius Cummings is planning to combine the two.

Pesky Splinter posted:Down to the acting, I like the scene where Moriarty pretends to be a regular actor whose just been paid to pretend to be this super genius by a third party, just to gaslight Sherlock. There's some pretty good acting in the series - it's just the writing loving blows most of the time. That one always bugged me. His assumed persona of actor was supposed to be on childrens' TV, and yet no one recognised him at the highly publicised trial? The created "Richard Brook" either should have been something noticeable to people, or something flimsy enough that they'd be able to see it was fake because his supposed role wouldn't exist.

The ONE TRUE Sherlock. Jaeluni Asjil posted:Jeremy Brett studied Sherlock Holmes in great detail and practically made it his life's work. I've been a Sherlock Holmes fan since I was a child and used to read the books avidly even as an 8/9 year old - and he personified Holmes to me. Same; Brett to Holmes is as Suchet to Poirot, (and Hickson to Marple, for that matter). --- Chuka Umana posted:I still think BoJo will manage to pull through. Tory PMs have recovered from harder places Not saying it's impossible, but it's a loving big pit of his own making to drag his loathsome carcass out of. It just seems like it boils down to: A) Hope the EU blocks an extension. B) Try to chicken out/break convention/whatever the gently caress to not actually asking the EU for an extension (which raises a poo poo-tonne of legal questions) C) If an extension is granted, hope to win a majority at a GE on a platform of "No Deal" (or whatever tosh he can feed the seething gammon masses). Unless there's another option hidden in Cummings ad-splooged mind palace.

the first 2 seasons of Sherlock were OK and entertaining enough, but the more recent ones, my god the reveal of how he fell off the roof was absolute shite and it only got worse from there between Mary Watson being some sort of international superspy assassin and the massive secret society of women controlling the world and Sherlock's magical sister being held in an underground cell on a deserted island I'm beginning to think that Steven Moffat has some... interesting ideas about women e: also Clive Merrison is the best Sherlock Holmes don't @ me

thespaceinvader posted:Sherlock had some excellent production values and was genuinely inventive with a lot of its camerawork and postproduction stuff (specifically, how it dealt with texts and the internet set kind of a trend that is still being developed to this day, but I don't really think has been improved on, and some of the sequences in the 'kill someone/anyone' episode were incredibly cleverly done with the set and backdrop changes) but was utter dreck from a story perspective. I'm slightly embarassed that I stuck with it as long as I did, especially given how genuinely bad season 4 was. The text thing he nicked from Hollyoaks

Oh yes. Hickson as Marple is perfect. The worst ever are those Geraldine McEwan adaptations which change whodunnit, change the story, put Marple in stories she was never in, they're dreadful. The Julia McKenzie ones are slightly better. I'm a purist when it comes to the classics.
