So Kane Pixels uploaded a new video in their not backroom series. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWNMsZ44ooc. Its a lot more interesting. I think they are using Unreal Engine 5 for it, which is neat.

Made by DIC (when they'd moved to North America) and Scottish Television so somehow no. I mean I guess I don't know how it sounds in Scots but I don't think "Sherlock Holmes" scans whatever language you're singing in.

njsykora posted:The best Sherlock adaptation is the Jeremy Brett series. I was so happy when I found the complete DVD boxset of it but wish the later series weren't basically movies split in half to fit a normal timeslot instead of just airing as TV movies. I second this. Its only flaw is that it is kinda depressing to watch after the first season because Jeremy Brett was on some meds for bipolar (if I remember correctly) and they were doing a number on him and you could see him physically get worse and worse as the seasons and episodes went along. However the first season is masterclass and well worth watching and every subsequent season is still extremely good.

Zedd posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyGAc-OLAiQ I love learning about oddball cartoons like this. The first episode even opens up with Lestrade getting the 'McCloud' speech. "You busted three cruisers, two buildings etc taking this guy down!"  It's like learning about that Stargate cartoon.

How about the robocop cartoon, or the second robocop cartoon, with the most thought-provoking lyrics ever https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xa5LM8NrREA

Absolutely the best version. Did Moriarty ever have a henchman horribly devoured? Did Sherlock ever have to tangle with a robotic Queen Victoria? Exactly.

I'll never forget watching this in grade school and having every classmate turn their heads to look at me the second the mouse girl says her name for the first time, because it was also my name and we're all like seven so the coincidence was subsequently mind-blowing I guess

I still love the story about how that movie was originally going to be called "Basil of Baker Street" just like the book series it's based on, but Michael Eisner said that the movie title sucked, was "too English" and it should make the premise more obvious. So the name was adjusted to "The Great Mouse Detective" which all of the creative teams loving hated. So someone sent this jokey memo around the animation studio:

"The Boy Who Would Be King" is probably the name of several King Arthur things. But I'm "Color and Music."

I think The Great Mouse Detective is a pretty good title to be honest. It’s more descriptive for the sake of the little kids who might not understand the Baker Street reference, but with a bonus pun that only the adults are likely to get.

Zeniel posted:One of the most faithful adaptations of the characters is probably in the 1970s soviet tv series The Aventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Apart from the fact that evetyone is speaking Russian and has Russian mannerisms, the setting and characterisations are all amazing. Vasily Livanov is also the voice of Gena the Crocodile in the Cheburashka cartoons  https://youtu.be/XVDkdvEplrQ?feature=shared

I'm not sure just naming your movie after the name of your protaganist is much more creative.

"A Fox and a Hound are Friends" sounds like a movie that started as an adaptation of the Frog and Toad series that was rendered nigh unrecognizable through production by committee... Also as much as I want to tag myself with "Two Mice Save a Girl, "I'm pretty sure I'm actually "The Evil Bonehead"

My strongest memory of watching this is a kid is being so scared of the scene where Ratigan goes ballistic and beats the poo poo out of Basil that I left the room and hung out on the stairway when it got that far in reruns.

I haven't thought about it in 25 years but yeah, I remember that whole showdown being way more brutal than it needed to be. It holds up, IMO. https://youtu.be/9l5OAafMr7w?si=CHWmMJx-IUJpVGrz

They actually pull this off in the board game Villainous and it's why Ratigan is the best character.
