Sherlock

[gwaevalarin]

First of all, a warm welcome to my new friends!
Here's drinks and snacks and a comfy blue sofa. So make yourselves comfortable and feel free to look around.

I just finished Sherlock. I did mean to watch the finale last night but I got so tired halfway through and it's difficult enough to keep up with Sherlock's train of thoughts when I'm fully awake. I'm still kind of waiting for Sherlock to reveal that he is, in fact, the Doctor.
I just love the interaction between Sherlock and Watson. I might even like it better than their counterparts's from the 2009 movie. I'm still undecided on that.

"I'm glad noone saw that."
"Hm?"
"You, ripping my clothes off in a darkened swimming pool. People might talk."

Bwaahahaha! Oh, John!

Are we sure there isn't a fourth part to series 1? How can they just leave us hanging like that? I hate cliffhangers. Actually I don't, not really. But they're still mean. I guess it's safe to say now that there will be a series 2. Yay!
But to be honest, while I love pretty much everything else about this show, I find Moriarty terribly annoying. That might just be his voice, though. I'm not sure.
In case you're one of the roughly two people who haven't seen the show yet, go and change that.

I'm taking the whole sofa for myself. I'm tired.

I'm apprehensive about watching RDJ's Sherlock, because from what I saw from the BBC series and my prior knowledge, the movie remake seems to stray from the source material in a way... But I don't know, I've yet to watch it.

I like Moriarty because he is a lulz psycho. But his voice, yeah, it's okay to talk a little normally. My friend who loves the Sherlock franchise in general says he reminds her too much of the Master from Doctor Who, so she feels he's ripping off the character idk.

I don't really know much about the franchise apart from the movie and the BBC show. But RDJ's and Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock are certainly two very different versions of the same character.

I can't say I saw much of the Master in Moriarty. Well, at least not John Simm's Master. Sure, they're both batshit crazy but I enjoy the Master's version of crazy a lot more.

I'll say the same on the latter half. I've only seen bits and pieces of the Master, so I have no idea if she's right or not, hahaha. Usually I prefer male villains to be more sociopathic, calm and aloof, while female villains more psychopathic, outrageous and dangerous in a more outward way.

I figured the two were different. I wonder if RDJ's is addicted to morphine, lol.

I think RDJ's Holmes is more physical? But I think they actually show similarities. Not only characterwise. The show uses a similar theme as did the movie's soundtrack. And they're both crazy with the violine. And they both have that superior attitude towards John's friends lol
