Releasing this year. Featuring several actors. Also some reprising their roles.

A lot of people seemed to like the fact that Watson was a hot guy and not a fat bumbling sidekick usually seen with Sherlock Holmes. I'm unsure of the matter. If it's not a bumbling sidekick archetype then that only leaves room for homoerotic relationship type of two hot guys, which just kills any chance of a female lead developing a love interest with the, for the characters.


Maybe.

I saw the first movie thinking it would be a cool mystery movie, but no it was like Van Helsing without the awesomeness. There seemed to be useless scenes, such as the one when sherlock was in the fighting pit that lasted too long. The slow-mo effects for figuring stuff out was used too much. Overall, it could've been any movie, they just decided to slap sherlock holmes on it. Needless to say, I'm not excited for the new movie. On the plus side, the acting was good.

I'll more than likely watch it. Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law have very good chemistry together.

God I hated Van Helsing. Hugh Jackmen really isn't someone I enjoy.

I enjoyed the first. Will probably see the second.

Most certainly. I really like the first one. Need to buy the movie for my collection one of these days as well.

I'll still see it, but I'm not as stoked as I once was. I was pretty pumped for it when the rumor was that Daniel Day Lewis was going to be Moriarty, sadly that is not the case.

Nope. I didn't enjoy the first one, because I found it to be too long, and boring. I fell asleep about an hour in and woke up just in time to catch the last 10-20 minutes of it.

I remember not being able to hear a word anyone said in that movie, so no.

I will go watch it if it can improve from the first one.
