Bud the Baker Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Roger Moore - surprisingly good as a suave eyebrow raising SH Nicol Williamson - underrated and generally forgotten actor who hates Helen Mirren Michael Caine in a film where the Holmes/Watson roles were reversed Rupert Everett - quite a pervy adaptation Basil Rathbone - who else? Waiting to see how Robert Downey Jnr. will do. ....................and the worst Peter Cook in an adaptation of Hound of the Baskervilles with the Carry On crew.

Peter Cushing did a decent job in the Hammer version of The Hound of the Baskervilles Jeremy Brett was magic too....although by the look of his eyeballs I think he took the method acting a bit too far! Seem to mind a film called Young Sherlock too...forget who played him...but it was utter gash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard Hughes in BlueSuedeShoes Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 1. A Study in Scarlet 2. A Case of Identity 3. A Scandal in Bohemia 4. His Last Bow 5. The Hound of the Baskervilles, natch. Good old Sherlock, the fúcking mad junkie bástard that he was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having seen the trailer for Ritchie's version featuring Downey Jr, I think I can confidently predict that Downey Jr will replace Peter Cook as worst ever Holmes in short order. Sherlock Holmes as an all-action macho fighting hero is just wrong on every level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherlock Holmes as an all-action macho fighting hero is just wrong on every level. It'll probably become a cult-flick... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
