What is your favorite version of Sherlock Holmes??

@anthonyleecollins9319 Год назад

When I was growing up, it was easy: Basil Rathbone was Sherlock Holmes. Since then, I've enjoyed a lot of different interpretations, including the wonderful Nicholas Briggs in the Big Finish audio adventures, but Jeremy Brett is still definitive to me, since he's the closest to Holmes as he appeared in the canon.

@CapturingPhotons Год назад

Growing up it was Basil Rathbone. The best in my opinion even if he didn't portray the more eccentric side of the character. More recently, the BBC show Sherlock is one of the most accurate to the original books even though it's set in Modern day.

@stanyer8164 Год назад

Jeremy Brett.

@mattyoung7415 Год назад

@Anthony Lee Collins Jeremy Brett all day. Just happened upon that version on daytime TV when I was off sick from work one day. Gobsmacked. Not only the best Sherlock for me (although BC comes a very close second), but just outright one of the best performances I've seen in anything, by anyone. Amazing.

@FluffyJackie Год назад

This one, closely followed by BBC's version.

@Sovreign071 Год назад

Holmes closed his eyes before falling, because if he didn't survive, he wanted Watson to be the last person he saw.

@whitenoisereacts Год назад

Oh that’s so cool!!!

@FridgeChic Год назад

That's cute, but I also think he was relaxing his body/meditating so he'd be limp when he hit the water; better chance of survival. Similar to how drunk drivers avoid injury b/c they are loose and don't tense up.

@crimsonknight7011 Год назад

Saw the same thing with a skier who got knocked out in speed competition and did numerous bone breaking flips but since he was knocked out his body went limp and he had no broken bones. Think it’s called rag-doll

@daykon6843 Год назад

What I like about the waterfall scene is that during the mental battle between Holmes and Moriarty, Moriarty seems to have the upper hand in the fight but what he doesn’t take into account is Holmes willing to sacrifice his own life to take him down and to protect his friend, showing how Moriarty is so selfish and narcissistic that he doesn’t take into account that Sherlock would be capable of such a selfless act which ends up being what defeats him.

@pedrocaravela7665 Год назад

Now this ☝is what I call a brilliant character analysis.

@razena1732 Год назад

I think another great point is that neither of them consider outside sources such as Watson. It was a weakness already shown by Sherlock when he was saving Simza, and that is something that I find fascinating.

@omarholder9036 Год назад

I think Holmes won the chess match with a queen sacrifice as well.

@robbob5302 Год назад

In Moriarty's defense, Holmes was never noted for his altruism before.

@TheGuyAlwaysOnTime 2 месяца назад

Actually I think so too: I always wondered if killing Adler was supposed to provoke Holmes, but it may have been a warning, one that would have worked if Sherlock was a egomaniac like Moriarty. Moriarty also was content with leaving Holmes alive after the chess game, until he realized Sherlock destroyed his plans.

@16Arson Год назад

“Come now. You really think you’re the only one who can play this game?” - That line still gives me chills.

@TheSmokingSkull Год назад

I remember, years ago in the theater, people started cheering when Holmes finally started his inner monologue during the Moriarty fight, then became completely silent when Moriarty's inner monologue joined in... it was awesome.

@MandoWookie Год назад

The "battle of the minds" scene is one of my favorite in any movie. Another somewhat meta thing this sequel does, which in my mind makes it one of the best, is that it uses the 'Sherlock scan' from the first film, and the first half of this, to lull the audience into following Sherlocks deductions, seeing what he sees, and like him, feel like you know what is going on. Then, especially in the opera house sequence, pulls the rug out from underneath you when you realize that you were wrong. Just like Sherlock felt. It gets the viewer in the head of the protagonist in a way I only ever see in novels, but with a visual medium. It's fantastic. Then at the summit during the chest game, when Holmes starts doing his 'fight analysis' , and Moriaty cuts in, like he is in Sherlocks head. Because he is. And the back and forth there has high stakes, not just because they are both describing the strengths and weaknesses that will lead to Holmes losing, but because we have already been shown that Moriarty CAN beat him once already in the film. But it's the way it is filmed that sells it, taking the familiar automatic win sequence of Sherlock planning his smackdown and disrupting it with the villain cutting in and doing it too, which also gets in the audiences head and makes you uneasy as now the outcome is uncertain. Again, getting you in the mindset and feelings of the protagonist. And communicating it almost entirely visually. When he is on his A game, Guy Ritchie is one of the greatest visual artists ever.

@Nekotaku_TV Год назад

@barisbal7782 3 месяца назад

i must admit, i was a bit disappointed when these two never got a chance to actually fight. because; 1) im a succer for boss fights 2) they've mentioned moriarty's boxing skills, so it would be a cool pay off but neverthless, this one was one of the most satisfying villain defeat i've ever seen.

@otakuwolf4ever985 Год назад

Moriarty is the perfect villain. His calm demeanor just sends chills down your spine. And yet, when he starts tapping his pen, you can tell he's furious.

@kiranpunnoose2441 Год назад

Guy Richie's camera work in the chase scene in the forest was phenomenal and shot so well to let the audience follow what was happening. It wasn't gimmicky slow-mo, it was purposefully shot so we can see all of the characters and where they are and what they were doing. It really embodied Sherlock's mind: in all the chaos, he still finds focus even in the minute details.

@minarge Год назад

The slow-mo guys (on RU-vid) helped to shoot that scene!

@Corn_Pone_Flicks Год назад

It's also something Ritchie has done for much of his career...his first film has similar, if less ambitious, shots of that sort. He was an early pioneer of that shooting style.

@coulsonintahiti Год назад

@Skara159 Год назад

I love the evolution of Sherlock. In the first movie everything goes always as Sherlock plans it in his mind. In the second movie nothing plays out as he thinks, to the point of him learning to embrace it and go of plan.

9:06 - Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock's older, SMARTER brother, played here by one of my favorite British actors, Steven Fry. 9:32 - And it's at THIS moment that all the Holmes fans that DIDN'T go into the theater knowing what was coming collectively said "Oh, shit." 11:39 - 'Crack his eggs' and 'flip the omelet.' ALWAYS gets me. 32:00 - "Mine is bigger than yours." 33:06 - The Gatling Gun was first invented in 1862. It would only take a little timely inspiration and the proper resources to scale it down, and Moriarty has both in abundance.

@MandoWookie Год назад

There were attempts to motorized the Gatlings with electric motors in the late 1800s, basically steampunk mini guns, but the Maxim machine gun appeared at roughly the same time and was much more practical. The weapon tech in this movie is about 10 to 20 years to early, at least what is shown in the factory. The Mauser pistol wasn't invented for another 5 years, and the concept for the small machine-gun Watson used would not be around for 20. The Maxim used on the train is also a little early, but not impossibly so. What's funny is Moriartys plan is this movie is identical and just as steampunk ish as the Moriarty in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

@burrzie8446 Год назад

The fight between Holmes and Moriarty is on another level. Fighting one another to the death, but complementing each others moves at the same time.

@MandoWookie Год назад

What's funny is, they never actually fight. That was all in Holmes head. He realized before the first punch he was going to lose, and knew Moriarty knew it too. So he didn't actually fight him. He grabbed him, and took both of them over the edge. Something Moriarty couldn't predict because he was thinking in terms of 'winners and losers' not like Holmes in 'taking you down no matter what' because Moriarty would continue to threaten the people he cared about if not taken out.

@sherrysink3177 Год назад

There's a fun... let's call it an... open-ended implication - about Mycroft Holmes. You'll notice that he's effectively head of a very early form of the British Secret Service. A later spy agency that could very well have been a descendant of this one is the famous MI6 - the agency that 007 James Bond worked for. And Bond's boss in most of the movies was code-named "M". M possibly an homage in that universe to... Mycroft, perhaps? If you like to tie in various movies and shows via oblique details like that in fan-fiction, they've certainly provided a hook for that, here!

The real code letter for the head of the British Secret Intelligence Service is C, taken from the surname of the first to occupy the office - Sir Mansfield Smith-Cumming. All of this was classified until quite recently, but was known to Ian Flemming as he had worked for SIS himself. So using the letter M in the Bond books was an inside joke.

If you notice Mycroft is the one who disarms the assassin and orders his attendant to protect the ambassador. He runs toward the trouble. Which was at odds with his demeanor prior. Which suggests like Sherlock he is capable of a lot more than he appears at first. Also Stephen Fry is great, he has that combo of being disarmingly funny and non-threatening, but is also a very large man with an intimidating presence if required.

I saw an interview with Guy 'a while back' where he said they finalized the script for the 3rd outing and that Downey had signed off on it, so they were ready to shoot because they had have a window between Infinity Wars and Endgame that Downey was available for. I guess the shoot went over that window and they never got to make it. Considering how 'close' they are to having the finalized ingredients, it's just a matter of time for them to get around to it; just wish it wasn't taking this long :/ And as everyone has already said, yes, please do BBC's Sherlock. The first coupla seasons are brilliant. Then maybe get back to more Ritchie, maybe start at the beginning, Lock Stock, and go forward :)

@mycroft16 Год назад

The run through the woods escaping the weapons factory is one of the most beautifully shot sequences. The zoom in/out, the time changes, following artillery and bullets through the chaos... almost like the chaos is the main character in the sequence. I really wish they would make more of these... these two movies were just so much damn fun. And perfectly cast. Think of Moriarty and Holmes like Batman and The Joker. And Mycroft, in the books, basically RAN the British government. Whatever role he had, more or less everything had to go through him. He was involved in espionage and covert operations as well as the Navy and Army, etc. He was also enormously fat and NEVER worked. He sat in the gentleman's club he belonged to and ate all the time. If someone had to go search something up, he called on his brother Sherlock. And sometimes when Sherlock was utterly stumped he'd go to Mycroft who was the smarter of the two of them.

First-time commentator on White Noise Reacts. Great reaction, you guys! While you have voiced an interest in watching the relatively recent and popular BBC series _Sherlock_ (2012-17), may I suggest that you instead watch the Granada _Sherlock Holmes_ series (1984-1994), which starred the late, great Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes? Though it may seem like an oddity against the heavily-promoted series starring Benedict Cumberbatch, I promise you guys that it is as close to an immaculately faithful adaptation of the original works by Arthur Conan Doyle that you will ever find in terms of plot, setting and, not least, the main actor’s unforgettable portrayal of Holmes (I personally consider Jeremy Brett’s performance to be the definitive standard against which all other media portrayals of Holmes are measured). In addition to being the spitting image of artist Sidney Paget’s illustrations of Sherlock Holmes from _The Strand Magazine_ , Brett became so fanatically devoted to researching and embodying the character of Holmes that it actually took a mental toll on him (in addition to him already being manic-depressive); in return, he managed to physically, tonally, verbally, facially and quotationally emulate the athleticism, demeanour, body language, neuroticism and underlying humanity of the literary character down to a T. All of the above seem even more remarkable when one considers the fact that Brett began the role at age 50 until his unfortunate death at age 61. To this day, the Granada _Sherlock Holmes_ series remains his legacy. Regardless of your choice, should you wish to broach the Granada series starring Jeremy Brett, note that its four "seasons" were released under different titles. They are as follows: 1) _The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes_ (1984-85) 2) _The Return of Sherlock Holmes_ (1986-88) 3) _The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes_ (1991-93) 4) _The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes_ (1994) Best regards

That scene in the forest with the slow mo running took weeks to film; they had camera rigs 40 feet long that would whip around at lightning speed to capture that slow mo running. Also that bullet passing Watson's jacket was a real cloth simulation of a bullet being shot past a dummy with the same clothing and they edited it into the shot.

33:05 It's interesting to note that most of the weapons and Moran's suppressor in the movie have a prototype or basis in reality.

I rewatched this movie months ago for the first time in years and HOLY COW it was so much better than I remembered. I personally thought the action was fine but I can see how it can take some out of the movie. I def teared up a couple of times especially when we thought Holmes was dead🥲 I remember when the breather and camouflage were revealed, I felt like Watson in the situation and was mad at him waiting THIS long to reveal he wasn't dead to his best friend but also relieved he was alive. Mix of emotions I wasn't expecting for Sherlock movie, but I loved it✨

@sherrysink3177 Год назад

I would love to see you both start in on the Sherlock series (with Benedict Cumberbatch). It would be an interesting compare / contrast on the Holmes and Watson dynamic and how all 4 actors play those characters. Plus, Sherlock is just a terrific series. Really fun. P.S. I share your love for the film soundtrack. I ended up buying it to listen to (especially when working) because it's so good! And I like listening to instrumental stuff when working so lyrics don't distract me. I think music helps me stay focused on my tasks.

For “that scene” I feel that it was used for a.) it is a cool scene with the action and the camera work but I also think it is used for b.) to show the enormity of what is coming. What I mean is that it is at the turn of the century to the 1900’s that the world is becoming more advanced; the electric light in 1879 and the telephone in 1876 were just the beginning. Weapons were being advanced as well. No one really saw the devastation that those weapons could do until WWI, Sherlock included (at least in movie standards). That’s why I think this scene was in the movie, to show us the audience and Sherlock that this is what is in store if Moriarty get his way. Of course Sherlock beats him, but as we know in the end, Moriarty was right, it just took them 23 years to begin WWI.

My favorite quote was: "You see, hidden within the unconscious, there is an insatiable desire for conflict. So, you're not fighting me, so much as you are the human condition.

We rarely see scripts this smart, and so well directed. The title looks to me like a sly reference to the espionage war between the British Empire and the Russian Empire. In the UK, they called it "The Great Game," and in Russia they called it "The Tournament of Shadows." So it was an appropriate title for a story in which Holmes takes on a mastermind who is not only bringing the world to WW1, but who plans to profit handsomely from it ... which is a theme of WW1, as there were big war profiteers, and this was widely discussed. So this story was well crafted and rooted in history, as well as in the general Holmes mythos, especially in light of adaptations of Holmes in film during the WW2 era (the Basil Rathbone series).

Omg I love this movie so much and I'm such a nerd about Sherlock Holmes I could talk about it for hours xD This movie is a very loose adaptation of the only story with Moriarty in it : The Final Problem. Holmes and Moriarty’s dialogue in their first scene in the movie is very close to their first meeting in the original story and Watson’s speech after Holmes dies is exactly the same. In the story, Holmes is being pursued by Moriarty’s men and takes Watson with him to Switzerland to hide but Moriarty’s men trick Watson into separating from Holmes and take Holmes to the falls where he has a confrontation with Moriarty and seemingly falls in the waterfall with him. It’s much smaller and much more contained so that’s why I said “loose adaptation” xD And what you said about Conan Doyle is true, apparently he was tired of the character and killed him to write some other stuff but apparently a lot of fans annoyed him into writing new SH stories and so he revived him lmao Anyway, to come back to the movie I prefer this one to the first one even though the first one is so good. This one is just even more epic and clever I love it ! And Moriarty is such a great villain, Jared Harris plays him perfectly ! I personally love the action and even though I can understand why some people can be bothered by it because it doesn’t fit the SH image of being clever and fighting with the mind, I actually love it ! They are so many scenes and moments I love in this that this comment would turn into an essay so I’m gonna stop there 😅 There was supposed to be a 3rd movie but it got delayed several times and then even more because of covid so now I don’t know if it’ll ever come out but I really hope so ! 🤞 Also I would love for you to react to Sherlock ! If you’ve never watched the show you’re in for a treat because it’s very cool and clever ! Each episode is 1h30 so it feels like a small movie and the cast is perfect !

This was definitely a step up in ambition for Pr. Moriarty. In the books, Moriarty was the Napoleon of Crime; helping criminals orchestrate forgeries, robberies and murders, even protecting criminals from the law, in exchange for a percentage. Here, Moriarty is seeking to orchestrate a world war with which he would profit. All he had to do was wait a few more years.

I can’t recommend the BBC Sherlock enough. I remember being completely horrified of the concept of a modern Sherlock when I first heard about it because I’d seen some of the older movies and read some of the books when I was a kid and I genuinely wasn’t sure how the aesthetic of Sherlock Holmes would translate to a modern day. I have never been so happy to be wrong about a tv show in my life. It’s hands down my favourite adaption and the cast is absolutely fantastic. Even if you don’t decide to put it on the channel I’d honestly just recommend it as something to watch in your own time.

@memorymotions Год назад

I could teach a whole writing class just on the subtext in Holmes and Moriarty's conversation in Moriarty's classroom. They never directly say what they mean, they just dance around it. "more recent endeavors" "I will send my regards to the happy couple." It's just excellent dialogue writing.
