Most painters back then took a great deal of time when they painted their canvas. Artist in general who draw/paint a scene try to not make even the slightest mistakes such as putting a star that isn't there because they want to capture the moment that's there.
A splatter would look like a splatter. We could clearly see it isn't a splatter at all. According to another commenter, painters back then made sure not make even the slightest mistakes and add great detail to their artworks. The fact that the *supernova* (not star) is even seen there could be used as evidence that it is fake..... well, in Sherlock Logic (lol). I'll be for real, I am also quite confused.
@@alexandergreiner9578I think he was bringing up evidence for his deduction, like yes he noticed the supernova but he would still need proof to back up why that was important
These 2 end up together a good bit. Not just here but they both got parts in the MCU, and when Cumberbatch was actually the voice of Smaug in the Hobbit.
The greatest thing about the show is how it deliberately keeps certain clues hidden from the viewer so Sherlock can later pick them up and the show acting like the viewer COULD have known but just isn’t as smart as sherlock
That's kinda 1 of the cores of being a detective/investigator is being able to solve and figure things out like the mind of a serial killer. FBI Def does this. They are knowledgeable people who are very intelligent who become FBI Analysts. I think that's the job title.
@WarShadow no a detective uses what they see and what's out of place, it would have have worked if he remembered what the original looked like and discovered the difference because of a tic the artist had. Detective isn't about what you read on a science magazine while you were taking a shit that morning
@@WarShadow818 Actually the job of the FBI is more centered around setting up fake protests in a fascist attempt to instill political power and or assassinating citizens.
Thats actually one of his points in the series, he doesnt know astronomy because it doesnt have any use in detective work, but in this episode he goes to a planetarium chasing a guy and heard this fact while fighting, he didnt get lucky, it was orchestrated by moriarty for sherlock to hear it, if he didnt payed attention then this outcome would've been quite different, so yeah, sherlock passed the test. Edit: correction noted.
They really showed Holmes's love for theatrics too. He could've solved it at 4, but he decided to laugh for a bit and solve at 2 (or even 1 if he could risk it).
Right? And it only just hits me how dark this is. Like a child is literally about to explode and he’s relishing in the cleverness of the puzzle. Truly a psychopath. 10/10 character.
He's asking the murderer for time not to anyone present. If he had proved the murderer sends him a message that he has completed his task since he didn't get the message he understood that he needed to prove it
Funny thing is, Sherlock doesn't know shit about Astronomy, but he had briefly heard some sped up information about it earlier that day, while fighting some wierd looking guy. Amazing memory on his part.
Sherlock in books: Lets use common sense, high perception of one's surroundings and systematically analysing evidence and testimonials given to get the culprit. Sherlock in this series : Yeah that star was different I just remember it because I'm sherlock fuck off.
He didn’t even know about the earth rotating until that ep. He visited a planetarium in the same day so remembering something that happened in the morning isn’t really “I’m Sherlock fuck off” but you do you
@@jotr.9786 bro the guy who was blowing people up planned this all out for him, he HAD to go to the planetarium to hear about the supernova. It was all a test.
@@jotr.9786no it was part of the plot that moriarty gave Sherlock a chance to find the answer by placing a clue about the supernova earlier in the episode, it was planned to test Sherlock
@@Halo-lg7rq Moriarty... Doesn't do that. He appeared around 2 times in the Sherlock books. One of them ending with both of them dying. Goes to show how much of a threat he actually was.. instead of how he's portrayed in the show.
Antagonist: A murder will take place in 10 minutes, unless you can name the animal in the southern hemisphere, it's legs are short, colors are black and white, it walks funny and the name starts with letter P! Holmes: Oh shit.
@@frostbiteicebow1318no, he is right, it isnt Coulson, it is CIA Agent Ross played by Martin Freeman (aka Bilbo from the Hobbit) who first appeared in Civil War and then both BP movies and Secret Wars. Agent Coulson first appeared way back in Iron Man and is played by Clark Gregg
That is actually kinda the books too. No shit Sherlock isn't an insult invented by people, Sherlock was literally told that because he's getting the obvious out of the way first as a thought process.
this is the episode where Sherlock not knowing about the Copernican System is depicted, he then proceeds to visit a Planetarium where Moriarty planted the clue that we see him remembering in this clip. "In the Planetarium, you've heard it too". And, as the other guy commented, in the books he later on got to know quite a lot about it, bc he's a constant learner, curious and - who'd guess - investigative character.
What you saw here is co sistent throughout the whole series, so he's either The Doctor throughout the series, or he's Sherlock Holmes throughout the series, it's either or, take your pick. Lmao
It’s the shows depiction of how fast his mind works. It’s not ultra instinct, it’s literally how his brain functions all the time. That’s why he drinks
For everyone saying that this isn’t a detective’s work and just random knowledge, you need to know the context Before this happened, Sherlock went to a planetarium to stop a murder, but while he fought with the murderer, the presentation on the planetarium was showing the Van Buren supernova. Sherlock didn’t actually know anything about astronomy, he didn’t even know earth was not the center of the universe. So, this shows that he could remember a clue to solve this question.
@@kodiakwallander1728 yes, and he says as much earlier in the episode. Given that the person he went to the planetarium for was the person who'd figured out that the painting was a fake, it's entirely reasonable that he would assume that the presentation she was watching was connected to the case and therefore kept it in his head, even if he usually wouldn't.
Plus there's a scene later where he talks to Watson about how he doesn't know how many planets are in the solar system because it doesn't matter in real life.
He looked it up. And he heard the supernova fact in a library while fighting. Also, a famous artist like that did NOT add in random stars that weren’t there for fun.

Well... I loved Jeremy Brett as Sherlock in the Victorian time and Benedict Cumberbatch as the modern version. I love RDJ, but I didn't like his Sherlock much...
@@callous99 i mean thats fair enough, RDJ's sherlock was my first knowing of sherlock holmes so he holds that "nostalgia" to me for sherlock. Obviously different views are a thing, but seeing as RDJ was my first ever showing of sherlock i automatically associate sherlock with that
