The SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS Trailer!
Nordling here.
Well, the trailer looks fun enough, but if there were any doubts about Holmes' and Watson's "friendship" before, well, this trailer suggests that they take it to an entirely new level. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Ahem. Also, look at Watson rocking the blue and brown scarf. Most guys in that time period would have never attempted that look, and Watson makes it work. Kidding aside, I enjoyed the first one (though BBC's SHERLOCK with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman just owns these films in every conceivable way), and I'm looking forward to this - although Sherlock wearing a dress... yeah. The online HD trailer is available at Apple here, and YouTube embed by BleedingCool.com:
SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS opens this Christmas. Nordling, out.

but the video still is holmes in drag. that's all i need to know. groan.

REALLY?
-
Trailer doesn't really do it for me.
-
bring on the Batman trailer!
-
Hes going to make Sherlock cut his workstaff. and budget the office supplies. oh snap
-
Guess I have to wait for the international trailer...
-
...but these movies seem to be a lot of fun. Two great leads with eye-catching cinematography. What's to complain about?
-
Ah, I get it...like on "the downlow." Right. Hmm. Oh well. At least they're not overdoing the whole slow-mo action scene thing. Err....
-
As in, George MacDonald? This look like a Sherlock Holmes and Flashman mashup.
-
Now I'll leave before the hate brigade arrives, ta ta!
-
Bring on the second series of the BBC's Sherlock. Far more interesting.
-
I wasn't crazy about the first one. It had all the elements. Good cast. Solid direction. Great look. Terrific Zimmer score. However, the script and villain were lacking. The most important part of a Holmes story should be a solid central mystery. Part one didn't really have it. This one looks worse.

I say Watson, remember that time you pronounced Moriarty dead?
by LargoJr
Funny how you couldn't tell he hadn't been hung, or shat & pissed himself, or did any kind of autopsy. And because of it all those people died? Oh wait.. never mind, I didn't notice either and I'm supposed to be the most perceptive of individuals, with a reportedly staggering ability to notice even the tiniest of details. Funny that, when you couple it with all the deaths that occurred due purely to our vacuous ignorance and blatant unprofessionalism & raw stupidity.. Cherrio old boy.

The BBC series with Cumberbatch and Freeman has more intelligence, wit and pacing than the first of these Downey/Law films in its little finger - however...
by dasheight
I DO love Downey, Jr. and Law as Holmes and Watson; I just think they need a better script and director for these films, as the best scenes in the first was when they were simply talking in a room together.

Didn't care much for the first one. The first half of the film wasn't bad but the second half devolved into mindless action. If you want to see a good take on Sherlock Holmes, watch the BCC series.
-
Sure Doyle purists I understand. Purists for any property can't be pleased with anything but individualized mental projection but relative to most stuff the first one was smarter and more stylish than it seems to be given credit for. This trailer makes the movie look promising, though of course they couldn't help themselves and showed a good 20% more than they needed to. I hope this Costco sample approach to trailers bleeds out before I die but I won't hold my breath.
-
Just as a movie it was just good fun. As a Sherlock movie, it was still fun, and kind of expanded on the character in ways that made it even better. I mean, Grumble grumble...everything sucks...
-
The First was a good flick, enjoyed it.
-
Very disappointing. I was really hoping to see what he would be like. Other than that looks like more of the same, which is good for me since I really enjoyed the first one (a nice surprise).
-
I quite enjoyed the first and I don't give a fuck if you didn't.

I rented the first movie on DVD but never bothered watching it
by CanYouFlySucka
Like, I rented it for a euro (not even a dollar, a fucking euro) one night when I was in the DVD store and was pressed for something to rent along with the movie I really wanted (In the Loop if I rmemeber right) to make up a special offer they had on. I literally could not be bothered to put it in the DVD player. I just don't give a fuck about these movies.
-
The cuts are so quick, all I got are images, no impressions. The trailer to beat is Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, the cuts are quick there too but linger long enough to have an emotional impact. And, last time I swear, I HATE CLOWNS!

With all the talented British and Australian actors working in Hollywood
by seasider
They had to cast American actor, Robert Downey Jr as Britain's most famous detective. I like Downey but when I watched the last movie, I just felt like the Guy Ritchie was trying to turn Sherlock Holmes into a cross between Jack Sparrow and Gregory House. The trailer looks like more of the same. Kind of makes me wish they had just rebooted Young Sherlock Holmes and gone from there.

Eh, after the BBS series, this doesn't look so good anymore.
by Playkins
-
His accent is perfect, yes? Alot of Americans can not do an English accent, Paltrow for instance, but I don't know how they could have done better than Downey. The movie looks good, the first one was great. The drag thing is throwing me b/c that Jack and Jill trailer I am still tryiing to get over, one of the worst things I have seen.
-
The first film was... okay. Very stupid for a supposed "Sherlock Holmes" story, but it had charm. Looks like the first one.
-
Most American actors who pose as Brits tend to go for a very generic BBC commentator sipping tea kind of accent. Most Brits I know don't talk like that but accents are such a minor detail these days that most moviegoers overlook it.
-
After seeing the first movie, I can not think of any English actor doing it better.
-
I didn’t hate the first movie but I would rather have had a serious attempt at a real Sherlock Holmes film. Also, Moriarty isn’t very intimidating looking here. The actor playing him will have to do a good job of adding menace and gravitas to the role.
-
Don't get me wrong, I'm also a huge fan of the TV series, but there's been exactly ONE feature film to compare the series with, and merely one trailer for the second one. Not quite fair to talk about it in the plural, at least in that kind of context.

It looks like Guy Ritchie must have had a hell of a lot of fun
by Bass Ackwards
...getting to play around with the bigger budget the first film earned him, this looks like it'll be, at the least, a damn fine looking film. The trailer lacks the glorious money shots of Rachel McAdams that the first film had though.

The fact that this will probably outgross X-Men: First Class is a blight on the fucking planet
by Jaster
The first movie was lame as fucking shit. The detective work, you know, the entire core of the character, was a fucking afterthought to all the slow-mo ninja bullshit. It was boring and most offensively, STUPID! This looks even fucking worse.
-
Drag as a disguise never works. Its so obvious that its a man in make-up and a dress..why even go there? Do people acually see a man in drag and think, "gee thats a real woman" No...only in the movies. Poor judgement Holmes...poor judgement. Well, at least he admits its a bad disguise in the trailer, that lends some credibility.
-
I was just thinking how lucky we are that downy cleaned up his act.
-
You'd think she'd get higher billing than the Dragon Tattoo chick. Still, a fine trailer. Holmes in drag is a cheap gag, true, but Holmes was always a master of disguise, and I have to admit I chuckled.
-
*drops mike*
-
I understand hating on something like Transformers, even though I can personally enjoy something like that, but the first Holmes movie was wildly entertaining and this one looks to be as well.

Tallyho, old chaps, and mind the near-constant explosions and tomfoolery! I'm not sure there was one single legitimate explosion in the entire run of Jeremy Brett's Holmes series. How stupid are people that we need constant noisy spectacle just to watch a story?

Was one of its biggest champions here. But I got to admit, this new trailer doesn't really do much for me.

One thing though, never got people bitching about the fighting
by Continentalop
Not only was Holmes a fighter in the books, proficient in boxing, fencing, single stick and baritsu (either a misspelling of jujitsu or Bartitsu) but the late Victorian age and Edwardian age was a Golden Age in martial arts and combat sports. It nice to see a movie touch upon that angle for once.

It's bad enough that Downey has been aping Johnny Depp's take on a Bruckheimer film for the last Holmes picture....
by Bobo_Vision
....now he's even started to wear eye make-up. For Shame, Robert Downey....for shame.
-
this looks fucking horrible.
-
Holmes isn't portrayed in these films merely as a knowledgable experienced fighter, he's portrayed as a full out action hero, and I think that's the aspect that irks people.
-
this second one should go straight to VHS!

southtexasmoviefreak , well played, the whole thing.
by Stereotypical Evil Archer
I shall leave this farce of yours, humbled, as I sip my Glenfiddich 21 as greedily as you drink your Dew. Here's to you old chap. Perhaps tomorrow I will witness the teaser trailer that you haven't seen which is destined to show us nothing of import.
-
you guys in the south big fans of breaking bad at all?
-
Superb production values and good acting and serviceable script. I'm looking forward to this one a tad.
-
However much hate this garners, I happened to think that RDJ loading a new round into the rifle being held by his opponent, seemingly flipping it out of his hands and into Watson's now prepped and ready to fire, who proceeds to take a well-aimed shot looked fucking fantastic! Many visual tricks have been misused in this and many other artistic mediums, but I don't think they should be thrown away for everyone else. For all his faults, Guy Ritchie has certainly proven himself to have a very keen and original eye for innovative action and I stand by him on that. If any of you liked the far more adventurous update of Star Trek and are now bashing Holmes for attempting nearly the same thing, shame on you! I'm not happy about a lot of things with the first film and this trailer. But Ritchie and his team put in the work and whatever happens, this looks like it will be a hell of a lot of fun to love and hate. It's a fucking movie!

WTF is Nordling talking about, "friendship"..."taken to an entirely new level"..."ahem"?
by MC-909
I was expecting a buttfuck scene, or at least a short clip of them snowballing one another. Instead we see RDJ in a dress and...that's it. That's not gay, that's just lame. I don't know if Nordling is admittedly gay already but if he's straight and he watched that trailer and came back with, now I'm just paraphrasing here, "they're even faggier than before!", then I hope he'll realize someday that when you think you see gay shit where there is no gay shit, you're probably gay. I get the whole homo-subtext with Holmes and Watson, but there was nothing in this trailer that implied it or even suggested it, at least not any more so than the first. Oh yeah, the trailer. I forgot. Uhh...I don't like CGI cities.
-
as if the studios told him to make it cheesier and lamer and more watered down for the mouth breathing masses. So it blends in with all the other shitty movies we're being subjected to.
-
Otherwise, there is less slow motion.
-
The only thing Ritchie got right is the dark, foggy, smoggy industrial Doyle-Dickens-like London of the late 1800s - a metropolis at the height of empire. BUT... they have replaced Holmes' detecting with action and fighting and speed ramping. Jeremy Brett's Holmes from the old Granada series was a far more accurate to Doyle's original vision, even if Richie does a better job showing off Holmes' boxing prowess. The fun revisionist Holmes that recently aired on the BBC even does a better job illustrating Homes' detecting abilities. These films have more in common with Michael Bay than Arthur Conan Doyle.

And Noomi Rapace is fiercely sexy. Hope her accent is dirty.
by stu_pickles
-
This is Sherlock Holmes in name only. Both the first film and this sequel were made for the brainless masses, those who think Transformers is quality cinema. To see Sherlock Holmes done properly, re-watch the Jeremy Brett show on DVD or any Holmes production starring Peter Cushing or the recent BBC series starring Benedict Cumberbatch. Much more entertaining and true to the spirit of Conan Doyle's immortal character.
-
If Guy Ritchie is directing, it'll suck. Sorry, but you know it's true.
-
Especially the glimpse of them spooning w Downey topless. Gay
-
There was enough detective work in the first one to pass it off as Sherlock Holmes. You're not going to get a huge budget Hollywood movie with big name stars and director without action in it. Especially with Pirates of the Carribean films raking in a billion dollars each.
-
How is this Sherlock Holmes? In name and setting only - otherwise, there is no resemblance. That the trailer puts so much emphasis on chaotic blow-up action suggests there isn't much to the story at all. There certainly wasn't to the first film. Only reason I'd care to see this: Stephen Fry as Mycroft Holmes. Now HE would have made an interesting Sherlock.
-
I'm predicting another world class score that will be tragically overlooked... Although the first one was nominated, I think it deserved the win that year. The main theme was significantly unique.
-
The whole running through the woods while trees explode bit looks an awful lot like something out of Part 1 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
-
...to further advertise the sheer excellence of the new BBC series starring Benedict Cumberbatch. When I first heard that a show was based on a modern-day Holmes, frankly I thought that was an idiotic idea, almost as bad as Ritchie's cynical attempt to turn him into an Indiana Jones style action hero. I was so wrong. Each of the three episodes is feature-length and supremely entertaining, and to be honest I've never enjoyed any incarnation of the character more than Cumberbatch's arrogant and borderline sociopathic take on the role. If anyone has an interest in Sherlock Holmes that has not yet seen this modern take on the character, let me add another voice to the choir and tell you that it's exceptionally well-written, tautly directed, and flawlessly acted. I cannot wait for season 2. And yes, this sequel looks even worse than the utterly mediocre original. Both Law and Downey are wasted.
-
it might say a lot that I don't remember the first one enough to remember if she died or not but I do remember she was the only reason I watched the first one...also is Guy Ritchie directing this?? wait...let me check IMDB...one sec...I see Guy is indeed directing this and I also see Rachel is credited...ok then carry on I'll pay for a ticket
-
damn it...wanted to bitch but I can't

Wait... no it's not. Didn't WILD WILD WEST teach us that?

They should give Guy Ritchie the Green Lantern sequel.
by Julius Dithers
His rewrites and his kineticism would be a step in the right direction.
-
Bleh, Nordling's right, Sherlock destroys this. It's an extremely intellectual and esoteric character, leave it to Brits (and I don't think Guy Ritchie counts anymore [see RocknRolla]) And does anyone else get a real "Wild Wild West" vibe from this trailer as well?
-
Boooo Hoooo Hollywood didn't make it like the books. Waaaaaaaah waaaaaaaaah they made a family film that isn't intellectually challenging. Give me a fucking break. The script for the first one was pretty smart.
-
Can't beat the dignity and aloofness of Basil Rathbone.

by loafroaster
It was alright.

For that shitty regular speed, slowmotion jump every action director now insists on using. If I were a fight choreographer I'd quit on the spot when I saw that. Maybe if you filmed coherently I wouldn't need every fuckin' impact slowed down for me.

GREAT episode one. SHIT episode two. Good to great episode three, with the shittiest and stupidest ending imaginable.

Replace Downey with Depp and this could be the next POTC
by performingmonkey
Just like with the first movie they're selling this POTC stylie, and Richie even ripped plenty of Verbinski for his Holmes. The score would have worked as a POTC score, the performances would have sit right in that series and the colour palette was a near as damn ripoff too. Smart? You bet.
-
Loved the first one and Guy Richie's work in general. It's a go when it comes out!
-
More stylish, yes. But more 21st century stylish, whereas most people who are into Holmes are likely to be more in favour of Victorian/Edwardian stylish.
-
v'sheal nails it above. The first one is great, and the ending of the final episode (and the Moriarty character in general) is a train wreck. The idea that there is a mastermind behind the criminal world that is so careful that hardly anyone even knows he exists is totally destroyed by revealing him to be a flamboyant, monologuing sap who behaves as if he's unhinged and employs brute, unimaginative methods for dealing with Holmes. It was pretty obvious that they were inspired by Ledger's Joker, which is moronic because the Joker isn't a secretive character... He's a grandstanding, attention-grabbing freak. I cant even give the series that much credit for the modern day take, since "House" and Hugh Laurie already provided the blueprints for the modern day asshole/sociopathic Holmes. "Sherlock" just put it back into a detective show again. Still, there's a lot to recommend about the series... But I'd place money on the chances that this film will totally own the BBC series when it comes to Moriarty.
-
You're quite mistaken: http://youtu.be/OjKXFBkNE10
-
I know the first one made a ton of money...but did anyone actually enjoy it? I thought it was dreadful and a real black mark on the legacy of Sherlock Holmes. I guess I don't have a problem with the movies as much as I have a problem with the fact that kids are seeing these and thinking this is how Sherlock is portrayed in the original stories. Not for me, though...I'll be skipping this sequel. Fool me once....
-
yes i did.generalizing much?
-
I agree. I'd follow her anywhere. Rooney who?
-
Though Conan Doyle was a believer in the supernatural, Holmes has always been a rationalist hero. So I hope they maintain the no supernatural rule of the 1st film.
-
God, this is depressing. Obviously, a shitload of money has been spent yet again on actors, production design, special effects...everything but a good script. Which is the whole POINT of any movie--but particularly a Sherlock Holmes Mystery. I got suckered into the first one and was bored to tears. This looks even worse. I'll rent the Seven Percent Solution, Murder by Decree. Shit I'll even recent Sherlock Holmes Smarter Brother before I see this dreck.
-
People said that about the first one before it came out. Like it or not, it wasn't that.

If you think that is really Moriarty at the end of BBC series 1
by proevad
then i feel so fucking sorry for you. Idiots.
-
I aim to make it even more shitty than the first and it will still be a poor mans Wild Wild West, even though Wild WIld West was also shit.
-
you mean because the writers realised everyone hated the prick andhave decided to write him off as an imposter? yeah that sounds about right. bbc holmes is still utter shit.... and so is doctor who. just had to say it again because its true.
-
I've seen that clip before, and while I was a fan of the Jeremy Brett version, it had a trapped in amber feel. Yes, it shows Holmes fighting, but it is a dated style, based on modern preconceptions of how Victorian's fought instead of showing how vicious it could be, especially street brawls. Sherlock Holmes might have known the Marquess of Queensberry rules, but I wouldn't doubt he is also versed in bare-knuckled pugilism and London Prize Ring rules (and probably even Figg's Fighting). Richie's version might be more stylized in regards to fighting(personally, I wish it was shot a little more realistically) but I also think it is more accurate for the era. This was after all the age of "Rough & Tumble", Catch-as-catch can, mixed fights, defense dans la rue, Les Apaches, Monk Eastman, the Five Points Gang, Edward William Barton-Wright, Kano Jigoro and Jean Joseph Renaud.
-
This isn't the first time Holmes has dressed up like a woman on screen. Seeing Downey in drag immediately reminded me of Eille Norwood, the great Holmes of the silent era. Norwood disguised himself as a woman in the Greek Interpreter. I couldn't find a screen capture anywhere online, so I had to go back into my personal Holmes library for corroboration. If anyone is interested in tracking it down, you can find the picture on page 46 of the Sherlock Holmes Scrapbook, edited by Peter Haining and published in 1974 by Clarkson N. Potter, Inc. Ritchie's Holmes may not be to everyone's taste, but it's hard to seriously argue that it's the worst version ever put on film. Some of my candidates...the Crucifer of Blood with Charlton Heston...Sherlock Holmes in New York with Roger Moore...a Study in Scarlet with Reginald Owen...Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Silk Stocking with Rupert Everett...Sherlock: a Case of Evil with James D'Arcy...ANY of the Hallmark adaptations with Matt Frewer (Max Headroom!)... All of them are terrible as Holmes adaptations. But I enjoyed them all as curiosities. Let's not be so easily offended! Or prone to hyperbole... Although, who am I to argue with someone else's honest opinion?

I was hoping for the "wierd Doctor who character" Moriarty to be fake
by David Cloverfield
Then again a showrunner who compromises his vision of a character becouse of online bitching I can't respect that much. I think a "fans can go fuck themselves, they don't know what they want" is the healthiest approach every "professional creative" should take.
-
The first was pretty boring. I don't want to say I HATED it (thought RDJ/ Jude Law were fun, the setpieces were nice)-but overall, it was fairly boring. (I went to sleep twice. NOT a good sign.Transformers 2 put me under a good 6 times, so you get the idea).I will def. be DVD-ing this. And mind you, the ONLY draw for me is Jared Harris. That man is badass.
-
Well, the boxing part from Bartitsu is as far as is known very much an adaptation of "scientific boxing". And while you say that fighting could be more vicious, sure - but still Victorian/Edwardian vicious and not Jackie Chan vicious, which is what a lot of the action - up to and including karate-style chops etc. So I don't think at all it is more accurate for the era - it's more in the style of a modern audience would expect in a fight scene. Plus the levers and throws of Ju-Jitsu and Judo are all good and fine when it's up close and personal, but in the Brett scene, the obviously drunk ruffian never gets close enough that Holmes would actually need to employ them. The only thing he might have added is some Savate kicks, as he didn't use a cane. But then again, he knew the guy wasn't a threat and had every intention to show him some "come il faut" fighting, rather than some back alley brawling. As for the "modern preconceptions", Brett was infamous for correcting the production team as to what Holmes would or would not do, having basically inhaled Doyle's writings. And given that we have remarks from Holmes such as "the gentleman upon whose front teeth I have barked my knuckles", and have references to him as a trained boxer, it seems that contemporary boxing range (which is quite a bit further out than modern sports boxing) is precisely as close as he lets people come when he has a choice.

loL YOU GUYS NEED TO CHILL THE FUCK OUT
by SIR ARTHUR KING OF THE BRITAIN
If they made Sherlock Holmes a boring piece of shit like you wanted, there wouldn't have even been a sequel. plus madonnas gotta eat
-
Victorian period. There is no replacement. Its creepy. Now if we can just trim down the 'splosions, I'll be a very happy chappy.
-
I thought it was witty, fun and there was good chemistry between the two main characters. And for Gods fucking sake, can we have one mention of these films without having to hear about the fucking BBC series which has to be one of the most overrated tv series in the history of the fucking Earth. It's mediocre at best. I'd rather see the first of these Sherlock Holmes movies 5 times in a row than try to sit through that BBC shit again.
-
But then how do you put deduction in a trailer without making the film look FUCKING BORING. It's Sherlock Holmes. Let's assume there's plenty of that. Plus, it would seem, lots of things blowing up. Looks good to me.
-
I dont want Sherlock Holmes the action movie. Why is he fighting so much? For gods sake.
-
Drop off/pick up at the airport. Helping move. Loaning money.
-
anyway yeah, McG was the first time i saw that happen in the Charlie's Angels movies. at the time it felt like the poor man's "bullet time". but Snyder has definately used it to death so i can see why he's blamed. lol
