    I work at a movie theater, and I saw guest looked really mad when he walked out to Holmes and Watson, so I asked him what he thought of the movie. He said, “that was the most fucking expensive nap I’ve ever taken.”

    Holmes and Watson was so bad that my local movie theater has a screenshot of the Rotten Tomatoes page for that movie printed out and hanging next to the ticket counter. When I went to see Into the Spider-Verse, they were showing it to people who were coming to see Holmes and Watson and asking if they still wanted to see it.

      A seemlier thing happened to me too. My roommate and I went to see Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse as well, and we had to wait in line for our tickets, because a guy who came out of the theater was demanding to get his money back from seeing Holmes and Watson.

He wanted to see this. He told me who was in it and my heart sank. I tried to sell him on bumble bee and aquaman but they were long and the weather was getting bad. I was getting sick thinking id have to sit thru this but the weather got worse so we didint go. Phew! Thank God for bad weather! So we wound up staying home and watching the cocodile hunter movie and dealing with mice coming in from the cold and making sure the cat didint get to the traps before the mice did. Ugh As a fan of the author, im soo glad i didint go, i know id have thrown a fit watching this.

    Here's a thought: What if, instead of the play-it-straight Sherlock Holmes as Brad suggested, they had a play-it-straight Watson? One where he's the only one who realizes that Will Ferrell Sherlock is insane? For that matter, at least have the movie self-aware enough that it acknowledges in some fashion that Will Ferrell playing Sherlock Holmes is a stupid idea? "That's not how I pictured him looking" or Watson screaming "This? You'd put the fate of England in the hands of... of... this man?" or something like that.

    I feel like anything lighter than dramas or so-called "dark comedy" (ie, comedy movies that are ashamed of being comedies and want to be dramas) is so deadly afraid of taking itself too seriously, so they don't take themselves seriously AT ALL, and the result is these comedies who have so little respect for themselves that they come out as these limp squibs of... not even first draft ideas, more like napkin doodles of what an idea COULD be.
    I've heard from older performers I've been around, without any sort of precedent, that they inherently knew that they had to take a comedy script seriously. Somewhere along the line, we just kind of... forgot how to do comedy. Now it's just wannabe dramas or moderately funny people farting around.

    Holmes and Watson had the feel of a Friedberg and Seltzer movie, which are some of the worst comedies ever put to film. The jokes felt like they were written for other movies and just shoehorned into this story because they didn't fit AT ALL into this script.

  • @davidjames579
    @davidjames579 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    You guys got a different pre credits scene to the International release. In ours, adult Watson is planning to commit suicide by jumping off a roof (!). Holmes stood underneath tries to talk him out of it, and Watson keeps misinterpreting him to comedic effect (well that's the plan). Then Watson lands on and destroys Holmes' prize marrow. Cut to credits! It also means the un-cry scene later comes out of nowhere. I think your's was better (relatively speaking).
    Also, you do realise Hugh Laurie's a comedian?
