When I first saw it, I was like "WHAT THE HELL?!" Even thought I'm not a HUGE fan of the series of books, I DO know that they're mysteries in which Sherlock Holmes uses simple reasoning and deduction to figure out what happened.

When I saw this trailer, I saw a generic action movie, which is probably what they were going for, seeing as the general movie-going audience won't go see something unless there's an explostion, jumping long distances, or Will Smith.

But then again, this is just a trailer. Maybe my assumption will be wrong and it will be more psychological, kind of like Watchmen and it's trailer.

Anyway, what do you think?

A famous character from a series of books that EVERYONE HAS HEARD OF except you, apparently.

Don't listen to anyone when they tell you. That way you can brag about the fact that you're the only person in the world who doesn't know.

It looks Steampunky, so I'll probably go see it.

If they don't give Sherlock Holmes his deerstalker hat back, than I might not be interested.

I'm glad they got rid of the deerstalker. They're specifically making this film in a way that challenges traditional views of Sherlock in the past. For example, no longer is he wearing a deerstalker.

"(Guy) Ritchie (Director) wanted his Holmes' costume to play against the popular image of the character, joking "there is only one person in history who ever wore" a deerstalker. Downey selected the character's fedora. "

I, for one, will view this film with open arms and a rock-hard boner for Robert Downey.
