The new Sherlock hilmes movie is the same as the baasil rathbone ones from the thirties/forties[I guess/approx?]

except that Robert downey is better version of the cjaracter

[scamp/ultracharismatic audience proxy{code, i guess, for 'protagonist??'}]

On turner classic movie they did ‘holmes for the holidys marathon with a bunch of homes movies w all the diff actors,etc’ and I watched a number of the rathbone ones and though rathbone is a passable holm, he brings nothing to it and his performance is ‘blown the fuck away for accuracy’ by main man j. brett

~i typed this one in word foist so with the execption of the omst integralest ones[which I fixed back myway myself ‘for dramatic effect’/it couldnt figure out what myword coulda been] it tried to ‘fix’’’ my spellings/put a shit load of capitals all over the damn place~

Both Hollywood current-tiome adaptiaions of a classic british character, but hwere basil rathbone ones attended to hollyowod standard in whatever ways suited Hollywood convention at the time[established actorstar{common to downey-ritchie 2k9 }, possibly notions of standard modernist certainty of intellectual superiority in realationship bw holmes n Watson{bc doc’s p dumb}, FIGHTING WORLD WARTWO]/hammer film peter cushing holmes feat chrs lee as dracula bascerville was part of mid 20thcent remaking of culture[hammer is unfairly ‘unculted’ i personally believe and suggest]

Whereas, in the jude macadams version{INCLUDE PHOTOT OF RACHEL MACSADM FOR APPEAL} the relationship bw holmes and Watson is inter and co dependednt in an interesting way, they matter of factly wallow in their shared/paired functionality, this ins because holmes ifs the audiences acces to theis movie, as opposed to the texts/definitive jemeemy brett telveivson verswion of them’s Watson-access. Acces is even subtly mocked in the brief reference to watsons 'old notebooks' which of course comprise the in-universe explanation for the stroies themeselves [good job by the waty guyritchie for makin exactly the movie you wanted to, that speaks to signifiactnt maturity as a artist and its cool that you made your Sherlock holmes wintertime blockbuster series correctly; i liked it a lt because everthing looked and acted and sounded right for a 2k9/10 reboot/brand of holmes in thevein of batman/jonny bond/christian’john the machinist’ connor/clash of the titans/aliens 2:this time the aliens are cat people whose god blesses big macs w magicseeds 3D/ironman triopic thinduer].

Here is how some of those referecnes to other movies pertain:

Tropic thunder i watched again the night before iwatched holmes and I saw clearly: this was ‘generic big Hollywood spectacle action setpeice based movie chassis’ with ‘hollywoodmetacomedy/pedigreed[/’authentic{to roles assigned to them}’] actors’ bolted elegantly atop , to effective and correct effect , ‘it worked’ ,

Avatatr made it ‘safe to have a big ol’ spectacle and tahts enough, if you just get that right enough and do exactly what you set out to’ again [after 9/22 I JUST COULNDT STIOP ________________ FOR LIKE THIIIS LONG/]

Jamwes bond is another iconic w various versions w particular characters, but where bonds icon is infilm and thus each reboot/brand redefines for a generation , holmes is based in books, therefore there is a definitive version, therefore

this 2k___rebrand[just as many of its analogues] chooses to iterate on a theme presesnt in cultural perceptions of the character[house –and wilsoon relevision interaction/interesting and heartening softening of ‘traditional masculinity’/unconcern w theoretical/conceivable perceptions[/invitation thereof{becasue the internet is for whatever you want it to be fore, those who interact with fictoinal figures personally}]of something less than insecurelyovercertain heterosexuality[via close positive interdependent connection between two men]

[seen hree:normal people interacting normally{the least ironic thing to say(via sensitivity/earnesty/notions of conveying internality in presentation)}]

oh its funny that that was the point[s] I ended up addressing there becasue my next one is

tony downy junior ‘s holmes is literally batman [via always planning, espec. splitsecond midcombat , / THE WORLD’S GREATEST DETECTIVE GENIUSWHO HAS DIFFICULTY CONNECTIN W HUMANITY AND WHO IS ONLY FUCNTIONAL/COMPLETE W THE HELP OF LOVED ONES{obv tragedy of batman is in constant denial of love from him, holmes has no such problem, his loved ones are consistently visually protected in thisfilm(more on this latre)}/gleefully irreverent ‘gay-culturalperceptions/subtexts{dependin on who you ask}’]

protection of companions and its relation to respect for source material[via ironman{feat ghostface rourke}(because that was aonther rdj one what possessed said respect)]: when the thing blows up a bunch and it looks like Watson is dead, before the audience and therefore holmes can move on to the next part of the story the friendlycop literally tells us all that Watson is in fact alive

during fightscene on londonbridge rachelmacccdms gets pushed off as inception point to fighting: there is a token fight schene but it is halfhearted and brief until downety takes a gzander down and sees her safe on a scaffold, at which point the thing really kicks in

an issue regarding drugs and forwardthinking i liked how there were nonchalant subtle background cocaine references['for eye surgery,' sniffin somethin upon wkin up in prison], this too speaks to our current nonchalance and adultness withregardto formerly iffy/taboo things[GENERATION YINTERNET BEEP BOOP]

anyway heres the payoff to my title: in view of that this holmes movie is so much of this time period's hollywood/assorted media in particular while still being constructed in such a way as to feel like a holems story should[these are significantly-better-than-acceptable takes on these characters that happen to exist in a filmuniverse in which big action setpeices routinely occur; [elegant capsule image of isusue:]Watson is still there to carry and use a gun for holmes, but he also is responsible for constantly reminding holmes to carry his own gun, which he seems not to interact with mentally on the same level as his other tools, firing it wildly and all in a frenzy the one time he has it with him], it cna be said that[my title]
