* LA DERNIÈRE ENQUÊTE DE SHERLOCK HOLMES / FRENCH / 15M / 2010

— The English translation of this short is The Last Investigation of Sherlock Holmes. — Vincent Aubert as Sherlock Holmes and Michel Moulin as John Watson. — Directed by Gaël Grobéty and distributed by Monster Entertainment. — Favorite Quality: I really liked the premise; I think the reasons why I was upset were intentional.

This short film is evil; it is wicked! I’ve never watched something done so well that elicited visceral rage inside me—I almost could not finish watching it. This short is not bad, but it made me want to pull my teeth out at some parts, and the ending had me so frustrated I needed to take a twenty-minute break before finishing it. Alright, the film. I think the most significant critique of this short is the camera work; though I will be gentle as this was a lower-budget project, there were times when the screen was shaking just a little too much. It wasn’t enough to give me proper motion sickness, but it was well on its way especially combined with the graininess of the film. This movie almost gave me everything I wanted in an aged Sherlock and John: two retired older men who raise bees and go camping together. I don’t know what I did to deserve this, but it gave me so much and then took it away in a confusing and upsetting story that continued to raise the tension throughout. The notes that I took while watching this short go from soft fondness to increasing confusion, to uncontrollable rage, and then to a feeling of utter heartbreak. When I talk about how much this short film upset me, I am doing it in a way explaining that I am upset with what happened but not with the film itself. While I do feel like the characters were out-of-character, that was also part of the story, so I don’t want to be nit-picky in that regard, but I also think that they knew what they were doing while writing this piece. The English subtitles were also not good, they were part of the premiere screening, but they don’t flow well and often disappear and reappear for the same scene. Aesthetically this movie is dull, but it takes place in the forest, so you can’t expect it to be visually breathtaking. I don’t want to watch this short again, I’m not sure I want to recommend it, but that also feels somewhat contradictory when I say that it isn’t a bad adaptation of Sherlock Holmes. It’s just a little frustrating, and it left me feeling more upset than excited about another piece of media completed. I love retired John and Sherlock, but I don’t think this film is for me.

THE BLUE CARBUNCLE, part one - almost all dialogue taken directly from the story, which I find to be so charmingly written! This takes place right after the events of Christmas Eve. If Holmes guessing presents makes you laugh, then let me also recommend you watch this 1991 SNL sketch (it IS gay)

(this is the Watson's Sketchbook series!)

OH EDITED TO ADD that I totally stole Sidney Paget's wonderful posing for the first panel, it's one of my favorite Holmes illustrations:

sherlock: vc era cirurgião, pq vc não volta pra essa carreira?

watson: eu não conseguiria operar uma pessoa já q tenho traumas e minhas mãos tremem

sherlock: ...

sherlock: vc está tirando estilhaços do meu pé e me dando pontos

game of deduction

john’s dick game has to be insane because how else would he be able to pull off asking his boss out immediately after falling asleep on the job, almost getting her killed by involving her in a case with a smuggling ring and then still date her for a considerable amount of time afterwards????

Stalking John Watsons twitter and saw this and wanted to share for the people who have not seen this

HE DID THE THING!!

One of my favorite things about the original ACD Sherlock Holmes books is how much attention to detail Watson puts into everything, but ESPECIALLY with Holmes, literally on the first few days of living with Holmes, Watson was so intrigued by his flatmate to the point he wrote down everything he learned from about him. Until of course throwing it into a fire and disregarding it because he felt it was useless and still did not understand him. But still, these smalls things are usually glossed over by other medias, and although it was not mentioned in the podcast, it makes sense for him to say something about it on twitter.

The fact they wrote almost word for word what he writes in the book. I can die happy now.

This is how its written in the Original Work 👇

Cannot believe some of you are NOW realizing Watson is the cutest and most awkward man to ever walk the face of the earth ! Love him and his curiosity

Thinking about…John and Sherlock…flying out of a window…hand in hand…hovering over the great city of London…gently removing the roofs… peeping in at the queer things which are going on…

I don't care if they never kissed- Johnlock could not be more canon.

Granda Holmes - Yeah Rock His Shit

What a lovely goofy scene.

Sherlock, idk who you got those fighting moves from but it's giving Jerry Lewis.

The crowd oohing and ahhing will be the death of me.

(The man Sherlock is beating up is a creep who fully believes that when women say "no" they mean "yes". So he is doing God's work here.)

Also, Sherlock bragging to his favorite and most patient doctor Watson is adorable.

<3, Cassie

{That's all, but I'm back from the (partial) dead and will be posting my own stuff more in the future! (we hope)}

discovered the Sherlock and Co. podcast randomly on Spotify yesterday (hey sometimes the algorithm’s not so bad) and my god is it beautiful perfect everything to me, I mean Sherlock is my one definite special interest so it’s hard to go wrong with anything even adjacent to that, but when you then have Sherlock pretty immediately list all his diagnoses importantly including ADHD and Autism I was pretty much as happy as I can be, literally spent a good chunk of my final year of uni being frustrated at all the ways people elect to just not acknowledge Sherlock’s autism/variable diagnoses nor sexuality despite like clearly making choices about how to portray him/writing some very undeniable traits for him, so I don’t think I can even express just how much I enjoy canonically autistic Sherlock

John: Can you at least try to see this from my perspective?

Sherlock: *crouches down*

Mariana: *squats*

John: I hate you both
