Quick post of epic squee
We saw Star Trek tonight, and OMFG I DON'T THINK I CAN CONTAIN THE HAPPY. *splodes* It was that good. For me. Yes. There will be coherence later, probably.
And because this post is an entirely hate-and-cynicism-free-zone, I also just saw a trailer on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
apocalypsos's journal for the upcoming Robert-Downey-Jr-Holmes movie, and AHAHAHA IT'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH FUN. Mysticism! Holmes in sarcasm-mode! Watson going "And you keep stealing my clothes!" XD I have to wait until Christmas for this? Come on!
Also, can they make more Star Trek movies with these actors now plz? Their chemistry = MAJOR WIN.
I think I've used up my capslock allotment for the next three years. Time for bed!

So, I went to see it with a trio of non-Holmesian friends, and when Spock had got about as far as "When you have eliminated..." I curled up in a ball and shoved a hand over my mouth to quench the overpowering squee that would have had the ENTIRE theater staring at me elsewise, and had to stage whisper "It's a Sherlock Holmes line!" at my companions, and was thus the subject of much 'oh, you crazy fangirl'-type eyerolling XD
Their chemisty... ummm, YES. YES YES YES. It's been near two weeks and I am no nearer coherent yet!
Oooo, is the trailer out? *goes off to watch*

Watson: Holmes, does your depravity know no bounds?
Holmes: No.
My mental context:
Holmes: Watson, old chap, I've rather a busy schedule in this movie, but somewhere between saving the universe and evading the clutches of the dread Mrs. Norton, it looks like I've got an hour or two free. D'you fancy a bit of buggery before you go off and leave me for the stifling clutches of wedlock?
Watson: Holmes, does your depravity know no bounds?
Holmes: No.
Watson: *ponders* Oh. All right, then, no time to waste!
*our view is instantly obscured by a haze of flying jackets, hats, collars, cuffs, cravats, shirts, plackets, waiscoats, braces, trousers, shoes, socks and all the other goodness knows what that the respectable Victorian male was sure to be wearing at all times. Plus a stethoscope, two revolvers, a pair of handcuffs (which are quickly snatched back by a very pale hand with very long fingers), a jemmy and lockpicks, a notepad and copiously leaking fountain pen, a silver cigarette case, and, inexplicably, three live white mice. And Holmes' stubble.*
When life gives you Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, make lemonade. Or, better yet, make slash! And I'm gonna stop sillying all over your journal now :)

I can't express the delight this scenario gave me. Gives me. Will give me forever XD Especially the handcuff bit.

I feel exactly the same way, and you put it better than I could have.

Saw it on mother's day but then I've been a fan of the original series since I was 5 years old xD
I also like Voyager though.
And I just saw the new Holmes trailer xD
Watson looked soooooo good. And their scenes together? Awesome!
I might just get the DVD when it's in the stores :D
About more movies, I hear they've had Paramounts permission to make more in March already. If this is going to be a commercial success (and I bet that it's gonna be!!!) they'll do AT LEAST one more.
:D

The trailer! Bwee! They are going to have awesome chemistry.

KirkSpockilicious needs to be a real word! I hereby make it so.

And I agree about the Holmes trailer. It's not meant to be canon... it's just going to be a fun movie. I can't wait!

I get really put down by the negativity in regards to the new Holmes movie. For heaven's sake, it's not supposed to be (ever going to be) perfect canon. Just enjoy it for what it is O_o And if that kind of movie isn't your thing, okay, that's entirely understandable - but Without a Clue was far from canon and everyone seems to think that's okay.
no subject
But then again, with all due respect, Basil Rathbone's movies had all kinds of silly business as well (Watson being made to seem stupid being the worst, but one also had Holmes encouraging people to buy warbonds, or some such...=3=;). And that's okay as well
even thought it's given a lot of people the wrong impression, but what can you do..., since it's just...a reflection of that time and how movies were made, I suppose.or I might just be spouting nonsense, sorry. :'Dno subject

*nod* And that's it exactly. There's room for interpretations like that as well. :)

I saw the Downey-Holmes trailer last night, and I was kind of like O_O because I thought you might not like it, so I'm glad that you think it will be fun, because I do, too!
*And btw, the comments on this post have me rolling on the floor. I love your f'list!*

Daddy would LOVE Star Trek. He should see it at the theatre. I know he'd love it! If you want to go with somebody and he doesn't want to, we'll go with you sometime :3
The Holmes trailer looks like is going to be very funny, and like... kind of like Without a Clue was, where the characters aren't really THEM obviously, but they're wonderful homages and have great chemistry and are made of squee. Only with more slash *giggles*

Yes, really!

I have not actually watched the trailer--do we get to know why? Is this so Holmes can wear them for disguising purposes? Or for sentimental purposes. Or not to wear at all, but merely to result in a Watson unburdened by excessive clothing. One does wonder.
