Film School Rejects: Sherlock Holmes: Guy Ritchie, Cast Celebrate Start of Production

    I'm not too excited about the director, but the cast looks amazing, I can't wait too see how the film will turn out to be! Robert Downey Jr. was the best actor they could have gotten for Holmes, and Rachel is an interesting choice as well.

    I'm indifferent about Guy as the director, but I'm super excited to see the finished product! They can do no wrong with Robert Downey Jr. as Holmes, he's amazing, and he looks perfect for the part.

    Rachel is also a very interesting choice for Irene.

    Meepo, you are an idiot. RDJ looks nothing like sherlock holmes.

    Yes, Meepo, Troy is a close friend of Mr. Holmes; he speaks from experience.

    (In other words: Troy, my dear, Holmes is a fictional character. I seem to recall a certain variety in the physical features of the actors who have portrayed him throughout the years, from Rathbone and Cushing to Brett and Everett-- and even Michael Caine. Mr. Downey's intelligence, sharp focus, and energy will serve him well in this role.)

    Ask a random sampling of people to draw a cartoon of Sherlock Holmes, and all the cartoons will look about the same, and none of them will look like Robert Downey. Also, he's the shortest man in the photo. And then there's the hair. And the eyes. And the accent. And I would say his performances aren't so sharply focused as, so to speak, pulling focus. But, anyway.

    As much as I love RDJ, he's not right for the role of the Great Detective. Just my opnion!

    The girl playing Irene is gorgeous---I wish I looked like her! Perfect cast choosing right there.

    They'd better do a half-decent job on this thing, or I will tear my hair out! The last thing we need is Holmes, Watson, & Co. put to shame >:P

    I don't think the girl is so pretty, although I think that it's awsome getting Iron Man to fight Moriarty who I at least hope is in the movie. Of all the people to pick I think he will do fine.

    ..hey now we know how Iron Man got so rich. He was solving alot of mysterys for kings and got rich from that!! It's all so clear now. (I'm just kidding. I'm a fan of Sherlock because his methods do make since and a fan of Iron Man because they didn't act stuped making the movie.)

    I hope this movie does great and they do another real movie and don't make fun of Sherlock (if you realy could find a way to make fun of Sherlock Holmes of all people). Sherlock fan,
