Sherlock Holmes Update

Sherlock Holmes Sequel In The Pipeline? - Contactmusic News: "Movie bosses are reportedly planning a second SHERLOCK HOLMES film - three months before the first instalment hits theatres.

Robert Downey Jr. stars as the legendary detective in Guy Ritchie's new movie, which is set for release in December (09). Brit actor Jude Law is taking on the role of Dr. Watson.
The film's epic trailer has received mixed reviews by critics - but movie chiefs are busily rounding up writers to draft a script for a follow-up to the Arthur Conan Doyle tale, according to Hollywood Reporter's RiskyBiz blog."

I took a look at the trailer. I suppose it's because I'm a traditionalist when it comes to Holmes, but it looks pretty sensationalized, relying on action instead of brain power.

Still, I suppose anything that might get people to think about the character and perhaps read the stories and novels is a good thing.
