  1. I thoroughly enjoyed the threequel!
  2. Would you accept if Mr. Holmes had a relationship before Mrs. Holmes came into the picture that ended with him being a dad even if he didn't know until after he married Mrs. Holmes? Oh, sure, why the heck not? :lol: I suspect by the time we finally learn the answer, I'll be so happy to just see the show again, I'll accept almost anything. Except the slickback hair, I will protest that to my grave........ :P Agreed!
  3. corporate world
  4. awesomeee, keep em coming!
  5. to me, twitter post looks ok, if it's fan art, people would be happy to see it
  6. Same here! I loved those Hornblower movies. I liked Ioan Gruffyd in the Fantastic Four movies, too. He's in a new TV show here in the States, but alas, it's an obvious rip-off of Sherlock, and I find it irritating more than enjoyable. I still watch it sometimes, though, just because he's in it. riiight
  7. What? Oh my god. Let me get this straight (no pun intended): There are people out there who think that just because a man is gay, he is obligated to "promote" gay relationships in all his work? So am I expected to promote monogamy just because I personally have only ever "had" one man? Like, if I went and wrote a character like, say Irene Adler for example, I would be betraying all monogamous people? But where's the fun in making stuff up if you can't explore something different from what you have in real life? Goodness gracious me, I do see the case for the aforementioned interpretation of the old Doyle stories (although I am almost certain that Sir Arthur himself would be appalled by it, having lived and created in very much less enlightened times as ours), but seriously, if people want that, they should go and write it themselves. Hurray for fan fiction - write what you want and for god's sake let others do the same, even if they do earn money with it. And for the record: I think that the relationship in Sherlock is something much more beautiful than a standard love affair. Amen to that! In that case, they are doing a splendid job, and it's all I want from them for sure. Not that I don't have any ideas about gay rights, feminism and a whole bunch of other stuff, but I don't look to entertainment to fight my battles for me. If it does so incidentally because the creator just honestly has certain beliefs and they show through, well and good, but as soon as it's some kind of calculated, preachy effort, I usually turn away in disgust. Where would be the fun in that? I like the winks and nods and many layers in Sherlock. I just love reading between the lines and if I mis- and overinterpret a lot in the process, so be it, at least I'm enjoying myself. EXACTLY! Thank you for that.
