Strange Sherlock Holmes Related News, And More....

First, some strange news—Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen will be starring in an as yet untitled Sherlock Holmes comedy. Cohen will be Holmes, and Ferrell will be Watson. I don’t see that working, and I’m staying far away from that one, since I tend to avoid movies with those two in them.

The only Holmes comedy I’ve actually seen and loved was Without a Clue, which starred Michael Caine as Sherlock Holmes. Of course, I only saw it once on television many years ago, and haven’t been able to find it since then.

Edit: Wow, looks like I’ll be able to watch it again. Someone uploaded it to Youtube.

In other news, if I’m still doing good health-wise on the 18th, I’ll be going to see The Dark Knight. I just won’t be getting any popcorn, since that’s off the list of things I’m allowed while the ulcer heals.
