But I remember more about the poison darts and the ongoing bear riddle than anything about Holmes and Watson.
I mostly remember the food hallucination.
Sex with robots is more common than most people think.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

yeah, that was pretty trippy. Since I know from somewhere you're a Cupid fan(not sure how; we've never discussed it) you'd probably like They May Be Giants as well.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Brett, with a close second of Nicol Williamson's Holmes in Seven Percent Solution, which also has a scrumptious Alan Arkin as Freud. If you ignore the HORRIBLE drug sequence, it's a fabulous movie.

Never seen it...I think I read the book. But I heart AA.

Also the movie with Duvall's Watson. And Olivier as Moriarity.

I am, and I'll keep an eye out for it, thanks.

We read the book in seventh-grade English. I liked it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I feel the opposite about the trailer, probably for the same reasons -- it just looks like a bunch of quips, instead of something of any heft at all.
Ah, where I'm not expecting heft at all. Quips and spats and RDJ and I'm a happy woman.
The Holmes/Watson relationship (and wow it's hard not to type House/Wilson) is easily the best thing about the movie.
See, this is just a bonus.

I'm so happy about the Canadian who decided to you-tube his old videos...he is a prince among men. He is not helping my Piven fixation, either despite Piven having *horrible* taste in film scripts of late.(Look! Topic. Boom!) Dude, I'd rather you be the second banana than be the lead and one of the few good things in a load of crap. okthksbai.

Sadly, the DVD is out of print (and used copies seem to be getting mega-bucks per Amazon).

7% Solution pops up on tv quite often--keep an eye out for it. It's really quite good. Olivier plays Moriarty!
ETA: which I just noticed Frank has already mentioned. Oops!
Speaking of Alan Arkin movies, I really should seek out a copy of Wait Until Dark for a rewatch. Love that movie, and Arkin is amazingly creepy as Harry Roat. If you've not seen it, make sure you watch it with all the lights out for full effect.
