Ferrell and Reilly are Holmes and Watson

[NotSoLongAgo]

Reilly and Ferrell reunion? Im in

 

[Eddie Dean]

John C. Reilly sure is a versatile guy, isn't it? He's just about done everything, from musicals to comedies to dramas to animated movies. And he's great in all of it!

He has other interests, too. He's a magician.

 

[CaptainWagner]

Sounds intriguing. And I second the need for a crisis of Infinite Sherlocks.

 

[Deck Rickard]

So this is still happening. And apparently Ralph Fiennes is playing Moriarty. Because I guess it took the worst possible Sherlock Holmes project ever to finally give us a good Moriarty.

I can't wait to see Ferrell run around screaming in a deerstalker cap.

i just came across this news.

this now takes the top of my most hyped movie for 2018.

looks to be the greatest thing ever. like peanut butter jelly sandwiches.

He's no Ralph Fiennes but I thought Jared Harris was a decent Moriarty in the second RDJ Sherlock movie.

And of course, while he's not technically called Moriarty, something has to be said for Professor Ratigan...

 

[godisawesome]

I knew of Ratigan before I knew of Moriaty, but I immediately recognized Moriarty because of Ratigan. He and Jared Harris's versions feel pretty perfect to me in capturing the idea of an opposite number with a ferocious and vengeful malice upon being outsmarted.

Did my dreams just come true?

[terry78]

Yeah I'm seeing this.

 

[The Big G]

yessssss

 

[samsnee]

Ferrell channeling Mugatu a bit.

 

[Sawyer]

So I've caught wind of the more popular usage of the word "Holmies".... kinda feeling like the marketing team should've done a Google search.

It's only popular among a niche of Tumblr reserved for basket cases. I'd never heard of that term before today and now I wish I hadn't.

[terry78]

I think I laughed way too hard at Watson shooting the killer bees with pistols.

 

[David H.]

Then immediately looses all good-will on the selfie joke.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Fiennes already is a better Moriarty than Jared Harris.

 

[Sithborg]

I laughed. Looks fun.

 

[Lighthouse]

I really did not expect that trailer to be so awful. Wow. Not one laugh, and my jaw just dropped at the selfie scene. How could anyone not only think that was funny enough to put in the film, but to put in the trailer as well. I'm genuinely shocked at how bad this is.

 

[samsnee]

Yeah didn’t look that funny. I loved Stepbrothers though so will give them the benefit of the doubt.

[Lighthouse]

Why? Cause I didn't like the trailer?

 

[Enriquespy]

I have a spare shot I can give to this.
