Fill: The Theory of Narrative Causality (1b/4?) anonymous May 17 2011, 15:26:20 UTC
Downey would be not be able to play Holmes if he stuck a mop stick up his arse and drank his tea with one pinkie outstretched, and even then he would still be a sugar-hyperactive monkey with no proper sense of manners and the most ridiculous face in the history of christendom

The Ritchie movie is nothing more than American-bait with many explosions and basic appeals at the impressionable human psyche with supernatural stupidities

How To Butcher A Strong Female Character, or why they turned the most intelligent woman of the entire stories into a trousers-wearing, fighting-savvy, men-dominated femme fatale with red lipstick and no brains of her own

Funnily, though, consulting_detective refrains entirely from making scathing remarks about Law's Watson. People remark on this. consulting_detective keeps silent, and then admits that Law's Watson is interestingly-thought and better-played than his detective counterpart.

salts_theway suggests that someone has a crush.

andrés_son makes unfashionable remarks about consulting_detective's sexuality.

consulting_detective replies with a damning deduction about salts_theway and andrés_son relationship.

Shit gets personal from then on, and more people join in. Some mice laugh at everyone and then some. miss_toby takes consulting_detective's defense. storm_ford complains that this is why fandom can't have nice things. jim_fromit predicts it will all end on fandom_wank.

The mod of the comm, let_us_trade, eventually turns off anon commenting and administrates the following smackdown:

SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU WANKERS. It's a very nice weekend here with the missus and the kids, and I'd rather not be dealing out bans on precious members of the comm, thanks very much. Get off the laptop, get yourselves a drink, and remember that we're all here because we love the same characters. DON'T COME BACK UNLESS YOU CAN BE CIVIL. Christ, what are you, kindergarden kids?

s_sarah, who was apparently out at work for the duration of the wank and had no idea that her thread had degenerated so rapidly, seconds this, and advices everyone to stop flooding her inbox and go read jumperfucker's latest epic 30K fic instead, because 'at least [they] can all agree that his fanfiction's the best out there.'

salts_theway replies that she has always thought jumperfucker's stuff to be vastly overrated. So far, nobody has really reacted to this, but considering that jumperfucker is one of the best-known BNFs of SH fandom, has written some 200K of fanfiction in both the ACD and the '09 premises, and has well over 3000 LJ friends, that should turn into another wankfest pretty rapidly.

ETAs to come!

cute enough to shoot you down (jumperfucker) wrote,

Well. Uh. I think everybody and their grandmothers' cats have seen this clusterfuck. Thanks for the unexpected publicity, I guess? I know s_sarah was only trying to help and calm things down, for which I thank her, but god now I wish they'd shut up and be done with it.
