Y'all, there's a trailer for the upcoming RDJ & Jude Law Sherlock Holmes movie! I don't see a way to embed, but
you can watch it right here. I'm excited! Holmes rocks some drag, Watson is exasperated and badass, lots of stuff blows up, and (I kid you not) there's spooning. Whee! This incarnation of Holmes may not be terribly true to canon, but it retains enough of the important bits to satisfy me, and the first movie was hella fun (not to mention full of glorious slashiness). I have high hopes for the second to follow in its footsteps.
In other movie news, I went to see Midnight in Paris. It was a frothy wish-fulfillment fantasy, but I really enjoyed it. There's time travel to visit famous authors and artists, which is one of my favorite recurring tropes in Doctor Who. It's really funny, especially conversations with Hemmingway or Salvador Dali. Owen Wilson and the rest of the cast give excellent performances. The shrewish fiance character is over the top-I had no clue what brought this couple together in the first place-but other than that Midnight in Paris was a charming comedic love letter to Paris.
