    Robert Downey Jr. As Sherlock????

    Am watching it now for the umpteenth time. Taped it on VHS. Love the new adapttion of Holmes. If one reads the books it's very close action wise. particularly love the Baritsu scenes and the satiric interplay between Holmes & Watson. Can't wait for the new one to add to my collection.
