Sherlock Holmes 2009

Ok, I know I'm a bit behind everyone else, and that you lot have probably already seen this. But, as a hard core Jeremy Brett and Benedict Cumberpatch fan, I didn't think that Robert Downey Jr. would be a good Sherlock. But, he was, in his own way. You did see a lot of Tony Stark shining through though. It'd probably have been better if I'd seen this before "Avengers" or "Iron Man" (1 and 2)

These are quotes I found that I really enjoyed from the movie, and I'll also post a link that sends you to a funny video of scenes from the movie. :) Enjoy.

*Holmes spying on Blackwood's sacrifice-a henchman tries to sneak up on him, but Watson catches him and grabs him in a hold*
Watson: *whispers* "I like the hat."
Holmes: "Ah. I just picked it up."
Watson: "Did you remember your revolver?"
Holmes: "I knew I forgot something. Thought I left the stove on."
Watson: "You did."
Holmes: "That's quite enough I think, you are a doctor after all." *Watson drops henchman who is now unconcious* "Always nice to see you, Watson."

Sir Thomas: "Mr. Holmes, apologies for summoning you like this. I'm sure it's quite a mystery as to where you are, and who I am... "

Sherlock Holmes: "As to where I am, I was, admittedly, lost for a moment, between Charing Cross and Holborn, but I was saved by the bread shop on Saffron Hill. The only baker to use a certain French glaze on their loaves - a Brittany sage. After that, the carriage forked left, then right, and then the tell-tale bump at the Fleet Conduit. And as to who you are, that took every ounce of my not-inconsiderable experience. The letters on your desk were addressed to a Sir Thomas Rotherham. Lord Chief Justice, that would be the official title. Who you *really* are is, of course, another matter entirely. Judging by the sacred ox on your ring, you're the secret head of the Temple of the Four Orders in whose headquarters we now sit, located on the northwest corner of St. James Square, I think. As to the mystery, the only mystery is why you bothered to blindfold me at all."

Irene Adler: "Why are you always so suspicious?"
Sherlock Holmes: "Should I answer chronologically or alphabetically?"

Watson: *Holmes is pointing the bow to his violin at him* "Get that out of my face."
Holmes: "It's not in your face, it's in my hand."
Watson: "Get what's in your hand out of my face."

Watson: "You've been in this room for 2 weeks, I inisist you have to get out."
Holmes: "There is absolutely nothing of interest to me, out there, on earth, at all."
Watson: "So you're free this evening?"
Holmes: "Absolutely."
Watson: "Dinner?"
Holmes: "Wonderful."
Watson: "The Royale?"
Holmes: "My favorite."
Watson: "Mary's coming."
Holmes: "...Not available."
Watson: "You're meeting her, Holmes!"
Holmes: "Have you proposed yet?"
Watson: "No, I haven't found the right ring."
Holmes: "Then it's not official."
Watson: "It's happening. Whether you like it or not, 8:30, the Royale. Wear a jacket!"
Holmes: *sulking* "You wear a jacket."

*Mrs.Hudson is starting to clear space for tea*
Sherlock Holmes: "Don't touch. Everything is in its proper place... as per usual, Nanny."
*on her way out Mrs.Hudson notices the dog lying on the floor.*
Mrs.Hudson: "Oh he's killed the dog. Again."
Watson: *annoyed* "What have you done to Gladstone now?"
Sherlock Holmes: "I was simply testing a new anesthetic. He doesn't mind."

*Holmes has been firing a gun at the wall*
Watson: "Permission to enter the armory?"
Holmes: "Granted." *fires again* "Watson, I am in the process of inventing a device which muffles the sound of a gunshot." *he yells in pain when Watson opens the curtains letting in sunlight to the room*
Watson: "It's not working."

Sherlock Holmes: [to Blackwood] "I wonder if they'd let Watson and me dissect your brain. After you hang, of course. I'd wager there would be some deformity that would be scientifically significant. In that way, at least, you could serve some kind of useful purpose."

Irene Adler: "I'd say you're between jobs."
Sherlock Holmes: "And you, between husbands."
Irene Adler: "He was boring and he was jealous and he snored. I'm Irene Adler again."

*Watson and Mary enter Baker Street to find Holmes hanging from a noose*
Watson: "Don't worry, dear. Suicide is not in his repertoire. He's far too fond of himself for that." *jabs Holmes sharply* "Holmes!"
Holmes: *wakes up* "Oh, good afternoon. I was attempting to determinethe means by which Blackwood survived his execution - clearing your good name, as it were - but it had a surprisingly soporific effect, and I found myself carried off into the arms of Morpheus like a caterpillar in a cocoon." *sees Mary* "Good afternoon dear."
Watson: "Get on with it, Holmes."
Holmes: "Well, cleverly concealed in the hangman's knot was a hook... oh, my, I think my legs have fallen asleep. I should probably come down."
Mary: "John, shouldn't we help him down?"
Watson: "No, no, I hate to cut him off mid-stream." *to Holmes still hanging from the ceiling*  "Carry on."
Holmes: "Well, the executioner attached it to a harness which allowed the weight to be distributed around the waist and the neck to remain intact. Oh, lord, I can't feel my cheeks. Might we continue this at ground level?"
Watson: "How did you manage it, Holmes?"
Holmes: "I managed it with braces, belts and a coat-hook. Please, Watson, my tongue is going, soon I'll be of no use to you at all."

Watson: "Worse things could happen."

"Sherlock" Quotes from the "Great Game"

"The Great Game" is the last episode in season 1, and frankly I was falling in love with the characters. Moriarty was much more different than I expected, but I still liked him. He was so wonderfully evil in a calm buisnessman sort of way. From his facial expressions to his Westwood suit. But the whole episode is absolutely teeming with wonderfully dramatic and hilarious quotes. Enjoy~!

Sherlock: "Just tell me what happened from the beginning."
Barry: "We've been to a bar, a nice place, and I was chattin' with one of the waitresses and Karen weren't happy with that, so we got back to the hotel and ended up having a bit of a ding dong, didn't we? She was gettin' at me, saying I weren’t a real man-- "
Sherlock: "Wasn’t."
Barry: "What?"
Sherlock: "It’s not weren’t, it’s wasn’t."
Barry: "Oh..."
Sherlock: "Go on."
Barry: "Well, then I don’t know how it happened but suddenly there's a knife in my hands. And you know, my old man was a butcher so I know how to handle knives. He learned us how to cut up a piece-- "
Sherlock: "Taught."
Barry: "What?"
Sherlock: "Taught you how to cut up a piece."
Barry: "Yeah, well, then I done it."
Sherlock: "Did it."
Barry: "I stabbed her over and over and over and I looked at her and she weren’t-- ... wasn't movin' no more. Any more."
Barry: "Hey, you gotta help me, Mr. Holmes! Everyone says you're the best. Without you... I'll get hung for this."
Sherlock: "No, no, Mr. Bewick, not at all. Hanged, yes."
-Sherlock interviewing a murderer

[Sherlock shooting a smiley face on the wall with a hand gun]
John: *coming upstairs* "What the hell are you doing?!"
Sherlock: "Bored."
John: "...what?"
Sherlock: "Bored!"
He shoots the wall.
Sherlock: "Bored!"
*Shoots wall again.*
Sherlock: "Bored!  *flops on sofa* I don't know what's gotten into the criminal classes, good job I'm not one of them."
John: "So you take it out on the wall?"
Sherlock: "Oh, the wall had it coming."
-Sherlock....bored. :)

Sherlock: "Where else was I supposed to put it?"
-O.O

Sherlock:[Looking out window at London]  "Look at that, Mrs. Hudson. Quiet, calm, peaceful... isn't it hateful?"
Mrs. Hudson: "Oh, I'm sure something will turn up, Sherlock. A nice murder, that'll cheer you up."
Sherlock: "It can't come too soon."
Mrs.Hudson: [Sees bullets in her wall] "What have you done to my bloody wall?! I'm putting this on your rent young man!"
Sherlock *smiles*
[Massive Explosion]

[John sees the explosion at Baker Street on the news(he's at Sarah's)]
"Sarah, I have to go! Thanks for everything!"
[Runs to flat]
John: "Sherlock are you ok?"
[Sees Mycroft and Sherlock sitting in the only two undamaged chairs in the room surrounded by mess of the explosion]
Sherlock: *plucks string on violin absently* "Yeah, I'm fine. How was sleeping on the edge of the bed?"
Mycroft: "Sofa Sherlock, Sofa."
Sherlock: "Oh yes, of course..."

Moriarty: [Leaving the pool area] "Ciao, Sherlock Holmes."
Sherlock: [Following Moriarty's progress with a gun in his hand] "Catch..you..later."
Moriarty: *sing song voice* "No you won't!"

[About John's Blog]
Sherlock: "You read his blog?"
Lestrade: "'Course I read his blog, we all do! Do you really not know that the earth goes around the sun?"

Lestrade: "But what's this got to do with that painting? I don't see-- "
Sherlock: "You do see, you just don't observe!"
John: "Alright! Alright, girls, calm down."

"Oh, so you meant spectacularly ignorant in a nice way."
-- Sherlock

Sherlock: "People have died."
Moriarty: "That's what people DO!"


"Moriarty: "It used to be fine, but now your just getting in the way!"
Sherlock: "Thank you."
Moriarty: "I didn't mean it as a compliment."
Sherlock: "Yes you did."
Moriarty: "Alright I did."

Jim Moriarty: "I will burn the heart out of you."
Sherlock: "I have been reliably informed that I don't have one."
Jim Moriarty: "Oh, but we both know that's not quite true."

[Sniper dots are gone-Sherlock's quickly yanking the bomb off John]
Sherlock: "Are you ok?"
John: "Yeah-yeah I'm ok."
Sherlock: "That-that thing that you offered to do back there [referring to John holding Moriarty close so Sherlock could shoot him, and as a result kill Moriarty] "That was good."
John: "Glad no one saw that."
Sherlock: "What?"
John: "You, ripping off my clothes in a darkened swimming pool. People might talk."
Sherlock: "People do little else."
[Moriarty returns]
Moriarty: "Sorry boys! I am SO changeable! It is a weakness of mine. But, to be fair to myself, it is my only weakness.You can't be allowed to continue Sherlock. *straight face* You just can't."
