‘Sherlock Holmes’: Elementary, My Dear Jude Law

October 1st, 2008 // 5 Comments

One of the worst kept casting secrets of the movie biz has been confirmed. Asslete Jude Law has officially signed on to play Watson to Robert Downey Jr.‘s Sherlock Holmes in Guy Ritchie‘s take on the story.

Law will also star alongside Rachel McAdams as Holmes’ female arch-nemesis Irene Adler, Kelly Reilly as Jude’s love interest, and Mark Strong as someone obviously snuff-snorting and foppish or into duels named Lord Blackwood.

This means that Jude gets to wear a bowler hat and allow the audience to concentrate on the flick as opposed to his rapidly-growing-shinier head.

But it wasn't Sherlock Holmes — and the 2011 sequel Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows is more or less the same. Leading men Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law might play characters named Sherlock Holmes and John Watson, but that's more or less where the ...

    Is it legal to say that I`m actually looking forward for that shit? I mean, I think RDjr is cute and I have to admit that I always had a thing for Sherlock Holmes.

    The cast isn`t bad, I like Rachel.

    Oh, Madoonas toyboy should better work it good!

    The UN is a Jewish organization. The symbol of human sacrifice is displayed in the UN lobby – it’s the Jew’s Ark which is a war tool that they used to terrorize others into submission. The Ark is a slab of stone upon which dissected human body parts were splayed. It was shown to those the Jews wanted to rob. People would rightly assume the Jews to be insane sociopathic cannibals and they’d hand over their money, their land and their lives.

    It’s what they UN and it’s members have done with the 9/11 attacks, followed by mass murder in a fake Iraq war that they used to kill secular semitic Arabs neighbors of Israel. The Jews who founded the UN and their stupid, self-serving greedy tools, stole American taxpayers monies to finance 9/11, while simultaneously robbing over 40 nations and killing citizens of 40 nations through stock market fraud, insurance and banking fraud. Silverstein got 4.5 billion in insurance payout for dropping his 3 buildings at the WTC. 3 trillion went “missing” in the faux war, and the day before 9/11 Rumsfeld warned us that billions were missing from the budget.

    They killed us so they can rob us. They terrorized us to silence us into submission. This is an evil cabal.

    The Jews’ Ark lives to kill us. Ark = Rock. In ancient times the Jews had no vowels. It read “rk”. Their rock is their god. Their god is the Ark. Their ark is a tool of war, human sacrifice, mass murder, 9/11, WMD, Einstein’s atomic explosive. Israel and Satan are synonymous. Know them by their deeds. Do not be deceived.

    Truth be known.

    “This means that Jude gets to wear a bowler hat and allow the audience to concentrate on the flick as opposed to his rapidly-growing-shinier head.”

    As an audience member, I would find myself concentrating on that face and those eyes! Worry about your own retreating locks. At least he’s got handsome and sexy going for him. You’re just a dufus!
