      I've liked nearly every version ever made. One of my favorites is the one in the videogames. They seem to get the most out of the persona from the books correct. But as others have said, Jeremy Brett is incredible. He's easily one of the best also. Basil Rathbone is just the most classic one that most people would picture in their head.
      Even the newest Sherlock series is great in its own way. They have all taken different aspects of the character and ran with them. Some are colder, some take the drug use a bit further, some are more eccentric.
      The worst two in my book would be from the Robert Downey Jr ones, for starters, but even those aren't horrible. The absolute worst is the one comedy movie that I can't recall the name of, I wanted to forget it so badly. I think it has that guy from Anchorman. My brain isn't working good today. But I'd put the characters from Enola Holmes above them even.
      I love Nigel Bruce as Watson, but I wish they'd have made him not quite so silly. He's a soldier and doctor which can easily be forgotten by his demeanor. He's super loyal and loveable though so I let it slide haha.

The Woman in Green right behind those. Wasn't the biggest fan of The Voice of Terror or The Hound of the Baskervilles, but I'm right with you, I love them all.

    Nigel Bruce is the unsung hero; his acting, as Watson's presumed bumbling foil to Sherlock's ingenious abilities, is the perfect counterpoint for assumption vs deduction. Well-written adaptation of original texts, without overplaying the characters for additional box office sensationalism :)

So they're not faithful to the true characters and never were intended to be, Watson is made out a buffoon etc but it doesn't matter they are fun, entertaining and very charming.

It amused me so much that the word pip became one of my favorite words through my life as it has a plethora of meanings besides being a small fruit seed.

    Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !"
    Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ."
    Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
    Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
    Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
    Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
    Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
    Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"

      Different, but also wonderful, Basil. Wonderful episode, in which Basil is 99.99% of the way to an oh, so rare victory...only to have it dashed, smashed and snatched away in about 10 seconds. Wonderful comedy.

    Thanks for posting! Basil Rathbone is always fun to watch, and an entertaining movie. Enough intrigue to keep one's interest, and no gratuitous blood and gore. Although, Edgar Allen Poe's stories are far and away better detective stories; like, Murders at the Rue Morgue, The Purloined Letter, etc. Far superior to deduction.

    • @wuffothewonderdog
      @wuffothewonderdog 11 месяцев назад +1

      In WW1 Basil Rathbone served in the Scottish Rifles, a London territorial regiment .
      Several other actors who later also found fame and success in Hollywood served in the same regiment were Ronald Colman, Claude Rains, Cedric Hardwick and Herbert Marshall.

    I think a lot of people put too much thinking into the series. I just hate it when people steal free stuff off the Internet and then load it up on RUclips and put adverts in it. You know, like it's their material. But reading the comments from all the intellectuals is rather entertaining.
