Chaplin Or Holmes?
Robert Downey Jr. was in costume today in London for the new Chaplin...I mean...Sherlock Holmes movie. For real. I thought RDJ was dressed as the little tramp for "Chaplin II: The Starbuck Years." Unfortunately, it's for Guy Ritchie's version of Sherlock Holmes.
They should call this crap "Sherlock Hobo" instead, because RDJ looks raggedy as shit! Where the fuck is the little deerstalker cap, the silly pipe or the magnifying glass? Maybe this is Sherlock going undercover as Chaplin? Yeah, I know. Different time periods, but I'm trying to understand.
This shit also stars Jude "Effed Up Hairline" Law as Watson and Rachel McBoring as some broad who will probably scream often.
Here's a few more of Sherlock Chaplin in London today. Guy looks so fucking relaxed and bored for being the movie's director. Shouldn't he be running around and screaming into a bullhorn? Directing a movie is like going on vacation!



"Holmes IS a coke addict"
Well, technically *puts on annoying know-it-all cap*, Holmes is a heroin addict, as his drug of choice is Opium.

In the books, Holmes IS a coke addict (as many were at the time) so it seems that RDJ is a natural for the role. I actually want to see this, if only for RDJr's performance. I think he will nail it.

Whoops. Did I say that out aloud??
That Starbucks cup makes it so realistic!
He looks like Matthew Broderick in the main pic.
I have been a fan of Robert for many moons, Every time I see Elton's I Want Love video, I want to hold him till his eyes pop out of his head, He is a talented actor, singer, comic, and he looks like a sweetheart, The only criticsm I have viewing these pics would be Robert, please use a touch of gray not dye the whole head, It would add a little more maturity to the character. Luv You good luck!!
I love RDJ but this looks shite. Add Jude Law as Watson... Guy may be richie but he's a loser as a director always depending on big names to save his less than mediocre filmmaking. Ha, but rarely succeeds. This will bomb again. No, go to DVD silently. Without any noise.
Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least

I wish this guy would come out of the closet .
Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.
Guy Ritchie making a Sherlock film??? I wonder if it'll have a horse buggy chase scene with a gunfight. This Sherlock looks a little messy like he slept in those clothes and just woke up. I always pictured Sherlock looking sharply dressed, not like a bum. This movie looks like it will be very unintentionally funny.
Personally I'm a fan of Guy Richie. I think this movie has potential. Mmmmm, RDJ.
☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺
Todo el rato que está enojado, pierde de estar contento.
Rachel McBoring? Oh no you didn't! Just because she isn't a media whore, she's boring?!
And it's obvious you've read none of the stories, because her character, Irene, is more of a femme fatale, than a damsel-in-distress character.
If that Mockney bastard Mr Vadge is directing it will die on its arse. What a waste of the lovely RDJ. Still, it's brought him to London. *runs*

I'd sooner eviscerate myself with a butter knife than wish that existence on another human being.
Jeremy Brett IS Sherlock Holmes.
chaplin was a decent movie, but he never held a candle to the real one..and RDJ AINT NO CHAPLIN.. thatzzz my story and im stickin to it
I've never been a big fan of RDJ. Don't know why.
Holmes actually never wore the deerstalker cap in the Conan Doyle stories. Nor did he ever say, "Elementary, my dear Watson".
Oh fukkkk... I'll say something on topic.
I hate the hat, but I like what he's wearing.
but I'm sure the movie will suck.

TITS- I'll take any job. I'm not too proud.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I'm almost at that point myself. But I know that a crap job will wear me down and wear me out to such an extent that I won't have the stamina or energy to continue looking for a good job, and that scares me.
Wish I lived in a big city, my worries would be non-existent.

Of course I have too much time to spend at D (though really I'm in and out) because I'm broke and don't have a job.
support = $100 a week (yeah, that's it)
rent = $100 a week (but not until I get a job)
Sooo not much gas **makes hot steaming bowl of air for dinner**
I REALLY want one job where I applied because they will pay for me to go to school. I know people who work there sooo *crossing fingers*
AND I'M QUITTING SMOKING... I'm weaning myself off with the cigarettes I already had so that may affect my attitude.

I feel for you. Been looking for work for a few months now. It's hard not to get your hopes up about a job you want, but honey, do not do it. Wash your hands of it and move on to the next interview. Then if something happens it's a happy surprise and if not then you have other irons in the fire.
That's the part that guts me. When I'm up for a contract I could do with my eyes closed, they liked me, i liked them, and I don't win it.
After reading a bit about paula deene, making and selling sandwiches sounds pretty good about now.

TITS, I don't have a girl crush on Tina Fey but I've always respected the fact that she's intelligent and funny.
I used to love RDJ until I found out he's a switch hitter. Then My Pretty Pony Parker pretty much confirmed years ago.

RDJ looks like Chaplin, no doubt. Isn't it he that has a thing for all things Chaplin? But give me Eddie Izzard as Chaplin in The Cat's Meow any old day of the week. Any excuse to see Eddie, I say.

HAH! Was reading something about him - apparently he gets sent a LOT of heavy duty porn written by women for/about him. So it's highly doubtful you're alone.
I've always thought of him as a little uptight. His act is surprisingly clean.
