(Anonymous) 2011-03-18 01:35 am (UTC)(link)Thank you! God, that drove me more insane than any of the Asian stereotyping. For fuck's sake lady, tip over the chair. Of course John tips over his chair :| Also, why gag her? Everyone was making lots of noise so there was no practical reason to gag her plot-wise. Problem writing female dialogue? Just gag 'em!
(Don't even get me started on the James Bond villian-esque crossbow of dooom. Did they go back to the performance hall just to set up a crossbow in a tunnel? They have a gun for fuck's sake, I think that's intimidating enough, thank you. And they set up a sand bag/pulley system? Whut.)
You can enjoy problematic things, but stop defending them like they're perfect and throwing in a little shame for people who take a critical eye to things!
Yes x1000. I love poking fun at the shows and movies I love or even, yes, criticizing when they slip up. Finding plot holes gives me honest joy sometimes (is this just the MST3K fan in me?) I don't know, I think being able to find the flaws in things you love makes you appreciate the successful bits even more (or to put it differently, something has to be fucking awesome if, despite its problems, it's still primarily awesome.)
I noticed in another comment (I assume by you), you mention that you dislike how there are no repercussions for being a complete ass. And I think Sherlock is just that: a complete ass. Holmes is absolutely rude and insulting on occasion in canon but somehow it's just different; like he truly, honestly can't understand how others are not equipped with the same faculties. BBC Sherlock demeans and verbally attacks everyone and is constantly, purposefully belittling.
