ROFL the CG dog is the *least* of my problems with this adaptation. It is a longstanding Sherlockian tradition that, no matter what kind of money/SFX/etc you pour your heart and soul into it, nothing, I mean *nothing* can even remotely come close to approximating ACD's original description of the Hound.

"I sprang to my feet, my inert hand grasping my pistol, my mind paralyzed by the dreadful shape which had sprung out upon us from the shadows of the fog. A hound it was, an enormous coal-black hound, but not such a hound as mortal eyes have ever seen. Fire burst from its open mouth, its eyes glowed with a smouldering glare, its muzzle and hackles and dewlap were outlined in flickering flame. Never in the delirious dream of a disordered brain could anything more savage, more appalling, more hellish be conceived than that dark form and savage face which broke upon us out of the wall of fog."
