I am so sick of Hound of the Baskervilles film adaptations. Not so much TV adaptations, since they have a serial nature, but if you're going to make a Sherlock Holmes film, why not do an original or semi-original plot? Or expand on something that was glossed over in canon?

Kinda OT, but I always wanted a story elaborating on whatever Holmes was doing with that Netherland-Sumatra affair that Watson tells us he's gonna skip because everyone knows what happened in his universe.

I wonder if there could be an anthology movie where Watson introduces a few different stories/cases he and Holmes have worked on. I'd love to see "Copper Beeches" adapted again. Granada did it, but I'd love to see it done more. Once upon a time I was hoping Sherlock would do it, but I'm not sure I care about the show enough to want them to, now...

BBC Sherlock is never allowed near Violet Hunter. NEVER.

Yeah, pretty much.

God, I remember loving this show, and now.... ~_~
(in fairness, I still love most of S1)

Personally, I'd like to see her on Elementary.

Oh, that could work.

Yeah, I'd give anything for a good COPP film.

Like, I'd even agree that the dog be fluorescent, if that's what attracts everyone in HOUN.

The Copper Beeches is the kind of thing that works better for TV than movies though.

/still annoyed that the Granada adaptation was so boring and unscary.

Why, though? Wouldn't it be essentially the same 90 minutes, minus the necessity to maintain continuity?

/MTE on the Granada version. It wasn't one of their best works, and this story deserves so much more.

I'd like to point out that I mentioned COPP as part of an anthology, where it would only be one of three or four stories. So it would not be stretched out to 90 minutes.

It isn't exactly what you have in mind, I think, but I'd love for it to be a Holmes comedy in the style of Nicholas Meyer's footnotes. With ridiculous and surrealeastic stuff happening randomly and Watson commenting on everything in the sassiest manner possible.

IA on HOUN, though; it needs to stop. It is hard to beat the existing versions in any event.

This reminds me that I still need to read The Seven Per Cent Solution.

A Holmes comedy would be GLORIOUS. If it was like, smart and satirical and stuff. They were all the rage back in the '70s and '80s, I think, the only problem being that they were mostly sort of shit.

I would also give anything for a Holmes/Poirot or Holmes/Miss Marple or Holmes/Young!Phillip Marlowe crossover. Crossovers don't get enough love.

I like your crossover ideas.
