Catch Every Appearance of Sherlock Holmes On Screen

Saturday, January 7, 2012 8:30

Years ago when I was in college studying English, I had two summer classes with a 45 minute break between them. The walk from the building I was in to the Student Center was about 15 minutes each way, but the library was right next door. So, in between these ...

British Sci-Fi Is Better Than American Sci-Fi (GeekDad Weekly Rewind)

British Sci-Fi Is Better Than American Sci-Fi (GeekDad Weekly Rewind)

Saturday, May 14, 2011 7:30

That the British know how to put on a wedding is probably a given, but they produce great sci-fi and fantasy television as well. Of course, the latest Dr. Who season is out and tearing up the airwaves, but let us reflect on what that means in terms of longevity ...

Young Sherlock Holmes Revisited

Young Sherlock Holmes Revisited

Thursday, March 31, 2011 9:15

Young Sherlock Holmes recently became available via Netflix “Instant Watch.” I was both excited and apprehensive because I remember really enjoying this movie, and, well, I’ve been badly burned by nostalgic revisits before. (I’m looking at you, Krull. I’m. Looking. At. You.) I needn’t have worried. #teaser-61764 {display:none} Young Sherlock ...

Sherlock — Modern Day Version Does Right by Holmes & Watson

Friday, November 12, 2010 9:15

I’ve been a Sherlock Holmes geek since I first discovered Hound of the Baskervilles in the stacks of my junior high school library. After finishing, I eagerly devoured the whole Canon, up to and including the two-volume annotated set by W.S. Baring-Gould. I also tried to regale my junior ...

Heavy Rain Influences BBC’s Sherlock

Tuesday, August 10, 2010 7:00

It’s funny how particular game seems to resurface at different times. After the announcement of Heavy Rain’s Move edition-enabled re-release I had been revisiting what I’d made of the game when it was first released. We really enjoyed the Heavy Rain PS3 experience in our family – the older members ...

The Thief Who Stole Sherlock’s Watch

The Thief Who Stole Sherlock’s Watch

Arsene Lupin — the anti-hero of a series of French crime stories published 100 years ago — really did steal Sherlock Holmes’ watch. Or perhaps I should say Holmlock Shears. Or perhaps Herlock Sholmes. You’ll find that Sherlock’s name changes depending on which version of which book you and/or your Geeklet pick ...

10 Things Parents Should Know about Sherlock Holmes

10 Things Parents Should Know about Sherlock Holmes

Sunday, December 27, 2009 10:41

When Sherlock Holmes was first announced, I had mixed feelings: Guy Ritchie? Seriously? More reassuring was news of Robert Downey Jr.’s casting as Holmes, especially after Iron Man showed that he could pull off a genuinely fun action movie in a way that too many stars have forgotten. ...
