Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows posters and trailer... did you expect less than awesome?

Seriously? Did we expect anything less from the duo of Robert Downey Jr. and Guy Ritchie?  The first Sherlock Holmes film was a massive hit.  It was a fun film with a lot of action and humor to keep us occupied for two hours.  Now comes the trailer to the sequel, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. 

Missing is the beautiful Rachel McAdams, but we get the lovely Noomi Rapace and returning, Jude Law.  It's the franchises first stab at the villain Professor Moriaty, played by Jared Harris.  Check it out and tell us what you think!

Sherlock Holmes sequel gets an official title

I've only seen a few pictures from the 2009 sequel, but I have to tell you, I'm really excited about the new Sherlock Holmes.  And now we have an official title!  Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows.  I like it.  The movie of course stars Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law and Noomi Rapace.  It will be directed by Guy Ritchie (interesting rumor coming up next about Sir Richie).  There is also a rumor floating around that Rachel McAdams has a cameo in the film.  That is all for now.

New "Sherlock Holmes 2" Picture

This is the second picture to be released and it comes from an article in the LA Times. The article talks about the plot for the sequel to the 2009 smash hit. I loved the first film and so did Matt. Both films are directed by Guy Ritchie. We're both looking forward to this Christmas weekend when the sequel will be released. That is all for now kids!

Quickie: Sherlock Holmes 2 gets a release date

Warner Bros have announced the release date for Sherlock Holmes 2. The movie will be released December 16th, 2011. Just like the first film, it will be directed by Guy Ritchie and star Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law.

Rachel McAdams will also be in the sequel according to the producer of the film, Joel Silver. I loved the first film and hopefully the sequel will live up to its predecessor. Keep ya fingers crossed!

Guy Ritchie leaving Lobo for Sherlock Holmes 2

"Thisssss sucks!" As my favorite, Chris Farley so eloquently put it in Tommy Boy. It looks like the comic book adaptation, Lobo, took a hit today. Guy Ritchie was slated to direct the film, but has opted out in order to start on the sequel to Sherlock Holmes. 'Sherlock' did so well at the theaters, and continues to, that the studio, producers and Ritchie himself are eager to get started on the sequel.

A few weeks ago we mentioned that Robert Downey Jr. was leaving another comic book adaptation, Cowboys & Aliens, in order to get started on 'Sherlock' 2. So the news of Ritchie following suite, is not a HUGE surprise. Does it make me sad? Yes. Will I still see Lobo with another director? Yes. The comic book is great and has so much potential on the big screen. We'll have to wait and see who the studio elects to direct the picture. But we'll let you know when it happens.

Quickie: Sherlock Holmes 2 starts filming soon

It looks like the movie was a big enough success that the second film will start shooting as early as July. This is really no surprise, Sherlock Holmes continues to do very well at the box office, consistently second behind Avatar every week since Christmas. The other big news for the sequel is that Brad Pitt will star. This was rumored a few times during filming of the first film, but now it's been confirmed that Pitt will be a part of the sequel. Looking good!
