Gay or straight, this is NOT your father's Holmes and Watson. The action, the stunts, the explosions, the weapons, and all that swagger. Looks like its gonna be fun. I don't know if there will be too many straight guys avoiding this film. We'll see.

Ooh, it looks brilliant. Can't wait to see it. I'm especially excited because I see that it also stars one of my favourite British actors, Mark Strong. The trailer gives him star billing. I loved him in the BBC miniseries, "The Long Firm," in which he played the part of menacing 1960s gay London gangster, Harry Starks. He was great in that role and looks scrummy in this film too. What a trio, Downing, Law & Strong! Be still my beating heart! Yep, definitely can't wait!

I think Medved was right after all,  the actors were just having some fun in regards to the gay claims.  It does look pretty good though.

That trailer reminds me so much of the Dark Knight trailers.  The boomy sound effects in the beginning are so similar, and the soundtrack's in the same key.

Yep. Both are in D minor. Good catch.

I thought so, too. And he also looks Garciaesque in the trailer.

Mark Strong reminds me of Christopher Meloni. And that's gotta be a goooood thing!  ;D
