Watch the First Trailer for Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
Sherlock Holmes -- Guy Ritchie's 2009 blockbuster take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous 19th century investigator -- struck such a chord with its witty bromantic banter and sense for high period adventure, why not repeat the formula for the sequel? After the jump, watch the first trailer for Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, featuring everything you loved about the first film, now with a new villain, a girl with a dragon tattoo, and Robert Downey Jr. in drag!
Head over to Apple to watch in HD.
Ah, that brusque Holmes charm, that crackling Downey-Law chemistry! Sumptious set design, copious karate chops! The introduction of Holmes nemesis Moriarty (Jared Harris) should shake things up a bit, while Noomi Rapace as a new feisty lady sidekick wins my opening weekend interest. But seriously: After all the ass-kicking Rapace did in the Millenium trilogy, is that the best knife throw she can muster?
Verdict: Despite the cringe-inducing sight of RDJ in drag (that blue eyeshadow does nothing for him), it's just enough to earn my Dec. 16 vote over Tom Cruise (not cross-dressing, to my knowledge) in Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol.

The first movie was such an atrocity that I feel like RDJ owes me a personal visit to give me a makeover - Blue eye shadow sounds nice.
Variation in the colour of the eyes from brown to green can all be explained by the amount of melanin in the iris, but blue-eyed individuals only have a small degree of variation in the amount of melanin in their eyes. “From this we can conclude that all blue-eyed individuals are linked to the same ancestor,” says Professor Eiberg. “They have all inherited the same switch at exactly the same spot in their DNA.” Brown-eyed individuals, by contrast, have considerable individual variation in the area of their DNA that controls melanin production.`
