oooh, shiny! ♥

I was watching Get Smart with my brother yesterday (a very entertaining film, by the way, I recommend it) and I had a surprisingly coherent train of thought, so I thought I might present you:

    A concrete example of how ADHD affects your brain
    How one goes from thinking "Just help him already!" to "Holmes!♥" in the span of 10 seconds
  • Watching Get Smart

  • Think "Giant Henchman, why don't you just help The Hero?"

  • Realise I only think so because the film is from The Hero's point of view

  • What if we saw the film from The Villain's point of view, or from The Giant Henchman's?

  • I suspect The Villain would still be an awful employer, though

  • He has to be, since he is a stereotype, because villains always are, even in clever comedies like this

  • James Bond villains are always very two-dimensional

  • Shane Black said he spends so much time developing the protaganists, that the antagonists always end up pretty sketchy

  • Shane Black kind of invented the whole Buddy Cop genre with Lethal Weapon

  • Which reviewer was it that said, "I kept waiting for Watson to mutter, 'I'm too old for this shit'"?

  • Yay, Holmes and Watson! ♥

  • Wait, something happened, better pay attention again

Yeah, that's pretty much how my brain is all the time, unless I'm terribly interested and/or focused. Under the right circumstances, it's quite amusing.


Also, because everyone and their mother are posting about it:

# Which reviewer was it that said, "I kept waiting for Watson to mutter, 'I'm too old for this shit'"?

was it in the Cracked.com review (here (http://www.cracked.com/article/18348_new-sherlock-holmes-lethal-weapon-2-in-victorian-clothes/))

and yeah that picture can be posted 10 000 times I would still click and stare

Ah, yes, that was the one! Thank you for linking it to me. :D

That picture is a dream fanfic come true. Seriously. ♥

And someone pointed out that one can see a dancing men word on the mantelpiece... it's too small but knowing Ritchie sense of humour, I would bet it's something silly like "SH JW kissing in a tree"

All roads lead to Holmes? (Ok that wasn't up to par with my usual wit, but I am all witted out

Still not sick of that picture. Am contemplating vectorising it and making a wall poster out of it. Actually I could make a series of posters and wallpaper my room with them.

When you're as single-minded as I am, you bet! (Thank you, now I want to see Holmes and Watson solve crimes in Italy in the next movie...)

One can never get sick of that picture. I've e-mailed you the reasons why.
It is also brilliant inspiration, by the way. The bigbang fic is coming along great. ♥
