Mark Antony Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Moriarty was great on Sherlock. The seasons 1 and 2 finales are both amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Moff Mithrandir Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Count me in the camp of those who weren't completely sold on Moriarty. IDK I guess the whole man-child aspect was a tad overdone :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Tiger Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Which is probably why Magnusson was portrayed the way he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrion Lannister Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I liked Moriarty. I wasn't sure how I felt about this version of the character when he first revealed himself, but I was completely sold on him by The Reichenbach Fall. I'll be very disappointed if he winds up being alive though. Him being so obsessed with beating Sherlock that he would kill himself to eliminate what he believed to be Sherlock's only out was perfect.

sj4iy Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I very much doubt it's really Moriarty. One doesn't just survive a bullet to the brain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wolves Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I always thought that the Moriarty we saw was never the really Moriarty just a puppet who was being manipulated and controlled by the real Moriarty. Anyways I always pictured Moriarty as older and more composed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the larger scale of his activities, the "Napoleon" nickname, his appearance and personality, and the events in his brief meetings with Sherlock, make him a more faithful depiction of Moriarty as he originally appeared in the Conan Doyle stories than the Sherlock Jim Moriarty is.

Anyways I always pictured Moriarty as older and more composed.That's more the take of Elementary with Moriarty. Except, you know, she wasn't older and more composed...

Chibubbi Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I enjoy both Sherlock and Elementary. I really love how Benedict Cumberbatch portrays Sherlock. There's just something about him that makes it hard for me to think of another actor who could best portray Sherlock on screen, and I love his chemistry with Martin Freeman. There are only 3 episodes per season but I'm hooked! However, I really like the diversity of the characters in Elementary. I also love how Dr. Watson and the other characters treat Sherlock Holmes; they acknowledge the fact that he's really good at what he does but they put him into place whenever he's getting out of line. I also love the changes they made: Dr. Watson being a female, Irene Adler/Moriarty, etc. and come on, Natalie Dormer's there so... :bowdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelcaldwell Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I've been watching Sherlock for a few years now. It's one of my top 3 current shows, despite its short seasons. But yeah, it's an awesome show :D I was initially very much impressed with the experimentation in Sherlock but then didn't like the last season much!

Summerfell Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I'm not super familiar with the original stories, but isn't there a possibility that Sebastian Moran is going to be the villain in Season 4? I'd probably like that better than some relative of Moriarty's, though they would have to explain where Moran has been and what he's been doing all this time...

sj4iy Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I was initially very much impressed with the experimentation in Sherlock but then didn't like the last season much! Episode 1 of Series 3 had some problems. Episode 2 felt very much like a 'traditional mystery' in terms of Sherlock Holmes, which was pretty interesting. Episode 3 was a thriller, and I really, really liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Tiger Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I don't think watsons gf as n assassin worked at all At first neither did I, until Sherlock explained to Watson why he chose her. it all made sense and suddenly I was able to buy it. Sounds weird as fuck, I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
