Movie posters have a certain romantic quality to them especially when done in an artistic style like the ones for the new Sherlock Holmes movie. I wonder what Robert Downey, Jude Law, Rachel McAdams and Mark Strong think of them?

Movie posters have been created for every Sherlock Holmes film produced – you can read more about them on the Movie Posters page.

As reported by Jalapenoman on The Spoof there were mistakes made on the new Sherlock Holmes movie.

Robert Downey Jr. has admitted that several mistakes and inconsistencies crept into the new “Sherlock Holmes” movie. The film, scheduled for release on Christmas Day in the United States, is loosely based on the character created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

“Yes, we had a few historical inaccuracies,” admitted Downey. “For example, I shouldn’t have been wearing an Iron Man t-shirt.”

“I also understand that the giant Ferris wheel, I forget what it was called,” was not in London in the last century and that we should not have filmed a pivotal fight scene there.”

“A few historians have also said that Sherlock Holmes should not have had a Rolling Stones poster on his wall or have been playing an original Les Paul guitar. In fact, they tell me that he really played the violin, but that would have been hard since I don’t do that.”

“A few people have also gotten mad about the scene where Holmes and Watson have a pizza delivered and stay home to watch a ball game.”

“In retrospect, Holmes should not have sent Scotland Yard a text message about where to meet him.”

“They also tell me that he would not have used expressions like gnarly, dude, far out, cool, or bitchin’.”

“If people had told us these things before filming, we might have been able to fix it. As it goes, well, you can’t please all of the people all of the time.”

See how many of these mistakes you catch when you watch the new Sherlock Holmes movie.

Sherlock Holmes Movie Poster 2009

Although we must wait for the movie’s release, there are two movie posters for the new Sherlock Holmes movie available now.

The first movie poster features Robert Downey, Jr. as the infamous Sherlock Holmes. This artistic rendition shows a rather scruffier looking Sherlock Holmes than the traditional dapperness depicted with earlier Sherlock Holmes likenesses. Still, Sherlock Holmes stands firm and confident against a background of old London swirling with fog.

The second movie poster is of course of Jude Law as the dependable Dr. John Watson. Dr. Watson is also presented with a dark and foggy looking London town in the background. The artist chose to show a very serious and intent Dr. Watson in this poster.

Each poster measure 27 inches by 40 inches. They are double sided and come rolled.

Whether you are a Sherlock Holmes fan or a Robert Downey Jr. fan, you will want to buy the Sherlock Holmes movie poster now to enjoy while you wait for the movie’s Christmas Day release. Or perhaps it is Dr. Watson or Jude Law that you want to hang on your wall. Then you will want to buy the Dr. Watson movie poster.

If you have trouble making up your mind about which one to buy, go ahead and consider getting both of them. These movie posters are truly works of art.
