Movie Reviews and Previews Almost time for Black Panther (Lainey: this post was supposed to go up yesterday but I had to be a dick. Black Panther tickets went on sale.

Boy Sh-t Boy Sh*t: Sherlock Edition Sherlock series four ended over the weekend, and maybe the whole show ended, too, as there is no guarantee of a return any time soon. Sherlock has always been a series of long hiatuses, but as its stars, Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, have gotten more and more famous, it By Sarah • Jan 17, 2017 01:00 pm
TV Updates Sherlock: In the end, none of it matters Sherlock Season 4, Episode 3 recap SPOILERS After a middle episode that introduced a completely unjustified third Holmes sibling, Sherlock series four concludes with whack-a-mole plot and a wholly unnecessary retconning of the entire Moriarty arc of the first two—and still best—seasons. “The Final Problem” is also hopefully By Sarah • Jan 16, 2017 08:43 am
TV Updates Sherlock-Batch is Best Batch Immediately after wrapping filming on Doctor Strange in New York, Benedict Cumberbatch returned to London to begin work on series four of Sherlock.

TV Updates Review: The Sherlock Victorian special MAYBE SPOILERS DEPENDING ON SENSITIVITY On New Year’s Day the BBC and PBS finally got their sh*t together and aired Sherlock at the same time, instead of making the US wait weeks for it, which is dumb and pointless in this day and age. It’s the one-off, By Sarah • Jan 04, 2016 12:27 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews PLEASE be Captain Britain Yesterday Marvel announced yet another person to add to the pile of people already appearing in Captain America: Civil War, and it’s Sherlock star Martin Freeman in an undisclosed role.

Benedict Cumberbatch Sherlock’s return It’s about three months until Sherlock returns on the BBC and/or we all pirate it—no use pretending any of us are actually going to wait till it airs on PBS in twenty-motherf*cking-fourteen—and we have our first teaser. It’s a totally uninformative glimpse of Sherlock By Sarah • Aug 05, 2013 10:35 am
Benedict Cumberbatch Looking good in that overcoat There. I said something nice about re: appearance and Benedict Cumberbatch. He does wear an overcoat very well.
