I like him fine as Sherlock-- but I don't bring many expectations to the table about that character. I've seen BC in other things and he's quite good as well. Did you see the re-done Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy? I think he's a very good actor in general (and not a bad guy), so I'm looking forward to seeing him in this. Eventually.

The Holmes I expected to loathe was Jonny Lee Miller. Color me corrected in a major. freaking. way.
