RDJ pats a young coffee vendor on the head. “Give us a shilling then, guv,” said the cheeky lad.
The first pictures from the London set of Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes adaptation have hit the web. Just the thought of Robert Downey Jr. chewing scenery as Sherlock Holmes made me squirt a little glee pee down the leg of my sweat pants. Here we see him sporting a great period costume, and by that I mean it looks like the outfit they give you in the nurse’s office when you get period on yourself. Blood on your skirt? Here, wear these plaid parachute pants, we wouldn’t want you to feel embarrassed.

Robert Downey Jr. looks like the kind of Sherlock Holmes who goes around solving crimes that he doesn’t remember committing.
Damn, Jude Law must age in Dog years.
Nice Lord of the Flies reference, Vince.
The Mighty Feklahr wonders where RDJ will be able to draw inspiration from for Holmes’ cocaine habit…
Apparently the key to solving crimes…layering.
I’m really looking forward to this, also. I guess that makes me part of the glee pee club as well.
This looks like a sneak peek of RDJ’s Halloween costume. This year he’s going as Hugh Jackman.
Damn Donk! You beat me to a better Hugh Jackman joke than I was going to use.
Fuck it. Does RDJ’s Sherlock Holmes still get to use the hand cannons and fly and shit?
Wait, are we sure that’s not Hugh Jackman dressed as RDJ for Halloween? I am so fucking confused.
Banner Pic: RDJ checks the severity of his hands’ trembling before deciding whether he needs more coffee.
Banner Pic: Shia LeBeouf quantum leaps into RDJ’s body and marvels at all the fingers he has.
Banner Pic: INVIZIBUL BASKITBALL!
I hope the dialogue includes, “hoist with your own full petard”.
‘Tis a venti half-caff caramel machiatto with extra foam, Watson.
I see RDJ’s Holmes favours home-rolled… cigarettes over pipes. Yeah, cigarettes.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Goddammit, not again. Things I am not thankful for… Uproxx filters…
Well good morning, and Happy Thanksgiving! I’ve been here a while but once again… Uproxx got Al.
I know now you’re just doing that to make me look stoopid, Vance. I don’t need your help.
I see you, Al. Lookin’ good today.
Al – it’s hard to remember to check my spam filter unless you remind that it’s not working. It’s a nice surprise, like finding dolphins in my tuna net. Hehe, ‘tuna net’.
Al, there has not been one time that your posts have not been visible to me. Except all those ones that I couldn’t see, of course.
Thanksgiving? In October? What planet is this?
I’ve been to a Canadian Thanksgiving – they roasted a goose on a hockey-stick skewer over an open fire fueled by a six-pack of LaBatts.
Stoney, you see my comments only after Vince frees me from his tuna net.
In Vancouver we have tofurkey because it’s healthier (hope that didn’t gross anyone out – then again, I’m talking to the turducken group so…) We balance out the health aspect with several cases of Labatts.
Instead of a 10-gallon hat, RDJ’s sportin’ a 2 key bowler.

Vince, please add the word ‘tofurkey’ to the spam filter. Thanks.
dude, if you’re going fake meat at least use Seitan, tofurky should be a war crime.
As long as we’re banning fake products can we ban the use of words like “Sanka”, “Herbal Cigarettes” and “Canadian Beer*”?
*all brands apply
Mark Wahlberg has a few recommendations on where to get fake meat.
There’s a “6 pack of LaBatt’s” joke here somewhere……
“so you see, Holmes, a man was found passed out in this very bed, but did not live here. Curious”
A healthy meal in Canada means they concentrate on not opening the next LaBatts until the previous one is actually empty.
P-Diddly, look up about 10 comments. Stoney already found it.
Looks like the costume design from Chaplin with just a slightly bigger hat.
I don’t really have jokes for this one. Fuck it Dude, let’s go bowler.
Sherlock Holmes and the case of Jude Laws Missing Career
When I first saw these pics I was thinking “fuck he’s off the wagon again”
Last Picture:
“So the little boy thought he was real, but it turned out he was a robot!”
RDJ’s Sherlock Holmes smokes an oddly shaped pipe for the times.
RDJ’s Sherlock Holmes solves the mystery of Heath Ledger’s death and finds out it was Jude Law.
I wasnt aware that The 7% Solution was a blend at Starbucks
RDJ’s Sherlock Holmes outlines dead bodies in coke, then rails that shit.
RDJ’s Sherlock Holmes doesn’t carry a magnifying glass, he carries a pocket mirror.
Not to be confused with “Spurlock, Holmes”. A documentary about fast food in East LA.
I thought Chaplin had that little mustache.
Eibz, you’re thinking of Hitler.
Oh, yea, that happens a lot
Eib is ALWAYS thinking about Hitler.
Only when I’m awake, Luch
Sherlock Holmes’ Adventure to the Methadone Clinic.
RDJ’s Sherlock’s partner’s name is Datsun and he slings rock, son.
My favorite thing is the back to back title pairings of a line from an Adam Sandler sketch to a Lord of the Flies reference. Which means, as much as I enjoy FD now, I would have totally loved it in 6th grade.
Eib, RDJ wanted the moustache rewritten to be a beard, which is apparently when they hired Jude Law.
Downey: (laughing hysterically)
Law: “Oi mean, ‘e put ‘is wanker inside of that bloke Madonna!”
New Up!
Act 3 Scene 1 INT Sherlock grabs the old caretaker by the testicles and threatens to feed him to turtles.
Jump cut. Jews counting money.
Jump cut. Black people doing drugs.
Jump cut. Soccer player hitting someone.
Jump cut. Brain hemmorage.
