Please no, not another one.

I've just seen something that depresses me greatly. Another Sherlock Holmes show called "Elementary". I can see Sir Arthur Conan Doyle turning in his grave already. I guess it's only fair America has their turn after the BBC fucked it up last series, but with JOAN Watson as his 'sidekick', and the title being based on a phrase never actually uttered by Holmes, I can't really see much hope.

Please stop now and leave the poor man alone with his bees.

Film: The Lovely Bones

Why do they make films from books? They're never as good as the book, and potentially stop people from reading. Why would anyone want to read a book when they can sit back and have it wired into their brains without any effort whatsoever?

I understand things need to be rewritten and edited in order to make it manageable, but in doing so they take away the essence of the book, strip away it's soul and dump it on the editing floor. This film does exactly that.

Stop being lazy and make something new.
