Excitement all around!

Matthew Vaughn will be back to direct the XMFC sequel! He will back, he will back, he will back! *bounces like a bunny on crack* It's official now: link. Man, I can't remember the last time I was excited to see a director come back, not an actor. That's so awesome! He and Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy worked together so well and their ideas of where to take the characters meshed perfectly! I'm so happy, it's like Xmas in January!

And I found Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Collection with Jeremy Brett in my mail box today! *bounces some more* Wonderful! Truly wonderful. I want to pet the box set and coo like a demented pigeon.

Sherlock Uncovered

I still can't watch The Reichenbach Fall as a whole, not yet, it's just way too heartbreaking, seeing all the pieces fall in place, knowing to where it leads. It really hurts. It's a wonderful episode, wonderful because it awakes these emotions, I just need some time to pass before I can sit down and watch the episode from the beginning to the end. I love to watch the first scene with John, then the one where John tells Sherlock he trusts him and then the ending: the roof scene and the last one. Those, individually, are painful enough but I don't start bawling. But if I watched everything that lead to them... Man, waterfalls! ;_;

On the DVDs, there's only one extra, a documentary called Sherlock Uncovered - similar to Unlocking Sherlock which is a fantastic documentary about the filming of S1 that should be available on YouTube in 3 parts.

( What I loved best? )

But what really got me was what Steven Moffat said at the very end:

These are still the formative years of Sherlock Holmes. The most important thing about this series is not that it's updated, it's the fact that those two men are still young and they're still at the beginning of what they don't yet know is going to be a lifelong partnership.

Aww. This made me feel all warm and fuzzy and wonderful!
