Oi, Darcy, you slaaaaag!

Guy Ritchie’s latest effort is coming out soon, a “re-invention” of Sherlock Holmes. I’m inclined to hate it already. Okay, so Star Trek was recently re-imagined, and I loved that, but for some reason I don’t trust Mr. Madonna’s Ex to handle this cherished character in the same way. Especially since Guy’s suffered the fate of everyone who gets near Madonna, and lost any talent he may have had.
Madonna is a career vampire, she feeds off those of others. Just think of all the people she’s been closely involved with, and then think of what happened to their careers afterward. Britney Spears and William Orbit (remember him?) to name but two. Mere husks now. I think it’s some kind of alchemy involving the blood of African orphans.
Anyway, it has got me thinking what other classic literary works Ritchie can get his hands on after Sherlock Holmes…
