"I liked Moore's Bond better than you did, but, again…
"Well..if you insist on being negative...:)"
Not negative. practical. I know of the graphic novel on which this is based. Didn't like that as well.The trailer is exactly that to the nth degree. Clearly,the trailer shows Holmes and Watson more of a…
