@spiritcc look!

[amielbjacobs]

The Soviet Movie Club watches The Rezident's Destiny (/The Secret Agent's Destiny) (/The Station Chief's Destiny)! This is the sequel to the first Rezident movie. Unclear if it is still based on a book by General Oleg Gribanov of the KGB or if they've gone off-script by now.

@shappyshag Here's the post from @spiritcc that includes links to the New Russian Holmes (nrh) with English subtitles

Made some doodles!

Ok, I should probably explain my thought process. Granada Holmes was like "Haha lmao wanna see a smoke trick?" and I found it funny there isn't any actual explosion, but in NRH there is an explosion, and the one who made it was ya boi Watson, but then I remembered, "Mmm yes, NR Holmes also was a bit of a show off with his INSECTS instead of his chemistry skills."

i’d love to follow your adventures on this show lmao, i myself just went THIS HOLMES??? YEET on my first watch, or at least the first ep, so you’re already doing amazing :D

I am actually thinking about posting my reactions when I continue watching XD. Like I said I really don't get it but I think it's because I have been burned before (I have very very complicated feelings about Sherlock and not so complicated and not positive ones about Ritchie Holmes) or maybe it's the Peaky Blinders getup? No idea lol

The OTP

[incorrect-ritchieverse]

Watson: You have scurvy. You need to eat healthier, Holmes.

Holmes: No.

Watson: Eat your veggies.

Holmes: No.

Watson: The last person who didn't eat healthier after i told them to, died.

Holmes: Oh my god.

Watson: Drowned in a sinking boat.

Holmes: That sounds unrelated.

Watson: I sank the boat. Do not disobey me.

Panin Watson in a bad quality screencap is part of my header now! It might change as I progress thru the show and find a better Watson scene, especially one that fits with my red and white theme.

Also *cocks gun and points it to your head* go watch the Russian Holmeses.

[amielbjacobs]

Watch 'The Secret Agent's Blunder' / 'The Station Chief's Error' with me right now!

A White Russian spy is sent undercover into the Soviet Union under the direction of West German intelligence. Based on a novel that may or may not have been written by an actual KGB general, I don't know, I tried to find the source where I saw that and I gave up when I started to develop a headache!

I do not claim that this movie is any good and it will definitely include copaganda!

This is a last-minute watchalong for anyone who didn't catch this last month, so that we can watch the second movie in this series on Friday.

i’m in debt to anyone who actually decides to watch it, not many people are that brave to see some random russian tv show :D what episode are you on?

fahdjasjksfkl honestly in my case, if it’s a Holmes adaptation, then there’s a very good chance I’ll give it at least a try. Doubly so if I hear positive things about it, and since I’ve been following you for a while... yeah :D  I’m still on episode one -- I kinda started watching to procrastinate from learning for my finals yesterday, so it’s slow going at the moment, but I hope I’ll have more time next week!

Creator of a legend ..... 

Suddenly touched by fame - joy and sorrow of an aspiring author 

Outtake of NRH Halifax

Last time Dr Watson had visited The Strand, his publisher gave him some useful advice regarding the stories he wanted to write about Sherlock Holmes, the extraordinary detective with whom he shares lodgings at Baker Street 221b  (Advice at The Strand).

Dr Watson revised his story .... and it got published.

°

TBC below the cut  (with a lot of pics and all the spoilers)  …

Fierce knocking at his door and loud voices interrupt John, while he is drafting another story for The Strand.

His flatmate Sherlock Holmes and his landlady Mrs Hudson demand entry ... rather forcefully. A very angry Sherlock thrusts a newspaper under John’s nose. ‘Was it you? Did you do this? How dare you?’ Sherlock wants to know and without further ado he pushes the puzzled doctor aside and walks up to the window.  Mrs Hudson watches but remains alarmingly silent.

Looking for help, John turns to his landlady and wants to know what has happended.  ‘You’ve been touched by fame, doctor. Look out of the window’, she tells him calmly .... too calmly for his liking.

As it turns out, a crowd of people has gathered unter the doctor’s window. The moment Sherlock looks out, they start shouting his name enthusiastically. Some of them are waving newspapers in their hands. Outraged Sherlock shouts back at them ‘What do you want? Go away! These are all fantasies, lies! Leave immediately or I’ll call the police! Go away!’  ... without any success. 

‘What are you writing, Doctor?!’ Sherlock demands to know furiously as he turns again to his flatmate. ’You can fantasise as much as you want. You can write about how you dissect frogs. But do not suck me and Mrs Hudson into this abomination! Do not, I repeat, do not write the exact address!’ 

Then, as quick as Sherlock had rushed into John’s room, he’s out of the door again ... the doctor’s boxing gloves tucked under his arm. Before he reaches his own chamber, Sherlock turns on his heels again and calls John a ‘filthy hack writer’. 

Desperate John trys to calm the waves somewhat. He turns once more to Mrs Hudson and assures her that he never meant to insult anybody. Not the best idea, as he finds out immediately. ‘Really? Is that why you described me as an ancient granny?’ Mrs Hudson spits at him angrily. 

John has barely recovered from his shock before a still fuming Sherlock comes at him again and continues his rant. The doctor has hardly a chance to get a word in and Sherlock doesn’t listen to him anyway. He is convinced that his flatmate needs to be punished.

‘I’m going to teach you a lesson’ Sherlock announces emphatically. John stays calm and tries to withstand that storm of anger. Only when Sherlock hints at a  payment of ‘thirty in silver’ and calls John’s pseudonym ‘foppish’, the doctor's patience comes to an end. Apparently a boxing match can’t be avoided. 

(My humble guess .... that ‘foppish’ pseudonym is Arthur Conan Doyle  :)))

John has exceptional fighting skills. Compared to him, Sherlock is less than an amateur. One can safely say that the clever detective is quite talent free in all matters of martial arts. But then, Sherlock knows this very well ....

Calmly John puts on the first boxing glove and the next moment he throws it away with a cry of pain. ‘Well? How does it feel?’ Sherlock asks, both pleased and intrigued, while Mrs Hudson starts screeming in horror. ‘That’s exactly how Mrs Hudson and I feel right now!’, he adds with satisfaction. John is at a loss for words and examines his tormented hand. 

Sherlock carefully gathers his eight legged pet animal and vanishes inside his room ... once more he calls John’s literary activity ‘an absolute abomination’.

Meanwhile Mrs Hudson has regained her composure, but she’s still a far way from being pacified, as Dr Watson soon learns. ‘You paid for the flat until the end of this month. So you’ll have plenty of time to find yourself new lodgings.’ she tells John and rushes downstairs without a further word. 

With a deep sigh of frustration John returns to his own room. He takes the  newspaper with his ‘offending’ story with him. After risking a cautious look out of the window, John sits down and starts reading ...

The satisfied look on his face seems to indicate that Dr Watson ... alias ACD ... is very pleased with his first published story .... ‘A Study in Scarlet’.

The atmosphere of piece and quiet doesn’t last long though before Sherlock calls for his flatmate in a loud voice again. Stay or go .... that’s the question. 

Eventually John decides to follow Sherlock’s call. He opens the door to his flatmate’s room consciously .... and is immediately summoned for a new intriguing case. Sherlock’s rage and anger have dissolved into nothingness. 

But this aren’t the only ripples John’s newly published story causes. While Sherlock works on the case and eagerly searches a dark tunnel for possible traces, Inspector Lestrade uses the time to exchange some words with Dr Watson. It becomes a somewhat one-sided conversation .....

‘Wherever you go, poets are everywhere .....’, Lestrade utters cryptically. John has no idea what the Inspector is driving at. Not yet ... but he feels a bit uneasy .... watching Lestrade fingering his gun in thoughts.

'It’s just me going to work and I don’t write any poems there’, the Inspector continues. And John’s uneasiness increases when Lestrade wants to know how much a writer gets payed for a line. 

Finally the Inspector comes to the point: ‘By the way. Why don’t you write about us? About us simple folk, who guard your peace every day? It’s true, we’re not angles, we’re the same common people who, sadly have to do with criminals, with murderers and with offenders. And there you are, writing some filth about us. For ten pence ...’  

Thankfully John is spared the answer because by now Sherlock has finshed his investigations inside the tunnel and interrupts Lestrade’s outpourings. A change of location is necessary. 

But John is not yet off Lestrade’s hook. At the next best opportunity the Inspector grills the doctor a little bit more.

John tries to enjoy his meal while Sherlock is experimenting and Lestrade continues reading the doctor’s first published story. “Across this bare space there was scrawled in blood-red letters a single word - RACHE” .... ‘You sure can exaggerate’, comments the Inspector. And later he asks sceptically: ‘The murderers are masons?’ John is still at a loss for words.

Luckily the trio has to change the location again. Then the case reaches its peak and there is no time for expressing literary opinions anymore. 

The next day comes. The case is solved. Inspector Lestrade thanks Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson for their commitment. He also adds a stern warning - mainly directed at John - if anything regarding that case should find its way to the newspapers.  

Inspector Lestrade is in a hurry then, because he has to welcome an apparently special and rather distinctive guest at the Yard. A tall, lean man steps out of a carriage. He wears an Inverness Cape and a deerstalker cap and he smokes a pipe while greeting the Inspector gravely. 

Watching the scene, Sherlock has a sudden and quite unexpected proposal for his flatmate. ‘In your stories, John, if you still plan on writing them ... describe me as him.’

John clearly is very pleasantly surprised. Who would have predicted such an outcome after Sherlock’s fit of rage only a short time ago. John has already ideas .....

And he really can call himself a very lucky man, because Mrs Hudson’s wrath has subsides as well by now. :)
