Are you sure that’s the correct Stardate? :)

A better question is ‘why should anyone care?’

I thought young Sherlock Holmes was an unusually good movie tho it did take a few liberties with Conan Doyle. That was probably necessary as he had to make a movie which was technically before Holmes and Watson met.

Still it was a very well done movie. He also did a short run TV show of Young Indiana Jones which I also liked but the public never caught on. I think if it had run longer they would eventually caught on to it.

True. The ending was supposed to lead to a Moriarty-type movie but Alan Cox who played Rathe, did it exceptionally well. Damn endings. It’s like the ending to 1982 The Thing’ and you were wondering if both Kurt Russell and the other dude were either infected or survived.

I don't think it begged for a sequel. It was meant as a hypothetical prequel to the already existing Holmes canon.

That's the way I always viewed it anyways...

IMHO, after Jeremy Brett's Holmes no one ever need make any more movies or series again.

Good movie. I wouldn’t count on a sequel though considering how long ago the movie came out.

The movie stiffed at the boxoffice, so no sequel.

If you, like me, need that Holmesian fix, try Youtube links to ‘The Dark Beginnings of Sherlock Holmes’. Good stuff, with a Doctor Bell as Doyle’s teacher in solving murder mysteries.
