Adaptations of the Sherlock Holmes series have been popular since cinema became a popular art form, with multiples versions of the classic detective saga appearing over the last decade.

Benedict Cumberbatch and Robert Downey Jr. have both appeared in the title role in recent years, with Martin Freeman and Jude Law respectively playing the brilliant detective's physician foil, making the characters ripe for satire.

Unfortunately for Ferrell and Riley, critic aren't finding humor in their adaptation either, with Rolling Stone saying that Holmes and Watson 'is so painfully unfunny we're not sure it can legally be called a comedy.'

Another reviewer, Danielle Solzman, tweeted, 'I should have waited before putting up the worst films of the year because #HolmesAndWatson was one epic pile of cinematic disgrace and an insult to the legacy of Sherlock Holmes.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
