Seriously COOL Sherlock Vid

[rusty_armour]

I've been meaning to post this vid for the last few days. A friend of mine sent me the link, and I think I've watched the vid at least seven or eight times since then. Although the friend in question isn't a Sherlock fan, she is a vidder and a fan of lim. What will probably strike you the most about this vid is the incredibly fast cuts that are edited with excellent skill and care. And lim's choice of music is ideal for Sherlock Holmes -- in any incarnation.

BTW, this vid doesn't contain any spoilers for the second series, so it's safe to watch if you haven't seen the three most recent episodes.

Oh peachy, it's blocked in the US.

*facepalm*

It is? But it's YouTube. Surely government restrictions haven't been carried that far. I wonder if a direct link would work. Try clicking on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzJcpi4fkn8 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzJcpi4fkn8).

Nope. Still blocked. Something about SME and copyright laws.

Oh, no! I'm so sorry! :-( Uh, I know it's possible to download vids from YouTube. I wonder if it's something I'd be able to send to you or if it would be too big. I'll give it a shot and we'll see.

Oh don't worry about it! I'm doing my typical procrastination from attacking a scene in the new fic. Actually I have a serious cell phone question I need answered that seems to be blocking me from continuing forwards with a scene... or else I am using it to procrastinate some more....

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

Actually, I just sent it to you, though you may or may not be able to play it. And I totally understand about procrastination as I'm the Queen of Procrastination. *g* I also understand about being blocked because of some technical question. I was experiencing that recently, though I think I've figured out the answer. Hope you can work out your cell phone research woes.

[theteej2.livejournal.com]

And I got it and it worked, Whoot!

Yeah, hopefully the mods will approve the research post soon enough for a reply. WE shall see. In the meantime I need to strand Lestrade in a canoe...

*weg*

Strand Lestrade in a canoe...? You are such a tease! *g*

[theteej2.livejournal.com]

Oh my dear, you don't even know the half of it! Mwhahahahaaa!

WOAH!!!!
The Beeb should use this as a trailer!!!!

It's brilliant. :)

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

Oh, yay! I'm so glad you like it! :-D And you're absolutely right! This would make an awesome trailer!

Ooooo! Would it contain spoilers for the second series? I'm still trying to get iTunes to download episode two and three. Although to be fair, it's probably my computer. I'm going to do some overdue maintenance this weekend. Then I'll be able to go back and read and watch all your Sherlock related recs!

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

*Smacks forehead* I knew there was something I forgot to include in my post! No, it doesn't contain any spoilers from the second series. Everything in the vid is from the first series, so you can watch it in complete spoiler-free security. :-) And I'll add a note to my post letting people know that it doesn't contain series two material.

I hope the episode downloading goes okay. And I'd certainly be happy to pass along some recs if you'd like. I usually bookmark the stories I love on AOOO (http://archiveofourown.org/users/rusty_armour/bookmarks) and Pinboard (https://pinboard.in/u:rusty_armour), but they may not all be to your taste. I can put together a little list of stories I think you might enjoy when and if the time comes. :-)

That is very cool! Thanks for the link.

My fave Sherlock vid is this one, but It does contain series 2 spoilers:

Holy crap! That's brilliant! I can definitely understand why it's your favourite Sherlock vid! Thanks for sharing your link as well! :-D

Yes, this is a cool vid. As you said, so well edited and well-suited music.

[rusty-armour.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, karen9! :-)
