Cinema Sleuths

The game is afoot! Between 2009-2012 Sherlock Holmes exploded on the big and small screens with the Robert Downey Jr / Jude Law film directed by Guy Ritchie as well as the hit BBC series SHERLOCK created by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. This week, we're looking at the bonkers era in which these mega-hit franchises swept the world before suddenly dropping off the face of the earth.

 

We're joined by Dr Mark Jones from the podcast Doings of Doyle and Sherlockian expert and BSI member Monica Schmidt.

This week, WE GO APE with CIMEMA MISFIRES as we look back at 25 years of Tim Burton's PLANET OF THE APES (2001), starring Mark Wahlberg, Tim Roth, Helena Bonham Carter, Michael Clarke Duncan, Kris Kristofferson, Estella Warren, and Paul Giamatti.

We map out the crazy road 20th Century Fox took to get there, the better sequel ideas that were ditched along the way, we discuss whether this film even feels like a Tim Burton project... and much more!
