Too Good To Be True?

Every so often a film announcement comes along with such a seemingly perfect casting and teaming of ingenious creative visionaries that there's absolutely no way their efforts wouldn't create the best movie of all time. Unfortunately, history often proves differently. For the time being, let's all hope and pray the pairing of Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen for a comedic revamping of 'Sherlock Holmes,' produced by Judd Apatow, will deliver to the extent that it ought to. Baron Cohen is set to play the lead and Ferrell is to play Watson, Holmes' noble sidekick. That alone is one of the most ridiculous images ever to have entered my noggin and I'll be severely distraught if this isn't the comedy of the decade. Please don't hurt me again, Hollywood.

Full story here.
