Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

    It felt ahead of its time because it was basically a tech demo showcasing their 3D modeling abilities. It was partially a foray into video media, but it was mostly a “hey, look what we can do”. It came out 17 days before Final Fantasy X, which was their move into much more realistic graphics and longer cinematic cutscenes. It was basically an ad to convince people to buy the next 100 hour game.

    Still a great movie tho. Shows how far you can go when you’re truly passionate.
