IS IT THAT SOMETIMES THERE IS RAIN ON THE ROOFTOP AND SOMETIMES THERE ISN'T!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?


(This is why I don't predict... because my OCD in concert with my blind adoration of everything Steven Moffat has a hand in will make mountains of molehills.)

Wait, what? When is there rain on the rooftop?

[goldvermilion87.livejournal.com]

It's really irritating. When there is a shot of Sherlock from behind... then it cuts to John, then it cuts to Sherlock from behind jumping off the roof. THe first shot of Sherlock there is rain. Then later there is rain when John is looking really sad and discombobulated.

This is like in the pool scene, there is a problem continuity error with Sherlock supporting the gun or not.

Drives me up the wall.

Oh, yeah. I hate those "either this is really stellar storytelling or really lazy storytelling" moments on TV.

And option number three:

I've watched this show more than even the editors.

Sorry to destroy your evidence, but I'm fairly certain I read how someone explained that there just was on and off raining the day of the shooting and that's why the rain's just in some shots...

Yeah, continuity errors like this make it really hard to search for the one real clue... (My bet's still on Sherlock crying...)

:-P

That's what I figured.

It worked out very nicely for them when John was sad though. :-)

My bets are on 1) Sherlock shaking Moriarty's hand and/or 2) crying.

The handshake was to give Moriarty the chance to check his pulse and realize that Sherlock doesn't have one, because he stuck that rubber ball he was playing with in Molly's lab up his armpit. And/or the crying is from the rhododendron ponticum he took in preparation for feigning his death -- it's a side-effect of the drug.

Oh!

I never thought about Moriarty knowing that he had no pulse via the handshake, but since there was a LOT of foreshadowing in A Scandal in Belgravia that HAS to be true. (I'm don't see how that works out for everyone... and didn't Moriarty initiate it? Would he be happy enough that Sherlock had ruined his reputation to let Sherlock get away with it? DOES THAT MEAN THAT MORIARTY WILL BE BACK? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

I'm sure he had the ball under his armpit, though . Patrick Jane dropped that one into my lap on the Mentalist episode the week after TRF aired in England. Which was awesome. And Sherlock just isn't a fidget, so there is no way that ball isn't significant... unless it's a red herring...

Ack. Now I'm trying to figure it out again, WHICH I PROMISED MYSELF I WOULDN'T DO!

(My philosophy -- you try to predict what will happen in the next season, you're setting yourself up to be disappointed. You just waited to be wowed, and you will be wowed.

Same goes for pairings. I will admit that it's a bit unkind of me, but even if ASIB hadn't been utterly brilliant, I would have liked it solely for the fact that it CRUSHED so many shippers hopes. [Even if those hopes should have been crushed in the first episode. But shippers gonna ship. Especially if they are slashers. And then people write fanfic about Irene telling John and Sherlock to get together, and I just shake my head and wonder if we aren't really watching two different shows...])

No, Kaitlyn, that's just your jam jar.
