Exclusive: In a highly competitive situation, Imagine Kids+Family has landed the filmed content rights to Ali Standish’s upcoming multi-book series The Improbable Tales of Baskerville Hall, which tracks the imagined origins story of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s fictional characters, for development as a TV series that builds an integrated Arthur Conan Doyle universe spanning all his works.
The series follows a young Arthur Conan Doyle as he leaves his family to attend Baskerville Hall, a school for the extraordinarily-gifted, where he will seek to solve many mysteries with the help of his new schoolmates and teachers. Here he’ll meet the characters that will become the inspiration for his many famous novels — including Professor Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, and friends like James Moriarty. At Baskerville Hall, Arthur uncovers a mystery that will lead to an epic adventure and will be the springboard to the creation of an inter-connected and far-reaching Conan Doyle universe.

Sherlock is, of course, by far one of the most successful British dramas of the decade, so it’s fair to say that co-creators Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss probably don’t have too many regrets. The writing has been lauded by critics and fans alike and their casting of Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman has created two of the most in-demand actors around. Still, Gatiss has revealed that he does regret at least one thing: killing off Moriarty.
Fans will remember that Sherlock’s nemesis, James Moriarty (Andrew Scott) shot himself in the season 2 finale, as part of a complex plan to get the detective to kill himself. Seasons 3 and 4 then brought the character back in the form of flashbacks, dream sequences and even video messages recorded before his death, but looking back at it now, it seems that Gatiss wishes they’d just let the guy live.

This being Issue 5 means this is the last issue, in these days of “5 issues make the perfect graphic novel collection size”. Sometimes that artificial restriction does impact on the story, as pacing goes noticeably awry when too much padding is thrown in, or two issues worth of story in one issue. Mycroft Holmes has avoided all that luckily, pacing has been spot on, each development spinning out of the other organically, and I am guessing this series will be as enjoyable as a single session read as it has been in five bite size chunks. Time to chew on that final piece then, let’s hope it’s tasty.
For those that came in late, buy the collection if possible as you’ve missed a lot, but basically Mycroft Holmes has been on a mission to find The Apocalypse Handbook.

If you think it’s hard to keep track of all the bad guys that show up in “The Lego Batman Movie,” you should see the original list of villains that the filmmakers wanted to give cameos. In addition to the usual Batman bad guys, like the Riddler, Bane, Two-Face, Catwoman and Poison Ivy, several villains from other popular films make appearances. These include Voldemort from “Harry Potter,” the Wicked Witch of the West from “The Wizard of Oz,” Sauron from “The Lord of the Rings.”
“The Lego Batman Movie” director Chris McKay recently told EW that he had high hopes that some bizarre bad guys could also work their way into the story, including Daniel Day-Lewis’ Bill “The Butcher” Cutting from “Gangs of New York,...

For the 50th anniversary of the premiere of “Star Trek” on Sept. 8, Rod Roddenberry revealed to IndieWire what he loved as a “Star Trek” fan — not just as the son of series creator Gene Roddenberry

“People always ask who’s my favorite captain, and I say Picard because if I’m on his ship, I’ll probably survive,” Roddenberry told IndieWire. “I think the first Enterprise would’ve been blown away a long time ago. But [the Prime Directive] was for the most part always there, that they shouldn’t interfere. Although, they always did.”
Roddenberry also weighed in on five of his favorite episodes of “Star Trek.” Check out his picks and clips of each below:
“City on the Edge of Forever”
From “Star Trek: Tos,” Season 1, Episode 28
Premise: Bones somehow goes back in time to the 1930s, where...

Chicago – Different isn’t bad and might be great, but you’d better have an irrefutable reason to change what was never broken. Campy being the only word to accurately convey this alternate-reality version of Sherlock Holmes with an original script, writer Greg Kramer and director Andrew Shaver try too hard to be different without ever figuring out why.
Play Rating: 2.0/5.0
This Thanksgiving, spend your time anywhere but with David Arquette’s “Sherlock Holmes” at the Oriental Theatre. Thankfully, the one-week limited engagement only runs in Chicago from Nov. 24 through Nov. 29, 2015 until it tours elsewhere.

20th Century Fox and Davis Entertainment are planning a new film adaptation of Alan Moore's acclaimed historical fantasy comic series "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen".
The first volume of the original work is set in a steampunk Victorian London where literary characters are real. In the story Mina Murray, Allan Quatermain, Captain Nemo, the Invisible Man and Dr. Jekyll team up to stop a war between two tyrannical villains (James Moriarty, Fu Manchu) for control of London.
The work was previously and very loosely adapted in 2003 into a feature that proved to be Sean Connery's final appearance in a live-action film. The hope was the film would launch a franchise, but reviews were bad and the film pulled in only $180 million worldwide.
An attempt was made to adapt the property into a TV series in 2013, but the show was not ordered to series. John Davis is on board...

If you’re not sure what a ‘magnificent bast*rd’ is, then you may need to check your bookshelves or your DVD racks: it’s one of the most popular archetypes in fiction of all kinds, a staple of cinema, in particular, since the advent of motion pictures.
Magnificent bast*rds are the epitome of bold charisma, capturing the attention and even admiration of the audience. They’re not always hip or cool, but seem to transcend image or fashion: however they portray themselves, they’re always consummate show stealers, always one step or more ahead of their enemies, always compelling and audacious. Magnificent bast*rds are usually plotters, manipulators, capable of breathtaking acts of glorious mayhem in the service of whatever their goals and objectives might be, and almost always come out on top – and even in defeat, a magnificent bast*rd will usually pull it out...

The Great Game: A Professor Moriarty Novel by Michael Kurland An offshoot of the Sherlock Holmes universe, this is a pastiche focusing on Professor James Moriarty. It is the latest in a series of novels written by Kurland dealing with the Professor’s adventures, and putting him an entirely different light to that portrayed by Conan Doyle. Strict Sherlock Holmes fans will not like it – but anyone who enjoys Victorian mysteries undoubtedly will! When an unexpected visitor is shot by a crossbow bolt, while standing on the doorstep of Moriarty’s home, Moriarty starts to investigate. At the same time, his […]...

What is it about kids in horror movies? Ever since those skin-crawlingly scary twins in Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, nothing unnerves me more than children chanting eerie lines of dialogue. So, if this latest trailer for Hammer Horror’s upcoming demonic possession flick The Quiet Ones is any indication, I’ll be better off staying far away from the film when it opens next week.
There’s not much new information in this third official trailer for The Quiet Ones, but it’s clear that there is going to be some freaky stuff going down in the isolated country estate where college professor James Coupland (Jared Harris, who recently played another professor – the villainous James Moriarty – in Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) retires with several of his most devoted students to study the case of a young girl named Jane (Olivia Cooke), who is exhibiting symptoms of demonic possession.
