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.

Indeed, that movie is actually scary! Like proper scary, not how most movies are.

And there was a lot of cut content that was even crazier than what made it into the released film:

JFC. I wish I could have seen some of that. I think. Maybe.

Yeah, on the one hand it's absolutely wild and uses an incredible amount of unique work. On the other hand, it's absolutely wild and genuinely meets expectations for a portal to hell.

I'd probably want to see the full cut, eventually, but it'd definitely be an event.
