Hello, CinMod

In (moderately) relevant things, this is the South Korean trailer for the BBC show Sherlock. Apparently whoever does the trailer editing for this particular station is a fanfic obsessed teenage girl. THE MUSIC! It's only mildly relevant to the subject, but I think it's hilarious, not to mention I'm obsessed with the show. It's fairly easy to mess with a show like this, particularly considering they let the homoerotic not-so-sub-text run pretty much rampant, with actors like Benedict Cumberbatch (who has the kind of intense gaze that burns holes in my tiny girl heart), and Martin Freeman, with his little quizzical wounded puppy face, not really helping. I'd be interested to know why it was cut together this way, whether the person who did it genuinely thought this was the main thrust of the show or if they were trying to appeal to a particular audience (the mad teenage fangirly one?). The kinds of shots they've used, much like the ones in the Law and Order video, are actually ones where they're all 'I deduce she's from Cornwall, she's been in London four hours and she's having multiple affairs' about a dead body, and aren't even remotely romantic. That 'look of disgust on account of having just seen a man's body washed up on the shore of the Thames' is easily transmuted into 'sorrowful look reflecting on difficult love for a man who's kind of a jerk' with a bit of romantic music and a dissolve. I think it's brilliant, and since the reason I found it was it was tweeted by Steven Moffat, who wrote the show, it's obviously something they were well aware of in making it.
