Оп-па, slash fanfic goes mainstream?

IT’S shockingly eleMENtary, my queer Watson.

Super sleuth Sherlock Holmes is to be portrayed in a GAY way in Guy Ritchie’s new flick.

The fictional him-vestigator is seen SHARING A BED with his dear, dear, Dr Watson and also enjoying some man-to-man wrestling with his close chum

I thought it was going to be a couple more years before the movie-makers realize that hey, all those slash fanfic readers and writers have money and might be willing to spend them on something closer to their tastes. Guy Ritchie, obviously, decided to stake his claim first.

Good luck, and I can't wait to hear the 'we wrote about that 5-10-15 years ago!' outraged cries from the Holmes/Watson not inconsiderable fandom. :)
