Sometimes you know a book was written just for you

And The Pirates! is a whole series of such books for me.

I’m not sure why the US release decided to go with the generic subtitle “Band of Misfits” instead of the more promising “In an Adventure With Scientists”, but that’s a small thing. So since you may not be aware, this is a story about some quite lovely pirates AND Charles Darwin.

-> Another trailer, this one with a catchy song.

I don’t know if everyone’s already heard about this movie, but I was just informed of it by a mention in a Penny Arcade news post. Not going to try to guess if this movie will be good or bad but I’m really interested in a movie that seems to focus more on the tough, roguish side of Holmes. I think there is the potentially for this to be very entertaining!
