Hello!

I do. Although I'v only managed to read one of Percy Jackson. But I do like Hunger Games and I'm a big fan of the quartets and duologies of Tamora Pierce. And then there's Robin Cook's series with Laurie Montgomery/Jack Stapleton and Laurie R. Kings Mary and Sherlock Holmes series. Just to name a few .

Hello...meanie. Making me chose *grumbles*

But since I have to...I pick Brett. Not only because of his tone, look and mannerisms but because he's working with the correct time period, saying Doyle's words and surrounding by a cast of characters that really round him out. Edward Hardwicke as Watson, Rosalie Williams as Mrs.Hudson, Charles Gray as Mycroft, Colin Jeavons as Lestrade and Eric Porter as Moriarty are awesome.

Rathbone and Cumberbatch tie for number two and great but they have the time period and feel, and the studio's desire to use the films as war propaganda in Basil's case against them. Its just not the same without hansom cabs and London fog. Not to mention Cumberbatch couldn't even say the immortal lines "You've been to Afghanistan, I presume."

McKellan was good, but for that time period, I love Laurie R. King's series so it doesn't fit my imagining of things.

Lee was also good, but the fact that he also portrayed Mycroft and Henry Baskerville to other works kinda dilutes his portrayal of Holmes. Not that seeing a really tall Mycroft called on the carpet by a tiny Queen Victoria isn't amusing.
