After Kay and I watched our Sherlock Holmes (2009) DVD, I realized I didn’t have a DVD version of Young Sherlock Holmes (1985, fergoshsakes), which was just wrong. So I went to buy one …
… and was immediately amused by the covers — color, design, typography.
Even the backs have a similar design. A nice bit of consumer tie-in for a new movie with one 24 years (!) older, um, younger.
Two final amusing bits:
- Both movies are PG-13.
- YSH is a Paramount release; SH is Warner Bros. (Which is probably why the design is only similar, not identical).
