    An aged-up Jude Law is also a good choice b/c Watson, in the original stories, is also written as just-past-prime good-looking and, more importantly, much more at his ease with ladies than Holmes. Downey, Jr. isn't really lank enough to play Holmes, but I'm willing to bend the image for him, as an actor.
