| Young Sherlock Holmes | comment |
A 1985 mystery/adventure film directed by Barry Levinson, Executive produced by Steven Spielberg, produced by among others Henry Winkler (yes, that one.) and written by Chris Columbus, and based on the classic characters of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. An admittedly non-canonical What If? story, it depicts a young Sherlock Holmes and John Watson meeting and solving a mystery together at a boarding school.It was the first film produced by Amblin Entertainment to receive a PG-13 rating, and notable for including the first fully computer-generated character: a knight composed of elements from a stained glass window. The effect was created by Lucasfilm's new computer graphics division headed by a then-up-and-coming John Lasseter, which would later become Pixar. The SFX earned the film an Academy Award nomination, but was beaten by Cocoon.No connection to the Young Sherlock Holmes novels. | |

Inspector Lestrade | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_1300dc5c | comment |
Inspector Lestrade: The Trope Namer shows up, though since its a prequel he's only a Detective-Sergeant. Lestrade is fairly amiable to Holmes and is said to have lent him books on criminology, although he's annoyed by Holmes' attempts to bring random cases to his attention and brushes him off until he get pricked by one of the hallucinogenic darts. At the end of the film, he's promoted to Inspector after getting the credit for the Cult's defeat. | |

Villain Opening Scene: The pre-title sequence involves Mrs. Dribb drugging Bentley Bobster by shooting him with a dart tipped with a hallucinogenic substance; this first causes Bobster to see his dinner as alive, and later believe that his room is set on fire, causing him to throw himself out of his window to "escape". | |

Adaptational Friendship: With a We Used to Be Friends slant as well, Holmes is initially good friends with the school's fencing instructor Rathe, until the reveal that "Rathe" is actually Ehtar, a vengeful cultist who then when defeated by Holmes takes on the identity of his Archenemy "Moriarty" in the Sequel Hook. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Professor Waxflatter's flying machine. We're shown several unsuccessful attempts to make it work early in the movie as some sort of Running Gag that stops halfway through the film. Then Holmes uses it to gain up on Ehtar as he flees with Elizabeth. | |

The Eyes Have It | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_23301541 | comment |
The Eyes Have It: The scene where the knight in the stained-glass window leaps down to do combat with the poor priest. Notable because it is specifically later revealed, like other deaths in the film, to be caused by a hallucinogenic drug. What the priest saw was in fact all in his mind, but since it made him flee the church and run under the wheels of a moving carriage, he still ended up just as dead. | |

Mythology Gag: Plenty of them. For instance, there's an in-passing reference to Mycroft Holmes when Sherlock is expelled and boarding the coach for home (only for Waxflatter's death to interrupt him) — he mentions that his brother will be informed of what's happened. | |

It Will Never Catch On: Two famous items associated with Holmes are featured here: the deerstalker cap and the curved pipe. Both are treated as ridiculous in-universe, particularly the pipe, which Watson has to buy so Holmes could get information. Holmes thinks the pipe in particular is ridiculous, while he inherits the cap from Waxflatter. At the end of the film he takes Rathe's Inverness coat as a trophy completing his iconic look. | |

Sherlock Scan | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_3ec18c6f | comment |
Sherlock Scan: A school-aged Watson transfers to a new boarding school and meets Holmes for the first time. Holmes deduces Watson's name, home county, father's occupation, and Watson's love of writing and pastries. He only gets Watson's name wrong (he guesses James instead of John) because he only saw "J. Watson" on Watson's luggage and decided to go with a common name starting with J (John would have been his second guess). The mistake with the name is likely a reference to The Man with the Twisted Lip, in which Watson's wife refers to him as James, a mistake that has confounded Holmes scholars for decades. | |

Don't Think, Feel: Inverted during the climax. After Rathe has captured Elizabeth and is going to drown her in hot wax, Holmes and Watson start panicking about what to do, and they only get anywhere once they start taking things slower and observing their surroundings. In another inversion, Rathe also frequently chastises Holmes for using emotion rather than thinking things through. | |

Spin-Off Babies | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_c8cdde7c | comment |
Spinoff Babies: This movie is a pastiche supposedly telling the early life of Holmes and Watson when they first met as teens — and apparently before Holmes figured out how to solve crimes by logical deduction. (Unlike most examples, it's actually quite good.) | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_d397657d | comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: Holmes kills Mrs. Dribb by blowing one of the thorns from her blow gun into her mouth. This is not only painful, but likely causes her to experience the violent hallucinations; either way she sets herself on fire. | |

Those Magnificent Flying Machines: In this case it's a pedal-powered one that Professor Waxflatter attempts to use to fly. Holmes uses it later in the film to reach the other side of London. | |

Flanderization | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: This film does use the Flanderized version of Watson who's overweight and rather clueless, but it's somewhat justified by being Watson as a schoolboy, and by the climax, does prove to have a crafty side when he rescues Holmes and Elizabeth at once. Presumably he's got years (and a stint in the military) yet to grow into the more fit and savvy Watson the original was. And in the end, Watson narrates that this first adventure with Holmes IS part of what helped him go from a weak, easily frightened boy to a man. | |

Mushroom Samba: The peculiar way the victims are killed — each is hit with a blow dart dipped in drugs, and the resultant hallucinations drive them to their deaths as they try to flee them. Also happens to Holmes, Watson, Elizabeth and (offscreen) Lestrade. | |
