Talk:The Hound of the Baskervilles (2000 film)

Critique of Frewer's performance
In the entry, it's stated that Frewer's portrayal is "lifeless." Having just watched this version, I can only say that the entry's author never saw this version. In fact, Frewer's effervescence is nearly off-putting.

The so-called "References" at the end of the entry ---

The first one NEVER uses the term "lifeless," instead, he says that, to him, either Frewer or the director do not seem sure how to play Sherlock. What he says about Frewer's portrayal is anything BUT "lifeless."

The link to the second one results in an error stating that the page cannot be found and no longer exists.

As such, the use of the word "lifeless" is probably the entry's author's OWN opinion that is not supported by anything.

Therefore, I think that that sentence should be removed from the entry. 68.231.71.119 (talk) 21:51, 21 January 2017 (UTC)


 * It appears that someone slipped the word "lifeless" into the existing sentence about criticism which would explain why the references don't make this assertion. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 14:41, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

Editing Production and Reception Section, March 2018
Hello Wikipedians! I am a student working on this Wikipedia page for a university project. I have already added a few of my sources and sentences from my sandbox to the page. Feel free to take a look at what I'm going to add! I plan to add to the production tab and the reception tab as well as edit and add to the infobox. All of my sources are from my university's database and will be using APA citation. If anyone has any questions, feel free to reach out to me. Cheers! GeekChic710 (talk) 17:52, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Montacute House as Baskerville Hall
While the Production section states that a facade for Baskerville Hall was constructed, there are long shots of Baskerville Hall that are clearly of Montacute House in Somerset, England. That can be seen by comparison with images in Google Maps. (And IMDb gives Montacute House as a filming location.) So I have added that to the section. BMJ-pdx (talk) 01:16, 11 November 2022 (UTC)


 * WP:IMDB is not a reliable source and the link you added as a reference is dead. I searched for an archived link and found it only says "The Hound of the Baskervilles (2000) Montacute House" which doesn't reference your claim that it was used for long shots or for Baskerville Hall. I have reverted your edit. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 22:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
