New Sherlock Holmes Movie announced, this is the lead?

Robert Downey, Jr. released a clip from the movie starring him as Sherlock Holmes at the San Diego Convention Center during a Comic-Book Convention.

Somehow, Robert Downey Jr. is not what I envision when I hear talk about a new movie about Sherlock Holmes. Of course, I'm predisposed to think Basil Rathbone. And I have no idea why he decided to show this at a Comic Book Convention.

From the Trailer, I'd say the Hollywood has attempted to turn a classic intellectual detective into an action hero. The movie might be good, but it isn't Sherlock Holmes.
