Sherlock Holmes 2 has a title

After the release of the title for the Spider-man reboot, Warner has now released the title for the 2nd of the Robert Downey, Jr.'s Sherlock Holmes films.

Some people have called the title "lame" but I feel it's perfectly in keeping with the titles from the classic books. The title they have come up with is Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows.

The film sees Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law back playing Holmes and Watson with Stephen Fry playing Shrelock's smarter brother (as Conan Doyle described Mycroft). It also has The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Noomi Rapace, replacing Rachel McAdams.

Guy Ritchie helms a new action-packed adventure, following the world's most famous detective, Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.), and his longtime trusted associate, Dr. Watson (Jude Law), as they match wits with their arch-nemesis, the criminal genius Moriarty (Jared Harris).
