I just made an interesting observation...

I was re-watching the Hobbit when Bilbo was writing to Frodo that nothing unexpected ever happens to him. (queue Gandalf). That mirrors the reference John Watson makes when we first see him in ASiP.

I've been away for a bit so I'm not sure where this topic should go, but has anyone else every observed important lines for different characters that are so similar and also played by the same actor?

Nice idea. Have a look at my signature. The PE quote isn't in the film, just in the book, but it reminds me so much of Sherlock.

Sherlock: "Nobody could be that clever."
John: "You could."

Then regarding Benedict's role in Star Trek...
"Nobody could have survived this."
"He could."

Re: I just made an interesting observation...

Well, I've just watched Stuart, a life backwards and a few words from Alexander/Benedict kinda struck me:

"Was that suicide? I don't know. He didn't leave a note."
