Facts About the Sweetie

[przed]

A few brief facts about the Sweetie:

1. He loves Doctor Strange comics. Like, really loves. He's always quoting "by the hoary hosts of Hoggoth," one of Strange's catchphrases, to the point where I didn't even have to look that up.

2. He really, really has taken a dislike to Benedict Cumberbatch. Hates him, hates Sherlock, hates him a lot.

3. He has just found out that everyone is expecting an imminent announcement at Comic Con that Cumberbatch will be playing Doctor Strange in an upcoming Marvel movie.

A fact about me:

1. I am a very bad person, because I'm enjoying his outrage and disappointment far too much. *g*

I don't know who Dr. Strange is (ouch! don't hit me!!!) but - disliking Benedict Cumberbatch is a thing? Because he's one of the few newishly prominent actors who can actually act...

Ah, Sweetie - be nice!

Strange is a character you'd know if you were a Marvel geek--like the Sweetie--so don't feel bad about not knowing him. I wouldn't if I wasn't living with a Marvel geek. *g*

See, the Sweetie (who is usually a bloke of discernment) is convinced that he can't actually act. Or at least not very well. I know! He's mostly alone in that room. Which is causing him to entrench his position rather than re-think it. But then, it took him five years of living with me to admit Viggo Mortensen was a good actor, and 15 years and Game of Thrones to come around on Sean Bean. I'm hoping he'll recant eventually. *g*
