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*

If I go to the cinema to see something, I rarely feel like I haven't had my money's worth but for that movie I'll make an exception - I was literally cringing in my seat, it was so awful in parts (gratuitous Alice Eve in her undies shot, I am thinking of you!).

As for Marvel, I've been flinging money at them for a while now but had thought Guardians of the Galaxy was going to be the one that broke the routine. And then I saw the trailers and just knew it wasn't going to be. So now I think it's going to be Ant Man as I just have zero interest in the plot line/characters regardless of directors.

Gratuitous Alive Eve in her undies was definitely egregious. ::gives JJ Abrams the hairy eyeball::

I've got a morbid curiosity about both Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant Man on account of the Sweetie. He's a big Rocket fan, so was keen when Guardians was announced. And it's a standing joke in our house that he bought the "Essential Ant Man" compilation when it came out. I love pointing out it isn't really that essential. *g*
