The Sweetie's worst nightmare has been confirmed: Benedict Cumberbatch is playing Doctor Strange.
Sweetie: I don't want Cumberbatch playing Doctor Strange! I'd rather they cast Howard Donald!
Ladies and gentlemen, Howard Donald exhibiting his considerable talents:

Oh, Howard.

And Howard, yes. Never grow up, lad... :)

I just had to google the looks of Dr Strange and apart from the actual Stan-Lee-drawings there were montages with Liam Neeson (!!!), Johnny Depp, and (my personal favourite) Joseph Fiennes. You can tell the sweetie it could be worse than BC. :D
Thinking about it...Chad Kroeger would be great in that role, no?? *evil cackle*
You know, I'm kinda glad The Donald's back to work - his twitter doesn't always benefit from his boredom. And, no, I think he should stick to his day job and not try acting...you know it never works when super heroes play super heroes... *G*
Now if only I could find out how to use my user pics in the LJ app...le sigh...
