benedict cumberbatch? HOW GOOD IS THAT SERIES OH MY GOD SWOOOOOOOOON everything about it!! i'm completely enamoured by the way they do the on screen text, its all poignant without being obvious/tacky (or something, well it's a hell of a lot better than the usual camera pan to a phone with a stock background image & oversized chat-speak) - ok this is kind of petty BUT he's just such a great smart ass!! & martin freeman is such a cutie!! omfg
(also, totally ate up the two robert downey jr films om nom nom)
Why is he so pretty? How does he manage all those perfect expressions and the perfectly-timed snark and dear god I cannot wait for Season 3. The camera-work is frigging awesome, eh? And Lestrade is good and I like Molly too, and Moriarty - perfect. NOT TO MENTION, Watson. Although I keep thinking of him as Arthur Dent. But he is awesome.
And yeah it was totally the movies that got me into it. RDJ & Jude Law, oh man. How does Jude Law make a moustache look sexy? I never thought they were before.
Also the actual Arthur Conan Doyle stories are pretty damn good too, been reading those off Project Gutenberg.
In short: I am hooked. I need to be up in six hours to go to work, but I think I'll just read some more Holmes/Watson fic first.
^____^ i think, now this is just a hunch but i do suspect that he may be a professional. & so cute in panel shows (when he hosted have i got news for you
( ... )
Even RDJ can't pull it off like Benedict Cumberbatch. He's so not tall and lanky enough, for one. And the accent - BC has the intonation honed to a fine, fine art. He has a lisp in real life, you know, oh my god the things the fangirls are doing to him *______* Panel shows, what? Will have to hunt them up
( ... )
I've only seen EP 1 of Season 2 after marathoning S1. Two more to go. Do I speed up and jump into fandom. OR DO I GO SLOW AND SIGH AND SAVOUR? Confusion.
I recommend you don't read the comments above, there's spoilers in. Possibly it is to late. guidelined was in the same boat, but she's watched them now.
Oh those last two are marvellous. You must watch them. It's a busy fandom, so I guess it depends how much time you have for a new obsession!
