Sober vs. drunk Sherlock
He is just incalculably precious to me, both sober and drunk

chadwickboseman It is with immeasurable grief that we confirm the passing of Chadwick Boseman.
Chadwick was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer in 2016, and battled with it these last 4 years as it progressed to stage IV.
A true fighter, Chadwick persevered through it all, and brought you many of the films you have come to love so much. From Marshall to Da 5 Bloods, August Wilson’s Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom and several more, all were filmed during and between countless surgeries and chemotherapy.
It was the honor of his career to bring King T’Challa to life in Black Panther. He died in his home, with his wife and family by his side.
The family thanks you for your love and prayers, and asks that you continue to respect their privacy during this difficult time.

I am so, so, so sad about this.

Thanks for tagging me, @thepivanquisher!
1. Top 4 Ships: I’m a one-ship/fandom-at-a-time kind of a person, but if you forced me to choose beyond Johnlock, then I guess I’d say Joe/Nicky (The Old Guard) as well. Really no others on my radar at all.
2. Last song: That I listened to on purpose?? I tend to only really listen to music while I’m working out, unless it’s a (classical) piece I’m working on at the moment. I guess that means for working out… let’s see, I think the last piece that came on my “cardio” playlist shuffle while I was running this morning was Poker Face (Lady Gaga), lol.
3. Last film in cinema: Ha! My bestie and I just went the week before last when cinemas re-opened around here and saw Jurassic Park for $5. It was an amazing experience getting to see it in a theatre again! Made me feel like I was 13, which is about how old I was the last time I saw it in a theatre. :P
4. Last film at home: The Old Guard, which I’m very slightly obsessed with. Planning on a second watch tonight! Apart from films, my other new obsession to replace my quarantine obsession with the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen (RIP) is Chef John from Food Wishes. His silly, singsong voice and delightfully flawed cooking and dumb puns have totally won my heart, lol.
5. Currently reading: I actually just finished a re-read of Watership Down and I’m eyeing my new copy of The Testament by Margaret Atwood.
6. Currently craving: I’m actually super full. I invented a keto version of chicken parmigiana tonight (without ever having made the original, may I just add) and it was ridiculously delicious and I’m still full four hours later. Fun fun!

The Thing With Benedict Cumberbatch
…..is that if you put someone in front of his movies or his TV shows, and making them watch everything back to back to back to back, and you don’t tell them that Benedict Cumberbatch is any of the roles, I can pretty much guarantee that they won’t realize it’s the same actor, And if you show them footage of BC just being….BC, they might not believe you.
He DISAPPEARS completely into his characters and it is so unsettling sometimes. He’s a chameleon and it’s just astonishing to be his fan sometimes, especially when you’re a filmholic like me and try to think about the craft rather than just the movie.
No two characters are alike, no two characters have the same manner, no two characters even have the same voice or pronunciation, no two characters even look alike, which is really weird when you think about it! Yes there are hundreds of other actors who do the body transformation thing (Tom Hardy, Christian Bale and Gary Oldman come to mind) but somehow with BC, the change is so profound that you can’t even track it unless you’re really paying attention.
He inhabits every single molecule of whatever character he’s playing, and he will leave you convinced that he is whatever character he’s playing. Actually, he convinces you that he’s not even playing a character, that he is that person.
Scroll down and think about the fact that ALL the following are played by the SAME actor– like REALLY think about that.
And then, the loveliness that is Benedict Cumberbatch himself <3
PS: Making this post, I can’t tell you how many characters I couldn’t remember simply because I didn’t remember that he played them? If that makes sense– like Chrissie!
This list is by no means comprehensive but just a smattering of characters that he’s played. Im currently watching him as Khan (because why not) and can’t believe that it’s Benedict Cumberbatch.
Totally!!
The love of my life. Without rival. ❤️
