YES. Bedhead included a link to this yesterday, but I couldn’t help myself. Any excuse to discuss my beloved Benedict Cumberbatch!! These are the covers and some of the exclusive photos from the new (Collector’s Edition) of Empire Magazine, an issue devoted to Star Trek Into Darkness. I’m including the other cover of Chris Pine too, but all I can really see is Cumby. I mean… look at him. THIS is why I’m not married. I go for haughty, scowling, bitchy, psycho men who look good in leather, turtlenecks and space-age handcuffs. Surely that’s a “thing” right? Like, THIS is the reason I’m so messed up as a woman. Because THIS gets me off. Whatever. I would rip that cowl neck sweater off of him and I would keep him handcuffed. And then I would have my way with him. Sweet Cumby. Sweet, handcuffed Cumby.
Here’s the longer Star Trek Into Darkness trailer. I still like the first teaser trailer more – it was more ominious, and it was so much more Cumber-centric. Of course, there’s still some decent Cumber-drama in this one. Can I just say? I know I’m an unapologetic Cumberbitch and everything, but Cumby looks like he’s genuinely doing a badass job in this movie. Like, he’s surprisingly awesome at even doing the physical part of the performance. It’s HOT.

A certain type of Brit is the perfect villain-Cumby is it in general, and in this movie-am counting down until May!

I’ve had an incredibly shitty week. That pic however just made it a little better.
Thank you Kaiser! And thank you Cumberbatch!

If you had a chance to see him as the Creature in the Frankenstein stage play (I saw the version in theatres, not the live show), then it’s no surprise what a physical actor he is. Man has thighs like tree trunks.

Totally agree, I’m not even put off by Chris Pine’s massive forehead.

“I wouldn’t kick either of them out of bed” – one reading of this could be that they are both in your bed to begin with and that just sets a whole new flood of fantasies in motion. Kind of a “good space captain/bad space captain” scenario…
… and we are just the martian b!tch they are fighting over. Mmmm.

If that is him in the top photo, he looks less alien than usual, which is a good thing.

What? He IS a really good actor — I’m not surprised at all that his performance looks badass.

Do you regret divorcing Chris Evans? Look how many women are falling for Cumby…
Report this comment as spam or abuse
No, I don’t. I’m beginning to think Evans was just lust, you know? That face, those lips…*sigh*
Cumberbatch’s bitchy personality suits my own (bitchy personality) better, non?
And I’m not affraid of these recent fans — I can slutshank them all to hell.

Though I must admit things will get really bad after Star Trek Into Darkness opens.
I have the feeling this will mean (for Cumberbatch) the same Thor meant for Tom Hiddleston — career-wise.
By the way, have you seen Twitter/Tumblr fans reaction to pictures of Hiddleston with a dark-haired woman (in two different occasions)? It’s disgusting!!! I swear I fear for anyone who ever dates that man.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Eve, I did not see it… I am trying to follow your advice to stay far away from them. When I go there, I just want to see photos and laugh at their level of crazy. Last night someone who was upset at his Loki’d MTV video created a page showing how upset she was…
Wait…What? wait…Dark-haired woman? and it’s not me? Hm…Now I know how it feels to be cheated on in public…Hahahahaha

I think her name is Sian Clifford. They attacked her on HER Twitter account and on Tumblr (as usual). Some girls truly went beserk…there was even one who wrote her (Clifford) and “open letter”. I was waiting for Ms Kay to talk about that, because she must have seen it as well.
It’s scary because all I had to do was googling the woman’s name and some of the first results were posts from Tumblr!!!
EDIT (most of these posts are a reaction to the hateful posts/tweets about her):

@Eve: They are insane. The first thing that came up was her twitter page and her own page. She is from RADA as well. I believe they have worked together.
These kids need to have a real life. Leave my man alone! I will grant him this free pass! hahaha
By the way, I’ve seen pics of them together on twitter before like 2 months ago I think…

Yes, they’re insane, but I think part of this (insanity) is his own fault — the way he addresses them on Twitter makes some of these nutjobs believe they are actually close.
It’s something Ms Kay and I have discussed many times here on CB (so I won’t labour the point — again! — on this particular thread).

D*mn! they are immature at best and crazy at worst. Gawd… How old are they again? They are just showing that:
1- their frontal lobes are not fully developed;
2- they have some personality disorder.
I will choose number one for now.
Poor Sian Clifford…Cannot even enjoy the free pass I am giving him to use with her.
Jokes aside… They look cute together and I believe they’ve been together for a while. The first photo that I saw of them together was during the London Film festival.
ps: no worries. This is a thread about Cumby. Sorry for digressing…

“ps: no worries. This is a thread about Cumby. Sorry for digressing…”
Nah…it was me who started. I should be the one apologizing.
Anyway, part of me would love to see their meltdown (in case it’s confirmed they’re dating), part of me would be REALLY worried about her.

Their meltdown would be worse than a twihard meltdown… Now I am fully embarrassed that I follow his career.
I don’t think they would endanger her, but we never know. It’s always better to have some precaution.
My threesome dreams (Hard, Hiddleston and me) just lasted 3 days…
Back to Cumby…I think you are right. Star trek will have the “hiddlestoner” effect to Cumby. *Shiver*

The only thing attractive about him is his voice IMO. I heard him speaking on Graham Norton the other night and eyebrows were raise. Who’d have thought such a sexy, deep buttery voice would come from such a slight of a man RAWR

He’s still a no for me. I’ll leave that to Eve. And as to you being messed up…eh. Hardy in that face mask as Bane is what first got me, so I can’t really say anything. Mmm…that mask was yummy…
Wait, what?! o_O

I think Hardy wearing that mask looked like Zoidberg (from Futurama)…*ducks and dodges Jenna’s daggers*
I wouldn’t mind sharing Cumberbatch with you though — we had a pretty amicable agreement about Evans, remember?

WHAT?!?!? You said he looks like who?!!? *deep breaths, deep breaths, deep breaths* It’s okay, I’m good, I’m fine. Fine. Just fine.
No thanks girlie, he doesn’t do nothing for me. I have Hardy and you have Cumberbatch. Our Stuart and Alexander. Perfect remember?

Only while wearing the mask!
Yes, I remember Alex and Stu. I’m waiting for HBO to air it again (I keep checking the programming).
I also found some of his movies on Youtube (Wreckers, Third Star, Hawking) — which isn’t great, but works as a temporary “solution” for my Cumberbatch problem.

I gave myself some of Hardy’s DVDs for Christmas and it’s been glorious. And they’ve been giving Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy on HBO. So I can watch both our men with horrible 70′s haircuts. It’s glorious.
As are those pictures, ONLY for me. Kaiser can sod off thank you very much. Mmm…Bane. I’ll take that man in any way. Mask, beard and all. UNF.

First trailer-definitely more ominous. Second trailer-just enough information to make me want to try to figure out who Cumby is was-rogue Starship commander or imposter; human or alien or AI android? His expressions and the way he stands reminds me of Fassbender’s android in “Prometheus”…
OMG-let the wild plot speculation begin!

does anybody know if benedict is secretly dating alice eve?? i always feel like there is some attraction between them. and i have to admit i don’t like her. she’s pretty and smart too i guess or else he probably wouldn’t talk to her because we know he likes his women super intelligent but theres something else i just don’t like about her.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
really?? where did you get the information?
Report this comment as spam or abuse
i’m probaby reading too much into it but i always feel like that their or his body language and face is different when they’re together. and every time he’s in LA he attends events or some kind of party where she is as well. there were events where it said alice eve attened this and that party last night and through twitter you could find out benedict was there too but there were only offical pictures of her. then there are things like going to a museum together or being her date to her movie premieres.

I’ve read somewhere that they’ve worked together before and are longtime friends. Having said that, if Alice Eve is hittin’ it with Cumby, I admire her taste…

I dont think it’s true. maybe it’s some sort of startrek promotion thing. if they were dated, why now? when they’re filming in august or september the rumour was benedict dating liv tyler.
