Benedict Cumberbatch/YMMV

• And the Fandom Rejoiced: Weak, Benecio del Toro is dropping out of the next Star Trek movie. Wonder who's going to be replace-OH MY GOD.
• Estrogen Brigade: The Cumberbitches (aka BenADDICTS).
  • "We're a very loyal, very, unlike the name, unspooky bunch of very nice girls who have written to him and said, 'Look, we don't mean to scare you, we just like your work.'
  • The explosion of Cumberbitches post-series two of Sherlock can be be summed up thusly:

"Benedict Cumberbatch isn't a man. He's a situation that me and most of my friends are all having."

• Memetic Mutation: When referring to him, things must be addressed as "Dat Hair," "Dat Voice," etc.
  • Or beginning with "Cumber," as in "Cumberbum" or "Cumbershirt."
  • On the Sherlock DVD commentary, he stated in a very odd voice that "Rupert Graves is good at football and has five children." And Tumblr exploded.
  • Also, he's an otter. Compounding this with the idea that Martin Freeman looks like a hedgehog, and the fan-art has gotten appropriately adorable.
• Uncanny Valley: Those who do not find him attractive think of him as this. Has been described as a humanoid lizard or cat wearing human skin.
• When He Smiles: A genuine smile can make this man breathtakingly beautiful. Just watch Sherlock!
  • His smiles in Hawking (for instance, around 3:25 here) are positively Moe.
