Star Trek deleted shower scene

Forgive me if anyone else already posted this. I finally got to see Star Trek with my friend, the Swiss Army wife, who generously shared this totally gratuitous deleted clip of a half naked Benedict Cumberbatch in the shower. Cumberbitches enjoy! although apparently he says we must call ourselves Cumberpeople. (Perhaps we can all be post feminist after all!)

We meant to go and see Epic but it was fully booked so I gave way to the Swiss Army wife pleas and we got tickets for Star Trek. My experience was, as I anticipated, made interesting by a running Piglet commentary: "I'm bored. What did he say? Can we leave now? What happened then? Why is he so cross? Eurrgh gross [at any snogging]" At least afterwards she said it was a good film and we were able to go home and watch the first Star Trek movie. (During which she also said, "What did he say? Why did they do that? Eurrgh gross.")

Sorry for being MIA this week! I am up to my ears in piglets and sausages (not made out of the piglets!), and marking and ironing. The Fella has helpfully sent an occasional text (e.g. during Star Trek: "I tried to phone. Where are you? [translation- why are you not chained to the oven]. I'm going out for a drink. Don't worry about my food, love." (I didn't.) I had to go out all day and teach last Saturday, and my journey was enlivened on the train travelling out by a bunch of lovely lads drinking Strongbow at 11 am ("Allright my love?" "Yes, thank you dahlinks!") Then on the way back I fell into conversation with an ex soldier and we were able to compare sporting injury scars on our legs. His was much more impressive than mine, although I'm not sure it was the scars the rest of the carriage were staring at boggle-eyed <snerk>.

And today we went to see Epic with other friends. It was really romantic with a gorgeous older fairy, er I mean Leafman. Ah, it's a hard life for we MILFs in half term, LOL.

back soon! Miss you all.

Ooh, delightful! Thank you for that, Naoko!

I saw the movie, too! Maybe we unintentionally had our virtual movie date after all! We'll have to chat about it later ...

Definitely! Next week I will be free free free! Well, apart from the usual sandwiches, sausages for breakfast, ironing, laundry ... LOL.

The deleted scenes looked pretty tame to me.

I think you gals are pretty hard up if that ten second look at a guys wet chest is winding you up.

Batteries are cheap at the dollar store you know.

Feeling a little insecure there, LC? Sometimes less is more...

Insecure? Nah, you're talking to a guy who has to listen to how hot Rob Stark is during every episode of Game of Thrones. I could care less what the guy looks like, all I'm saying is its hardly a hot scene even with the less is more theory.

So I have been out of mainstream comics for awhile. How long has Sue been being drawn like a sex symbol?

Well, that one's fan art (although a particularly good example thereof - so good, in fact, you've given me the perfect excuse to post it in a larger format... ).

I've always found Sue hot, even in the Jack Kirby days.

Susan Storm was so hot that she had an Atlantean prince drooling after her (Namor, of course). Oh, wait. Did I just reveal my geekitude?

'Course, I can't blame Sue for preferring a shape-shifter who can make any particular part of his body grow. I seriously doubt she ever left the bedroom unsatisfied.

Geek rejoinder: Real-life cases suggest that particular use of Mr. Fantastic's ability would destroy, not augment, their relationship.

One of the first recipients of a full penis transplant had it removed electively because the feeling of "otherness" freaked his wife out. Apparently, on top of psychological imprinting, we grow psychologically accustomed to/attached to/dependent on our partner's physical features. Change those features too extremely and you challenge the partner's ability to cope.

Ah, but, in the context of superhuman endowments, this would not come into play. Sue married Reed long after she was aware of his abilities, and would have thus taken them into account. So, her husband's ability to alter his endowment would have been a factor of her attraction to him. It's not the "he as he is" argument that matters as much as the "he as he can be."

Geek +1

Fair point.

'Course, from the male perspective, the fact he could still be playing on the X-Box in the living room while discharging <snerk> his conjugal responsibilities would be a bonus...

But that is what broke up Dr Manhattan and Silk Specter 2...

I did say from the male perspective. Manhattan couldn't understand what the fuss was about. The classic male response: "I'm here, aren't I...?"

HAH! I just knew it was an Artgerm creation! (Sorry to intrude on your geeking , but I just had to geek on the art.)

That video does things to me. I've lost track of how many times I've watched it.

Cumberbitch until the end.

Yeah, Emily, in the absence of more piccies of Lovecraft's super bod, which I know from previous exciting viewings on other threads doesn't need any enhancement, we have to make do with what we can get.

Feel free to post more lovely piccies of your tattoos here, LC! Serious admirer.

Oh, apparently we are can be Cumberbuddies, although I too personally prefer Cumberbitch.
