warning, here lays a somewhat stupid rant.

I get that Benedict Cumberbatch has played Sherlock. And I, clearly, LOVE him for it. But don’t called him “Sherlock” if you see him in another job (be it film, tv show, raido play, or otherwise). You either say that character he played (For Example, Star Trek Into Darkness; Harrison), the actor’s name, or “hey, it’s the guy who played Sherlock!” But don’t ACTUALLY call him Sherlock.

It’s somewhat offensive, to an actor, to be only known by one character, or be limited to a character’s name when they clearly have more diverse roles (Smaug, per example. Or James in Third Star. Hell, look at his character in Cabin Pressure!), and that’s the only thing they’re “entitled to be called.”

To me, it feels somewhat rude. Take the time to look up the fucking actors name to address them by the correct title. Say it a few times over. Go on imdb and look up their roles. Something. Anything to not just call them by the same thing

And Benedict Cumberbatch is just one example of this! It happens to plenty of other brilliant actors who totally don’t deserve it and are fully entitled to having their actual name used in a conversation.

Maybe it’s just me? I don’t know. If you feel differently, pLEASE let me know! I’d love to hear opposite opinions on this one. But c’mon, guys. It’s frustrating.

Lemme know, yeah?

Look the Sherlock fandom has had three years and six episodes, if we repeat the same hopes and fears and go over the entire show in black and white and write infinite variations of the same fanfiction plotline, they’re not hurting you. Don’t be mad. Pity us. We have nothing else to do with our lives.
