Would joining him in a beautiful Greek resort help you along?

Suppose it was his last holiday. Looks like he never stopped working after that.

In the fist video Olivias skirt(?) looks exactly like his shirt.
Just saying.

Nooo, there is nothing wrong with me.

Davina · June 3, 2013 4:45 pm

Nah! He went on a roadtrip in the US straight after finishing Star Trek. There were photos and stuff on Twitter etc. Simon Pegg was with him (amongst others).

besleybean · June 3, 2013 4:48 pm

Yeah but I think that was only an overnight trip...how I would have liked to have been with them!

Did you get out your magnifying glass and examine everything all over? I kinda wanted to, but thought I might try for some restraint for once. No idea why. *shrug*

Yeah, somehow I can't muster up any sympathy for the man. A multi-millionaire with loads of good friends, family that loves him, a thriving career, he's got the world by the tail. I'm convinced that if he doesn't have a wife and kids yet, it's just because he's too busy to fit them into his life, which is, after all, made up of the same 24 hours a day that we all have. Something's gotta give, and so far it's the wife and kids thing. But not take a vacation? We're not privy to what really goes on in his life, and I'm sure he has loads of time between projects to take a few days, if he wants. He's just not going to places where the twitter tweakers can follow him, as it should be.

Ok, ok just one more TTSS.... man, I just love how well done their looks are for this film... and Ben was great in it...

(hey, it's... that stare! that same stare!) ;D

SusiGo · June 3, 2013 5:56 pm

Thank you, Russell, beautiful pic. They're both great in that film.

I'm pretty sure that's a wig/hairpiece. It would have taken him ages to grow his hair that uniformly long in the front. It reminds me of the old Beatles haircut days in the 60s, lol, except back then, anyone with red hair never would have gone for a Beatles cut, unless they were willing to dye everything dark brown. heh

Here's an interview from the time of the shooting where he is discussing Sherlock. Same hair, just without the blow-drying and product. Those sideburns might be another story, though!

SusiGo · June 3, 2013 6:07 pm

Just coming up from the floor. Thank you, Mysteria. If you watch the Ratting documentary you can see him wearing his hair like that plus sideburns.

Ah, I have watched it but didn't notice. He is really beautiful in that video, I think.

BTW - someone mentioned vacation. This photoset is reportedly from last June at Coney Island. Imagine he just walked around Coney Island and no one noticed him.

SusiGo · June 3, 2013 6:55 pm

Nice pics, especially the one on the right below. White tee, nice sunglasses, what more do you need?
And as for the record - I do not pity him. Not at all.

Mary Me · June 3, 2013 6:56 pm

No, I do not picture myself walking through the city and meeting Benedict randomly, I do not at all.

SusiGo · June 3, 2013 6:57 pm

Shall I send him over to Bonn?
