Benedict Cumberbatch in “Star Trek into Darkness”. Perfect movie? Not really, but the casting pretty much ruined the movie IMHO. It was supposed to be Benicio Del Toro. I have no idea why they couldn’t secure him for the role, but the backup plan was like a wet noodle.

BDT would have been much more interesting. I liked the movie, but BC was a bit odd of a choice.

For me, he was one of the only good things in that movie. It was a departure for Khan, but I thought he did well with the material. In saying that, I lost interest with the other movies since that one, even though I enjoyed it.
