Thank You to Janine and RANet for this scan from US Weekly HERE
For couple of months I'm very busy, in stress and this has effect of my fangirling and other things in my life. For couple of months I was thinking that I lost something from this very special part in my life. I'm very happy from this whole Hobbit-thing, that Richard has already this big chance. I was waiting for this since 2008. But I hadn't much fun from new photos of Thorin and I was sad that this is almost the end of my being as RAfan, Armitagemaniac etc. I was thinking that maybe this is because I'm tired or I have not much time, but today I saw this little tiny new photo of Richard without beard, but with stubbles, short hair..and his ears almost killed me.
AND ALL THIS
FANGIRLING-FEELING IS BACK!!!!
I passed the test!!!!
Mat Kearney - Sooner Or Later
I'm trying to have back other things. But for now Good Night :)
RA past days, months and years filled with work, awaiting and ...as we know before North&South Richard was thinking about ending part of his life as an actor.
But Thank You to All Forces above our heads, there was decision one on a milion. Richard in The Hobbit.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey-From Academy Award-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson comes The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, a production of New Line Cinema and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM). Jackson returns to Middle-earth in an adventure that begins 60 years before the events depicted in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. The first of two films adapted from J.R.R. Tolkien's enduringly popular masterpiece, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey follows titular Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman), who-along with the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and a band of 13 Dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage)-is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. The film's ensemble cast includes Cate Blanchett, Hugo Weaving, Ian Holm, Christopher Lee, Hugo Weaving, Elijah Wood, Orlando Bloom, Evangeline Lily, and Andy Serkis as Gollum."
(Friday 13th on Comic Con is meeting with Strike Back stars... logically this is 3 season, but they are talking about 2.)
Peter Jackson is one of these directors who have vision, and playing in his movies can open road to other movies for actors. The VERY BIG KABOOOMMM can be after =The Hobbit in cinemas, but now Richard is part of the popculture, even after many years actors who were playing in fantasy, horror, sf etc. movies are big stars on Comic Con meetings. Richard's creation of the Thorin is the first full (in person and in voice) in history of the cinematography. Seriously I'm not interesting with this all 48fps matter. The story and acting is the most important thing. Look e.g. at movie Sucker Punch, great special effects, but whole movie is one of the worst I've ever seen.
I'm waiting for some more interest about Richard on his IMDB site HERE. Now is green 182 this week.
But much more about something new for Richard: series, movie or ...
2 years ago there were some rumours about stage play by Aphra Behn - "The Rover"
"Revealed that one of the options he is considering is a new production of Aphra Behn’s The Rover".
Is anybody remember about it?
The Hobbit premiere in Poland is December 28th 2012 ..... World is ending December 22st ...Thanks MAYANS!!!! :/
5 years of waiting!!!! And Nothing!!!
Still there is some hope :) that they only hadn't place to write something more.
I consider that I have to start collecting money for the Thorin action figure, cost can be something about 100zł/23Euro/$30
On eBay HERE You can see the dwarves on ... I consider this is some kind of a photo cinema flyer memorabilia. January 5th, 2012. Photos of the dwarves were first time online in November 2012. Flayer year before movie in the cinema, this is really something big!
RAfandom girls probably will be the first squeeing before the show :)
Interesting, because I was thinking about what next for Richard and about this post, when I waked up today!!!!! Richard is in USA today, so maybe there are some negotiations :) Some probably are gratefull that this isn't "Fifty Shades of Grey". ;D
WAIT!!!
"The film is set to begin shooting July 23 in Detroit."
WHAT!?? THIS YEAR???
This is really fast!!!!
So next year I'm going to the cinema on 2 movies with Richard :D!!!!!
Hard time for me. And it goes worst. Everything about money.. more lack of them. My bro still don't have job. I can't sleep. Every day I'm standing at 4 a.m. And I hate summer time and hollidays, because every year something not pleasant happends. But TheRApy works and I have something to think about.
I was on some meeting and that was boring so I started doodling. First was eye of the chicken...and it went to this.As You can see there is unplanned RA on it ;D
It's not so special like Richard's. I don't know how to draw skulls ;D with bones.
And not so advanced like art of Armitage's Artists or this one.
The caricature is probably from December 2008 from Daily Mail, but I'm not sure.
More than 120 000 000 views! ;D Better rating than Bimber!
Couple days ago (April 3th 2012) on NEXT MOVIE site Larry D. Curtis published this article HERE "Who Will Be the Breakout Star of 'The Hobbit'?"
About Richard
"Richard Armitage
This guy has fans and they're extremely devoted, but he isn't in the minds of the general public — yet. The "Captain America" star is rich with talent and his role as emotionally tortured dwarf Thorin Oakenshield will let him showcase his abilities.
Thorin is complex and conflicted, will have his fare share of screen time and will also be the most heroic dwarf in Bilbo's company. And, as we already know from the films' single trailer, he gets to use his trademark baritone voice."
And
"The Winner
Ultimately, being in these films is a career win for all of these guys. Others will benefit as well, but this group stands the best chance of reaping the biggest benefits from their work. They can also kiss privacy goodbye and can start planning, if they choose, convention appearances for the next 30 years.
In terms of skyrocketing career moves, Armitage will be the ultimate winner. Thorin will be a more important part of this film than many realize and the Shakespearian tragedy elements, with his talent and good looks, make this a perfect situation for him. Still, the rest of the group can console itself knowing they all will enjoy a pile of dragon's gold, fame and buzz."
I was thinking about it for these days. Em.... and I'll be very happy that Richard will be the Ultimate Winner.
I just don't want for him this same way as some wonderful actors had/have.
One of them is Rutger Hauer. This is amazing, talented actor, but he had no chance to play in movies which can really show his talent. He had only couple of moments in life to play remembered characters.
WARNING SPOILERS!
One of them is Roy Batty in Blade Runner from 1982.Blade Runner On Wikipedia HERE, on IMDB HERE. About Roy on IMDB HERE. "Roy Batty was the intelligent and calculating leader of the renegade Nexus-6 replicant group." The most remembered action.
The next one is The Hitcher from 1986, He played John Ryder. On IMDB HERE and on Wikipedia HERE
He was playing in more good movies, but... mostly not in main characters, or his characters were bad guys or he was in some not very complicated, buffed dudes characters who were shooting and kicked asses.
Second danger for Richard is to be in some kind of these same dudes habit, playing these same characters over and over again, only in different movies and he will be seeing only by perspective of Thorin character to the end of his days.
Like Mark Hamill. On IMDB HERE. Have You know his other roles than playing Luke Skywalker? Mostly he is using his voice in animations or videogames.
guess who is Joker here. See 1:25.
But for the differend people He will be always this Luke from Star Wars.
I just don't want these same actor's ways for Richard. I just don't want him only in documents for BBC or in audiobooks. Well I love them, but I want him in some wonderful movies! I really want to go to the cinema to see his movie! This is not only his work to do, but his agents too!
Somebody said that Richard will loose his fans by waiting or hidding.
Well He will not loose his fans, because "they're extremely devoted". I don't remember on which forum this was. We were talking about what Richard will do to loose his fans. And that were extremely awful things like killing someone or raping.
Well psychopath killers have their own fans too, like Charles Mason. He didn't have chance to be musician. He didn't meet on his way someone who will be interesting in his talent, so he made fans himself.
So I hope that Richard's agents have for him more interesting scripts like this Hobbit one.
