Richard Armitage. 'Nuff said.

Tue Jun 30, 2009, 3:00 PM
You know, this entry was just going to be his name, as I think it's rather self explanatory--but I think I will elaborate a little bit.

I'm in love with Richard Armitage. That's it. 'Nuff said.

Well, I will continue--is it the tight, shiny leather pants from Seasons 1 and 2 of Robin Hood (an absolutely horrible show that I nonetheless loved simply because of Richard)? The sexy black Fabio shirt from Season 3? The unwashed raven hair (who cares if it's cheap dye?)? Those creepy but sexy steely blue eyes, that beautiful hooked honker, those wonderful lips that are thin but not unsexy, the hawlyshitzomg?

It's been a while since I've been a hardcore fangirl (let's recall Channing Tatum from 2006), but I think the bug has bitten me again.

And he's just such a darling. Granted, it's easier for him to be one since he's a BBC actor, not all that famous globally, so he doesn't have to deal with paparazzi and legions of creepy fans (well, like me), but you know how some of those fans can be, a la John Lennon...

Anyway. Well. Richard Armitage, folks.

I also think he would be THE perfect Cadvan--as in, the character from Alison Croggon's Pellinor books. I was dubious when I first heard his name, oh, two years ago? I'd seen him once in one episode of Robin Hood in 2006, the season 1 finale (when I was vacationing in Spain and watching Sky Movies), and I didn't find him all that great. Well, keep in mind that at the time I was what, eleven? And still in love with Sean Faris, or Michael Phelps, or whatever nonsense...But I've seen the light now.

I've been head over heels for that man for years now. Numminess personified. You should watch North and South with him, HOT damn, does he make a fantastic Thorton. Mmmmm.

And you're right! He would make a fantastic Cadvan! I kept picturing him in my head whenever Cadvan was mentioned. :XD:

O.o HE actually would make the best Cadvan! (although Viggo Mortensen has the awesome voice and musical talent that might just make him a better choice...)

I must admit, Richard Armitage is probably the reason I watched as much as I did of the BBC Robin Hood - that and the stupidness of the characters.
I recall one scene:

Robin: We mustn't let them see us together
Marien: No you're right...
*she leaves, and Robin rides up in front of a guard on the town's main gate. Marien RUNS BACK, AND KISSES HIM RIGHT IN FRONT OF A TOTALY OBLIVIOUS GUARD before leaving again and Robin going into the town.*

:lmao:

Richard Armitage:D I agree with you on that one:) He was what made Robin Hood good... He died in the last episode (sorry if that was a spoiler) and I wonder how many watchers they're going to keep if they make a new season.. Have you seen North and South and The Impressionists? He's great in both, though North and South is still my fav!

You are so not alone in this! He's amazing in North and South.

Have you seen him in North and South? And have you seen the interview with him in the bonus material? :aww: Well, no more words necessary, so true.

Yup, I have, it was the first thing I watched with him in it. I wasn't a fan of Miss Hale, but Thornton--yum yum.

Nopes, I saw the episode and soon as it was available for download. I confess I teared up when he mentioned Marian--felt stupid doing it, since Robin Hood is such a silly show, but nonetheless. North and South was the first thing I saw with Richard in it (apart from that season 1 finale), but I haven't yet seen his Monet impression, no.
