#FanstRA: I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello!

-

Well, what a week! I haven't had much time to look at other posts, let alone respond to comments here, but that means that FanstRAvaganza 3 is far from over. While the actual event is over now, the posts are still there to read and to comment on, and that goes for all the participants, not just myself.

Thank you all for stopping by and reading what I've had to say. I've tried to mix business-as-usual with FanstRAvaganza, which means a lot more work, but it's worth it. Big, humongous thanks to the organising crew behind this year's event, and amongst those, I'd like to give honourable mentions to Servetus, who has done the nigh impossible here and managed to herd cats organise bloggers, and to CDoart, for keeping track of all the posts. Thanks also to all fellow participants, old and new. You're all awesome, and it's going to be lots of fun catching up with everything in the weeks, and probably months, to come.

For those who would like to stick around after FanstRAvaganza - I hope you will, I like the company - this blog is mainly focused on film, TV and book reviews. For the most part, film, as I get through them quicker. *cough* There's a new review every Monday to Friday, and they're not genre specific either. There's occasional philosophising about Richard Armitage, and I'm trying to read every officially published Jane Eyre derivative I can get my hands on. And review them. So feel free to check back whenever. :)

And like the title says, there's no need to say goodbye, let's say hello!

Here's what's coming up this week:

  • MONDAY: The Flight of Gemma Hardy by Margot Livesey - a Jane Eyre derivative from 2012!
  • TUESDAY: Pearl Harbor, in which Michael Bay attempts an unconvincing love triangle.
  • WEDNESDAY: Fragile, horror story with Calista Flockhart, that is very close to being completely awesome!
  • THURSDAY: How to Go Carbon Neutral by Mark Brassington, a starter guide on to how to live a more eco-friendly life.
  • FRIDAY: The Devil Wears Prada, which is basically Ugly Betty without the braces.
Also, there's a cute video lined up for Saturday, and on Sunday, there's a new post in the Swedish Ways series. (Swedish Ways is this year's theme posts - days special in the Swedish calendar, and why. Last year's theme was Neo-Pagan holidays.)

    My, you are a busy blogger! I still have to read all your F3 posts. At least I can comment easily here. I wasn't able to at any Wordpress blogs. I was getting pretty cranky about it too. Time for beddy-bye! ;)

      I know! It's always so frustrating when you have something to say and the commenting system won't work!

I thought there should be a list like this. Maybe there already is, I've just not seen it yet. It's not a massive list by the time of posting this (25 points), but I'm hoping you'll help me come up with more so that one day it will be. :) Last updated: 14 June 2012, the list so far: You know you're a Richard Armitage fan when ...

Richard Armitage will never be himself on TV

One of the interesting comments Richard Armitage was when an interviewer asked him, because he's a great dancer, is if we'd ever see him on something like Strictly Come Dancing . His response was that we'd never get to see Richard Armitage as Richard Armitage on TV. Basically, he's not the kind of celebrity to show up as soon as someone waves an invite to a reality TV show. Richard Armitage as himself. On telly. But not in a reality show. Things that make me love and respect the man: +1! Before I read that interview, I was thinking about him on Strictly , and then started to think of a host of other reality TV shows and whether or not he would be a suitable candidate. This is what I came up with ... Top Gear What it is: This is a car show, or ... a comedy show with cars in, depending on how you look at it. Rupert Penry-Jones and Peter Firth came on it to promote series 7 (?) of Spooks , so why not Richard Armitage? He does drive a car, after all ... Why ...

And you call yourself a Richard Armitage fan?

It's been just about a year since I wrote that post about IF Richard Armitage was gay, what's it got to do with us ? This has since become the most read and the most commented post on this blog, for better or for worse. Hotly debated issue, apparently. The thing that strikes me is how people look upon the subject. A lot of comments were very supportive, saying if he was gay, it might spoil the illusion somewhat, but all in all, if that's who he is, then that's who he is. Others claimed to have evidence of him being a homosexual, but from what I gather, it's really only based on hearsay, rumourmongering and/or "gut feelings". Personally, I'd be interested to hear a gay man's views on this. Why? Because everyone in the debate is female, and the vast majority, if not all, are straight. Ever heard the term "gaydar"? Whose gaydar is more likely to be accurate - a straight female's or a homosexual male's? I know who I'd vote for...
