Poll - The Results ARE ... Surprising?

  

The poll from the final day of FanstRAvaganza has ended and the results are in:


What really made me wonder was that "The Rover" had a slow start in this poll.
But understandable, as I like most fans from abroad would have a hard time to get to see it at all.

My Max did not hit the top three either ;o( No matter, I love Max (and my computer with the same name). I am glad that 5 merciful souls had pity with me and voted for him. (1 vote was my own ;o)

Top-three (four) winners of the poll are:


1. Leading TV role - literary adaption
On the last day 'TV - literary adaption' overtook Cinema - Jippeee another "North & South", no queue would be too long to keep me from seeing it.

2. Cinema - leading role
"The Hobbit" by far is not leading enough. Come on, producers, get your wonderful scripts out and cast Richard Armitage. The fandom is waiting!

3. Strike Back II + III / Theater production
The third place two options have to share, as they received the same amount of votes. In their kind they are quite different and compared to "The Rover", who had a slow start, at least for me the high result of the theater production was surprising.

The fourth place also is quite interesting. Once again, two options share the same number of votes: Leading role in TV-show (!) / Anything that comes along
For the TV-shows I can only recommend the FanstRAvaganza article by Traxy. I have not seen any of those shows and without a TV set only know some by name. I know that some or most of them have a German copy, which mostly is much worse than the original. So you see, I am biassed and not a reliable source to judge this point.
But on the other hand, the other option once again shows that Richard Armitage has an exceptionally loyal fanbase and he really does not have to worry which roles he choses.
At least most of us will follow, as long as he is happy with the choice.

One last point I must draw out of this poll is, that 10 voters (I must admit, I am among them) believe, Lucas North / John Bateman is not dead after "Spooks 9".
That is really a good result!

Thank you for taking the time to visit and vote! I hope you had fun with the choices and the result.

FanstRAvaganza 2011 - Introduction


FanstRAvaganza 2011 - The Major Fan-Event Begins !


It is such a great honor for me to be allowed to take part in this event and join such brilliant and experienced bloggers. (Complete List of participating blogs here.)
To see their plans and creative ways of finding topics to attract their audience and make every visit to their blogs worthwhile fascinates me greatly. I love being part of the RA-community and hope my appreciation and love for Richard Armitage and the community feeling of his fans and fellow bloggers shows in my blog and my contributions to FanstRAvaganza.
I hope you will enjoy the presented story, gradually unfolding in the next 7 days and finally, the identity of the mysterious "Max" (Maximilian), the name-giver for my new computer, is finally revealed.

1. Installment here: The Gold Card (Part 1 / 7)

But first of all, I needed some feedback from the source of admiration, Richard Armitage. I wanted to know, what he thought about my story "The Gold Card" and therefore held a short interview with him. (I am very grateful, that he supported me though all the inconvenience caused by the distance between Germany and New Zealand.)
Some excerpts I put together for you in the following video:
