Pictures of the past: Amanda Tapping and me/I in 2003

[dieastra]

After we had bought tickets, booked accommodation and transport for the convention with Don S. Davis (which also had Teryl Rothery, Suanne Braun, Jay Acovone and Frida Betrani, but I didn't take any pictures with them) suddenly another German convention organizer appeared. With a convention that had Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, JR Bourne and

Amanda's lovely! Is there anyone from Stargate that you didn't get to meet but would have liked to?

[dieastra]

Yes, she totally blew me away. Also, you should see her together with Richard Dean Anderson. They are very close friends and share the same kind of humor.

Yeah, there are a few left which are missing. The actors of Jacob Carter and Bra'tac. Tony Amendola had been scheduled for a con but then had to pull out, that's where we got Jay Acovone (Kawalsky) instead. I have no idea whether Carmen Argenziano even does cons? I've never seen anyone meeting him.

I would have also liked to meet John Sheppard and Rodney McKay, aka Joe Flanigan and David Hewlett. They both actually were once in Germany but sadly I could not go that year and so far I didn't get another chance. Maybe one day!

Other than those, I really have seen pretty much everyone.

Aside from the main cast, Tony and Carmen would be top of my list - I loved both characters. I see Tony occasionally on Once Upon a Time, which always pleases me. JR Bourne too, because I just adored Martouf. I wish he hadn't been killed off. I'd like to meet the actor who played Baal too, because he's rather sexy for a Goa-uld! Oh, and Walter and Sergeant Siler! And Doctor Frazier... I guess I love them all, lol!

Maybe one day you'll get to meet at least some of the ones you haven't met yet. I hope so anyway.

[dieastra]

Yes, yes and yes - I think you will enjoy the some pictures I will post very much *g*

Ba'al was very sexy indeed. I saw pictures, they already had designed an action figure of him, but sadly it never got made. I would have loved to get that one.

Amanda Tapping so soooo lovely! I honestly think there is no show or movie or whatever I wouldn't watch with her, even if it were a three second cameo. I just love her, period.

I must admit that I hadn't been much of a Sam fan before I met Amanda (I was always very focused on Richard Dean Anderson and Jack LOL) but meeting her here really changed my opinion of Amanda. It also showed - again - how different an actor can be from his role! She was so open and warm and smiling all the time. And happy about all the gifts she got. I have seen her twice more since, both times together with Richard Dean Anderson, and it is very obvious how much of chemistry they have, a big close friendship and the same kind of humor. Who knows, if she hadn't been already married when they met *g

I own Sanctuary on DVD, I must admit. It is one of the worst, most badly written show in the history of television. The dialogues are cringeworthy, the overall plot is ludicrous, the characters superficial and it makes you want to weep for the sake of mankind.

But Amanda Tapping is sex on legs, Jonathon Young is both hilarious and sexy, and the people who are actually in this show have so much fun , they love the whole project so much, it just makes it a pleasure to watch regardless.

I would SO LOVE to resurrect this show and write for it to give it the good scripts these actors deserve!

[dieastra]

Jonathon Young is that guy that looks a bit like Daniel? That's what he reminded me of anyway. Yeah, he was kinda cute. I really have only seen the first two Sanctuary episodes. The next week, I forgot to turn in, and the week after that as well, and then I thought why bother with it anymore

[invsagoth]

That's awesome! It's neat how many people you've met. :3

[dieastra]

I'm just starting, you haven't seen half of it yet lol
I am putting all my pictures into a photoalbum at the moment and it has hundred pages, which are already filled! I need a second one now as the recent Fedcon pictures where I jumped on John Barrowman's back don't fit in there anymore.

Granted, I also put some other stuff like tickets and flyers and documents I got for winning the video contest, but in general that means about hundred pictures. I was VERY astonished myself! It's not hundred different stars though, some I have met more than once.

She's beautiful, inside and out!

[dieastra]

She is indeed!
