I’m Gonna Knock You Out

Richard Armitage 30 day challenge

2.) Q: The role which made you fall for him

A: John Porter

the eyes still have it
the eyes still have it

By the time I saw Strike Back, I had seen Richard Armitage in a few different things already and really liked him. But Richard as John Porter just plain knocked me out!

His courage

running headlong into danger without a second thought

His ethics

never straying from his views of right and wrong

Margaret, this is "looking back"
Margaret, this is “looking back”

His tenacity

always moving forward no matter the obstacle

His jeans

no explanation necessary

He had me at…Fuck* (you thought I was going to get all sentimental, didn’t you?)

*I would just like to note how difficult it was for me to stay appropriate during this post. I deserve a medal.

    1. LOL! seriously though, I really do like Porter for more than his looks. it’s that internal struggle that Richard does so well, how Porter is accused of being a machine made for killing but he is also a human being underneath.

  1. Definitely my hero 😉

    Now I don’t want to whinge, Kelbel, especially as I’m having trouble dragging myself away from the Guy gif in your last blog, but you missed an opportunity for an all time great gif of John Porter – the smile in episode 1

    Just saying 😉

  2. John Porter is definitely worth falling for. He is a great guy – unfortunately not Guy, though 😉 Anyway – I am surprised you did not comment on the little peekaboo bit of belly visible in the hands-up pic…

        1. no, not NC-17 worthy, just innocently naughty. I generally try to stay respectful while still having a bit of fun but John Porter can make that difficult at times…not to mention all those “backside” gifs floating around out there from Lucas! and “Between the Sheets?” ugh. what’s a girl to do?

  3. I’m being tested, aren’t I? first I can’t seem to write a post about John Porter without drooling over the jeans, then Marie makes a post on her blog about not being able to “just say no” to pics of RA’s behind,

    then Guylty links a Tumblr dedicated to it in the comments over there, and now Cill won’t let my mind crawl out of the gutter over here! *throws hands up in air* I surrender!

  4. That scene kicking the door down- yum. So decisive and determined, not to mention the tight jeans and t-shirt combo!
