Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[ChopinGal]

Actually UberSG-1Fan is the Royal Photographer. I'm just one of her many apprentices.

You are the Royal Nanny, though, are you not? I'm made some adjustments - sorry - must have taken one too many swigs from the royal liquor cabinet.

You can post it on the thread, and I'll download it from your post - or you can send it to me in a PM or an email (if you don't want to post it on the thread).

k, i'll post it here. it's real small and rather simple, but it's what came to mind immediately and stated what i feel.

Thank you for being an actress, Amanda, otherwise I, and MILLIONS of others, wouldn't have been able to know you.

Love,
MajorSal (Sally)

More than one director has said that when they don't know who to put the camera on for a closing shot they turn to Amanda. She has such great facial expressions and those eyes....

I agree, Amanda acts so well and makes you feel
what she is feeling from just watching her face.
I've always believed that the eyes are the windows to your soul and Amanda has beutiful eyes so her soul is beutiful also and we all know she has a great big heart.

If I haven't made one for anyone on the list and you would be interested in having one, please let me know. Also, if you have an idea of a good picture, please send me that as well. If you'd rather use one of your own banners or add one for yourself, please feel free to send me the link so that I can add it to this list.

Well this is something I've been working on for awhile. I've been having difficulties finding pictures that I think go well with each title, so I haven't finished some of them. But since this list was added today I thought I'd go ahead and post what I have so far.

amazing...wanted to give you greens but had to spread it first

Curse my empty Jello bucket, I'd defiantly be repping ya then!

OUTSTANDING!!! What fun banners. Appears you've found lots of good pics to use and they all match their owners so well. Great job. Couldn't rep, have to spread it around.

Words fail me (for once) - that is absolutely superb!!!

Unfortunately I can't rep you either, so I guess you'll just have to settle for whatever I can sneak out of the Royal Liquor Cabinet on Saturday.

Charlie, you just reminded me of a thought I had the other day (and since I think so rarely, it's worth mentioning) ...

Whatever Astro/Keeper puts together from all of us will be a labor of love, for sure, knowing how invested Astro is in this thread. However, if this booklet or portfolio is done well it really becomes something special that AT, herself, (or even her publicist) has probably not had time or thought about doing: it becomes a review, a snapshot, of her portrayal of Sam Carter.

This could become a scrapbook to show Olivia one day - this is what your mom did for a certain part of her acting career! I think we should dedicate the compilation to Olivia from her mom's fans. How lovely that she will one day get to read what many people thought of her mom - Amanda's influence on others and her professional ability in bringing Sam to life. This is just a thought, but it has been on my mind. One day, years from now, mom may want to share some of her legacy with her daughter ... and she'll have our little contribution to help her tell the story of "Sam and the Stargate".

Something quite innocent, a first post by Major Sally just admiring the "character of Sam", started an amazing thread. Then Major Sam gave us the idea for "Samanda" and we jumped on it and all kinds of fun things began to happen. Fans started to bring in bits of themselves (humor, great discussions, sarcasm, wit, originality, artwork/photo manips, screencaps and captions) ... and many kind words and compliments helped to bring out some gifts that people didn't even know they had!

But I see something even more ... many of us have noted that many internet threads sometimes take a nasty turn and dissolve into a great deal of noise. I think, just by writing about Sam/Amanda, we have managed to incorporate some of her own generous spirit and good will on to this board. She is a very fun-loving and kind person (by all accounts and observations). And I think that there's a lot of that here with the back-and-forth comments and teasing and exchanges that go on. It's wonderful to see and experience. User-friendly cyberspace!

So, I think that we are heading in the right direction by reviewing some of the past posts and extracting some of the unique "moments" of hilarity, discussion, debate, admiration, etc. which highlight just why we think Sam is such a great character! And, Astro, I'm willing to commit some time to this, behind the scenes with you, (now that our spring semesters are coming to an end).

Awesome post, and yes I agree with you...this thread is such an awesome place to be! I mean, I was terrified when I first posted, but everyone's made me feel really comfortable and at home. And I'm so honoured that I may have inadvertantly inspired you to post that beautiful train of thought! I think that post should get a mention in the compilation.

Well actually I suppose the Royal Jester is kinda scary... (/me remembers back to Drunk!Jester at the Samanda Gala)

Guess who was seen recently? None other than the Copter Lady!

Sam has been tirelessly fine-tuning, testing, and flying her naquadah enhanced copter. She decided she needed some time off after all her challenging tasks. So, today is a holiday. Sam is having fun and doing what she loves.

Omg, awesome! I have a request though, replace the CarterCopter (not that I don't like it, its very cool ) with an F-302 and instant Pilot!Sam wallpaper for the masses!
