Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[NZNeep]

I want those boots! Does anyone know the designer/brand? And if they are under $5?

ETA: I would just steal Amanda's, but her feet are probably a lot smaller than mine. Do you think Eh-T would flash me the badge if she caught me surreptitiously measuring my foot up against Amanda's at AT5? We are the same height...

Does it make me a bad fan that I was more interested in the background of the outside photos than AT? I've been to Paris and was trying to figure out where they were taken.

I think they are at the Place Vendome - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_Vend%C3%B4me

I finally found a copy of 'Engaged to Kill' in which Amanda plays a detective put on a kidnapping case. Been a bit busy today, so I'm hoping to watch it sometime tomorrow. Has anyone seen it themselves?

Basic Lifetime movie fare. Not great, not bad. Amanda's wonderful of course.

Yea, I have to agree with rderoch on this one The movie's not the best written, but Amanda does her best with the role she's given

I don't even think that movie was middle of the line. I wouldn't quite classify it as awful, but I only kept watching it to see AT. I just couldn't get past the final scene when

Spoiler:

AT's character disarms the victim before making sure that the perp is totally incapacitated.

Mandy's right, though; Amanda did the best she could with what she was given.

There was a background?

Ditto to all of the above. Amanda manages to rise above the material but the movie itself is....something else...but you can decide for yourself

^Great photos. Love the blonde coming through in her hair.

YAY.

Finally some gorgeous high-res *un-photoshopped* pictures!

Love those boots. Wish I could pull of knee high boots, but unfortunately Irish Dancing has given me giant sized super calf muscles *sigh*

These are the best pics of Amanda, un-photoshopped pics. "Real" pics of Amanda always look better than those fake photoshopped, natural beauty is the best.

Here are some new photos for everyone to enjoy.

Thank you for linking those across, they're pretty pictures

Yes! It's nice to see unphotoshopped photos. I have the same problem with any boots that have to go around my calves. I really wish having muscle wasn't the unusual situation.

The movie's only a few years old. I posted caps here when it was first broadcast.

*sends Chelle some freezing air*
We had snow again today and the temp was hovering around 19F for a high. Hope it cools you down some.

*puts an ice cube in mouth and blows in Chelle's direction*
Better?
I won't tell you where I learned that trick.

First of all...I'm not sure I really want to know where you learned that trick Neep!!
Second...keep it up...it was lovely and cool today...such a relief.

Thank you!!!
Hate to say it but Amanda kinda looks "glowing" in that first link...I mean she's always glowing to me but...you know what I mean right? *said I hated to say it - sorry. *
As for the Paris shots...awesomely, stunningly gorgeous! As always!

Oh, and leather thigh-high boots? *blinks*

Nice, aren't they! I could never wear boots like that. They would reach my arm pits with my short legs! I reckon Sam's combat boots would be as close to knee high on me as it's ever gonna get!

Does it make me a bad fan that I was more interested in the background of the outside photos than AT? I've been to Paris and was trying to figure out where they were taken.

*high five's EH-T* I was admiring the background too...*bangs head on desk*...but of course Amanda was the natural beauty in the shots!! And even though I have never been to Paris, the scenery is eye catching...but again, not as eye catching as the model in the shots!

ETA: I would just steal Amanda's, but her feet are probably a lot smaller than mine. Do you think Eh-T would flash me the badge if she caught me surreptitiously measuring my foot up against Amanda's at AT5? We are the same height...

So are we to now assume you will definitely be at AT5 Neep??

(((Samandans)))

Off to the Healesville Sanctuary tomorrow with my little abnormals...or rather not so little! Going to take some pictures of the animals - no not the kids but will probably involve them too - but need to to something with the ferals before they go back to school in 2 weeks!

Spoiler:

Had a total loss of memory last night...twice! Fell asleep twice before dinner and woke up thinking I was going to be late for work...and couldn't remember what day it was or what the heck I was doing at home! Very weird. Then hubby fed me dinner in bed and the next thing I know I'm cursing at him to switch his flamin alarm off at 5 this morning...actually, I clearly remember literally throwing the alarm at him. Didn't realise I could curse so clearly at that time of the day! The things we can do...or rather are driven to do!

Sounds like it'll be an awesome time Chelle. I'm not a big fan of zoo's myself, but when I was visiting Ames last May, we went to a wildlife park where the people were caged so to speak (in buses) and the animals for the most part roamed free. It was a very cool experience and I'd definitely go back..in fact we may come to think of it.

Spoiler:

I had a similar experience one day last week. I had come home from work around 430am, goofed around doing things and by the time I went to sleep it must have been around 5 or 6am. Mind you it was still dark outside at this time and being a cloudy day, when daylight finally did arrive, it was still quite dark in my bedroom. For whatever reason, I woke up around 7am, looked at my watch and panicked because I thought I was late for work. I jumped up, and ran for the shower. It wasn't until the water hit me and I was washing my hair that I realized it was 7 in the morning, not evening. Man, that was a very weird experience. Needless to say, I went back to bed. My gf teased me for quite a few days after I told her too.

[EH-T]

Yes! I can see wondering about the location too.

Oh well.

a) yes and b) I think you'd have to worry more about security than my badge. (although I found telling them "it's OK, I'm not crazy" helps )

Were you surreptitiously measuring foot size when AT hugged you at the cocktail party?

I think they are at the Place Vendome - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_Vend%C3%B4me

Somewhere I had not been. I'll put it on the list for next time I'm in Paris. One of the things I love about Paris and London are that there are so many beautiful buildings.

bet that depends on what tone you use. I'll bet you sound sane.

Actually, I thought afterwards that is exactly what a crazy person would say! And it probably didn't help that I was running up to them (but for a good purpose, to give Thomisina money for charity) but luckily I didn't get taken down (although they were very cute guys so it may not have been all bad ).

I'm so with you. IIRC, AT did describe her character as "bumbling." Unfortunately not in a humorous way. Or at least not on purpose. AT didn't have much to work with. But it was nice to see her in a non-SF role.

Still hoping for Dancing Trees.

Haven't seen Paris yet, but I do love London.

Yes, bring on Dancing Trees already.

With this group though, it kind of encourages bad behavior. *almost spelled that with a u. this place is a bad influence *

Maybe not so much that they believed me but were taken so taken aback they didn't pounce! (Says the naive Canadian who was actually surprised to find at AT3 that security guards were necessary. D'oh!)

You have to go there! So fabulous! I took the train from London to Paris after AT3.
