His character is a master piece! His interpretation is brilliant, I wish some day I could chat with him about all the faces this character has and his majestic interpretation. I cry everytime Thorin die, I just can't handle it. You did it perfect Mr. Armitage! Bravo!!🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

When I'm watching those 100500 youtube videos with Richard, I think about that - I really want to be such an affable person like he is. Maybe someday. It's just amazing and priceless.

I know that his conversation with Bilbo at the end of the Battle of the Five Armies is going to make me cry.

I liked him as Guy in Robin Hood and I liked him as Thorin at The Hobbit. But I have to say when he talked like that about Gary Oldman I liked him even more. He seems to have some standards as an actor and I love that. Gary Oldman is really the definition of the word "actor" and I'm glad Richard Armitage understands that and that it's actually what made him decide to be an actor. I'm looking forward to see more from Richard Armitage! :)

I find that the interviewer walked into each question very confidently, and for some reason she ended up finishing almost all of them with "*pauses* really?" or "*pauses* seriously?" Not sure if it was intentional but it was a tiny bit odd.

I think he made him a tiny bit more staunch than the book, but damn, he did a hell of a job.

Even though the questions were good questions... I got totally annoyed by the interviewee.. Idk how exactly but there was something about her voice and how she stated the questions that made it rather unbearable to watch (thank you Richard for helping with the pain of the interview)
