That is a pretty serious deletion
Yeah. Armitage’s tweet about being delighted to join Miles? Gone. Still there on instagram and FB, though?

Hopefully he had to withdraw from Miles because something better panned out. One can only hope (I confess, I really HATED the whole Miles project).

I just watched the short and it just didn’t appeal to me and did not seem like anything ‘new’. Teenage anit-hero goes on the run to protect his girlfriend, dog, horse, mentally challenged friend against the evil state, parent, authority figure…..just seemed like nothing new. I am probably totally wrong but it seemed not new, not interesting and not appealing to me personally but it will hopefully be enjoyed by many others – just not my cup of tea. I hope it was a positive thing for him as well and not a result of a clash of creative differences or something sad or family crises in his personal life. Then again, he may still be in the project since it is still on FB?

yeah, it’s unclear whether that deletion is significant. Although according to him, a deletion is b/c he wants to stop the conversation — maybe he was just tired of fans discussing it?

I think there may have been an issue with the IG link on that first tweet. The Vimeo one had a better quality playback. Just speculating, but I think if he was withdrawing he might have deleted both tweets.

I know that was true on the first tweet, which must have been why he tweeted it again, but now that tweet is gone, too, and the link worked okay on that tweet, I think. At least for me.

There’s another Miles tweet left, as well as Facebook and instagram. So I don’t think he quit the project (yet). I must admit I’m not deliriously happy he’s in it. It looks like there will be good special effects for the robot, but it’s not original and I can’t imagine that he’d have a juicy / interesting role in something like this. I fear another Into the storm, probably with less screentime, though.

It’s interesting to observe the rhetorical pattern:
1) Armitage announces a role
2) Fans respond to announcement
3) Armitage does not respond to fan responses
4) Fans begin to criticize each other for their responses (in part b/c there is little to talk about otherwise)
5) Someone tries to explain
6) Armitage then partially deletes his announcement for reasons unknown (there could be many reasons)
7) People speculate about about the reasons
8) Someone says people shouldn’t speculate
But, I mean, it’s a celebrity fandom. We talk about the celebrity and what the celebrity does and says. We fantasize about the celebrity. We speculate, we gossip. What else is there, really? Silent adoration, I guess.

[…] “That is a pretty serious deletion,” January 8, 2017. Richard Armitage disappears all his tweets regarding the project “Miles,” announced in late 2017 and apparently withdrawn from in the context of his late entry into Ocean’s 8. 2016’s top ten were very much about Armitage’s tweet deletions; either he moderated himself this year or we got less interested in them.
