Based on blogs such as @haveyouseenthismovie-poll and @haveyouseenthisseries-poll, this blog is designed to see Tumblr's familiarity with the work of various actors! Poll options are not split just into I know them/I don't know them, but are further specified to find out which actors most people have seen in several roles, who people mostly know from one thing, who people have heard of but haven't actually seen in anything, and who people have not heard of at all.
Requests are temporarily closed until I'm a little closer to being caught up with the set I have! I'll make a post when they're open again
If you want to see a breakdown of the poll options with examples of what each option is meant to mean, you can check below:
Yes, and I've seen them in multiple roles: You know this actor and have watched multiple things with them in it. For something to qualify as a separate role for this poll, it has to be a) a distinct character in b) a distinct piece of media. I.e. someone playing the same character in 5 different (related) films is one role, and someone playing 5 characters in one film is one role. Choosing this means you have seen this actor play at least 2 different characters in 2 unrelated pieces of media. Ex. You know who Meryl Streep is, and you've seen her in Mamma Mia!, Sophie's Choice, and Out of Africa.
Yes, and I've seen them in one role: You know this actor, but have only actively seen them in one thing (that you can remember), even if you are generally aware of more of their roles. See above for explanation of what counts as a distinct role. Ex. You know who Meryl Streep is, and though you've also heard of Sophie's Choice and know she was in it, the only thing you've actively seen her in is Mamma Mia!
Yes, and I haven't seen them in anything, but could name something they're in: You've heard of this actor and you know the name of at least one thing they're in, but you've never actually seen any of their work yourself. Ex. You know who Meryl Streep is but you've never actually seen her in anything. However, you do know she was in Mamma Mia!.
Yes, I know who they are, but don't know what they've been: You have heard of this actor but haven't seen and aren't familiar with their specific work. Ex. You have heard of Meryl Streep, but can't think of the names of any of the things she's been in.
No, I haven't heard of them before: Pretty straightforward- you have never heard of this actor at all before seeing this poll. Ex. Who's this "Meryl Streep" person?
My queue of finished polls has run out for now so I will have to put it on pause temporarily until I have time to catch up and finish the next set, so this blog will be on a temporary break from posting new polls for a little while
I will also be pausing taking new requests for a little while, just so I can get a bit closer to being caught up with the current set I have
