DragonSinger Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I was so afraid of it being trash that I didn't even watch the trailer until now. I'm so glad I was wrong, but dear lord I'm in deep since the first episode. Drama, good writing, vampires, unhealthy romantic obsession, gore, and fucking. What more can a gal ask for in a show? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1pooh4u Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I haven watched it yet but I used to love the vampire chronicles. I love me some Eric Bogosian. I was just pleasantly surprised that people didn’t screech over Louis and Claudia being black. I’m gonna check it out and I really hope this version lays into Louis a little more for creating Claudia in the first place. They always gloss over that and I suppose Rice did as well to keep our focus on Lestat being the monster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1pooh4u Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 The writing is excellent and I wonder if Anne Rice had anything to do with the changes to the story prior to her death. Probably not though since she’s been dead I think a year, but she would approve and her son Chris gotta be happy with the results. The changes make the story way better so far Spoiler Did Louis get his sister tickets on the Titanic? I tried looking hard at those tickets the family has such bad luck it wouldn’t surprise me but my bf said he doesn’t think so because the tickets said Black Star Line and the Titanic was White Star Line 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue what her thoughts on casting were. I LOL'ed at the thought of the sister getting on a ship and the camera pans to where the name 'TITANIC' can be seen. That would be so wrong 😂. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking so hard I know he starts the story in 1910 and the ship sunk in 1912 but still I swear they were going there that he did unknowingly get her tickets to the titanic 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mewn Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 ooo and they're making Mayfair Witches <_< I am excited about that one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1pooh4u Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) I like it so far it’s different than the books but the changes are positive. I like that we get to explore the love hate relationship that Louis and Lestat shared. My blood was boiling though during the opera house scene Edited October 19, 2022 by 1pooh4u Fuckin autocorrect strikes again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blood was boiling though during the opera house scene I guessed how that was gonna go since they've been consistent so far with keeping parts like that realistic, but I got a laugh out of Lestat making those notes in blood on the sheet music. The old band nerd in me was dying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had hoped they would show the zero fucks Lestat gave about what other’s think BUT I get shooting for realism and not wanting to draw unnecessary attention to themselves being they’re vampires but I was like “nah man that’s garbage doo doo not gardening doo doo he ain’t getting dick now” I knew Lestat was going to fuck with that opera singer he was more angry about that than not being able to walk side by side with Louis 😬😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonSinger Posted October 24, 2022 Author Share Posted October 24, 2022 Gonna have to wait for episode 6 to come out before watching episode 5 in order to see if there was a reason for the recent storyline going for shock value in how a scene was treated. I still think it was irresponsibly done(they should have at least put a DV trigger warning before airing it), but if it's an unreliable narrator type of deal, it should have been better handled.
