Interview with the Vampire - fangs out

[Scarlett Johansson]

So yeah they made a new show based on the anne rice books. Its fun.



Shit like this. Its stupid but fun.

 

[I (Don't) Have A Gun]

Didn't watch it, but it look pretty gay and they race swapped the lead, and changed the setting and time period if I'm not mistaken. I remember there being a bit of internet drama about it.

Leaked footage

The show doesn't look too bad, even if they did blackify Louis. Meh, I might give it a shot.

 

[Gravityqueen4life]

why? the movie that came out decades ago is still fine.

 

[Fascist Frederick]

[Stabmaster Arson II]

Innaview wif da Blackula

Gee George, that isn't a normal vampire, that's Blackula! Your crucifix doesn't repel him!
Don't worry Mary, I prepared for this *whips out child support and job application forms*
Blackula: Aaaargh nooo it burns *flees*

So they made him black and gay.

But overall how is it story wise?

Louis was a slave owner in the novel. How are they going to spin that or are they going to ditch it like the movie did? Claudia being a nigglet is also kind of nauseating.

I believe, from what I saw in some article, they ditched him being a slave owner and instead made him come from 'an influential Creole family that owns a bunch of brothels'. So... they made him come from a family of hi-class pimps.
You know. Since he's black.

 

[White Devil]

Not interested in revisionist remake tripe.

Because they were all white.

Sam Reid is hotter than tom and brad combined tbh.

Claudia's black too? I think someone in Hollywood is mad at Kirsten Dunst.

I gave it a chance, and I actually kinda like it. I was worried that race changing Louis would lead to non-stop SJW talking points, but it has not so far. I’ve actually heard people complaining that they don’t talk about race enough, which is hilarious.

The show starts with Louis wanting to tell his story again some 40+ years later to the same interviewer, Daniel, who over the years had become a jaded journalist and probable Kiwi Farms user. Daniel has no issue with calling Louis out on his bullshit, leading to some of the funniest and based lines in the show. “I also think she makes you and Frenchie look like a couple of whiny existential queens”. Yep, love this guy.

The set pieces are incredible, the acting is great (although I’m not a huge fan of Claudia). It has its campy side, but it’s overall really enjoyable.

Episode 5 has people bitching about domestic violence because of a scene where Lestat and Louis physically fight over Claudia. LMAO. Did they forget these are immortal beings who heal quickly (and kill just as quickly)? Did they forget about Claudia killing 56 people and cutting someone’s tit off? But because Lestat is more powerful, I guess it’s some type of power dynamic, blah blah, who cares. They aren’t human, fuck off.

 

[CharcoalChkn]

Yeah it's pretty trashy fun, enjoyable to have on the side while I'm doing things.

 

[xXx: State of the Union]

It's pretty garbage

I can see people eating it up though. People love this kind of slop these days.
