 | Jesus, what a hot pile of garbage.
I've read all of Anne Rice books, even the most obscure and this series is just an offense.
They waited for her to die, then gave a lot of money to her family in order to get the rights of the series to do this.
The question is: why? Why not create and original series about a interacial vampire gay couple? Why they feel the need to use the name of an already stabilished series and change everything about it in order to create some angeda. |
| Is that really what makes this such a terrible series to you? The presence of an mixed race and/or gay marriage? That's the only thing you mention, so apparently if one were capable of not being offended by mixed race or gay marriages (i.e. not bigoted), then, well, yeah, we all know the show is actually a lot of fun. |
| Of course, you are right Guest-9081! And look, here comes another "agenda-driven lying liberal herd animal" Guest-1959 to yet again justify this complete bastardization in the name of degeneracy. Can we PLEASE just have a PROPER book adaptation for once where everything isn't changed for political correctness!  |
| Guest-9081 thank you for saying what we all think. Hollywood doesn't have a creative bone left in it's corpse, so they just regurgitate classic stories and films but with a stupid "woke" spin to it. Not every race or sexual preference needs to be represented in every film/tv. Let things be the way they were originally. We don't need a black little mermaid remake or a gay vampire couple when those were not he original stories. If someone wants to make "Interview with a GAYmpire" then remake that, but don't pass it off under the guise of the original FFS. All this wokeness isn't having the effect they think it is.... |
| For once, JUST ONCE, I would love to see a series based on a book(s) that is TRUE to the source material instead of being radically altered to suit the political & social soup de jour. I am SO sick of this utter shite!!! |
| I've read the books and do not remember Louis "Chafing at the limitations of life as a Black man in New Orleans in the early 1900's". Maybe I missed that part. For making up approximately 13% of the US population they sure make up a large percentage of faces I see in movies and TV shows. |
| Very nicely said 3523, and absolutely spot-on across the board... thank you! You are of course correct in your astute observation. Only an agenda-driven lying liberal herd animal would even bother arguing this point or disagreeing with it. Have an upvote just for speaking truth!  |
 | It's a TV series, and as such it's directors prerogative as to the storyline, setting, characters, etc.. This is why books written long ago, when transferred to the screen or stage, are much different. |
| The "agenda-driven lying liberal herd animal" couldn't help itself LOL!  ===> cryogre |
| Utter gobshite. Nowadays they don't read a book before they turn it into an unnecessary remake: they read the summary on the fourth of cover, forget half of what it said and then make a steaming pile of a movie. In this case, it being a series, it's even worse: they know it's bad, they're told it's bad, they see it's bad and the stretch it over two seasons, ready for more. |
| Eh I have read all the books and absolutely LOVE these series. Reaction from other Anne Rice fans on the web also seems to be overwhelmingly positive, and there's finally the feeling this is the first proper adaptation. Hoping for many more seasons! |
 | Nicely said 1503, and absolutely spot-on across the board... thank you   |
| VERY nicely said 1296, and POSITIVELY absolutely spot-on across the board... thank you. As 3523 says so correctly above, there is ABSOLUTELY no "Chafing at the limitations of life as a Black man in New Orleans in the early 1900's" in the books. 1503 & LL are yet again clutching at non-existent straws! Sad... |
| You're quite right about the "chafing" 2397 (although that's the only thing). It makes an excellent, pertinent, and engaging new twist to the narrative. So whilst the series remains true to Rice's spirit of the Lestat books, it adds something as well. A great show in all respects, thank you TGxTV |
