Bruh you got me wanting to dive into the books. I read interview when I was a teenager and I think i read the vampire Armand but that’s it.

TVL got me into the series

I read interview on high school as part of a class..... And I found it quite boring.
I liked the movie with Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise. But it was just cool.

I saw the movie QOTD in the theatre when it came out, and was like.... This doesn't feel right, lemme go back and read all the books.

Read interview again.... Still boring.

But........ When I got to TVL the first two chapters had me CRYING LAUGHING...

The crash out, breaking the 4th wall, how bad he roasted Louis.... Like the entire tone was different, and I was locked in. I don't think that chick was lying when she said the first episode was probably the best episode.... The way he crashed out in the first two or three chapters.... It makes sense. I can't wait to see this in live action.

Cuz the little clip of him at the bookstore tells me already this is going to be way funnier. Her saying the lawyer was hilarious, I can already see it. He is deliberately being 100% ridiculous the entire time.

Like Interview is a very boring book, and they some how turned it into 2 of the most entertaining seasons of television I've ever watched.

Now..
We're about to get that same team tackling one of the most entertaining books I've ever read??

It would be a shame if this isn't better than season 2. Bcuz everything about this book is better than the first two.

The lore, the characters, the drama, the impending danger. The sheer scale.... Like there's one particular scene I pray they keep and illustrate well. It was left out of QOTD movie, and they may leave it out here mainly because they don't have the budget, and it would be difficult to recreate. But this shit was ridiculous.. Nothing in me will make me spoil it. But goodness, I hope we get to see this. It'll put a lotta things into perspective.

You got me amped I’m about to hit up this discount bookstore in the area here and see what I can find
 
Yeah bro bring able to actually sing makes this shit unfair.


The only thing wrong with this, is it's not a bigger deal. But all of this shit is crazy epic to see play out being a 20+ year fan
 
Like if you told me at any point in my life after I read this book that I would witness this kinda roll out ...


I would have been like whatever.... This is nuts to me. I know how people who read shit like

Game of thrones
Lord of the rings
Harry Potter...

Or the comic book heads who knew about walking dead, invincible, the boys.....

Or even the decades long fans of Ironman, Thor Thanos who never thought characters like that would get mainstream billing.


I read this book easily 7-8 times and NEVER thought I would ever get a live action Rockstar Lestat outside of the movie with Aaliyah....

I really thought we would never get here. And we're here.

I'm just very happy right now.
