Wow. How often do you see such a crisp production photo from this movie?
Rarely, actually. It seems there were few production stills released to the press at the time the movie premiered. I’m always surprised to find rare ones like this!
There must have been a set photographer… Gotta find him/her!
ooc; Welp. There it is.
WHAT WHAT WHAT
I wonder if it’s going to be set right after Queen of the Damned or ignore the ones that came after it and start over. Or, shall we say … revamp everything after QofD 😉
It’s supposed to be in between qotd and totbt, like a lost chapter or deleted scene. I don’t think it’s rewriting the current Canon.
ooc; Anne’s said that it takes place in modern time, but is the “true” sequel to Queen of the Damned (which she later corrected to say “the first four books,” then “Memnoch”). She said that the later books were more “memoirs,” although what she means by that, I think everyone’s still speculating.
I took her to mean that the other books post-MtD hadn’t advanced the plot, just gone back and filled in the blanks in the characters’ backstories, and that the new book would be something – well, new.
But then, she referred to the memoirs and, how did she put it, “the other experiments”? Which would mean the VC/Mayfair crossover, presumably. And for all its faults, the crossover DID at least advance the plot, in that Louis got powered up, Lestat finally woke up and she wrapped up the long-dangling Taltos plot thread (however much I really wish she hadn’t done it that way).
So maybe she just wants to do a new thing that’s pure vampire. I could live with that so long as the werewolves don’t get involved. I still haven’t been able to bring myself to read those books.
(cloudsinvenice pretty much wrote everything I was thinking so… there it is then…)
TheSOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) bill has resurfaced and is once again trying to be passed.
The link attached will take you to a petition. Unless this petition reaches 100,000signatures by next week, this will happen:
- All websites containing media that refers to or is owned by a company that hasn’t given its permission for the media to be displayed can and will be shut down. This means sites such as Tumblr, Wattpad, Pinterist, fanfiction.com.
- People who post such media can and will be fined, with a maximum sentence of five years in prison. This includes, but is not limited to, people who own/post the following: fanfiction, fan art, roleplay blogs, fan blogs/accounts and movie streaming sites.
“The legislation would allow copyright holders and the Justice Department to seek court orders against websites associated with copyright infringement. SOPA, the House version, applies to both domestic and foreign websites, while PIPA targets foreign websites. If that court order is granted, the entire website would be taken down. Internet users who typed in the site’s URL address would receive an error message, and for all appearances, the site would never have existed. Importantly, the court does not need to hear a defense from the actual website before issuing its ruling. The entire website can be condemned without a trial or even a traditional court hearing.”
This is not a joke.
This is real.We need 100,000 signatures by next week. Make one of them yours, or all these things that make you happy will disappear.
THIS ONLY TAKES 5 MINUTES TO DO, I TIMED IT.
Sorry to post smtg non-VC but it threatens i-want-my-iwtv! Don’t you love VC fanart/fanfic, and my VC memeythings? And RPers? Please help. I won’t beg for reblogging, but that’d be nice, too *u*
Don’t think “Oh, someone else will bother with this.” You’re the someone else 😦
92,214 signatures still needed after I signed it.
Here’s a Lestat for a little demotivation. I won’t be able to share these anymore if SOPA passes *cries*

DITTO. There’s alot of mixed reactions out there but I waver between cautiously optimistic and ridiculously excited. Maybe I’m just easy to please and hard to disappoint.
It can’t be as bad as the train wreck that was the movie of Queen of the Damned. It just can’t be.
Also, if it’s bad by hardcore fan standards, at least it’s not poisoning the water for adaptations of the series in other mediums like QotD did.
Yes, good point. I would LOVE adaptations of the series in other mediums. Perhaps this will draw Hollywood’s attention back to the possibility of working the Dark Trick on TVL into a film or series.
I haven’t seen this outfit before, is this a still from a cut scene?! It wasn’t from the other scene Lestat has a cane (this one, one of their last happy moments as a family… ♥)
What I would give for those cut scenes… WARNER BROS./NEIL JORDAN/WHOEVER IS RESPONSIBLE: PLZ TO BE GIVING US A 20TH ANNIVERSARY DVD/BR RELEASE OF IWTV W/ ACTUAL CUT SCENES AND SPECIAL FEATURES IN NOVEMBER THIS YR!
OH GOD I NEED THIS LIKE BURNING
BOTH FOR THE CUT SCENES THEMSELVES AND TO GET A FULL VIEW OF LESTAT IN THIS OUTFIT
Seriously, see my tag: maybe we should try to get something trending on social media – combined with directly contacting Neil Jordan, Geffen, WB, whoever… if they don’t already have plans, they’re obviously not going to turn something around this fast, but they need to see there’s a market out there that would jump all over this.
YES YES YES THIS THIS THIS. They have almost 8 months, and the footage is lying around SOMEWHERE. I believe the phrase is SIGNAL BOOST.
VC FANDOM. MY FOLLOWERS. Make this a tag: #IWTV 20th Anniversary. Let’s figure out how to get this happening. How are the Loki fandom maneuvering in getting him a spinoff? Let’s copy their method.
Lestat is very sensitive about his neck area.
Travis Fimmel as Lestat.

aw merci! I herewith bump all these lovelies w/ a reblog.
Hey guys, just a heads-up as I know many of you are more likely to see it here: I made a typing fail in last week’s announcement saying the Section 3 discussion started on the 19th. It of course started yesterday, and the post is live, so come on over!
If you’re not in and you want in, shoot me an Ask for details!
Necessary reblog *u*
