I was thinking the same while we were watching it. My cousin was like “He’s awful…but I like him.” She liked Louis too he just wasn’t her favorite. She cheered when he destroyed the theater vampires, lol. She didn’t care for Armand much but that’s understandable given the circumstances.

Louis agrees w/ your cousin.

Armand is a Santiago & Armand hybrid ok jeez and he can’t be THAT offensive to someone who hasn’t read the book(s)!

New book! I still need to read Prince Lestat too…. oh well. Now that I have a job I can buy them, lol. I also wanted to tell you I made my cousin watch IWTV for the first time last night! Lestat was her fave but she felt sad for Claudia and Louis too.

Take your time, there’s no rush. Books are patient creatures.

Bringing your cousin into this: yesssss, fresh blood for the fandom ^______^

It’s endlessly amusing to me that Lestat is the real winner in that movie, bc Tom made him so lovable despite the cruelty he inflicts on everyone around him, and Brad solidified many ppl’s impression of Louis as a sad-sack and Kirsten made Claudia well… someone who deserved all the sympathy.
