This interview… I’m sharing it bc I feel so much second-hand embarrassment for Tom whenever I watch it which is not often but I found it again today so I’m posting it here for… reasons. He shares this story, without hardly being prompted, about cutting off the oxygen of one of his passengers while in flight (starts at 2:32). Watching it, I just keep feeling, “Tom, no, stahp plz, oh gawds… begging you… FIRST OF ALL WHY WOULD U DO THAT?? Second of all, WHY WOULD U OFFER THAT STORY UP – I can’t even with you sometimes… You are in serious need of non-sexual corporal punishment.”
But the story is a very Lestat thing to do and it’s a very Lestatuesque way to tell it, as he’s cracking up, with what can only be described as manic laughter. He keeps hiding his face probably bc he knows he’s dug himself in too deep with this story, but he has to keep going, even though he probably knows he can only make it worse.
“Looking for a way to create the character of Patrick Bateman, Christian Bale stumbled onto a Tom Cruise appearance on David Letterman.
According to director Mary Harron, Bale saw in Cruise "this very intense friendliness with nothing behind the eyes” and Bale subsequently based the character of Bateman on that.“
♛Et tu me fais plaisir, aussi! Il faut que je continuer à faire ça, c’est ma metieret ma passion terrible.ooc; *hides face* because you’re gonna correct the femininity/masculinity of my nouns now but you should be impressed that I TRIED. “A” for effort, I award it to myself.
Of course I’m
impressed (seriously, your French is good and the effort much much appreciated!)
A+, and you can believe me, I’m actually getting paid for doing teacher stuff
and all dat shit! (->the sad truth!). But c’mon I’m not
such a mean teacher, except when I’m a tired bitch inspired by muse Lestat IRL.
At some point, I might have said to some of my always late students that I was
later than them so they can be on time for once, and that they should be grateful
for that. In French, we call that “mauvaise foi”.
DON’T THINK I DIDNT CATCH YOUR MISTAKE BC I DID BUT I WAS WILLING TO LET IT GO; SUCH IS THE MASSIVE GENEROSITY IN MY HEART! THE SENTIMENT REMAINS, I ADORE U AND U ARE A GIFT TO OUR FANDOM.
im gonna liveblog interview with a vampire so get ready kids
brad pitt talking in monotone is the single weirdest and funniest thing i have ever seen
i think im developing a thing for 80s/90s christian slater
“how can i put you at ease?” idk maybe you shouldn’t have told him you’re a vampire
six minutes in and there’s a montage with dramatic music and a deadpan monologue voice over provided by brad pitt i love this movie already
aaaaannnnnnnddd………….now they’re flying
they’re in mid air, tom cruise in a blond wig is drinking brad pitt’s blood, brad pitt made a sex noise when tom cruise detached himself from brad pitt’s neck, and then tom cruise dramatically dropped him into a river. i really do love this movie
as in all period dramas, there is a scene where a rich person in lacy nightclothes lies coughing and gravely ill in their massive bed in a huge mansion. even when the period dramas have vampires, there’s always this scene
question: how many times is tom cruise gonna attach himself to brad pitt’s neck in this film
also: how many more dramatic speeches is tom cruise gonna have, and how many more sex noises is brad pitt gonna make
this movie is so dramatic i can’t
do you mean to tell me that these two guys can just sit in a public tavern and casually drink someone’s blood in the corner until they die and no-one notices??
tom cruise: [offers him rat blood]
brad pitt: [makes an “is this bitch for real?” face]
brad pitt:
brad pitt:
brad pitt: [drinks it anyway]
tom cruise: read her thoughts
brad pitt: [makes an “is this bitch for real?” face]
brad pitt:
brad pitt:
brad pitt: [tries it anyway]
brad pitt:
brad pitt: i can’t
the “NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA” then the high pitched squeak/laugh i’m losing my shit
in other news, this immortal vampire is also a grape-throwing eight-year-old
HE’S DANCING WITH THE FUCKING CORPSE
claudia: where’s mama??

“you’re mine and louis’ daughter now” gay vampire dads i cannot fucking believe this
claudia: eww dad when did u eat rats
louis: long time ago, before u were born
louis, silently in his head: and it was bc of fucking lestat so don’t blame that shit on me
can’t believe claudia is having a teenage rage while louis is like OH NO BBY CALM DOWN and lestat is yelling NOT IN THE FUCKING HOUSE
the only thing not making this a scene from a domestic family comedy/drama is the dead body
there’s door-slamming and everything amazing
claudia: oh btw they’re dead ¯_(ツ)_/¯
lestat:
lestat:
claudia: ¯_(ツ)_/¯
lestat:
lestat: fuck
lestat: LOUIS
THIS WAS WORTH ALL THE DIGITAL INK IT WAS PRINTED WITH

“James Corden has once again managed to convince producers at The Late Late Show to let him have a go at another one. As part of his latest elaborate ruse to crack Broadway, the 36-year-old took on the role of the Phantom from The Phantom Of The Opera on Friday.
James stopped traffic in Hollywood as he screamed the lyrics from the show at the top of his lungs. At one point he was even seen hurtling across the road as he tried to make it back to the pavement before the cars moved off from the traffic lights. The Gavin and Stacey star wildly gesticulated from beneath his sequinned cloak as he applied himself fully to the dramatic performance”
“That line [’I wish I knew how to quit you.’] has moved, it has been mocked, it has been everything in between, but I remember coming out of that scene, off that ridge of the hill, and seeing a number of the crew, some of whom didn’t even know what the movie was about, crying. When I first read that line, I was like, ‘What is that?’ Now I realize that anybody who has loved knows what that feels like. The interesting part of casting us at such a young age was that we didn’t completely understand what we were involved in, and that’s the beauty of the movie as well.” —Jake Gyllenhaal
