When someone tells you to “get over the Vampire Chronicles already.”
I am physically and emotionally incapable of getting over the Vampire Chronicles. I’m as attached to the fanworks as I am the canon at this point.

But the real question is… do you want to survive?
GET IT? GET IT? BECAUSE THE MOVIE IS SO BAD IT MIGHT NOT BE WORTH LIVING IN A WORLD WHERE IT EXISTS. YOU’RE WELCOME.
Yes this world is still worth living in, marred as it is by that film. This describes my feeling for that heartbreaking work of staggering genius (by textsfromthevampire):

Hey, what kind of music does everybody listen to?…
@aganmagdalene said: This is fantastic! I feel that it’s all so accurate it hurts, especially regarding Marius lol.
Thank you! Comments like these make it all worth it *u*

Ha! You have a good point there. A pointy point. #Headcanon accepted.

XD I know right??! Guilty pleasure.
lestatemperorofthedead: Bet Louis’ favourite song from Hozier is Arsonists Lullaby…
I love your tumblr name. I WANT MY INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE! Back when vampires burned in the sunlight and wept at the subtle beauty of the night. XD
Thank u! YEP, it’s all of those reasons! But it’s also actually an homage to MTV’s old slogan, “I want my MTV.“
BTW: This is probably the meme that inspired all my madness:
The first ones of these I saw made me laugh so hard that I knew I had to make some of my own. So pleased that other blogs like textsfromthevampire and vampiredevelopment are doing them, too! :]
Tom Cruise was the best Lestat. Townsend was a try hard.
In short: YES.
Exhibit A:
Exhibit B:
However, Townsend’s fail is not all his fault. He was doing what the director told him to do, he was made up the way the director wanted, and he was working from a terrible script. Unfortunately it was a trainwreck of a movie.
IWTV had Anne Rice on the script, working closely with the director to keep her vision as close to the book as possible.
Also, Tom Cruise did his homework. He read IWTV, TVL, (and presumably QOTD and TOBT bc at one point he was trying to star in and get TOBT made). He’s been at this longer, he’s a more practiced actor, he just *got* Lestat better.
DESPITE all those ppl who still complain that he was too short, bc honestly, to judge an actor by his height, something entirely outside of his control (he did wear boots w/ some vertical assistance) is so narrow-minded and other related complaints so don’t even get me started.
I don’t know what the deal was with QOTD, but they clearly didn’t care for canon. That was the real source of its failure, not just it’s terrible Lestat.
