I would rather have watched these outtakes than the movie, tbh.
LMAO Ok, so I actually used to LOVE this awful movie when it first came out. Feel free to judge, I was in only 7th grade at the time, and most films with darker themes were still new and fresh and exciting to me back then (thinking about it, the movie may have been my gateway into the VC universe). My opinion of it has changed pretty drastically since then. But I created some pretty fond memories with the friends I was close with in those days, when we would watch it together, so I can’t bring myself to hate it entirely. XD
But yeah, I really get the biggest kick out of seeing actors dressed up, but out of character, having a blast on movie sets. And as atrocious an adaptation (and, well…movie) as it is, Queen of the Damned’s gag reel is one of my favorites of any movie’s that I’ve seen. I’ll admit some of this has to do with nostalgia, but I think it’s mainly because as I watch it, it seems like the actors were frequently losing their shit during filming, and even themselves collectively going through feelings of WHAT IS THIS I DON’T EVEN WHAT DID I SIGN ON FOR, and it just makes me laugh how SO DONE they look, at times. I’m probably doing a lot of projecting here, but this is all just the impression I take away from what little we’re shown. And the cheesy big band music they chose to go with it just makes me love it that much more.
This is all only my own personal experience of course. I certainly don’t blame VC fans for hating it. TL;DR, this movie’s awful, but I could watch its ridiculous gag reel 5EVAR

“Evil is a point of view. We are immortal. And what we have before us are the rich feasts that conscience cannot appreciate and mortal men cannot know without regret. God kills, and so shall we; indiscriminately. […] For no creatures under God are as we are, none so like Him as ourselves, dark angels not confined to the stinking limits of hell but wandering His earth and all its kingdoms."
This is my first 8tracks playlist ever, It took me forever to get it ready! haha Hope you guys like it ♥
How would you describe the personalities of the main characters (Lestat, Louis, Armand, Marius and David) and the relationships between each other.
Oh god that is too big an answer to try to tackle. I’d say read the Vampire Companion for that.
In short though, if you want my opinion, I’d recommend you try my VC Synopsis tag, where you’ll find such gems as:
lestat: *dramatizes*
louis: *angsts*
armand: *blends*
I want the next TVC book to include Daniel being like lol at everything and everyone’s crazy lives. I mean, Lestat and Louis are drama queens in their own ways [fire anyone?], and Armand is so lowkey shady yet loving that you never know what is going to happen.
I feel like Marius sometimes just has no time to feel angst or boredom because he’s too busy keeping up with everyone else’s nonsense. And Daniel is off in a corner drinking while he works on a new book.
PLEASE ANNE, MAKE DANIEL WRITE MORE BOOKS, THX ❤
^YES to all this.

- Akasha is the ex-principle that everyone but Lestat hates
- Akasha wanted to make the high school an all-girls exclusive private school

- and she has them making dolls for a whole semester
- “how does this help us-“
- "SHUT UP AND GO BACK TO YOUR MACHINE”
- Merrick was Louis’ rebound relationship from Lestat
- until Lestat somehow got her expelled for witchcraft
- you have to have the pagan chick
- who smokes cloves
- and burns incense in her car
- and corrects everyone who says “god” with “goddess”
- Merrick was scaring the goth kids
- by saying she could call down ghosts and also she had a jade dagger
- that she cut Louis with
- Yeah, Louis had a really freaky relationship with her
- he liked it at the time
- He kind of misses that creepy sex but then Lestat reminds him why he’s better
- and then there’s this little girl Claudia who is super smart for her age
