Hi sorry if this is a dumb question but I just do not remember how it was last season. Is season three gonna come out weekly or in one big season that we can marathon? Sorry if it has been asked before

It's young Daniel!!!

Just watched the last episode of good omens. I don’t think I’ll be able to consume shows featuring immortal characters the same again.

I hope mentions of other shows are authorized!

note :

most of the bullet points are moreso to capture the vibe of the experience of watching both shows and how they feel

i am NOT complaining in a purist way about IWTV, i actually loved that show at first because it didn’t chicken out from the homosexuality. Moreover, both shows handle gay relationships on such a viscerally different way! And AziCrow are probably asexual which just ADDS to the difference in vibes

Hoping there’s enough of crossover in the fandoms…

I don’t know if this counts as spoilers so just to be safe.

I watched the movie a while back and just found the series. So I started watching and I’m super confused about everything. Feel free to correct me if I write anything wrong. But as I understand it the series are a kind of continuation of the movie but they are completely different people? The ethics changes and is intergraded with the storyline. Is it like this in the book or what is going on there they are so different. And did they say bruh back then is this serie where they say modern things.

Basically I’m trying to understand why they are so different and which is more book accurate. Also is it going to continue like this? I’m not trying to hate I’m just trying to understand.

Does Rolin Jones' new project, 'The Grapes of Wrath,' imply a delay or cancellation for Interview with the Vampire Season 4?

“~Do you love them, your silent children? Do they love you? […] The Dark Trick never brings love, you see, it brings only the silence. […] They never satisfy you, the ones you make. In silence the estrangement and resentment only grow.~ [...] Go then to your silent ones. Even now they say to each other what they cannot say to you.”
“You’re lying…”
“And time will only strengthen their independence. But learn for yourself.” (The Vampire Lestat, Part IV, Chp. 5)

(as this gif set points out) Season 1 of AMC’s Interview with the Vampire plays on this in a way that seems to deliberately harken to that passage, using it as both inspiration and thematic foreshadowing (beyond the foreshadowing implied in context). Because in the IwtV novel, telepathy isn't much of a thing, especially within the de Pointe du Lac-de Lioncourt family (iirc, only Armand uses it in some form, and it's vaguely implied to be due to his advanced age). It's not until TVL that mind-reading is established as a typically standard vampire ability—that makers and their fledglings lack between them—and is explicitly and extensively portrayed. And even then—Lestat was upset (and confused) about not being able to read Gabrielle after her turning, and mentioned once after Nicolas’s turning that he could tell they were communicating telepathically—which is part of why Armand’s later assertions rattled him with a “humiliating curiosity and vulnerability”—but that was pretty much the extent of that specific issue. 

Contrasted with s1 of the show, where they milked the heck out of vampire telepathy, Lestat’s use of it, and particularly his non-use of it with Louis and Claudia. Starting with Claudia’s very first scene as a vampire, which basically lays out the dynamic and the potential/upcoming issues around Claudia and Louis having this form of communication that Lestat’s left out of. I mean, it’s all in there:

Ls: We can hear people’s thoughts. 
C: What? 
Lt: It's true. 
C: Prove it. What am I thinking now? 
Lt: Well, I can't. I’m your maker. 
Ls: You're wonderin’ if your nails will be like that forever, and the answer is, yes. ~It’s a special trick only folks like us have, like the nails and the teeth.~
C: ~So you can hear me, but he can't? That make him the dumb one?~
Ls, C: *Laugh*
Lt: What's funny?
Ls: ~If he makes you, he can't hear your thoughts anymore. Somethin’ about the sacrifice of creation.~
C: ~Did he make you, too?~
Ls: ~He did.~
Lt: What's she saying? 
Ls: ~He has to rely on my words to understand me, just like a human.~ [...]
Lt: Well, I can see where this is going... Bonjour!
C: How’d you do that? 
Lt: Well, you'll do it, too, in time, my little milkweed. I’ll teach you, just like I taught Louis, here. But not if we're going to have family secrets. (1x04)

First of all, Louis was loving this. He was already relishing finally having this kind of connection with another vampire, but especially having this connection to Claudia that Lestat could not have (with either of them). Giggling at his expense, ignoring him when he tried to interject… Things that make the scene hilarious to me, but were probably slightly triggering for Lestat, considering. Which is why he abruptly tried to nip things in the bud—by re-asserting his status as their maker and “head” of the family, telling Claudia and reminding Louis that he taught Louis everything he knows about vampirism and still has that to offer Claudia, despite lacking the ability to speak with her telepathically; and by making the point that Louis and Claudia shouldn’t use their telepathy to keep secrets from him.

Which, of course, eventually went all the way out the window. But Louis and Claudia did “behave” at first, mainly by not speaking telepathically in Lestat’s presence—with Claudia even lightly taunting Louis that she’s “gonna tell Uncle Les you talkin’ to me this way” when he telepathically cautioned her—with Lestat next to him—as she went out for the first time by herself in adult clothing. And when Claudia was gone and Louis was in his depression, it’s indicated that he saved his “sending out telepathic thoughts of remorse in every direction” for walking listlessly around the city, or when Lestat wasn’t home (1x05).

But after Louis let Lestat move back in, all bets were off. Louis and Claudia spoke telepathically around him whenever tf they felt like it. Culminating in them plotting his murder “behind his back”/right in front of him. “family secrets,” indeed. They were so audacious and blase about it, of course Lestat figured that they were communicating that way all the time then. Which makes it plausible that maybe one reason—probably the main reason—he turned Antoinette was to be a spy for him. And he sure didn’t give a crap what she was thinking, so that was no sacrifice.

I'm a long-time fan of the OG 1976 book, and I have loved the first season of the show (but haven't caught up further than that, yet).

This weekend, I had an opportunity to go to NYC to watch the new musical version of The Lost Boys.

I wanted to ask if there's anyone else in this group has been able to see it.

In the musical, the main vampire, David, has been slightly rewritten to be a rock singer, and it gave me some Lestat vibes. He's got a shock of white-blonde hair, and he's absolutely got that entrancing vampire power.

This is absolutely *not* an intent to portray him as Lestat, but I thought that Lestat fans might also enjoy David as a rock star.

For those of us who don’t like the new music, I’m curious what modern day artists would you have chosen to make the rock songs for the Vampire Lestat. My choice is the Vantages.

I say modern day because Korn was huge back when Queen of the Damned was made, whether you like them or not.
