Another thing I hate about the AMC show is it's basically made a bunch of normies want to read Anne Rice's weird ass books and then they're shocked and scandalized by the weird material and they treat AR like some kind of supervillain for it.

"The show elevated and improved the source material."

No... no... it didn't do that actually

You may have guessed that I have developed an enormous hatred for the Immortal Universe by now. But when I look back at the trailer for the upcoming film "Animal Farm", I am so confused as to why producers willingly finance a book adaptation that brutally disfigures this book?

Are these the current standards in the film industry? Isn't it the audience's right to wish that the story and characters follow the style the original creator had in mind?

They will pretend to be morally superior while sending you anon calling you a pedophile or a racist because you love a character like Marius, who, I would like to remind you, does not exist, but in the meantime they write things like this:

Tiktok really is as much of a cesspool of weird Marius antis misinterpreting everything he does in the least charitable way possible as twitter is... Next up, more people insisting that the relationships he had with the boys he apprenticed had to be creepy cause he's suuch a creepy pedo creep...

Why do they want him to have a harem of young boys so bad?? 😭

So I responded…

Again they want him to have a harem soooo bad… Also grooming just means having any kind of relationship with minors I guess...

He was a master teaching and apprenticing school aged boys?? Can the man not have a career!? 😭 Also implying I must be a weirdo who needs to “heal” okay… Like I wasn’t even talking about Armand or Pandora. But I will defend him on that front as well lmao

I didn't even know how to respond to this... What do you mean exclusively young beautiful boys?? 😭 They were just boys!! THEY WANT HIM TO HAVE A HAREM OF BOYS SOOOO FUCKING BADLY LIKE?? Also, if he had somehow apprenticed girls (not rlly a thing at the time but whatever) these people would doubly be calling him creepy for no reason, like my man really can't win with these people.

Armand "thinks" he was in love with him lmao. Wait no!! Don't actually take what Armand has said in his own damn book as his emotional truth, just project your own feelings onto him of what you think he SHOULD feel about his relationship with Marius, that's how to interpret media right?!😃

Marius should really hire me as his defense lawyer, I would make daddy soooo proud😋😋

Anyway, idk why I like arguing with Marius antis, I'm just a chronically online little guy with too much time on my hands, in the trenches for daddy and idk I just like to argue about blorbos, I mean no ill will to anyone here.

Another thing I hate about what the show did to Marius and Armand's relationship is how Marius painting Armand is now being framed.

What was an act of love and devotion in the books and also a way for Marius to express his feelings about Amadeo and their relationship, is now turned into something perverse and objectifying. (And Amadeo gets passed around to other artists who use him sexually, it's gross and I hate it.)

"Centuries ago in a palazzo in Venice, he had tried to capture in imperishable pigment the quality of this love. What had been its lesson? That in all the world no two souls contain the same secret, the same gift of devotion or abandon; that in a common child, a wounded child, he had found a blending of sadness and simple grace that would forever break his heart? This one had understood him! This one had loved him as no other ever had." -TQOTD

It's so romantic in the books I hate how the show reframes it as just another horrible thing Marius did to objectify his sex slave in the show. Marius loved Amadeo so much in the books, he knew his bruised and steely heart, his flaws and rough edges, and he still loved him... He was NOT just keeping Amadeo around as a pretty slave to objectify and fuck.

It just upsets me :/

Was saying the other day to a mutual how I hate that the AMC show has ascribed a negative connotation to an innocent painting, and they said something like:

"Well it's just like this show to take a piece of art that's not theirs and ascribe their own entirely different meaning to it disregarding the original intent."

And y'know what, that was just so spot on lol.

[wretcheddoll]

going through the vampire armand tag and it's literally nothing but amc stuff with not a single book Armand in sight is... 😐😐

[wretcheddoll]

Why’d they give Gabrielle a push up bra…?
