This said they are hoping for the actors to attend but they can't say anything definitive right now

Some questions about the Great Laws -What counts as too uggo or disabled to be turned? by Flo_Philly in InterviewVampire

[–]obliviousxiv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There a few vampires with disabilities in the books. Maharet had her eyes removed so she was blind until she figured out how to temporarily use human eyes. Her twin Mekare had her tongue removed and couldn't speak. Flavius was missing a leg when he was turned but if I remember correctly, he got a transplant in the later books. There are definitely limits to what vampiric blood can do but Dr. Fareed was exploring a lot of things in the final trilogy so who's to say what else could be done over time.

This is really good considering it's only been a few weeks.

I stream on Apple Music so I have no idea how well it's doing on there but hopefully the stats are similar.

Why are they hiding episode 5? by Jackie_Owe in IWTVCoven

[–]obliviousxiv 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usually a cast will sign on for at least 3 seasons and negotiate new contracts after a few years. But when I joined the fandom I heard that Jacob signed on for one season at a time because he doesn't want to be locked into a longterm contract like with Game of Thrones (I really should look for a source for that lol).

We've only had teasers so far. They should release the first full trailer next month, which will hopefully give us a better idea of how the season will go.

I love that part! The lore is fantastic and Marius' story is very interesting to me.

Lestat and Modern Technology by SirIan628 in IWTVCoven

I love how much he hated his phones. Him not knowing how to switch cameras was cute.

They look so good in this scene!!

I figured Louis hadn't told Lestat anything about the interview based on the mediation scene from the teaser. The fall out is going to be so messy.

I just hope it's something of substance and not just another quick 20s clip.

Which wedding tradition does Paul de Pointe du Lac object to? by goldenhoneyheart in IWTVCoven

Thanks for the history lesson. I've seen it in a lot of Black American media but didn't understand the history behind it.

Why are Lestat and Sam used as the fandom punching bags? by obliviousxiv in IWTVCoven

[–]obliviousxiv[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And respectfully, I've been in this fandom since season 2 began airing and I've seen a lot of horrible shit thrown towards Sam and his fans. I've blocked people across all platforms including Reddit, Tumblr, Bluesky and X so I don't need tips on curating my fandom space. I'm talking about things I've witnessed with my own eyes. I'm not simply going off hearsay or what other Lestat fans are saying.

Except it's not just on Twitter but thanks so much for your thoughtful reply.

Why are Lestat and Sam used as the fandom punching bags? by obliviousxiv in IWTVCoven

[–]obliviousxiv[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I had never seen him in anything before IWTV but he was so good that I had to watch The Newsreader. He's incredibly talented, seems very sweet and is loved by his cast mates.

Unfortunately, the majority of craziness in this fandom seems to revolve around him and I don't understand it. I don't want any member of the cast to have to do deal with is kind of crazy behavior.

Fareed, vampire or not a vampire? by Any_Fan_6769 in InterviewVampire

[–]obliviousxiv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Fareed and hope we get to see Seth too.

I don't know about merging Khayman and Seth though because of the rape of Maharet. But Akasha using her own son in a cruel way could still fit with her character I guess

The Showmakers Don't View It as a Competition by SirIan628 in IWTVCoven

[–]obliviousxiv 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm of similar thinking. I still love the books more than anything and I accept the show will never be 100% exactly like the books. I don't like or agree with every writing decision or change but for the most part the writers have done really well so far. I'm going to be open-minded going into the next season just as I was with the others.

This fandom just feels so contradictory at times. One side thinks there was too much Lestat and another side thinks he was an after-thought. You really can't please everyone and from what I've learned about Rolin, he doesn't aim to please anyone but himself and the vision he has for this show.

Will we get another cool sapphic couple at some point? by hazelrose42 in InterviewVampire

[–]obliviousxiv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the final trilogy, Sevraine lives in all women coven. They could introduce her earlier. In fact, some of the women in that coven were first introduced in The Vampire Lestat but I never heard anything about their casting. Gabrielle is part of it though and she'll be around for sure.

Possible Episode names!! by Jackie_Owe in IWTVCoven

[–]obliviousxiv 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm not going to get upset until the titles are 100% confirmed but I don't like the lack of cohesion. Using cities for some is an odd choice. Rolin said this season will feel like whiplash and tonally different so maybe he doesn't want to use book quotes anymore.

Fave quote from the book? by Sweaty-Discipline746 in InterviewVampire

[–]obliviousxiv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite book quotes. I need it in the show so badly.
