How many flaws and reasons do we have for hating the movie Queen of the damned?
PostPosted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 6:50 pm


i think theres too many to count, but ill start:

1. Anne Rice was not a part of the writing or creating of the movie; they just made her sign over the rights.

Im on all day, so i have a lot of free time, but believe me, when you love the VC as much as i do, you tend to notice the discrepencies between the movies and the books.

11. The concert took place indoors in the book, not outdoors.

12. Akasha shows and helps Lestat with his new powers in the book; they didnt do that in the movie.

13. Jesse did not go to the vampire bar in the book; but she did in the movie.

14. In the movie, Pandora and another vampire are destroyed by the Queen; they arent destroyed in the book.

15. The violin Lestat has is Nicki's violin; in the movie, he swiped it off a dead gypsy girl.

16. In the book, Jesse is crushed by a biker, his bike, and the crowd; she wasnt going to survive so she was made into a vampire. In the movie, she was drained of her blood by Lestat, only to be changed sometime later.

17. In the movie, Jesse is mortal when she meets the Queen, and then Lestat drains her of her blood; in the book, Maharet changes her, and she meets the Queen as a vampire.

18. In the books, all the vampires gathered at Maharet's mansion, and "hung out" together; this never took place in the movie.

19. In the movie, Jesse and Lestat go to see David; in the book, Jesse was not there when Lestat met David.


the sad thing is, i could go on for a while...
