Remember when Anne Rice pitched a fit and took out a whole ad about how Tom Cruise was slightly off in features, therefore totally wrong for the part? I wonder how long it'll take her to personally endorse this.
And then she watched it, got horny for him, and did a full 180 on her previous stance.
Though at least that was the movie doing what it was made to do, this will probably fail to accomplish that single goal that all vampire media is meant to.
Anne Rice, the woman who talked about being a gay man trapped in a woman's body. She said that kind of stupid shit decades ago when the gender confusion craze was still splashing around in the shallow end of the kiddie pool.
There's nothing to subvert in her books or her characters. They were subversions in and of themselves.
I don't care who they cast. I don't care what race they choose. Anne Rice's books aren't worth defending.
its why 90% of things that matter in human history is mostly male oriented. art, science, engineer, medicine.. man forged our way out of living in mud huts and drinking dirty water. the drive, aggression and innovation to be better.
It's in the first trilogy too. She intentionally made Ged and nearly every character of import black or brown because whites were overrepresented in fantasy
The entire world was mostly islands and the kind of people you'd find on island nations. Which, would make them all varying shades of brown because that's how those things work.
So, regardless of intent, the world was built in a way that justifies and works with that. Instead of the now where there is no logical way for it to make sense how X race is in such a place. I can cringe at her platitude, but at least she put in the effort to make it work.
This is in contrast to the second trilogy which contains characters who exist just to hate women to create the ability to rant and preach about how hating women is bad.
lol trash

Probably quite sometime seeing as she's dead.
It was actually when she went into a public spat with "Zoe Quinn" during GG.
Ah right, when they cant get the author to go along they wait them out.

I like it when vampires are portrayed like degenerate drug addicts, rather than Lotharios.
I always go Gangrel in VTMB, because vampires should be portrayed as the beasts they are.
Someone else's IP that wasn't exactly that successful either.
Who gives a shit about this middling book or movie?

I love Agatha Christie and Ursula K Le Guinn. Can't think of any others
Just don't read the second Earthsea trilogy. She managed to be woke when most of the woke were but babies.
