I decided to make this thing very clear. And why can't I just let people pair Lestat and Jesse if it makes them happy? Can you really say living in a lie is a good thing anyway?

Excerpt:
The points I'm going to argue / comment on:
X How his performance as Lestat / any character supposedly sucks.
X He didin't even read the books when he took the role of Lestat.
X How he in the first place took such a crappy role in a crappy script.
X Being drunk on the set / made up accent and bragging about them.
X He supposedly acted surprised twice for the same reason in the film.

Now, when you put all that in that way and even leave it at that - sure as hell it sounds downright ridiculous and awful. But why don't we take a deeper look at all that?...

Excerpt:
I don't think it'd hurt to publish this matter as an article too... Seeing to how blind so many people are to this in the name of "It didn't go like that in the books!!!" So, let us look into the books to see if it might make sense.

But before that - let me explain:
In the film; The change was made to save minutes. That is the reason they give on the commentary track of the Queen of the Damned DVD, so this is not my opinion. Magnus was just the one who made Lestat and then left the picture, so the job was easily and logically given to Marius, they say.

Excerpt:
Regardless that this is partly anti-fan toned, this is a FAN article; this is a FAN's review from a FAN point of view on a film adaptation of a book with reasoning critisism, so this should be an accaptable article.

Over-all for why this pairing ruins the film's quality as an independent film:
This pairing doesn't have a place in this film's story as long as those other relationships that truly belong into it, exsist. And it's no wonder since Anne Rice didn't write Lestat to have such a relationship with Jesse or anyone else. In other words they try to force something...
