Interview with the Vampire Ep 1 (In Throes of Wonder): Reaction/ Review/ Commentary 

great reaction as always and I'm about to spoil you.....ok iv got nothing I just love your channel and I'm here for your reactions have a wonderful day

i think what happened with paul was very realistic. people who are contemplating taking their own lives might show some warning signs, but those who have already 100% decided to do it tend to keep their plan to themselves and act normal on the outside.

The actor who plays Louis or Grey worm is British in real life. So he's putting on an American/Creole accent in this show. The guy who plays Lestat is Australian in real life and he's putting on a French accent for the show. Both of their accent work is very very strong, in my opinion. It is not bad! I've heard way WAY more inconsistent accent work, in the past. They must just be very good at accents or they worked very close with an accent coach for this project.

The story Lestat said about his father was true. As a result, Lestat REEEEEEEEEEALLY hates the church and those who work for it.

"Louie I don't want you to embarrass yaself....SOMETHIN tells me the gentleman has MORE money" 🤣😂🤣 girl the way I HOLLERED when you said that cuz I watched thinking the SAME thing I was like "Oh baby no don't do that please"

When you said: "What happened?" then immediately went "Lestat" I laughed so hard I was crying. That's the funniest reaction omg.

Lestat never lies to Louis. He may keep things from him, or only tell him part of something, but he always tells him the truth. He read Paul's mind. He said Paul longed for death, so that's what he heard in Paul's head.

The choices: 1. Die (Lestat: "Weeeell, you said you wanted to die anyway so I can do you a favour by killing you. Aren't I sweet?") OR 2. Become a vampire (Lestat: "You will be my companion because you're hot, I'm hot and we can be hot together").

This Lestat wouldn't have killed him if he said no. He actually has fallen in love with him. He would just keep trying to convince him. He's got nothing but time. This is the Lestat from the other books. The Lestat from Louis original, bitter, angry interview telling, would probably have killed him with a 'no', but that Lestat, in that original interview, met Louis one night, bit him and tuned him the next night. This Lestat actually got to know Louis over weeks and weeks.

They already renewed the show for season 2 before the first episode aired on TV (it came out a week before on AMC+). I am so very excited for the rest of this season!

To have some background: 1. This is all based of a series of books by Anne Rice called The Vampire Chronicles. The first was published in 1976 and Anne was grieving the death of her 5 year old daughter. The sequel gets made about 9 years later called The Vampire Lestat (Anne has since changed a lot). 2. The first BOOK is the interview Louis gives about his life as a vampire. A big part of it was his relationship with Lestat and his challenges with leaving his humanity behind, which caused a lot of fights with Lestat. 3. He talks of how cruel Lestat was and manipulative. He says he used him for money (Louis is slave owner in the books and makes big cash). When their relationship gets especially tough Lestat decides a child can fix it and in enters Claudia (5 year old girl turmed vamp). 4. Happiness comes but doesn't last. Claudia can't age and is mad them both. A lot happens after that and book ends with Louis alone after another failed relationship with another Vamp, Armand, who is also alone and Lestat is alone. 5. Book two (9 years later) is Lestat's side of the story. Louis was lying. Not all of it but a lot and the rest Lestat challenges with how it looks from his perspective. Lestat is the narrator for the rest of the books and this decision is tied to the state of Anne who lead with grief (Louis) in the first book then appectance (Lestat) in the rest and Lestat becomes the hero. The show uses the interview to embed the readaptation. The first interview was kept secret (in the book Daniel makes a book on the interview), Daniel grows old and mature and Louis wants to tell the story again and by now all the things that happen in The Vampire Chronicles has happened. Louis takes back his harsh understanding of Lestat and tells a more unbiased story. They change a lot from the books but it works well.

Giiirrrl you had me on the floor with this reaction 😂😂😂

5 mins and I'm SUBSCRIBED. There aren't many people reacting to this show but you are FAAAAAAR above the others. I hope you continue. The fact that they're drawing from all 13 books published between 1976 - 2018 means I'm expecting INSANITY. I'm loving how people who didn't read the books are soooo suspicious of Lestat. 😂 Also - YOUR EDITS OMG

"Wow, what a romance, y'all!" 🤣 Speeding up the video hurts my brain (cause of medical issues, but I get why you do it) but I love your commentary. Will definitely watch your other reactions to this show. The bit about Lestat wanting to be a priest is actually part of Lestat's backstory in the books. That's why he gets all shouty about it; it hit a nerve. RE: Paul. If you rewatch that roof scene knowing what happens at the end, you can tell he's saying goodbye. He wants to make sure his brother and sister are going to be alright before he checks out.

Not the wingardium leviosa for THAT scene 🤣

I like that the brother mentioned the Mayfair witches,because that show will be here in January

Lestat didn't make Paul jump/fall/slip. It was just Paul himself.

Fun reaction video, thanks. And glad you're liking it - I loved the book series growing up so I was so excited for this adaptation and also for their making all the gay stuff from the books explicit on the screen, lol. And the show's so good. And, seriously, about the mother - "don't put that on me, put it in a book, put it in a bottle," lol. She was wrong for that. Also, "Lestat, I thought you were suave," lol - so true. But Lestat's less suave and more a predator, so he attacked when his prey was weak (mourning at brother's funeral). In that light, his timing made perfect sense. He wanted Louis and made his move at the perfect moment of vulnerability and willingness to take a leap into something new (the dark gift).

you are HILARIOUS oh my god such a fun reaction! subscribed!

I nearly peed my pants! You had me laughing so freaking hard. Wingardium leviosa! LOL!

Pausing during the intro to say that I love your energy and your reason for reacting to media

Lestat didn't kill Paul and he loves Louis, he would have let him go if he had said no. Especially because he never got a choice himself; he was kidnapped and turned without any say in the matter, at least in the books. We are yet to see what his backstory is in this show but given that they made the whole monastery story canon, I think it's probably close to the original story which basically means that Lestat has a lot of trauma that he carries around. The man in damaged, obviously, and completely removed from his own humanity. Which is part of the reason he is so attracted to Louis, because he's the other way around; he is kind and loving, considerate and caring; they are each other's polar opposites which causes them to clash horribly and makes the relationship super toxic, yet there's so much love there too that keeps them coming back for more.

Omfg this reaction is a masterpiece but also like the moment of Louis confession when you go “what is happening.. lestat *legendary sigh/eye roll* I literally laughed till I couldn’t get a breath

27:20 with the whispered questions had me rolling 🤣🤣🤣

🛑; Lestat stalked Louis before they met, He found out where all of Louis's regular hang-out spots were and would be there before Louis got there, (That's why he was there with Ms Lily, and at the card game at the beginning.) Lestat was trying to shoot his shot. 🔺After the 3-Some with Ms. Lily, Louis said he didn't plan on going back to his house., But Lestat had already made up his mind that they were gonna be together!) His yes was under duress. / Your commentary and edits!... lol 😅👍🏼

i had so much fun watching this lol i loved your commentary and editing. thanks for the laughs

LMFAO THE SOUND EFFECT HAS ME SCREAMING

Please: Paul did not FALL off the roof. Paul WALKED off the roof. ... Perhaps his birds told him to do so.

Loved this! you are so funny, looking forward to more

@17:34 “oh Miss Lilly, you about to earn every penny!” LOL!!! Sub’d worthy for that line alone - but there’s so many other good ones too! LOL, love this, I’m laughing like a fool, it’s like watching with a bunch of my friends, love it! :-) :-) :-)

There' seduced and there's long winded. LOL.

This is like watching this with a friend. I live for this 🙌 😍

You were good you sound a little like Keke Palmer

The whole business with Paul.. Lestat didnt tell him spooky shit nor made him jump.. the show made it a bit unclear but Paul had mentall issues for his whole life, and it was all him saldy :( In the books Lestat didnt even meet Paul and Louis when this happens..

I'm so glad I found your channel. This reaction was great. I laughed so many times.

I love your reaction so much!!! I hope you do more of these 😄

An observation...Lestat HATES rejection. When he approached Louis during the funeral procession, he said, "My condolences"...totally appropriate. If Louis had simply said something like, "Thanks, but not now", or even something like, "Yeah, I'll get back to you", whether he meant it or not, that would have sufficed for Lestat. I understand why Louis responded that way, but It's not what you say...it's how you say it. He pushed Lestat's buttons. Once pushed, the verbiage flows from the lips and only Lestat knows how it's gonna come out. That's why they call him the brat prince!

When Louis told Paul he would bleed him like a kochon bruh.....whew!!!!!! Me and Lestat fell in love at that very moment!

I was looking for good reactions videos to this... Well, MASTERPIECE and i decided to stay with you

love your commentary so much! 😁

I first saw your reactions from a reaction compilation that "REACT THIS I$ IT" channel did (The Sandman reactions) and I HAD to look you up and watch your full reactions to the show!! I'm one of those people who need to talk about a show/movie as it's playing and talk about EVERYTHING! I watched all your Sandman reactions tonight lol, and I'm about to start on these Interview reactions, I had to stop at the five minute mark and tell you how much I love your reactions and it's refreshing hearing someone discuss things about the show/movie in detail like you do!! You crack me up so much lol!!! Thanks for sharing a part of yourself and your fun personality with us all here, people like me really need it and love it!

I really enjoyed your review . You are very funny and a joy to watch :)

I just discovered your channel today, and I loved your reaction! You have a new subscriber! :)

Just found your channel and couldn’t stop laughing. Definitely subscribing because I love watching movies/shows and talking a lot to!

The way u just casually took a hit off that joint. Sis I’m here for it

Shalaya, that wingardium leviosa bit was hilarious. Instant subscribe! I'm loving your commentary, and that blouse/dress (?). ^_^

I wish i found this series earlier. Love ur channel!

I literally subbed, put on notifications and liked the video and within 30 seconds of playing it and every single time you made me cackle with your commentary I had to make sure I was subscribed 😂🤣 Sorry for the oblivion, I'm a bit 🍁😙💨 Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed this reaction 😁👍

You are so entertaining 😂❤

This is the best reaction!!

Loved your reaction subscribed

Love your reaction!

luv your glasses 🙂

I hope you react to the other episodes too! :D Love the editing in this. Louis's mom was so unfair...

Im too high to watch these reactions cause I’m dying😂…seriously this is how I sound watching this show too🤣😂

Ok now I’m starting from the beginning

You sound kinda like Keke Palmer when I close my eyes.

10:29 you cracked me up so baddddd lmfao ....you are so funny

Omg your reactions are so me, 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰

I just found your channel (because binge watching videos on IWTV lol), you are so fun to watch, great comments and editing! Subbed immediately! Keep them coming, please do watch the film! Greetings from Brazil ✌️

I love your reactions, please keep reacting to the whole series.

I’m so thrilled you are watching this! I am so scared I’m not going to like this version. After experiencing whiney book lovers watching Netflix’s The Witcher and The Sandman, both of which I loved, and I am no prior book/comic reader, this time is different. I grew up with the book series, as it was being written, always waiting for the next book. Already there are some changes I’m a little disoriented by, but it’s ok. What they are doing is fun. Except I can tell you right now I’m no happy with Claudia NOT being a child.

15:49 this is the only time Louie stands up for himself and others. After this he allows everything to happen.

I love louis accent its perfect especially since hes British

7 Episodes. Season 2 already greenlit.

You're hilarious! Now go watch episode 2 to for more unrelenting Lestat evil manipulations.

You’re hilarious omg 😭😭😭

you can stop now. i don't want your ash in my lungs! 😆

@18:22 Not leviosa!🤣

Hehe😂🦄🔥

Watch the movie! Would love to see your reaction to it!

Love you 💟💟💟💟😘

Yes you should do a reaction to the movie, and they made a prequel called queen of the Damned

You having a good day?

Please watch the original it's good as well

💭I think Lestat would've kidnapped him, or killed him if he said no!... (but he was using all his brainwashing, telepathy, love-bombing tricks on him too.)😏

This first season only covers half of interview with the vampire book with Claudia and Louis fleeing to Europe so season 2 is going conclude interview with the vampire book with the introduction of:Armand, Santiago, theater vampires and death of Claudia.

one thing about this episode I thought to myself...his bro is preaching n God fearing but why not have the bro go join a monastery n become a real priest n preach all the time...also if the bro is disgusted by the job loui does why live off those riches n live in that house n eat that food n sleep in that house but turn around n talk smack about the family business n continue to preach God this n God that...like wat??😂😅😤😮‍💨🙃🤔🤔🤔🤔🤪I'm just sayin

I still think lestat killed Paul or had something to do with it

That's how you know Lestat killed Paul. After Louis rejected him openly at Paul's funeral, Lestat systematically started killing everyone Louis cared anything about out of spite.
