Jacob Anderson not having an Emmy for this show is my villian origin story.
Yes!! Jacob Anderson is incredible I hope he wins some Emmy's for Season 2, and all the other cast and crew as well. Hopefully this show finally get's the recognition it so richly deserves.
Sam Reid's performance is luminous. He's one of those perfect actor/character pairings that come along so rarely.
I read the books and omg he's amazing. It definitely takes a special actor to convincingly play a dynamic character like Lestat. Anne would have loved him!
@@nebulous8389I agree that Sam is a great actor, and amazing as Lestat. I couldn't imagine it being anyone else now, although I thought Tom Cruise was really good as Lestat as well. The one thing that I think is different from Sam Reid's Lestat and the books Lestat is the age. The book describes Lestat as being made a vampire in his early to mid twenties, but Sam depicts him more as someone who was made in his thirties. Since the character is immortal, I guess it doesn't matter anyway.
claudia was 14 when she was turned, and i think by the end of the last episode she was mentally 19
Yeah, but by the end of episode 5 I think she was in her 20's because remember she was gone for like 7 years before returning home to Louis.
I think she was probably over 26 by the end. She was 19 when she killed Charlie, I think. And then seven years of sleeping. Depending on how long she went on the serial killing bender, maybe 27-28...
In the last episode, she reveals she's in her thirties. But she still has teenage black and white thinking.
@@YouMe-ru6wi well at the beginning of this video, before watching episode 5, they were wondering how old she is already, so this comment is answering that question
This episode was brutal as hell. Honestly, this show is one of my favorite vampire portrayals ever.
Lestat is so chaotically messy but funny and also so scary he’s definitely my favourite character loving the reaction
Love that you're picking up on things like Lestat's wariness of the European vamps, that Louis wasn't present in the relationship while he was consumed with missing Claudia, that Daniel pushes painful buttons, that Claudia is far more like Uncle Les in her tendencies than Daddy Lou - and enjoying hearing your well thought out opinions after watching! Really enjoyed, thanks!
Louis didn’t rip out those pages to protect Claudia, he did it for himself. If her assault was going to be exposed, Louis should have at least given her the respect of letting it be in her own words. Giving those to the world could already be considered somewhat of a violation, but altering her private journals to make himself more comfortable with HER story is another level.
I hadn't thought of it this way but I agree. When I originally saw this episode, like many, my opinion of Lestat changed but also my opinion of Louis especially when Claudia returns. It's easy to see the toxicity between Lestat & Louis and Lestat & Claudia. I think this starts a closer examination of Louis & Claudia's relationship. Not to get spoiler-y so I'll stop there.
@@asteven8 There’s a recent clip of Sam Reid sort of reminding the audience we’ve never actually seen the real Lestat. All we know of him is from Louis’ perspective and a big part of this story is how unreliable he is as a narrator through lapses or inaccuracies in his memory. But choosing to intentionally take away Claudia’s voice, especially on such a sensitive and personal subject to lessen his own discomfort says a lot about his character.
It seems S2 is really going to get into how Louis (intentionally or not) manipulates the story and I look forward to seeing how that changes the characters and relationship dynamics.
@@Slappys Ooh, I had no idea about Sam Reid's comment. That totally tracks. I had already picked up on Louis being an unreliable narrator but not that element re Lestat. I feel like I need to rewatch S1 with that detail in mind. S2 can't get here fast enough!
this is a PHENOMENAL episode!! it's scary, tense, rage inducing, sorrowful and emotional all at once. what a ride
6:30 Claudia was screaming at them cause they read her most personal thoughts. That’s a huge boundary cross even for vampires living together for years
Rob and Bryce, Claudia was turned at 14 in SE1.
Bailey Bass was 17 at the time.
In the novel Claudia was five.
In the 1994 film Kirsten Dunst was 10 when she played the role.
Claudia in the books was only 5 years old physically. They changed quite a bit In this portrayal but I think she’s still unable to change others into vampires because she doesn’t have enough blood in her smaller body to provide for a successful transformation.
That makes sense!
She’s turned at 5?! That’s so fucked considering her storyline of wanting to be a woman. That legitimately makes me queasy…
I love when people outside of fandom appreciate this episode, I mean it's a controversial heavy one but it is a great episode!
If this series had been a HBO production, they would have been showered with Emmys. Sam Reid’s performance is a revelation.
True. I actually didn't want to watch it first because I kinda like the movie, and I'm tired of remakes. But it's surprisingly good, I'm shocked it so underrated.
If it was HBO, the production quality would have been higher. For AMC, this is very impressive though. Especially when compared to CW's Vampire Diaries.
Lestat is the villain you absolutely love to hate! And he’s very complex, but also predictable. There’s a reason he is the anti-hero of all the Vampire Chronicle books!
I think vampire strength and powers are a product of age, the age and strength of the vampire that created them, any vampiring blood they’ve consumed, and their own strength when human. Claudia is probably one of, if not the, weakest vampires.
Oh, Lestat. Our beloved wicked "Brat Prince". So happy to rewatch this show through fresh eyes before Season 2 begins.
In the books 'Bruce' aka 'Killer' doesn't show up until the third novel. As the leader of his own biker gang 'The Fang Gang' that he and Claudia were joking about in this episode. So there's a chance we'll see more of him. Also, I love how they use American and European History in the background to further illustrate the themes of the plot. The Roaring 20's while things were going great, than the Depression when things were not. And soon there is another World War brewing.
This episode is very controversial but for me it's perfect lol because it shows the manic state of the vampire in all its glory, apart from Louis all the vampires on screen succumbed to their most primitive brutal state.
and when Lestat says that vampires in Europe are vicious. it's just a preview for the second season. I just love this episode!
Claudia was turned at age14. At about 90 pounds, she simply doesn't have enough blood in her body to turn someone else. As for Louis, remember how he was with his old boyfriend Jonah out in the Bayou? Had to bite himself because, like Claudia with Charlie, Louis didn't have the enormous self-control yet to take "Un petit coup", the little drink. He bites to kill.
The Dark Gift is different for each of them.
living vicariously through your reactions oh how i wish i could see this show for the first time again :')
Sam Reid is definitely on another level to Tom Cruise's Lestat. Come to think of it, I much prefer Jacob Anderson's performance than Brad Pitt's Louis also.
In the books, Claudia is only 5 years old. For obvious reasons, they aged the character up to 14 in the show and the movie w/ Kirsten Dunst, I believe she’s 11.
Sam Reid is so wonderful in this show, u absolutely despise him but also are attracted to his magneticism just like Louis. Jacob is a perfect Louis! This episode is devastating to watch especially if u are unfortunately aware of domestic violence situations. Please take of urselves, everyone!
it's not that they are stopping time. It's just they can move faster than humans can see. SO it seems like time slows down.
Well no, because at the poker game in the first episode when Louis was human, Lestat definitely froze time while excluding Louis, which is why he wasn’t affected
@@m.a.2658 I believe it was more that he froze everyone in the room other than Louis. He can't actually control time, but he can control people's minds. He basically made them catatonic for a few minutes. Either that or he brought Louis into his sped up bubble somehow.
@@marybrown6128 That’s fair, I can see the first one. Although that begs the question, if he were able to do it indefinitely, would people age? If he did it while someone was dying would they keep dying or stop? If people’s minds and bodies genuinely are at a perfect standstill without outside influence (like the cheek scratch), is there a functional difference between that and time being frozen for those people? It’s interesting to ponder
@@marybrown6128 I don't think it was the catatonic thing since the flow of a drink that was being poured had also stopped. I'd guess that he froze time.
@@glossy283 interesting. I didn’t catch that, I’ll have to go back and watch it again.
Lestat is also my favourite character hes terrible but sooooo fun to watch
For me, Lestat hits that rare window of “Magnificent Bastard.” 😊
Louis and Lestats neighbors must hate them 😂
This is my personal favorite episode of the season. Just a truly dark and depressing episode. I started rooting for Claudia so hard in this episode.
I hope you guys react to season 2 when it comes out in May, that’s when Louis and Claudia go to Europe and we will most likely learn more about Lestat and Rashid
This comment is a spoiler cause from the finale you’re not supposed to know who rashid is
@@iFruit96 I mean they don’t even know who Armand is, so is not spoiling anything major to them. But I’ll edit it out.
@@rach2755 you bringing up another name shows he’s clearly not who he says he is. Making that a spoiler. Thanks for editing it out.
@@iFruit96 Thankfully it didn’t ruin anything they got to the finale and were like “who tf is Armand?"
Pretty sure that song at the end is Charles Manson which is a call back to what Daniel said about Claudia. Everyone is amazing but Sam Reid's performance is chilling! Only a few weeks until Season 2 premieres!
Sam Reid was required to take immersive French lessons to take on an authentic French accent for the show.
bryce thats your color!
This is my favorite episode the acting was unbelievable. Can’t wait for the new season.
I don't know why I feel like every episode of season two will be as intense as this 😳 I'm scared
What did they do? They turned her into a vampire.
The acting in this show is so good.
Great video guys! I always appreciate the consistency 😊
Lestat is definitely the character that you love to hate.
At first I thought it was an even battle between the two of them. Then I realized that this was basically domestic violence. Lestat the abusive husband beating Luis the battered wife. That’s why he would say to Claudia, “it’s OK. We’re done. Don’t come in here.“ And then the beatings kept coming…
Not true. Wait for Season 2 to see what actually happened during this fight scene. Louis’ version isn’t actually the truth.
AND while we were all distraught going through those last 10 minutes both Jacob and Sam LOVED filming all that lol they had so much fun they said
Please watch the Extended Look (not the official trailer) for season two when you're done watching this season! 🙏🏻
Thanks, Rob! Thanks, Bryce! 🧛♀ Levan Akin directed this episode... he will direct the next, as well.
Rob and Bryce, after finishing reactions to this series I'd love to see you two continue reacting to the Anne Rice Universe with it's 2023 series "Mayfair Witches" ( based on another series of her novels ).
It is 8 episodes and has been renewed for SE2 already.
Can't wait for the eventual crossover episodes.
Louis' contempt for Lestat for keeping information about vampires from him is a running theme in the book from the very beginning. I feel like they waited a while to really focus on that in this adaptation, but I'm glad it's being brought up still.
This whole show is just so well cast. Claudia was turned at abt 13 and she’s around 19/20 at the beginning this ep and her late twenties by the end of it. But bc she was turned so young she’s very impulsive and makes questionable decisions and has teen reactions a lot of the time.
This one was so captivating to watch but also heartbreaking. They’re basically married and it’s a strong example of domestic violence. Especially Lestat saying ‘I’m trying to restrain myself’ as he’s beating Louis within an inch of his immortal life. They did almost too good of a job depicting how awful it can be.
I hope you continue with season 2. Love your reaction!
i adore that you guys are covering this series
Great reactions as always 😊 I love this show so much
Loving these reactions
The cloud gift which Lestat uses to fly and the fire gift which Louis uses to burn the tapes are attributes of Ancient Vampires or access to blood. Lestat and Louis are young vampires compared to others in the series and young Vampires typically get those powers from drinking from Ancient Vampires.
lestat got it from akasha and louis got it from lestat most likely
You guys should watch Beef if you haven't already
Such a good episode!! I can't wait for season 2🎉
with the floating on ep1 as it happened when lestat was drinking from Louis and he described it as feeling like a drug I thought that them "Flying" was how Louis felt not that they were actually flying at the time even though now obviously we know lestat can fly
Such an amazing show
Best episode ❤❤❤❤ Sam should be swimming in awards
I’m so early!
I can just see Bryce’s serious face when uploading this episode for some reason))))
If you're confused about the speakeasy scene where Lestat marks Tom Anderson on the face while Louise walks over to the police Captain, it's because Tom Anderson not only asked them there for a political contribution, but to lure them out in public so the police could search their home without them being there and the police captain could get a good look at them. They saw through the ruse, so Lestat stopped time so they could mark Tom and the captain as a warning not to mess with them.
Louise never had a chance in the fight with Lestat. Lestat wasn't lying when he said he was trying to restrain himself. He could have easily killed Louise. Lestat has power that only the most ancient vampires usually have, as evidenced by his ability to fly.
for me the show was alright at the beginning but adding Claudia to the mix brought another level of intensity. she's awesome despite turning at just 14 as she's cunning, smart yet incredibly tragic (which u will see more of in later episodes)
also not to spoil too much but Claudia is everything Louis should've been towards Lestat (treatment wise) but he's too weak hearted to leave Lestat crazy ass
The episode I've been waiting for.......
I think using their powers too much drains them. I'm not positive though. Remember when Lestat's ear was bleeding when he was controlling all of those soldiers to leave?
Thumbnail showing Rob covering his neck.... intentional?! 😂
you guyssss
❤❤
Jacob Anderson played in the 2008 Movie Streets of London "Adulthood. really good movie to react to, but before that the first Part "Kidulthood"
This episode is always a tough one to watch 😭
It's a great episode😢😂
🎉
If you want to see European vampires, stay tuned!!
this episode caused so many ppl to be upset when it originally aired 😂😂
The day this episode came out was the day I officially decided to quit Twitter, lmfao. I already people were gonna be pissed off and had no interest in that mess.
@@yasminemixon9340 yeah it was exhausting defending the show at that time, ppl already were dumping on it because Louis was black and not white like in the books smh
So what you guys may be missing is the fact this interview is a continuation from the movie that happened way back. There is a lot of inconsistencies from the story. Louis is telling Daniel today versus when they first met. Daniel is not trying to let Louis lie to him again
So he’s pressing those source spots because in order to truly tell an authentic story, you have to be honest at all times even about the difficult parts.
Spoiler!!!
I can’t believe that Louis was sucking Rashid’s blood in front of Daniel because when two vampires suck each other’s blood that is then having sex (in the vampire chronicles, at least, blood sucking is an allegory) and they are doing it in front the f DANIEL, who then is Rashid’s lover 😭😭
book purist were also upset that lestat sucked louis blood in that domestic violence scene because that would be seen as "rwape" according to the books
@@Buniverself omg, I didn’t even think about that, but obviously we can rule it out because they do have sex in this adaptation
@@bibivallejo true
Hey guys! I was wondering why haven't you uploaded your ATLA reactions yet after episode 7 and 8? Or i just can't find them? Thanks
Zuff was sick so they took a small break until he got better
@@yasminemixon9340 oh okay! I thought they dropped it i couldn't find notice anywhere. Hope they took their time. Thank you by the way
It wasn't a cool vampire action scene, it wasn't even a fair fight. It was just one-sided domestic violence and I find it interesting that you guys didn't see it that way. As someone who went through similar experiences as a child, I could feel how scary and painful it must have been for Claudia.
louis is the best character of all time and the loml. i hate lestat sympathisers because he’s a fucking domestic abuser,, claudia is my daughter
She was 14 when she turned.
Once you've seen the finale which I know you have... (but I'm not sure all of your viewers have so I'll be vague) this scene feels MUCH weirder. 🥴 4:40
Where’s atla??!??? 👀👀👀
tomorrow!
If you guys have to urge to react to the 1994 movie do not watch it until AFTER you've seen season 2 other series. It will spoil mjor events of the story.
Lestat is a monster. I am finding it hard to understand why he's so beloved. Show me a redeeming quality because I don't see it.
He has plenty, but it would be spoiler to say one to you, also, some of us really like fucked and evil characters, not everything needs to be "good" for us to enjoy and love a character
Yeah he’s a definitely a monster and definitely irredeemable, but some people like that in their fictional characters. I don’t personally like his character at all. I think he’s abusive and a tyrant but he’s acted EXTREMELY well by Sam Reid. I dislike his character but I so appreciate Sam Reid’s performance of him. It’s breathtaking. That’s why as much as I appreciate him getting his just deserts at the end of the season I was a tiny bit sad about it lol.
You are meant to not see it. Remember there are more than a dozen other books after this one. One page in one book can change the Universe for a good writer. And Anne was a great writer.
He’s the villain you love to hate. He’s just a drama queen, and dramatics move a story (especially like this) along.
Fictional people are not meant to be likeable or good, he's a compelling interesting character to watch, personally Louis is my favorite character but I can see why people love Lestat.
I hate that Daniel pushed and pried so much about Claudia’s rape. You do not need details.
