#amc promo

Okay imma quickly just break my Tumblr hiatus for this one thing.

Here is a picture of my very old, very well worn 1999 copy of the first Vampire Diaries novel, first published in 1991. Once you open the book and start reading, you're going to realise very quickly that one of the main characters (slash love interests) is able to shape change into a crow, the feathers of which are surrounding our pretty, blonde heroine's features.

Why am I randomly posting this now, in the year of Our Lord 2023, you ask?

I am posting it because of this promo image for AMC 2024 IwtV, which I now place side by side the previous cover:

The, uh, the compositions are pretty close to being the same, are they not?

And what did it bring to mind when I first saw this promo material? Well, it's interesting, because I started looking at this in mind of Louis who, while being shown in other materials as being the typical noir heroine in the face of the danger Armand poses.

No sign of that danger here. Louis looks straight up like the man of the house, in charge of his dwindling family.

But Armand's not there in this promo material. Or is he?

I point your attention again to the Vampire Diaries cover, and the crow that signifies Damon Salvatore, definitely the Byronic-hero of the piece, and I don't care how much they salvaged him for TV.

And now look at the red theatre curtain on the left. Just as Elena is portrayed as the heroine being covered (consumed?) by the crow that signifies Damon, Lestat has something similar going on with the theatre curtain signifying Armand through his Theatre des Vampires.

They're softening Lestat, people.

They are preparing the viewers to forget EP5 in order to make way for a new villain: the utter monstrousness of Armand going psycho in mid-century Paris.

Yeah, you guys better strap in and be ready for not seeing what Armand really is until after you've stepped into this elevator. By then, it's gonna be well too late.
