Book Favorite

"Jonathan Cott is somebody we all know in our circle to be a quiet genius. Rolling Stone asked him to interview us a few times. This book is a collection of those interviews. Nothing more. Reading it, I thought “Wow, we weren’t bad at all.” Because most writers wanted to sensationalize us, thinking that if they didn’t do that, it might be boring – and nobody would buy the book! So their ‘interviews’ usually came out nothing like what we were like. I have never recommended any books about John and Yoko. But this book made me choke up. I heard John in my ears and felt him in my heart. This is a good book for Lennon fans. And I.. Well, I come out as the second banana (okay, okay!) You will get an inkling of two people in love, sometimes making daring remarks, yet not forgetting to protect each other in the interviews. In fact, this is really the way we were, folks! Have a good read."

ummmmm WHAT?
Ok so I watched this a few days after rewatching Interview with a Vampire. I had seen it before, but remembered very little.
This movie was a hack job and sought to combine the Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Damned into a movie under 2 hours. It's a poor adaption, and that's all I'm going to say about that.
Stuart Townsend wasn't a bad Lestat overall. Of course, he didn't look like him at all, and his backstory was... again, this was a hack-job. There were numerous plot holes and it just ends... It's strange.
Aaliyah was alright, and I think it suffered because she passed just after principle photography. I'm sure with re-shoots, this film may have been better. RIP Aaliyah.
The best part of this entire film was the soundtrack, written by some dudes from KORN. It was sufficiently moody, and honestly, I wouldn't mind if they scores/wrote the music for the new series. The music is the only reason I rated this as high as I did.
