Godrick... is NOT supposed to be Eric's maker. Also made me incredibly mad. -_-' Eric's maker is supposed to not even be mentioned for another five seasons or so.
Bill isn't supposed to be in this season at all but of course they don't even stick to any semblance of the books and it's getting frustrating. I'm only watching the season in hopes of seeing Eric in those red undies. |
another 5 seasons! how many seasons are there! oy jeeze! Godrick is still hot.
|
there's currently... 11 books. So if they're going by that... more than 11. Although I suspect it will be cancelled/ended first.
|
I try not to compare the books to the show. It's better to think of them as separate. Or else you will be frustrated and not enjoy yourself. o_o Just trying to ease your pain. The makers of the show just want everything to be new and surprising. Which they are doing a good job with. ^^ I get surprised all the time. If the show were predictable and obvious, I don't think people who be attracted to it. I'm a big fan of Eric, and enjoy everything about him ;] I think he is the best guy for sookie (even though I want him!).
|
I haven't read the books I don't know if I ever will I might try one day though I have a ton of other books I want to read and I have been more into historical fiction lately then fantasy.
wow 11 books and counting. they might not cancel it but they might skip stuff to make it go faster not many shows last 11+ seasons. |
That's true...Most shows don't / or won't go on for that long...
Maybe until season 9 or possibly 8 it would end. I don't know many shows that have 10 seasons (are there?) But yes. I enjoy the books. I don't read alot but I liked them. It takes something really interesting for me to read and finish books. Maybe I will buy the rest of them eventually! <3 |
I /try/ to separate them, but when they are butchering the characters (bill and Sam and tara) and fucking up entire things (fairies, most of the plot) I have a hard time with it. The characters are barely the same. Same names different characters almost. Sam is /not/ at all supposed to be like he is, and it's frustrating. They at least kind of kept Eric. Bill's not supposed to be an ass (although I do hate him regardless of the show or books) and uuuuugh.
I think I may be able to deal with the plot differences if they would at LEAST of made the characters have the same personalities. -_-' |
The only personality that annoys me very much is Tara's. She just cries all the time and quivers her lip and eyebrow all the time. She needs to be tough! Seriously! But I guess they might make her "tough-ish" with the whole fighting thing that she is doing? They are pushing Bill into being an ass, I guess. But seriously, I just hope people see Bill for the crap that he is. You still like the show, right? There may be drastic differences with the book - show thing. But I still love the show for what it is. As far as the way the characters are acting in the show, Sookie annoys me because she still doesn't like Eric. I hope that changes! (It better)
|
I love Tara, she's very strong to me, considering everything that she's gone threw. And if I do read the rest of the books, I will think of the Show, and the Books, as two different things, otherwise I won't finish the books. xDD |
Tara is awesome don't get me wrong. But she has been acting the same through the whole thing. I feel so bad for her. I just want good stuff to happen to her. She is always so messed up :/
Yeah. You need to enjoy the awesome splendor that is awesomeness xD I'm so excited for tomorrow! |
Yes! Fang Sunday! xDD So excited! I want to see what happens with Eric and Sookie! And why Tara had a gun pointed at Pam. Pam, another one of my favorite characters. <3 On another note, I don't really care what happens between Sam and his brother. :// xDD |
Sam is the most drastic to me. He's snippy and an ass in the show, when he's supposed to be very patient and kind in the books. It's incredibly frustrating mostly with him. And although I hate Bill, he's still supposed to be overall a damn good guy, but with mistakes. In the show they're also making him into an ass.
But I'm glad Sookie doesn't like Eric yet. It's not supposed to happen yet. She's not supposed to really love him for him for quite a while still... But that's just... based off the books. XD But that part of plot change I won't mind unless they ex out poor Quinn. God I hope they bring him in. I looooved me my Quinn! OH AND ANDY! WTF ARE THEY DOING WITH ANDY? x.x' God, they're fuckin' up the characters more than they are the plot more that I think on it. And that's pretty hard to do... ~sigh~ |
Bill and Sam are getting on my nerves the most so far. xDD However maybe he'll get better later?? And I didn't think Sookie would actually fall in love with Eric. o.o And Quinn??? New character I shall look for in the season(s)! Also I don't know what's happening with Andy, I haven't even read the books yet I know they are messing him up. xDD |
I've spoiled myself with all the previews and sneak peaks that they released :> Tara is starting to Piss me off..First she tried to kill Eric when he interrupted the witch thing, and now she is trying to kill Pam?? WTF! NOOO!
Tommy is hilarious! Even when he isn't suppose to be xD He is just all like "I can't f'ing read!" I just cracked up..I don't know why. Well they did make him have a rough past. Maybe they will change his ways later in the book. He can't stay KIND forever :p That would just be "unrealistic" I guess they are trying to at least make they behaviors something that would happen in real life? I hate Bill,even if they did make him a "good guy" I still wouldn't like him. So I don't really care about that as long as sookie friggin understands that he is a douche! She is still backing him up even when he is an ASS, so I guess they are really trying to make sookie not like him at all anymore , which is what I want! Sookie starts liking Amnesia Eric. I mean she spends time with him after all! Taking care of him and whatever. How can you Not love him?? ^^ But actually LOVE LOVE him...Yeah that happens later. I want to see who plays Quinn! Andy is crazy douche bag too! Stop with the V already! My brother is even annoyed by it xD |
It would be frustrating to watch it if it's not true to the books I guess it's a good thing I have never read it but it's also a good thing as well for me because if I ever do read it it will be different I am not good at reading things when I already know whats going to happen.
I read a book and they made a movie out of it and the movie totally butchered the book it made me mad they might as well have not said the movie was based of the books because they just made everything backwards compared to the book if I was the writer of the book I wouldn't have let them make the movie after I read the script. |
As a writer, you sell the rites to the book to the movie producers when they buy it. You have no choice on the script or nothing. I believe at least.
Well Sam's got his points in the books, but overall he's a level-headed and nice guy. That's just his personality, that's how he is. And they've made him into just a manwhore asshole in the show it seems and it's making me so mad. x.x' |
I wouldn't sell it to them unless I had some say in it lol no way i would let them mess up my story!
|
Did anyone watch tonight's episode?? Eric was adorable. >.< As to selling movie rights, I'm not going to lie, I probably would do it, even without a say so, so it's understandable to me. >.< |
I loved last night's episode. Eric was so adorable with his lost memories... I love the way Alex plays the lost look... SO CUTE! And the way he says sorry all the time now... XD
|
I've watched two episodes - the first one, after which I lost access to HBO and couldn't be bothered to look up and watch the show online, and a week or so ago my friend made me watch one of the more recent episodes (no idea where the show's at now, so I can't how many episodes ago it was). I thought it was interesting, but not exactly spectacular.
I'm more into reading the books than watching the show, if I'm honest. I read the first chapter of the first book, and while there were several questionable, cheesy lines, the environment in which the story takes place is interesting to me. |
The people who make the show BASED off the books don't make it the same. Or else you'd be watching the exact same thing you've read and everything would just be Copied. They wanted to make it different and spontaneous I guess. For the people who've seen the show First, the LOVE the show for what it is. You just have to have an open mind about it, and just enjoy.
Take my hand and let's enjoy Amnesia Eric together, shall we?? HE WAS SO FRIGGIN adorable! i was squeeing the entire time! how the hell can someone be so gosh darn cute!? |
Eric was so lost and adorable!! I loved when he apologized for killing Sookies godmother. xDD. xDD |
no no no I didn't watch it I can't read any comments on it no spoilers please! lol
|
@Kira: I know! I was friggin' out so much. Cute-ness over load. My heart rate seriously sky rocketed! ^^ He is like a baby! I love him! I just wanted to Hug the crap out of him!!!
@Fey: Watch it! It was soooo awesome!! <3 |
I will try to remember.
|
Hahaha I seriously acted like this... http://i52.tinypic.com/15mikjs.jpgI'm crazy. o_o
|
lol thats a funny clip I have acted like that before for tv and movies.
|
Yeah. I act like that alot only when it comes to movies and tv. And in real life...with everyday things..I just put on this face http://media.curse.com/CommunityServ...ous%20face.jpg I swear, things are just better explained through pics. ^^
|
lol yeah I probably get that face alot as well!
|
Now I have to wait a whole week for the new episode D;
This kills me. |
thats why i some times (most of the time) wait until the while season is out but it's also good to watch it live because if the ratings aren't good then the show will get canceled. though most shows I want to watch live I couldn't because I don't have cable or anything like that.
|
That's true. Because waiting sucks! like how they say.
But I can't wait longer because I've been waiting a whole year to watch the season...o_o So when the new episode comes out. I get way to tempted D; There is no way I could keep myself from watching the new release episodes. No way. |
lol well either way you have to wait
|
That's true..But I would know what happens earlier than watching it all later -later ;]
|
Do you buy them when they come out on DVD?
|
Unfortunately no. But I will eventually! xD Right now I want to sell some of the movies I have / own. Because no one watches them..and we don't even remember getting them.
So maybe after I organize my stuff. xD But Oh yes. I will buy them eventually! ^^ Do you? |
Only if I can find them cheap enough.
I am also waiting for Tudors to get cheap so I can buy all those seasons as well. I am also hoping that they will make a box set with all the Harry potter movies and when that becomes cheap I will buy all those as well. I don't like to spend more then $10 on a dvd though I don't know what I would consider cheap for a box set. |
Box sets Range on price. I once bought a box set for almost 100 dollars.
But that was reasonable considering there were MANY dvd in that box set with Tons of episodes. But it wasn't the whole show. I have the Godfather box set. The star wars set, and the lord of the rings box set. ^^ I love them. I also have the Yuyu hakusho box sets. But yesh. I will buy the True Blood box sets eventually!!! That day will be awesome!<3 |
The true blood box sets sell for about $60 a season around here. thats too much for me!
|
Ah I see . I haven't really checked the prices. But that's okay...I'll just gather up some money from my brother . He and I can just put our money together. Since we are both fans ^^
I love him. <3 |
