Bill compton cardboard cutout7/25/2023 He’s just there, and you kind of hope there will be more to him but you dig and dig and dig so more but.there’s. Even in the books, Eric is so superior to Bill Compton.Īnd it’s not just their looks, I promise.īill is so.I already said boring. Maybe a little bit (a lot), but watch the show and tell me that you wouldn’t chose Eric Northman. Who are we more jealous of? Lady Gaga or Alexander Skarsgard? Probably both.) Okay. (Or you know Bill Compton over Alcide Herveaux but we’ll get to him in a minute.) And this isn’t just because he’s played by Alexander Skarsgard (known for The Legend of Tarzan, Big Little Lies, The Stand and a Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” video. No woman in her right mind would choose Bill Compton over Eric Northman. The point is that when you compare Bill fucking Compton to Eric fucking Northman.there really is no competition. How funny is it that his wife played a mutant and he ended up playing one too? Stephen Moyer also played the dad, Reed Strucker, in the short-lived show (which was tragic because it’s great), The Gifted which was about mutants. You’re also not there for her love interest, Bill Compton played by Stephen Moyer (who is actually married to Anna Paquin and they have kids). In the books, she’s slightly more tolerable because she actually does something instead of just getting in everyone’s way. She’s grating, always needs saving and most of the time, causes more problems than she helps. Though really, it’s not her fault as it’s the directors for that horrible depiction of my favorite X-Men.) Sookie, frankly, is annoying in the show. The whole if you have nothing nice to say thing. When it comes to True Blood, you aren’t in it for the main character, Sookie Stackhouse, played by Anna Paquin (who also played Rogue in the X-Men movies but my comments on her Rogue is best left unsaid. Sure, it totally lost me with the Billith thing in like season six and what even was that season finale for season seven. Let me just say, HBO missed out by not following the books to the T. for an internship, I read all thirteen books while on my commute to and from my internship. So fall 2018 while I was in Washington D.C. After I finished the show, I found out that it was based off The Southern Vampire Mysteries series. Yeah, a scene like that would definitely stick with you, I imagine.Īround two years or so ago, I actually watched the entire show from start to finish. The scene that I most vividly remember from True Blood is in the first season where Jason Stackhouse goes to the hospital and has to have his dick drained of blood because he stupidly took too much V (vampire blood which is like a drug in this universe) and they uh, did this by.stabbing his dick with a huge ass fucking needle. You know, the way high school students did. I have a massive list.) We’d play it on the background while playing cards games and getting high. (Stay tuned for a blog post comparing True Blood and The Vampire Diaries. Much like with The Vampire Diaries, I actually watched a few episodes in high school but never watched it from the beginning. True Blood was an HBO show that ran from Septemto August 24, 2014. Today we are going to talk about True Blood. Instead, we are going to discuss a show that made me want to read the books. But today we aren’t discussing the movies or TV shows that made me not want to read the book. And due to how boring it was - seriously, there was no sense of urgency or like any connection to the characters - I now don’t want to read the book. You know the guy who has played Agent Smith in The Matrix, Megatron in the Transformers franchise, and you know Elrond in The Lord of the Rings. Not even Hugo Weaving could save that move. The problem with Mortal Engines, besides it being released after the dystopian rage, was that it left you with too many questions that never got answered, and frankly, it was boring. Instead they just kind of left you standing there like “That’s it?” But of course I didn’t like the Divergent movies because they were boring as hell.)Ĭheck out the trailer for Mortal Engines below. Or you know, that the last book even got turned into a movie. (Not that the Divergent series went anywhere compared to The Hunger Games or The Maze Runner. The Hunger Games, The Maze Runner and the Divergent series had already been released and over and done with. It was.well, we were already past the dystopian young adult movies, so really, it came out at the wrong time. But what about the movies or shows that you watch and you didn’t know it was a book? I mean you’ve read the books, you have imagined how the characters look and everything. Those are all horrible movies.) You read a book, you find out it’s going to be a movie or a TV show and you can’t help but be excited. (Please don’t even get me started on Eragon, Vampire Academy or Maximum Ride. Books that turn are turned into movies or TV shows are always a hit or miss.
