thread_title: circular link

message: I added a cleanup template to this article, it's total trash at the moment.  There is a section about how the book differs from the film (which is the only real content in this article) except it's disjointed, sophomoric and repetitive.  It's comprised of several run-on sentences, and would only make sense if juxtaposed with a paragraph explaining the storyline of the film.  I'll try to improve it when I have time.

message: What's the difference between the PAL and NTSC versions? It seems that the length of the movie is the only difference. Does anyone know more about this? Would be cool if it would've been featured more prominently in the article. EliasAlucard|Talk 12:07, 13 Sept, 2005 (UTC)
PAL and NTSC are encoded differently.  PAL sources usually have a slightly lower frame rate, thus resulting in a slightly shorter running time.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.76.60.162 (talk) 00:56, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Length

message: There was mention that the movie failed to address the fact that making a child a vampire was not allowed. Looks like somone noticed this was incorrect and rather than removing the text they added an argument. I remember the line the person did mention so i removed their addition as well as the text that they were arguing against (since it is untrue). It may not have been emphasized as much in the movie, but it certainly was implied. --Mr. Dude †@£К ║ Çøת†яĭβü†ĬŎИ 17:22, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Book movie discrepancy 

message: This section is awful.  Why on earth are we going into all these details about differences in the plots of the movie and the book when there's no basic plot description of either?  It seems to me that, as people suggest earlier, the book and movie should be split up.  Plot similarities/differences aside, this would allow the article on the book to focus on stuff having to do with the book (publication, relation to other books in the series, etc.), and the article on the movie to focus on stuff having to do with the movie (production details, cast, crew, and so forth).  The article on the book should describe the plot of the book in a normal way, and the article on the movie should describe the plot, and note differences with the book.  john k 19:10, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Book vs. Film" 

message: There is an official Japanese manga of IWTV & lots of doujinshis. Also, there was a Japanese band called Malice Mizer who used lines from the IWTV movie in a song called Transylvania, not to mention the vocalist at that time; Gackt, has a music video where he went back & forth between being dressed like Louis & Lestat. Lastly, the anime NIGHTWALKER is believed heavily to be anywhere from overtly inspired to actually ripping-off IWTV due to overwhelming coincidences. I'm willing to provide images, sources, & information to anyone willing to compile & publish the information.

message: I'm splitting the book and movie into separate articles as I did with The Queen of the Damned. Please bear with me while the move is in progress. The movie will be at Interview with the Vampire (film).--Canley 13:26, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Splitting taking place now 

message: The section about the film in this article conflicts with information in the article about the film re: Anne Rice's choice of actors for Lestat.207.69.137.26 03:01, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Conflict between (book) and (film) articles 

message: If I remember correctly, it is Lestat not Louis who uses the expression Savage Garden, and is first mentioned in The Vampire Lestat. So wouldn't it be inappropriate to mention it in this article?JanderVK (talk) 13:30, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right. I just finished the book and found no reference to it. StevePrutz (talk) 14:35, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

text: "Hell Bells", "Devil's Path", and "Savage Garden" are metaphores used by Lestat the first time in "The Vampire Lestat". I think that, as nobody has done it, I'll erase that part of the article. If anybody has an objection, please tell me so and we'll reverse my doings.The Brat Princess (talk) 08:44, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

message: In chapter 36 of Varney the Vampire, we read Flora had made concerning her most singular and deeply interesting interview with the vampyre.  Did Rice ever discuss whether her title was merely descriptive, or a lift from this classic work?  Count Robert of Paris (talk) 23:07, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Title Source 

message: I added some citations in Adaptations underneath the comics subheading since there were none before. I mainly cited comics.org since it had the most information and was the most reliable source out of what I could find. Still not sure it is reliable enough to be cited, so if anyone finds a better site I'd encourage you to change it.
Also, finding a citation for the statement "A Japanese manga adaptation by Udou Shinohara was published in 1994 by Tokuma Shoten" proved very difficult to the point that I left it as a [citation needed]. The only sources I could find were sketchy anime sites and fan pages so, again, if you can find anything reliable that would be great. Here's some sites to start with, though I can't promise the info is correct:
