In Reply to: Stephen King meets Anne rice poll posted by AshFan on November 06, 2003 at 10:37:37:
: Be honest, after reading the vampire chronicles, didn't you identify with being one? Didn't you have the thought..."you know, drinking blood sounds like the way to go!"? And after reading the gunslinger, didn't you get a mirror to see if you could 'draw' that fast?
I did the mirror thing... I am not that fast FYI.
: If Stephen King, and Anne Rice wrote a book together, what would it be called? What's the basic plot?
Lestat moves to Salems lot, only to find that the city counsel wants him out. Hijinks ensue.
: Could the "Pennywise", the Clown in, "It", beat up Lestat AFTER he drank the queens blood (not the queen of urban legend, the other queen, the vampire chic)?
Pennywise would tear him up, and keep Lestats still conscious disembodied head to talk to on those cold, lonely sewer nights.
: If Roland (the Gunslinger) hooked up with Speedy (from the Talisman, and Dark house), who would win in a game of chess (assuming they had nothing else going on).
Speedy is more wise, Roland is more goal oriented. I think Speedy would win, but Roland would surprise him with some unorthidox play.
: Randal Flagg, and Pennywise decide to go together and open a restaurant... Who does PR, and who handles hands on management/employees? Why?
Flagg for PR, that guy can sell anything... And would you cause problems if you had to go see "Mr. Pennywise" to straighten things out?
: Louie (Interview with a Vampire) seeks counseling for his 'personal problems'. After being 'cured' of his remorse and guilt with vampire Prozac, is he the new badboy vampire terror? Or does he start up a support group in the local den to help others 'sort out their feelings'.
He would drink Lestat dry, and go on an undead killing spree, untill his prescription ran out... then he would go back to moping.
: Lestat moves to a remote country cabin, only to find the townsfolk, and himself succumbing to the influence of the Tommyknockers... After his dead cat comes back from the pet cemetery. does he shoot it with a home made laser weapon built from an old cd player, or drink it's blood for that "funky wendigo buzz".
Wendigo buzz all the way.
: Salem's lot vampire's vs. Anne Rice's... who is more bad ass?
Kings are more terrifying. Rice's are more human. As for pure power, I think Rice's approach Superman level, While King makes them more demonic.
