4). Cant spell her name but Aaleah the singer didnt suit being the Queen, the role should have gone to someone with more acting skills. |
1) Couldn't agree more. Trying to merge two books (totalling over 1100 pages) was a ridiculous thing to do.
2) See above.
3) In the book, Le Stat realises that rock stars live and work at night, so it's the perfect occupation for him. Hence why he chooses modern rock over medieval or whatever music. He also loves the adulation from fans that comes with being a star and allows him to hide in plain sight, as it were. It also gives him plenty of victims to choose from.
4) Aaliya (is that right?) died soon after making the film, so I'm reluctant to speak of ill of the dead. But yeah, she wasn't great, unfortunately. I also thought Stuart Townsend was seriously miscast as Le Stat.
