'Is this another dream?':
SONG: 'Future Starts Slow' by The Kills
Here's a new promo for True Blood Season 4-- just in time for Friday the 13th. I've screencapped the whole thing--I don't think I missed anything important. One cliffhanger is answered in a way I hadn't even considered but it makes good sense logically. (Spoiler - scroll down)
SPOILER:
The outcome of the Queen Sophie-Anne and Bill Compton fight seems as if there is no fight! Apparently, their scene picks up where we left off at the end of season 3. Before the Queen can get her claws fangs into Bill--he exits at vampire super-speed!
(Brief interjection: I hereby request that anyone of the caliber of E!Online for example, read the book upon which each season is based. This at most will take a couple of hours each year and I guarantee it will help you to not sound like a dumbass when you breathlessly report that Sookie and Eric might be getting together in Season 4!)
So, what else have we got here?
It appears that a cocky, not-yet-afflicted-by-amnesia Eric walks in on a coven of witches.
Someone or thing attacks Pam in Eric's dungeon with what looks like a silver chain and she tosses said person or thing across the room. Go Pam! Downside: The attacker is black, probably a black man--can't imagine Lafayette trying that but it would be so ironic if he again faced consequences in Eric's dungeon!
We are already getting repeats of what we have already seen in previous season 4 teasers without hardly anything added to enhance the scene.
Example: Jason is tied down to a cot, shirtless, wounded and shrieking in pain.
Sam and Luna are kissing.
Sookie finds a shirtless, amnesiac Eric at the side of the road. OK. Something new happens. She hits him in the face (a 'snap out of it' gesture?)
Other stuff to be found in the quick-jumping 30-second trailer tease:
This gal:
...who casting news told us is Alexandra Breckenridge, True Blood's 'Daisy,' a 'member of a wiccan group founded by Marnie.' In this scene, Bill is about to drop fang and seize Daisy by the throat. Yikes!
Bill has a funny hairdo (I think he is 'undercover'). IMO, no matter whose 'team' you are on, you gotta love the mad acting skillz Stephen Moyer brings!
Alcide is growling which annoys Sookie. (Sookie can be such a priss sometimes!)
Me, I get annoyed by extremely fake-looking background scenery. I'd be more than fine with Mr. 12-pack doing his growly thing.
What do y'all think of this tease?
