PLEASE type in GREEN LANTERN THE ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY it is the true story of how GEORGE LUCAS sent off duty CIA agents to threaten my Mother with guns Please check it out thanks
Set was great, cgi was great, casting sucked, scrit writer sucked. I hope they will try to take the book and remake the movie so we can have all 4, because the way they did this Eragon movie there's no way you can do the rest of the series :(
@MrAnimateEverything I think actually they were... mabey not Arya... I think she didn't really fittedt so as I imagended her... Shouldn't she have black hair? Oh, well.... Back to the point.... I imagined Eragon exactly how he is in the movie... Well, but everybody has their own Fantasy and Imagination... :)
Book gud, Movie Not gud choice of director bad I would recommend Peter Jackson or Guillermo del Toro 2 direct the movies 4 the Inheritence Cycle if its going 2 happen
There were three major things that drove me crazy about the movie. One was how lightning bolts gave Saphira a giant 10 second growth spurt. The second was the smoke monster at the end. The third was that stupid song that it seemed like they played during the whole entire movie. It would get slower for sad scenes and faster for action scenes but it was still the same song the whole time.. AHHHHhhhhh... Book >>>>>>>>>>>>movie
Hi guys! I'm a big fan of the fantasy genre,and I was wondering,does the inheritance series any good?I've read Lord of the Rings[Plus the Hobbit] and Harry potter series and I loved them!
So please,tell me if the series worth the money,time,reading and buying!
@fantezie if you enjoyed HP and LOTR you'd probably enjoy the inheritance series. the language can get a bit thick sometimes, in the sense that christopher likes descriptions and big words, so it can get pretentious too. but it's definitely worth reading, and it's not a carbon copy of LOTR, it's something different. and he has some really cool concepts built in there. so yeah, give it a shot. but you probably want to get them from the library as opposed to buying them because they're expensive.
this story (the first one anyway) seems like a mixture of all the best fantasy stories... it's an ok book but i'm almost halfway into it and haven't seen anything particularly original about it yet. (i was even curious as to whether it really WAS a different world than lotr, with all that talk about the elves coming over the see from the WEST) but i suppose i shouldn't be too harsh on it since many of these things have simply become fantasy cliches. it's a decent book, not such a great movie...
but almost every time thew book is better then the movie with harry potter LOTR and eragon so it isn't like this is the only movie not rlly good compared to the book so shut up like it is the only one!
ok i'll admit complaining about people's HAIR COLOR is a little extreme, but you're always going to get specific complaints when it comes to a book-to-movie film. I personally thought the lord of the rings films were excellent, though i was well aware their differences from the books. People need to understand how difficult it is to make a film, especially when you are trying to base it on a book that is obviously longer and more extensive.
@Locke217 yeah i read the book again some times and ompared it to the movie and i sais to myself wow the movie really sucks ass loo LOTR movies were awesome the books were even more awesome why> because the basic plot line but also the little things are included(not all of them)
Right now I'm comparing the book with the movie, so I'm not saying that the movie sucks itself. I'm saying it sucks compared to the book. Forgot to add that.
Eragon was the worst waste of time I've ever spent. NOT because i haven't seen worse flicks, but because I saw it decades ago: It's Star Wars ep. IV:
1. Prinsess steals something from emperor (not seen in film). Dark knight (vader) catches princess. Princess makes artifact go away. Young boy finds artifact, Boy meets old strranger (kenobi/irons), learns the force, boy saves princess in the death star. Kenobi dies. Boy & princess escape to the rebel base and make a desperate stand.
They Stuffed This Movie up so much they can't even try to make a secong film. AND Saphira didnt just grow up in 10 seconds and they left out all the important things to the plot of Eldest.
that stinks. I was gonna see that movie but if its a rip off....
most good magik books end up as movies that arent very good or they are a rip off. take harry potter and the half blood prince for example. they did not even show dumbldores funeral
Give me a shotgun to hunt down the peeps who shooted this movie. It ruined the best book series of my life ... right now i am QQing i can't help it but its a fact that the best things in life get the worst treatment ...
Galbatorix... In the books there was a point dragonriders dont become old? Why does Arya look like a girl, no matter to make her a bit strange mysticke? Saphira looks just like a dirty animal, why didnt they give her at least a shiny skin? I keep reading
The Eragon Series was the best book I had ever read. I was so pissed when I saw the movie. In the book it was like three years long for Saphira to get big, in the movies, ten seconds. I'll stick to the books. By the way, when is the fourth book coming out?
Yeah. Actually, the official reason that they aren't making Eldest is what I told you. Truthfully though, I'm not even sure the director read the second book before making the movie of Eragon. Numerous things he cut from Eragon are massively important to the Eldest plot, and I don't think it would have even been possible to make a second movie that even resembled the book.
Eldest, the sequel, isn't going to be made into a film due to the mediocre box office success and the hatred of the movie by many critics and fans of the book. I guess you're going to have to read the books...You'll find them far superior to the film. In fact, you might not even recognize the first book, since they cut so much crucial plot out of it for the film.
They did that to Twilight too and i wanted to punch a baby after it. I'll try to read the book sometime but I'm a busy girl! Hard to find time to read now a days.
lol, funny how ppl who never read the books love the movie then those who have read want to kill the director.
It is such a disappointment. They could have made such a better movie if they had stuck to the book! I could go on forever about how this movie doesn't measure up to the books. What were they thinking? There were lots of scenes that would have looked really cool in a movie that were completely overlooked. They've also screwed themselves out of making a movie for Eldest since they omitted and altered key plot elements. It could have been such a great movie and it wasn't, very frustrating!
yeah i agree. if the movie hadnt been called eragon, it would've been alright on its own, but the fact its supposed to be based on a book and has nothing to do with the book made it bad. like arya not being an elf, thats like making legolas human. a movie thats based on a book should AT LEAST be loosely based on the book. here its like they said "hey we'll completely change everything just keep the names"
They did have King Hrothgar in the movie, but you can't tell it's him. The dwarves, urgals, and elves looked way too human. The urgals are supposed to be bow-legged creatures with horns. In the movie, they were sumo wrestlers with war paint; no attempt to make them look not human.
lol yeah I kind of laugh compared to the book and the movie, and the movie was terrible. They did not even have time to introduce themselves to each other. Its like HELLO MY NAME IS SAPHIRA YOUR MY RIDER (wow they already meet -_-). Thats like batman came to you and said IM BATMAN.
i have read all the books and well this does not have joed or katrina! arya dident have black hair or help eragon kill durza by breaking the star saph I DIDENT LIKE THE MOVIE AT ALL in my opinion never watch this movie it sucked just read the book its way better and the ra'zac wernt very well done it sucked so i guess brom was well done and saphira as a baby but still it dident convince me if u disagree with me just tell me so i can prove you wrong.
i LOVE the books but this really was an awful movie - the only characters they cast reasonably were eragon, brom and galbatorix - arya didnt even have black hair and saphira looks nowhere near as amazing as she's supposed to! A huge disappointment!
@msqueakybob17 I dont even think those where good. Eragon should've had dark brown hair brom should've looked kinda like gandalf ( in the sence of having a beard and long hair ) and not some middle aged man. Also I allways pictured while reading the books that galbatorix would've been same looking as the commander of gondor (dad of boromir and faramir) from the lotr movie, also the urgals dont even look like anything paolini described them to be.
@msqueakybob17 I know, Saphira in the movie is suppose to have SCALY wings like normal dragons, not feathery. People are suppose to be convinced that she's a dragon, not a dragon bird. Pearsonally, I like the game (PS2) better than the movie (even though I haven' seen the movie, but I saw the clips), because it made alot more sence to me. Sorry if this comment was so long.^^
@msqueakybob17 I think Saphira looks just fine honestly. The storyline the movie follows is horrible, as is the character progression. The movie needs to be a "lord of the Rings" scale movie, maybe not as long but still longer than this movie was...
LOL, I know! How would they develop the second movie. One they could get rid of the director two put Peter Jackson into action. Three make sure he reads the book, force him if you have to. Then wallah! The greatest movie with every detail of the book, but unfortunately we have to put up with this one for the next 10-20 years, lol.
To save themselves they would have to get Peter Jackson to remake the first movie to be able to make the second one. XD I really wish they would remake the first one. With the same music, most of the same actors, and a complete make-over by Pete it would have the potential to be epic! 8D
So i think if you are yelling that the book was much better, and what a shit the movie is (which in my opinion isn't), then you are just trying to be popular and trendy. only attention whores
Im sick, and tired, with those people who ARE YELLING, ohh it was much better in the book.. ofcourse it's better, because you read it, and your fantasy produces every character an outfit, and every event an environment.
It' s a movie, which i'M waiting for.. why??
Because i like the scenes.. and maybe because i was reading the book afterwards i saw the movie.
The movie sucked i mean it TOTALLY SUCKED !!!! I know the book movie isn't supposed to be a mirror of the book but... COME ON!! In the movie Arya wasn't a ELF !!
i mean they cud be bothered to use computers to make crazy ass dragon battle scenes but they wudnt find da time to hire a hot girl and give her pointed ears!!!!
ARRGGHH!!!!! EVEN THINKIN BOUT THIS MOVIE MAKES ME MAD!!!! >:(
What is the hardest to believe is how they managed to convinve that cast of theirs to do this mighty sin of an adaptation. I can only assume none of these actors bothered to read a page of the extravigant books.
The movie is so frustrating, so so frustrating. I wan't to punch the director in their teeth and tear the screenwriter's hair out.
they fuked up so badly. i was so fukin pissed. what idiots made this.fox is fukin wack.y do they have to fuk up eargon, y couldnt they fuck up with twlight or lord of the rings!
The whole movie fucked up the book, Arya wasn't even all that hot. She was supposed to have nice looking hair and she was supposed to fight along side eragon. Brom didn't die because of Durza but of the Raz'ac and the whole few hour wait intel the Urgals got there pissed me off.
Arya is supposed to have BLACK hair!! And she's supposed to be beautiful. In my opinion, it would have been far better if they had just made a film after the style of the Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess cutscenes. In other words, digital. Forget the live actors. They were a big reason why the movie sucked.
Yep that's another thing about arya that was missing and the girl playing as arya wasn't all that hot. Yes if they did it like Legend of Zelda cutscenes then it would probably made the movie watchable. Also if they didn't make eragon out to be a bitch and Arya weak. I would have liked the movie alot better, if they decided to not cut things out. Like the minds thing and the amount of traveling brom and eragon did. The father son type relationship Brom and Eragon had.
it's so funny that they talk about the world of ERAGON and they fuck it up so bad that, even if they wanted to make a sequel they couldn't because of how bad they made the first movie. I am truly angry with the directors and anyone else that read the book and let this shit be put on screen.
I'm making fun of the movie (with my own movie) so I hope they make a second for me to make fun of that one too, I plan on putting them to shame with my $0 budget movie.
Also a kid at my school told me that Paolini sold a creative license to the film makers, basically giving them legal rights to hack the book to pieces(which is what they did) and get away with it. I have not confirmed this but based on the movie I'd that that's so.
"Fox has assembled an amazing team of artists, award-winning actors, and designers working with the latest in special effects technology, and ruined their reputations by sticking them in this shitheap."
The director had better not make another one. One travesty of Eragon was enough. The books are magnificent, don't mock them. You have to strive to create a movie so off base.
i heard they are going to make eldest into a movie but the girl that is playing arya is doing another movie so they have to wait for that one to be over.
I agree Brom who is Jeremy Irons has the best part and so also Murtagh. There discriptions of there pesonaliltys best fits the book, but for Arya and Eragon, naaaa lol
Yeah, Arya isn't supposed to be flirty with Eragon, as she is in the movie. She's supposed to be more stern. Eragon I think was okay, but they could have made him better.
YES!! You are so Right!!! Arya is not supposed to flirt with Eragon!!! As for Eragon's actor.... he may not fit the part intirely, but he is extremely gorgious!!!!
So are they going to make Eragon 2? I've never read the book so the differences don't effect me in the movie but the way the first one ended was like there was going to be another eragon :). I really hope there is going to be another one lol.
it was supposed to be, but christopher felt he wouldn't do the series justice by having just 3 books so he cut up the 3rd book into two parts. otherwise he would've had to cut stuff out and not write the series the way he wanted to so it went from being the inheritance trilogy to the inheritance cycle
I would have still read Brisingr if it was longer. I am so sad. Plus i was quite bored with the book and it felt like it only just began at the end. does anyone else feel like this?
yea i do, but i havent finished it yet. since i already have a comment ill just add to it, i could make a better movie in my apartment complex with my friends then they made here in eragon.
i reckon the movie was pathetic. All the characters were good and all. I actually think they made suitable choices. They may not look exactly like the characters in the book (but i don't agree with Arya's hair, that just killed it) but they looked close enough. I just think that whoever wrote the script SUCKS. it's like he/she didn't even read the book!
The guy who played Brom was good, but come on! Killed buy one of Durza magic tricks, he was killed by a Ruzauc stab or was trying to protect Eragon(if thats how you spell them)
they made arya and eragon blonde... wth is wrong with dark haired people? what are we, evil? boring? only seen the movie once, and i don't think i could stand watching it again... gaaa so angry!
Seriously, I thought the same thing. Especially about Arya. Arya was cool in the book but she's almost pathetic in the movie, and the girl doesn't even fit the description of her in the book.
I thought the book was generic. But it does hold on it's own. I felt the first movie was poorly done. Like they were just trying to ride off the fans the book has. I'm sorry but the movie never stayed on the top of any list. Not when the fans found out it sucked. (Kudos to other viewers.)
Now the movie might have been good.the first and only time i watched it I was too busy tryin to guess what would happen next at some of the most exciting parts but they cut them out. i believe they left out alot very important forshadowing like when eragon had the vision of the two dragons flyin above the ship in the first book. i just hope they can do better on the 2nd movie if they ever get to it cause its taking them a while to even show previews.
I read eragon almost a year before it came out in theater and it was my fav book. the only one ive read more than once. actually i read it 23 times before eldest came out which i thought was just as good. I was epecting the movie to be totally awesome but when i saw it i was absolutely DEVASTATED. i would have never been able to tell the difference between them if the names werent the same. continued on the next one.
eragon is tuelly a great!!!! story i mean just amazinf when i got ahold of the forst book i just could not get my darn eyes off it i read it in 2 days from non stop readin' and dont get me started on the second one and the movie great as it is was nothing but a short summary of the book and not a accurate one at that but still great
Part 2 is called ELDEST. I wish that Eldest will stick with the book. In Eragon they went to far away. The movie wasnt as good as the book. And the fight with Durza, it was on ground. And Durza didnt had a dragon. And there will be a 3th and 4th book that a 3rd dragon (even mayb a 4th 1) will hatch.
They are once the third book comes out. They plan to film back to back with Eldest and the third book. However there is now a fourth book in the works.
(Movie Plans)I've heard it on Wikapedia. It's still unknown if they're going to make the next three films. If they do, they need to release an extended version of Eragon with the missing scenes cut from the film.
(Book 3 and 4) Not long ago, Christopher Paolini the author of "Eragon" and "Eldest" announced he would write a fourth book instead of three. The third book is set to be release on September 23, 2008. Now the Inheritance trilogy is now called the Inheritance cycle.

yeah i agree. if the movie hadnt been called eragon, it would've been alright on its own, but the fact its supposed to be based on a book and has nothing to do with the book made it bad. like arya not being an elf, thats like making legolas human. a movie thats based on a book should AT LEAST be loosely based on the book. here its like they said "hey we'll completely change everything just keep the names"

im glad im not the only one who thought this movie sucks!
one word: LAZY!!!!
no dwarves, razac and urgals look gay and ARYA IS FRIENDLY WTF?!?!?!?!
dawnfresh 2 years ago 5
They did have King Hrothgar in the movie, but you can't tell it's him. The dwarves, urgals, and elves looked way too human. The urgals are supposed to be bow-legged creatures with horns. In the movie, they were sumo wrestlers with war paint; no attempt to make them look not human.

lol yeah I kind of laugh compared to the book and the movie, and the movie was terrible. They did not even have time to introduce themselves to each other. Its like HELLO MY NAME IS SAPHIRA YOUR MY RIDER (wow they already meet -_-). Thats like batman came to you and said IM BATMAN.

i have read all the books and well this does not have joed or katrina! arya dident have black hair or help eragon kill durza by breaking the star saph I DIDENT LIKE THE MOVIE AT ALL in my opinion never watch this movie it sucked just read the book its way better and the ra'zac wernt very well done it sucked so i guess brom was well done and saphira as a baby but still it dident convince me if u disagree with me just tell me so i can prove you wrong.
laceyj12 2 years ago 4
i LOVE the books but this really was an awful movie - the only characters they cast reasonably were eragon, brom and galbatorix - arya didnt even have black hair and saphira looks nowhere near as amazing as she's supposed to! A huge disappointment!

@msqueakybob17 I dont even think those where good. Eragon should've had dark brown hair brom should've looked kinda like gandalf ( in the sence of having a beard and long hair ) and not some middle aged man. Also I allways pictured while reading the books that galbatorix would've been same looking as the commander of gondor (dad of boromir and faramir) from the lotr movie, also the urgals dont even look like anything paolini described them to be.

@msqueakybob17 I know, Saphira in the movie is suppose to have SCALY wings like normal dragons, not feathery. People are suppose to be convinced that she's a dragon, not a dragon bird. Pearsonally, I like the game (PS2) better than the movie (even though I haven' seen the movie, but I saw the clips), because it made alot more sence to me. Sorry if this comment was so long.^^

@msqueakybob17 I think Saphira looks just fine honestly. The storyline the movie follows is horrible, as is the character progression. The movie needs to be a "lord of the Rings" scale movie, maybe not as long but still longer than this movie was...

LOL, I know! How would they develop the second movie. One they could get rid of the director two put Peter Jackson into action. Three make sure he reads the book, force him if you have to. Then wallah! The greatest movie with every detail of the book, but unfortunately we have to put up with this one for the next 10-20 years, lol.
DragonWhisper88 2 years ago 4
To save themselves they would have to get Peter Jackson to remake the first movie to be able to make the second one. XD I really wish they would remake the first one. With the same music, most of the same actors, and a complete make-over by Pete it would have the potential to be epic! 8D

What is the hardest to believe is how they managed to convinve that cast of theirs to do this mighty sin of an adaptation. I can only assume none of these actors bothered to read a page of the extravigant books.
The movie is so frustrating, so so frustrating. I wan't to punch the director in their teeth and tear the screenwriter's hair out.

The whole movie fucked up the book, Arya wasn't even all that hot. She was supposed to have nice looking hair and she was supposed to fight along side eragon. Brom didn't die because of Durza but of the Raz'ac and the whole few hour wait intel the Urgals got there pissed me off.

Arya is supposed to have BLACK hair!! And she's supposed to be beautiful. In my opinion, it would have been far better if they had just made a film after the style of the Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess cutscenes. In other words, digital. Forget the live actors. They were a big reason why the movie sucked.
FaroresChosenOne 3 years ago
Yep that's another thing about arya that was missing and the girl playing as arya wasn't all that hot. Yes if they did it like Legend of Zelda cutscenes then it would probably made the movie watchable. Also if they didn't make eragon out to be a bitch and Arya weak. I would have liked the movie alot better, if they decided to not cut things out. Like the minds thing and the amount of traveling brom and eragon did. The father son type relationship Brom and Eragon had.

it's so funny that they talk about the world of ERAGON and they fuck it up so bad that, even if they wanted to make a sequel they couldn't because of how bad they made the first movie. I am truly angry with the directors and anyone else that read the book and let this shit be put on screen.
ss4donnie 3 years ago 5
I'm making fun of the movie (with my own movie) so I hope they make a second for me to make fun of that one too, I plan on putting them to shame with my $0 budget movie.
Also a kid at my school told me that Paolini sold a creative license to the film makers, basically giving them legal rights to hack the book to pieces(which is what they did) and get away with it. I have not confirmed this but based on the movie I'd that that's so.

it was supposed to be, but christopher felt he wouldn't do the series justice by having just 3 books so he cut up the 3rd book into two parts. otherwise he would've had to cut stuff out and not write the series the way he wanted to so it went from being the inheritance trilogy to the inheritance cycle

i reckon the movie was pathetic. All the characters were good and all. I actually think they made suitable choices. They may not look exactly like the characters in the book (but i don't agree with Arya's hair, that just killed it) but they looked close enough. I just think that whoever wrote the script SUCKS. it's like he/she didn't even read the book!

Now the movie might have been good.the first and only time i watched it I was too busy tryin to guess what would happen next at some of the most exciting parts but they cut them out. i believe they left out alot very important forshadowing like when eragon had the vision of the two dragons flyin above the ship in the first book. i just hope they can do better on the 2nd movie if they ever get to it cause its taking them a while to even show previews.

I read eragon almost a year before it came out in theater and it was my fav book. the only one ive read more than once. actually i read it 23 times before eldest came out which i thought was just as good. I was epecting the movie to be totally awesome but when i saw it i was absolutely DEVASTATED. i would have never been able to tell the difference between them if the names werent the same. continued on the next one.

Part 2 is called ELDEST. I wish that Eldest will stick with the book. In Eragon they went to far away. The movie wasnt as good as the book. And the fight with Durza, it was on ground. And Durza didnt had a dragon. And there will be a 3th and 4th book that a 3rd dragon (even mayb a 4th 1) will hatch.

(Book 3 and 4) Not long ago, Christopher Paolini the author of "Eragon" and "Eldest" announced he would write a fourth book instead of three. The third book is set to be release on September 23, 2008. Now the Inheritance trilogy is now called the Inheritance cycle.
