  • i think you should have used the dragons from Reing of Fire best ovie dragons erver in my opinion and i don't want it to be made as a tv series i want a movie the books are epic

  • cool...

  • I hope they use the first minute as inspiration for the real movie (no, I won't accept that it's gonna be a tv series...) it's amazing! For the second part i'd like something that's more about Laurence and Temeraire though, but of course that is hard for you do make x)

  • i always thought of laurence played by that guy with the eyepatch in the new three musketeers, and that guy in clash of the titans who get turned to stone by medusa with a smile on his face...

  • Nice, I really like Hornblower and I thought of Ioan when I red this book, so, why not? Would be nice, even if he is a little too old as someone said. I hope Peter Jackson will make this movie soon too, has he en´ven started yet?

  • @lukaszgier ooooh,surprise,surprise -.- read the description

  • Fake

  • At 1:08, Napoleon's last words: "That's not FAIR!"

  • Its funny how when it comes to novels about dragons, The inheritance cycle and this series comes to mind, yet no one ever seems to bring up Age of Fire.

  • @Windrake101 so true i got the book but i read bits for my art project at school

  • Peter jackson is working on the first movie :D or so states IMDb :Dlove the series

  • I've considered getting the Temeraire series, because I'm facinated with dragons and the Napoleonic Era.

  • Although it isn´t the real one its just a masterpiece :D its real nice work youre quite good at things like this may you shuold think about making money with it ;D

  • @freez57fr of course it portrays the French in a negative light it is written from the British perspective. Do you even know anything about the napoleonic wars, they actually happened Napoleon was a great general but he still overthrew the French republic and called himself emperor.

  • good, except temeraire don't breath fire

  • I think Eragon is a shit movie but a great book

    i hope temeraire will be a good book and a good movie

    i'm sorry about this formel english but i'm german

  • @masterfong321 You are so right

  • While this is a fan trailer, it is well done. One thing I'll have to berate you on though is your comment about Eragon being a dragon movie. It is not. At all. The book is. The movie is not. Never. Doesn't even deserve the title of movie.

    Now don't get me wrong, I can understand you using the clips for a trailer for Temeraire (or His Majesty's dragon or whatever you want to call it), just don't call Eragon a movie. Ever...

    Here's to Jacksons new masterpiece Temeraire! Cheer!

  • Well i liked it, dut i disagree with u, about who could play Laurence, since he described as a veteran navy captain (ergo) he must be much older than Ioan Gruffud is, what im geting at is that woudent Mel gibson be better as capten Laurence or Russell Crowe.

  • @WattToSay Actually Ioan Gruffudd is just a little older than Laurence is. Laurence is only in his early thirties in the books, which is not that old at all. Ioan Gruffudd is nearly forty. Gibson (50's) and Crowe (mid 40's) are both much too old.

    Just sayin'

  • @ladyariande cool did not know that :P i got the impresion tha he was older :P oh well i just hope they get the dragons right and don't fuck up like they did with Eragon X)

  • @WattToSay im kinda hoping for Russell Crowe myself. and side topic, loved the egg hatching scene from godzilla, lol.

  • @laketown2010 yee XP but hope fully the wont make the egg 3m's tall XD

  • ALL LOOK TO DISCRIPTION, THIS IS A FAKE TRAILER!!!!

    (but i also hope that the real movie comes out!!)

  • Aaaah... Hornblower!

    The funny thing is, that when I read Novik's books, and tried to imagine Laurence, he always had Ioan Gruffud's face :). That's why I'd really like to see him playing this role in the movie.

    Another funny thing is, that it seems that Temeraire movie adaptation will be a series - just like adaptation of Hornblower.

  • I honestly hope that no one makes a movie or tv show.... There have been so many movies made that were based off of books that just ruined it. Eragon and Percy Jackson are perfect examples!!

  • @smileyteen945

    u r right about that, BUT peter jackson did not make those movies ^^

    all peter Jackson's adaptations of books have turned out asome... well most of them ;P

  • .... da es (noch) keinen originaltrailer geben kann muss man hat auf das zurückgreifen was man hat.... ich finde den trailer gelungen und warte auf den ECHTEN TEMERAIRE.... (hatte jetzt keine lust englisch zu tippen, sorry :-)

  • That's a silly trailer!!!!!!

    

  • Ioan Gruffudd for Laurenece!

  • What a bad fanmade trailer of Temeraire.. With scenes of "Eragon" and "Dragonheart".. But okay, Peter Jackson will make a TV-series. But when is the question.^^

  • @LequoiaNahimana

    my thoughts exactly. Jackson will be to busy with Hobbit.

  • .Can anyone tell me when will the movie come to the cinema?,plz!

  • Eragon and Saphira - Laurence and Temerair. i love their books

  • If people are complaining that this isn't Temeraire...well obviously it's not! Read the discription, it tells you that this is a fake trailer! So obviously there are going to be differences.

  • Awesome!!!!!! :DD

  • All I want to say, is - please, do not compare Temeraire to Eragon AT ALL. Why? Because you just nobilitate Paolini (who does not deserve that) by doing so.

  • thank you AhisisKilliaLeroy!!!

  • The Temeraire series is an anti-french piece of shit.

  • @ MrVaGoS97: Maybe in 2012.

  • wow, you could make out the individual films: Dragonheart, Napoleon, Eragon etc :D

  • Hi guys!Can anyone tell me when will the movie come to the cinema?,plz!

  • When I was 10-11 i just looooved eragon. My bestfriend still loves Eragon. Move on, eragon. I mean, helloo! My friend, open your eyes!

    The best book in the world:

    TEMERAIRE!!!!!!

    (of course)

  • i reading the second book of the tetralogy

  • I really like the books. I hope the movie is as good as the books or better! :)

  • I hope they will made a movie...

  • i want this...........i want to see this very badly......on a side note, i need to get the newest book.

  • Wow thats an great trailer.

    Good Job and i hope we can see an real trailer soon.

    I can't wait to see this.

  • The Divine Wind makes what a fire breather can do look like an 8 year old playing with a bic.

  • @Alantiel. I like Gareth as well, Torchwood is one of my favourite shows. I don't think that he can show the emotion the role needs, though. Laurence loves Temeraire very much, and the movie needs an actor who can show that. I don't think Gareth has the face for it, but Peter Davison, who played the 5th Doctor in Doctor Who during the 1980s could definitely pull it off. He looks a lot like how I picture Laurence, and could show the emotion well.

  • I love Ioan, but my choice for Laurence is Gareth David-Lloyd. Torchwood fans know him as Ianto Jones. He just fits so well with my mental image of Laurence.

  • Iskerka can be Saphira... What ever I WANT IT NOWWWWWS!

  • i just read the 6th book and i i want the movie <3

    like a new harry potter serie and i can't wait till the film and the 7th book

  • I've checked the other Temeraire trailers now - I'm sure it's no surprise if I tell you that yours is STILL far and away the best one.

    Even if you have Laurence as that other dude instead of Orlando Bloom. ;-)

  • Kind of stupid to start the trailer with the only battle name thrown in being Waterloo. If we're already at Waterloo dude, then the war between France and the Coalition is over and Napoleon is defintely out of the game.

    I'll assume the trailer 's been made by a Brit, seems the only battle name they remember from the Napoleonic Wars is Waterloo...

  • Love the trailer even if it is fake! I can't wait to see more Temeraire anyway it comes! Adore these stories!

  • how many books are in the series cuz i only have 3

  • Excellent job for a fan-made trailer for a film that is yet to be made. I don't think there were any fire-breathers in the first book but I say with the footage you have, you done a good job. I would like to know, what is the name of the epic music you put in the trailer?

  • UPDATE FOR EVERY FAN!!!

    Peter Jackson denied he'd make a full feature movie out of it,

    THOUGH-----.......He stated that he possibly make a mini-series out of it.

    Btw is the dragon footage from Eragon?

  • napoleanic war + dragons =EPIC

  • @tangyuehao

    Not just EPIC....!

    Its.... AN.... EPIC OF EPIC EPICNESS!!!

    GODDAMNIT I WANT IT, I READ ALLM THE 5 BOOKS(6th isn't out in Holland yet) AND THEY WERE EEEEPIIIIIC!!!

  • welll actually i recently red that peter jackasons movie will be out at 2011. and btw i recently started reading the book.i have 3 books and im stil in the first.i hope i will read them all before 2011:P

  • Where did you get the music from?

  • I haven't read the books, but this (and my weird obsession with the Napoleonic Wars and dragons, haha) makes me want to! Very good trailer! The only thing I would suggest is making the font slightly bigger so that it's easy to read.

  • crap ~! we want temeraire the movie not a fake trailer! anyway thats shit! peter jackson will never make it a movie thought

  • @billoman100 Peter Jackson is making it a tv series, actually.

  • @ladyariande Peter Jackson bought the rights for a film adaptation. But that's already a few years ago. In the meantime let's focus on the Game of Thrones HBO tv series next year and hope Jackson will make the Temeraire series as well.

  • @ladyariande He is! do you have any more info on it? like when it'll come on?

  • @ladyariande fuck tv we wanna see the movie!!

  • @ladyariande Where is it??? =Stefan=

  • @billoman100 -.- BRO if u read on the back of the cover to any of the books u can read and i quote "Peter Jackson, director of Lord of the Rings, has bought the movie rights to the Temeraire series" so yes he is going to make them in to films or a series. :P

  • At 1:00, I'm pretty sure that Fleriosdfsdfsdsd-something-som­ethings were supposed to be red or something. Good trailer though.

  • Kind of a coincidence - Ioan Gruffudd played William Wilberforce in Amazing Grace, the fervent abolitionist whom Laurence's father supports.

  • sind da nicht scenen aus Eragon und Dragonheart drinn?

    wie kann das dann ein trailer eines anderen films sein?

    trotdem haste den trailer gut hin beckommen.

  • I really hope he makes this movie. I love the books so much!

  • epic! =D Love the books! What is the music called? =O

  • Very well done,that verged on the edge of proffesionalism! He'd better make that movie!

  • i think it was great, you did good. if you did more ships you have pirares of the carribien( (sorry for bad english) ) but next time dont have a close to some persons it's make it more fake

  • WOW Good Work

  • First, Ladyariande think you for answering everyones questions, even the belligerent ones.

    Second, ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION PETER?! THIS IS WHAT WE WANT CONSULT WITH THE LADY HERE!

  • This Trailer is very good. I think the original Trailer will not be better. I would like to see Gruffud as Granby.

    Sry for my english, it isn't best.

  • Totally awesome, though I must say when I read the books I pictured some weird mix of Sean Bean (i.e. Sharpe), Russell Crowe (i.e. Master and Commander) with a bit of Hugh Jackman... Game of Thrones (George RR Martin book) TV show is starting next year (with Sean Bean :) ), I want Temeraire now!

  • Brilliant! I SO wish I was a millionaire movie producer, because I want to make the film you have trailed. Having just read the first two books i think you captured the spirit spot on.

  • The trailer is brilliant.

    Great work!

    I think they could take this trailer for the real movie.

    Sorry for my english, i´m from germany.

  • oh wow well done .. Temeraire 4 Ever!!! xD

  • I'm glad to read Peter Jackson is going to try to do a BBC or HBO miniseries rather than cram it all into a feature film or 2

  • Well done! Well done indeed! One question though... does the music score have a name that i can look up here on youtube?

  • @SeniorAnonymous It's called "Freedom Fighters" by Two Steps From Hell. It was also used in the trailer for the new Star Trek movie. =)

  • @ladyariande: oh well i dont watch Star Trek. lol. Star Trek is goofy.

  • @SeniorAnonymous The show, yes, totally dorky. The new movie... WAY awesome!

  • @ladyariande: Even the movie. I'm not a huge Star Trek fan... just being honest.

  • This dragon should crush Toothless for ripping him off

  • Peter is looking to turn it into a TV Series, not a movie. He's concerned a movie will not do well and didn't want the project to be stopped if a movie failed. (Here's hoping we don't get a Merlin or Sword of Truth). -- If anyone could do it it would be Peter. When he loves a book, he really loves it.

  • He cant breathe fire READ THE BOOK!

  • @MistaCH0W Yeah, I KNOW Temeraire couldn't breathe fire, but other dragons could. Don't assume all the dragons are Temeraire.

  • @ladyariande Wat? hows he kill then? wen thers haz firez :c and do they talk in any way?

  • @ladyariande dont remember any land battles either

  • @ladyariande only a specific few breeds could... temeraire is a complete black heavywieght... all of these are either reign of fire... dragonheart and the egg breaking scene was from godzilla!!! lol

  • what film is the land fighting from? looks sweet

  • @anotherollie Actually it's just a dramatized documentary of the Napoleonic wars. I found it on YouTube and it had some good looking clips!

  • Wow, that was amazingly done! Must have taken long enough! I can see gruffudd as laurance but I think there are people that'd fit better.

  • @thewhip666 Thanks! Yeah, it took a while, but it was fun. No doubt there are better actors for the part now. I guess he's a bit old at this point.  Who would you suggest?

  • the thing is ,,, its a nicely made video, But 30% of it is from "Eragon" another 30% from "Dragon heart 1996" and thare is some new stuf i cant place..

  • The Temeraire series is rumored to not be a film by Peter Jackson...BUT a live action high budget T.V series instead ^^

  • @RandomMindz That's fine by me. More screen time to get all the good stuff in!

  • prity nice but is this real? i mean in the bock temeraire dosent breath fier....but in this movie he das....

  • @svensken4 no not real and the fire breathers aren't supposed to be Temeraire. That's why Laurence runs away from the fire! =)

  • @svensken4 okay:P porr that it isent real:(.... but but its prity god made anyway:P (excuse my english i'm frome sweden)

  • Oh my gosh that was great! DragonHeart is my favorite movie, if Temeraire looks even close to as good as Draco looks it will be awesome! And I can't believe I'm not the only one pictures Capt. Laurence as Horatio Hornblower! Great trailer, I hope the movie will be just as good.

  • hoff ma die machen das iwann mal =D=D bitte schnelll, die story ist einfach nur giel

  • temeraire versus eragon... like if you're on temeraire's side!!

  • @StormSays Temeraire/Laurence kick Saphira/Eragon butt! =)

  • @ladyariande

    If you kill Eragon, Saphira's dead...you kill Laurence, YOU'RE dead! XD!!

  • @RandomMindz LOL!

  • @RandomMindz  So true!

  • @RandomMindz So true! Temeraire would kill you in an instant

  • Laurence vs Eragon.....

    And the winner is:....

    LAURENCE!

  • @RandomMindz

    and ur hol f€$@ing cuntry X'D

  • @StormSays Omg. Eragon can NOT even compare.

  • love it,... what's that huge orange dragon that flies over the trees? uggh someone should start a fan-based temeraire roleplay website... AND someone should show this to Jackson and he might get his act together.. ;)

  • @StormSays I think the clip you're talking about is from Dragonheart, which is probably one of my favorite dragon movies ever!

  • wow it sent shivers down my spine ive read the 1st 5 books and i wish that peter jackson will make temeraire cause it is epic beyond preportions

  • @stillstartreking shivers too xD

  • wow it sent shivers down my spine ive read the 1st 5 books and i wish that peter jackson will make temeraire cause it is epic beyond preportions

  • only that laurence is acually like in his 30-40s so a young acter shouldn't really play he ands also i would like to meat sum 1 who could play maximus cosidering his is about 50ish tons

  • Apparently they aren't going to do a movie anymore, but a miniseries instead. Although originally i was a little bummed about it, but when you think about it, thats probably for the best. It would be easy to put more details from the book into the movie, which i think eragon was seriously lacking which made it soooo bad. I really hope all ends well for Temeraire. =D

  • will there be a movie for sure?

  • The trailer is great! I love the books, they are amazing.

    I just have to say that i think that the Eragon movie was.. Crap. Like the book though.

  • i love the books and cant wait for the move...

    this trailer is amazing, it is even more brilliant becaus there are only two movies with dragons til today, dragonheart and eragen...

    this is so awesome...

    i love it

  • i can't wait for the movie!!!!

  • the best (fake ) trailer i've erver seen.

  • You did a wonderful job on this! I hope they make plans for the movie soon.

  • this is a fake i know.... but why would u use so many fire breathers?... we know how scarcely used they are on the books until late when iskierka shows up.

  • Really nice trailer. Hope that the movie will be done soon. What is this for music?

  • The song is called "Freedom Fighters" by Two Steps From Hell. They do trailer music. This song was used in the new Star Trek movie trailer. =)

  • I always imagined Laurence like a Josh Holloway :D. I dunno why ^^

  • Interesting... the only thing is that I think of Laurence as very clean cut since he's the proper British captain and all. Maybe if Holloway shaved and ponytailed his hair... I could definitely see that.

  • @ladyariande

    Yea i meant the hair. Don't matter shaved or not ;d

  • i have all bocks a the idea with the dragons is great. I hope there will be a movie soon.

  • is that a real trailer or have you meke he ?

  • fake trailer =)

  • i love the books and i really really hope they get around to make the movie..if peter jackson does it it will be amazing!

  • Nice! I know I've been hoping this movie will be made as well. It would be incredible!

    Well, I mean they will if Jackson is able to follow the books, and they don't get all Hollywood-ified, I mean. I could just see some stupid movie exec insisting on a hip-hop soundtrack or some stupid thing like that :/

    But anyway, yeah! I want to see the real thing! :)

  • what movie is the one where its like ship battles with cannons and shit and what about the like civil war fighting what movie is that one

  • this actually looks epic !!!

  • I hope tht he makes it...AWESOME book!

    Just finished reading it and ive started ont he jade throne

  • I think that if done well (which I'm counting on Jackson to do) that this could be an amazing film. Let's just hope it comes to fruition.

  • very good really hope this is made into a film but i did read in empire tonite that it might be a TV series

  • Thank you for making this! This makes the wait for TOS and the movie easier! Can't wait to see how they make Temeraire series on the big screen! :)

  • it gave me chills too but it sucks that its not real just exerts from other movies EX: Dragon Heart (1:04) and Eragon (1:54) I am so proud of my self for knowing my movies!!!! Anywho it was Great with a capital G better than i could have done! me reading the 5th book and i believe that they alll deserve to have a movie based on them i will not give up hope they WILL be on the big screen! (i hope...) hehe

  • Voll die verarsche!!

  • Great Job! I really hope the plans don't fall through!

  • This is wonderful, thank you! Here's hoping it's just a foreshadowing of things to come...

  • A good Laurence would be anyone blond, like Laurence in the books. And was that the egg from Godzilla? xD

  • haha, yes that's the Godzilla surviving egg. But it was the only egg that was the right size and it kind of sort of worked... lol

  • Temeraire series are great books, but I dont think it can turn into a good movie. Its rare for good books to become good films. Eragon series are very popular and i like them, but the film Eragon sucks.

  • @PanagosGr33kG134EVER yeh it has always been the same with turning games into movies and books into movies or movies into games it just doesnt work, i think that the movie screws up the view you had of the book, it leaves nothing to imagination i personnally think that that is what gives a book it strength

  • sadly i realy doubt anyone will ever produce this book into a movie unless i turn into a movie producer. but if i did i would defenatly do it. its the best book ever to face earth!

  • omg gave me chills watching the trailer wish it was real!!!!

  • hahah i have read the 3 books here in greece we are waiting for the fourth :(

  • Just started reading the book actually, love it, one of the best books ever.

  • wow! great trailer, love the music, I really hope peter jackson gets around to making this film.

  • Amazing..I love it..I own all the Horatio movies and all the Temeraire books..Never did I think I would see the 2 blended..

    Now if only someone was smart enough to see this and realize Ioan would be perfect for the part of Laurence..We can only hope:)

  • wow.... this is epicO.O

  • Great Frailer! Great music and video choices.

    Wonder what it would look like with slower dragons with full rig and troops hanging.

  • Wow! Really well made - I love how you've blended the different sources together, it looks really convincing.

  • The actor you depict as Laurence in the scenes would actually be perfect, looks-wise.

  • Ioan Gruffudd. I know, wouldn't he? I love him!

  • hi :) i was reading the comment about the book ...

    so i want to buy it coz i love what you say about the book ... thanks

  • I've heard it's to be a TV mini series on HBO

  • That would be.... AMAZING. So long as they have a good budget and can make realistic dragons and battle scenes.
