Eragon in 2 minutes!

I summarized Eragon in 2 minutes presented with images from star wars. Make what you will of the comparison. This is done for fun and comedic effect.

Epic doesn't mean cool as much as the internet abuses the word. "Epic" refers to a type of majestic poetry of vast scope where a hero overcomes many challenges. So if you think it is a good story it might be epic, if not, it isn't. (It isn't majestic he isn't heroic.) Indirectly, "epic" does connect to quality. No one should think a 4 year olds sloppy crayon drawing of a dragon is epic. It might be cute and a feeble attempt worthy of encouragement but not a work of art to be hung in a museum.

Paolini's epicness made up in part for all these flaws, but the last book wasn't even epic. Fuck. So much potential fucking unexplored.

[distinctvagueness]

@OutswingingYorker If by epicness, you mean generic fantasy cliches and horrible storytelling, then yes. He's always taken the easy way out when it comes to potential, and frankly, I could have done with a lot less "exploring".

...wow. Not until now do I truly realize how much of the plot is (seemingly) copied from Star Wars and slapped into a high fantasy setting called Eragon. It doesn't really make me enjoy the story less, but it makes my respect for Poalini drop a good bit. Hopefully he's learned his lesson by now, and the 4th book will be very original and well written. Hopefully.

[distinctvagueness]

@OldMac89 Yeah hopefully. The 2nd and 3rd book weren't so similar, but rambling and boring. Although now that I think about it book 2 was Eragon going to be trained in magic for most of the book while a second tale involved a young couple in a revolution... I expect book 4 to be very average by my standards. I think he should be old enough to avoid as many cliches plot holes and other errors but I doubt the 4th book can suddenly be some masterpiece, especially weighed down by whats come so far.

[OutswingingYorker]

@RivalNitestrike Possibly. The series is crap quality, I know. But it was epic.

[RivalNitestrike]

@OutswingingYorker Epic. I don't think it means what you think it means.

[OutswingingYorker]

@distinctvagueness dude, that is besides the point. Correct, but besides the point. Dragons, battles etc ARE epic. Epic does not however imply quality.

Eldest= luke training in Dagooba

Wow. Nice man.

Who's pumped for Inheritance? I think it comes out in about 2 days 8 hrs and 4 minutes...
