baby saphira was adorable.

i totally agree that the movie was rushed and essential plotlines/character stories in the book were left out of the movie.
 
does the movie have a PG rating? i was talking about it with some people today. That might have something to do with so much being different than the book and the whole rushed feeling. Maybe if it followed the book more it would've gotten a PG-13 rating and the studio didn't want 1 for some reason. Although i've been hearing some scenes in it are more PG-13 than PG..so maybe this makes no sense.....but i kinda want it to be true..cuz then they could have like a director's cut dvd with all the edited stuff in lol
 
Eragon and Eldest are now on my reading list..and I don't wanna read the spoiler :lol: but who is Murtaugh again?
 
I saw their journey as being kind of LOTR-ish. You know, like getting Eragon and Saphira to the mountains to keep them safe - get Frodo to Mordor to destroy the ring. Brom dying reminded me of Gandalf, though I don't know if Brom will be reborn.

But the film itself was filmed sort of how LOTR was filmed. :lol:

Guess it's true what they say - we are influenced by what we watch and read. :D
 
lol Eldest is so long. I remember i got through Eragon really fast then i got to Eldest and it took awhile. i do love both though. The 3rd and final 1 should be out in a few months, i think
 
I didn't include the marketing in my analysis. Just the ticket sales. But yes, you're right, they would have to make triple the amount but that includes the merchandising etc. However, you know, I am surprised there are not like statues of Saphira on sale or plush Saphira. :lol:
 
I like the song. It's certainly not much like what I think of her as doing. I think she has grown up a bit. Still its a good effort at a ballard and I think kind of suits the movie.
 
Anyone seen this movie yet? Seems like everyone is talking about the trailer and no one seems to have seen it. I went to see it today, despite the fact that the fans of the book have hated it.

I have read the book. Though I have to say, if you are a HUGE fan of the book, it will be very hard for you to love the movie. Alot has been cut out and the entire movie is quite rushed.

Half the time I thought I was watching Eragon thinking 1) the name sounds like Aragorn, 2) Shade looks like Wormtongue from LOTR and 3) The CGI looks like Weta's work. :lol:

The dragon was amazing though, really amazing. I love baby Saphira!!! The eyes are to die for!
 
that's what I was wondering. The twins produced some of my fav scenes in the book and I don't see how Eldest is going to work with so much of Eragon being chopped out.
 
IMDB has the trailer up on the eragon page. I don't have the exact link.

and i just noticed while watching it, they gave saphira feathered wings...@ least thats what it looks like
 
Sorry I can't remember the characters names..bad memory and I have yet to read the books :(
 
jayta :lmao: it's Victoria

I think when Angela was reading his fortune and she got to the part about Eragon being betrayed it became obvious

yea, in Eldest it's revealed.
 
i watched the movie finally online....i'm a bad bad person:(..but i'm buying the dvd when it comes out so the studio will still get money from me lol


i liked it, as long as i kept the book out of my head while watching. Saphira was awesome
