Eragon (spoiler if not read Eldest)

[lydia2693]

While looking up pictures from the movie "Eragon", I came across many posters of Ed Speleers (Eragon) holding the zarrok, but if you read the book
then you will know that the Zarrok has a ruby on the handle and a red blade.
But in the pictures it shows the Zarrok with a saphire in the handle and a
red blade. which i think is stupid, becuase a rider's sword is suposed to match their dragon and who has a red and blue dragon? and since the zarrok isn't even eragon's but morzen's, then it should be a ruby like morzan's dragon.it ruins Eldest and the last book.in Eldest eragon looses the zarrok to murtag. and since murtag has a red dragon, it fits perfectly, but since eragon
lost the sword then i predict that he will dig up the sword under the mensoa
tree and it will be brom's old sword, which has a saphire handle and blue blade. but if you read the two books and look up some of the pictures on the internet with the zarrok, then you would understand what i am talking about.
but why are they doing it that way?:confused: :mad: :confused:

[brigulon13]

Not cool man.

[lydia2693]

i know, it stinks. why do think they are doing it that way?
it is just not wrong, it look stupid too.

[Nevera111]

4 words. NOT A BIG DEAL, worry about other things. The fact the blade is red is enough, no one cares about the color of the stone in the blade. I'd be more worried if it was like a silver blade. Be happy, Saphira looks great among other things. I seriously thought they were going to cut out angela, but they didn't so be happy! My gosh stop picking away at every little detail that they miss.

[spinin]

Nevera111, I couldn't have said it better myself. That's like being nitpicky about continuity. Yeah, it is silly, but it is a natural part of movies. Who cares about the ruby. Just hope that the bulk of the story is intact.

[aacc]

lyndia2693 made three hard to make spelling mistakes. It's zar'roc not Zarrok. It's Morzan not Morzen. It's Menoa not Mensoa. It's no big deal if there is a wrong coloured stone on his sword, no one will notice it unless they like pause the movie and study it, but yes they should have paid more attention to detail.

[brigulon13]

This movie looks bad. I've not read the books(I've heard they are pretty bad and sophmoric also). I think it looks as though it will try to hard. I think this will fall under the Dragon curse of Hollywood. If there is a Dragon in it, it will fail. There seems to be to much going on in the trailer. I've also read nothing but complaints on how things are wrong and not as they should be. It will be on my list of what not to see this holiday. By this time next week it will be just a bad memory. It's gonna be crushed by Ben Stiller's new movie. Taking bets now.

[aacc]

I think that they should have stuck to the descriptions in the book for the characters in a few sections. Like have Arya with black not red hair and Eragon with brown not blonde hair. I've heard that the animation for Sphira is really good. I reall love the song "Keep Holding On" by Avril Lavigne from its soundtrack as well. I'm really looking froward to seeing it at the movies. I'm sure it will be really good. You should go see it too. They will make a movie of eldest if this one goes well at the box office and you can't have the movie finishing at the first one.

[brigulon13]

Just as predicted by your's truly. This movie is getting panned hardcore. I am so glad I didn't see this garbage. I almost went though. My kids were pushing me hard. We saw Charlotte's Web instead. That is a movie that I myself didn't enjoy but thought it stayed very true to the source and expanded on it in much better ways(my kids liked it). Now, who else is glad we won't be seeing any more about Eragon in the future? No more commercials, Yay! Looks as though sequel hopes are quashed. Oh well. There is always direct to video and Sci Fi(Dungeons and Dragons). The Dragon movie curse lives on! Long live the curse.

[cool2morrow]

are u guys kidding me the movie was AWFUL, and is only made worse by the fact that the books were done so well. to all those that have read the books, i say this DO NOT see this movie it will only leave u in pain. yes there are errors and ofcourse cut downs because they had 2 make it a movie and i can accept that...... to a degree. this is a horrid depiction of a decent fantasy novel. The changes were drastic and uncalled for, for example, yes the ruby was not in the pommel but i would be more interested in things like WHY has saphira got scales instead of membrane on her wings! they are supposed to b punctured and vulnerable, why is durza able to fight ontop of whateva the hell that thing was, why did eragon not get the important debilitating wound on his back, why did the whole blessing not take place, why did the the characters not match their descriptions, why did they spend no time on roran and say he fled in fear of conscription.... i mean he is an important part of the sequel, why did arya get involved with eragon.... why did they bad guys try to kill him from the start instead of trying to seduce him.... AND WHY THE *&^% DID BROM KILL THE AZ'RAC THAT WAS SOOOOO WRONG ......THE LIST GOES ON the only good thing about this movie is it got more people reading the book. also i no u will all say "well they had to condense it" well to that i say yes they did but compare it 2 a similarly sized book... um oi dont now what about lotr 1st book about same size yet that got condensed into what 3 and a half hours this only lasted 1 and a half I AM COMPLETELY DISSAPOINTED i am only ceasing this reply because i have made myself all the more frustrated HATE MAIL WILL B SENT 2 THE STORY EDITORS I ASSURE U

[brigulon13]

Because... there will be no more movies after this crap. So they took liberties with the story to try to make something outta the crap they already had filmed. Don't see this movie. Voice your disgust. Then, and only then can we get Hollywood to stop making films for 14 year olds and make movies for everyone else.

[aacc]

I saw the movie and was really disappointed. I love the books but the movie just didn't do it justice. they cut out and changed too many parts. Some are even really crucial to the next books/movies. If you haven't read the book you'll like it probably since all the people I know that haven't said it was pretty good, its jsut if you've read it you'll spend the entire movie thinking "what?", " oh why did they do that?", "what the hell?" and "why didn't they include that bit?". You should still see it though, it's just not as good as I expected.

[Special_K.]

This is so rediculous... That was a very good movie and u wudnt know because u havnt seen it... so dont be a butt

Exactly... stop nagging... i mean really yall r being stupid... they did fine... even though they didnt follow every detail of the movie doesnt mean u can rag on 'em... i mean really... come on yall

[Special_K.]

If u havn't seen the movie then u just need to shut up... u dont know what ur talkin bout

[brigulon13]

Special K, what is your favorite movie? Probably something with a Wayan or a pro-wrestler, right?

I was saying that Hollywood ruined another promising movie from book adaptation. Like they do with comic books daily. Good Example: Alex Rider in Stormbreaker. I was waiting for this one to be released(my son reads all the books) at the theater and quess what I rented yesterday? The Dragon curse does live. Look at what's happening to The Hobbit(there is a dragon in the story) as proof that dragon movies are trouble and always will be. All I'm saying is that Hollywood needs to create more original properties. This book phase is just that, a phase. There was the action sports phase, the Japan horror phase, now it's kids book to teenager movie phase. Next phase: Kids toys to event movie phase.

[johnothans13]

Come on people, the movie wasn't bad at all, I thought it was brilliant and I really hope they make the triolgy. I'm sick to death of people making fun of it and complaining! It's really sad that people are, you should be glad they have made the film. I love the film, the books, they are ace! I think this is the first EVER good comment they'll be! Just give it a chance people. :)

[paulina_0228]

I wanted to see it, but then bad comments and reviews kill it for me. Maybe I'll watch it someday on DVD.:(

[Nevera111]

I thought the movie was alot like the book, seeing as both the book and the movie SUCKED. I'll admit when I was thirteen and thought Dragons made anything cool i ate up Eragon, but now when I have some sort of knowledge on how the English language works I tried rereading Eragon and had to put it down, it was awful for so many reasons. Just like the movie!

[smart_gurl333]

Well, I thought it was a rather good movie overall. The casting and acting was good. Most of the cuts they made I thought were effective. For instance Arya's hair being light instead of dark veered away from Lord of the Rings, The way Brom died made sense and was quite nice. The cuts I'm worried about are the ones that tie in to Eldest. They left the movie completely inconclusive and without the two sequels I think it will be a rip-off. The cuts like Arya going to Ellesmera would be easier to fix in the movie script but the way Roran left and the absense of Elva will be hard to write around. I think alot of people are really nitpicking and should be more concerned with the bigger issues like how they could possibly make a sequel with the cuts they made and why in the world weren't they thinking about that when they scripted Eragon with the intention of possibly making a seuel (which is implied by the general unconclusiveness of the movie in genereal).
As far as the previous post; yes Eragon is getting bad reviews. However I think that the movie is meant for teenage fantasy enthusiants, not cynical adult critics. More than likely they haven't read the book, don't like fantasy and thought the movie was juvenille. They have a right to that opinion and others have a right to theirs. I simply think that the movie reviews would be more effective if the were criticized by a group that is more likely to actually GO to the movie of their own free will instead of people biased against it. Besides, since when has anyone seen a good review on a movie that wasn't some inspirational drama or thriller of some sort? It's because those movies cater to critics, adult, cynical critics! Not the teens who actually intend to see Eragon. My advice, don't take critics into account, if you think you might like it, go to the movie or rent it when it comes out or whatever, otherwise, no one is making you watch it and noone wants to hear you complain about a movie you haven't seen based on a book you haven't read.

[smart_gurl333]

Because... there will be no more movies after this crap. So they took liberties with the story to try to make something outta the crap they already had filmed. Don't see this movie. Voice your disgust. Then, and only then can we get Hollywood to stop making films for 14 year olds and make movies for everyone else.

I have to say you are completely inconsiderate! Do u have a life? You come in here whining about a movie you haven't seen based on a book you haven't read and now you think you have the right to say that Hollywood should stop making movies for teenagers! Who exactly do u think you are, if you don't want to see a movie catering to teenagers nobody cares, watch some movie about old celebrities that are already dead or whatever it is you watch, but I'm gonna see Eragon because I want to and you don't seem to understand that there ARE teens that ARE going to see it and some of them will probably even like it! So shut your mouth and go on a different forum!

[smart_gurl333]

Look at what's happening to The Hobbit(there is a dragon in the story) as proof that dragon movies are trouble and always will be. All I'm saying is that Hollywood needs to create more original properties. This book phase is just that, a phase. There was the action sports phase, the Japan horror phase, now it's kids book to teenager movie phase. Next phase: Kids toys to event movie phase.

Dragon movies are trouble? What are you talking about? Haven't you noticed that people have been making movie from book adaptations for a long time and a lot of them have gotten great reviews, even Oscars (Oliver!, The Notebook, The Harry Potter movies, the list is endless). Just because a few teenage book to movie adaptations have been made of late doesn't mean that such movies are a phase! Get a life!

-K, if you didn't ike the book then why did you see the movie and why don't you have anything better to do then whine about a movie that I can only assume you expected to suck?

[SoraK]

o.k everyone, STOP BITCHING AROUND!!

thank you..

XD

o.k, so yes The book and the movie ARE different, and I acctually though it was better off that way because see it this way, it'll be soooooo boring to read the book.. and then? allllll the exact same things happend in the movie o_o I mean I WOULD get bored, (even though I prefer the books better XD) but still the movie ROCKED!

[ravinshi6]

i am abit torn over my thoughts about the movie. i loved the book thought it was well written for such a young author.i was disappointed in the movie because of the fact being that they left out sooo many key facts. they got the character discriptions totally wrong,roran's reasons for leaving were WAY off!! they never mentioned Katrina.She plays a big part in book two.so if they do make a sequal how are they going to fit that in.they left out the fact of the growing bond process of eragon and brom.the real way that eragon defeated durza was no where in the movie.the dwarfs were never brought into it.And most important was that they left out the twins.and the fact being that murtagh was suppossedly dead at the end of the book.the last conversation between eragon and arya was wrong.he had that conversation with nassuada not arya.in book two eragon and arya leave together.these are all major things that SHOULD have been in the movie.i believe the reason for the movie being done so poorly was due to the possible fact of the director and the author not having much say over what was to be put it and what was to be left out.for those who have read the book save your money.for you will be very disappointed in the movie.for those who have not read the book it is a great film.it was well done but it could have been a longer film.:o :confused:

[fred2hc@yahoo.com]

More Jeremy Irons, but i guess the studios wasnt sure if the movie would gross enough for a sequal. I watched the movie before i read the book and i see everyones gripe. i havnt read Eldest yet but soon. Hopefully they do a better if they make a sequal and does anybody know when the third book is coming out?

[Bridget]

While looking up pictures from the movie "Eragon", I came across many posters of Ed Speleers (Eragon) holding the zarrok, but if you read the book

but why are they doing it that way?:confused: :mad: :confused:
I am responding to Lydia2693 on the sword under the Menoa tree...

The sword under the tree COULD be Brom's sword, but it could also be the first rider, Eragon's, sword. What color was Brom's dragon anyway???

[Bridget]

I completely agree with smart gurl333!

[Velsing]

Would you people stop with the little things, yes they are wrong but overall it is a good movie, and By the way watch the battle very, very closly and Eragon does get the cut by Durza on his back, they just don't make a big deal about it!

[RavensCave]

What some people fail to realize is that Christopher would have to agree with what they put into/take out of the movie. It's not like they went behind the back of the author, if he's ok with it, then the people who have yet to see the movie should be as well.

I personally loved both the books and the movie

[opie5550]

dude it was a good yes the movie left out some "important" stuff.like how long it took the little dragon to grow and the traders and alot more.dont be so picky ok :cool: :D :cool:

[jethrotull]

I hate what they have done with the movie too, but we also have to realize that Eragon is a long book and they couldn't have possibly fit every little detail into the movie without it being extremely long. What they probably should have done before making the movie, was to read the book.

[phaeye]

The movie wasn't great, but it wasn't that bad either. I love the actors, they did a great job and it didn't bother me that they didn't looked exactely like the characters in the book. I don't really like Ed Speelers, Im not his biggest fan. But Garrett Hedlund was perfect for Murtagh, I completely adore Murtagh! He is the best character ever. :D What a shame that they showed so little of him in the movie! I thought they made it look like he was just a stranger who brought Eragon to the Varden. While in the book he is a really good friend for Eragon. And what's up with his scar???It wasn't a big scar on his back, but a tiny one on his arm. the scar is supposed to seem painful and you should really have an "Oh MY GOD"-moment when he reveals the scar. But now I just looked like a tatoo. Atleast he was mysterious enough (and hot enough) :p I know, I'm a little obsessed with Murtagh, sorry for that. And I'm sorry if my english isn't so good (I'm from Belgium)Anyway, I really loved the book! And I think that you guys could better talk about the good things of the book and movie (and Murtagh;) )

[theater101]

eragon was the must amazing movie i have ever seen the book was only so long becuz they took like five pages to describe one person i guess that you may not be indterested in magical movies like harry poter the movie is different than the book but it still has the same consept the same with eragon what you need to do is consider the fact that no movie is going to be exactly the same as the book happy now

[mentaliser]

The movie worked fine for me though yeah.. it lacked the Harry Potter pace but still it was worth watching. Cant wait for its release. I mean the potter one.

[The_Actress]

For the enormity of the book, the movie took well enough care of the plotline, though some important details were left out. The author should have sat in on the production process. But first off, it's Za'roc and Morzan. I hope they make a second one, there is always room for improvement. Does anyone else think that a vomiting chicken could have played a better Galbatorix than John Malcovich?

[giovanni]

I'm not really into reading and Eldest was so long and so thick in the bookshops that i decided not to read it, a friend of mine went to see Eragon and he said it was bad, so I didn't bother to go see it either.

[Rahen]

"What they probably should have done before making the movie, was to read the book".
I completely agree. I feel they've left out some important things, that should have been obviously included.

"Does anyone else think that a vomiting chicken could have played a better Galbatorix than John Malcovich?"
YES! Movie Galbatorix did not seem very evil or threatening. I just thought he seemed like an average pissed off guy in dark fancy clothes. He lacked a certain villainy.

I also felt it worth mentioning that the people who are whining about people whining are...pretty hyprocritically hilarious.

I would also like to put forth that I am a teenager who loves fantasy and not an adult critic and I agree with much of the criticism. I think they made Eragon into something ordinary and left out much of what made it an interesting story or unique. I also found Eragon kinda stupid and irritating, the character not the book/movie, he wasn't just foolish, he had no brains. I wish they had made him slightly more intelligent and given him better reasoning skills, even if he was still very foolish they could him some dimension.

I was also sad with how small a role Murtagh had and feel that they left out almost everything pertinant to the next book. And as a nitpicky person I thought that having a blue jewel and a red sword was a bad choice. I would dislike it purely for aestheticc reasons but I also saw no reason for them to change it to blue. It's an ugly color combination and there's no reason for it.

The movie was dissappointing as I hoped they would improve the book by picking up the pace and even while leaving out some cool stuff they could have focused on much of what made it interesting and unique and glazed over much of the cliches of sci-fi and fantasy. Instead I felt that they glazed over the intricacies of the book and made it an average fantasy quest movie that emulated Lord of the Rings a lot.

[simonsays]

Nevera111, I couldn't have said it better myself. That's like being nitpicky about continuity. Yeah, it is silly, but it is a natural part of movies. Who cares about the ruby. Just hope that the bulk of the story is intact.

I agree with the both of you. Have you ever known any movie to 100% depict the book. I have not and think that I never will. A few minor issues is not what makes or breaks the movie.

[ttrraavvis11]

The movie was the worst ever, unless you haven't read the book. If you have read the book save your money.

[Rulebreaker]

I was going to read the book, but it was just too long. I saw the movie and it didn't keep my interest, that's for sure!

[Fawkes07]

The fact that they left so much out of the movie looks bad enough... the fact they messed the things that they did put in there looks worse... they could have made some things so much better in that movie and I was really hoping that the twins were gonna be be in it, nut they weren't and they play a somewhat-big part in book 2 and the movie makers screwed that all up. The sword and Arya's ears(they're rounded for goodness sake:mad: ) are proof that the movie makers didnt pay enough attention to some things that are in the book.(How are people supposed to know that Arya is an elf if her ears are rounded like everone elses. AND they told that she was the princess of Elesmera :eek: and Eragon is not supposed to find that out til he actually gets to Du Weldenvarden.) They could have got a better director... Like the one that did The Lord of the Rings... Sorry, rant over....:)

[Fawkes07]

I was going to read the book, but it was just too long. I saw the movie and it didn't keep my interest, that's for sure!

The movie is not that good... The books are sooo much better than any book I ever read... and I have read alot of books...:D

[kalo1101]

See I watched the movie and i'm like O not cool that movie kinda sorta sucked so i'm like well ok so if the movie sucked then the book was awesome so i just finished the book like 20 mins ago and it rocked the creators of the movie picked that story line to the living core of itself it was almost nothing like the book at all at least Harry Potter was alot more like the books i meen come one makes no sence and now if they make a 2nd movie then it wont work be cause of the person at the end in the thoughts of Eragon(not gonna mention names for people who havnet read it)!!

[Anina]

Ok i haven't read the book, or saw the movie until my english class. Its the end of the year and we arent doing anything and some of the guys who read eragon and eldest asked the teacher to make us watch the movie. On the first day we only got to the part were the dragon started to fly, so i decided to watch the movie on my own time(hell my class is so noisy you cant hear anything over what they sat) any way i watched the movie and i love it(i havent read the book) the next day my class watched the rest and the guys that read the book were almost crying by the end because some of there favourite characters were cut. So to those who like fantasy watch the mvoie first then read the book because i buy the book s this weekend and i can be at ease because i already watched the movie and wasn't able to be desapionted because i never read the book. By the way that guy that played eragon signed a contract for another two movies coming in spring 2009:o :o :o :o :o

[eldest123]

broms dragon was also blue, and it was also called sapphire (or however its spelled) The first Eragon's sword is white because his dragon is white so i doubt it will be the first Eragon's sword

[tinker_toes]

While looking up pictures from the movie "Eragon", I came across many posters of Ed Speleers (Eragon) holding the zarrok, but if you read the book
then you will know that the Zarrok has a ruby on the handle and a red blade.
But in the pictures it shows the Zarrok with a saphire in the handle and a

lost the sword then i predict that he will dig up the sword under the mensoa
tree and it will be brom's old sword, which has a saphire handle and blue blade. but if you read the two books and look up some of the pictures on the internet with the zarrok, then you would understand what i am talking about.
but why are they doing it that way?:confused: :mad: :confused:
i have to kinda agree with lydia2693, the directors messed up the whole story. eragon is a great book, no its amazing! and the directors ruened it. they took a lot of inportant stuff out of that should have been in the movie but were not and becuase of that the book and the movie don't match up.The movie made the book sound retard when its not. its a really good book and they messed it up. if they make a eldest i hope its not another disopointment but also i hope that they don't bother making eldest becuase they will proply mess that eldest up more than eragon.

[yelrah]

well actually if you have read the second eragon book then you will know that
(do not highlight next part if you have not read the book)eragon is Morzas son and eragon is murtaghs full blooded brother because they share their mother and father but everything is off task in the movie compared to the books so every film maker somehow ruins the movie by cutting out vital parts and lying about how characters died but either way

[brigulon13]

Just wanna say Dragon movies are cursed. Still. "Dragon Wars" anybody?
And for the comments about books into movies... Duh! 50% or more of the movies made to this day are based on books of some sort. My comment refers to the modern books for teens and pre-teens. They make horrible movies usually due to dumbed-down storylines for primitive minds. "Bridge To Turdibitchia" is a great example. As is "Seeker". All I'm sayin'.

Though I have not seen the movie I have heard much. I have played the game " not worth the effort in making it only nine or ten levels" and presume that it follows the movie storyline. This movie I hoped they would have very accurate depictions of the characters they did not, even the urgals didn't meet my expectations. In the game the first magic word used by Eragon is Risa but the Book states it was Brisingr when he shoots the urgal in the head with an arrow while stuck in a dead end ally. If it is true about Brom killing the Ra'zac, then how will the next movie be made? It is this that makes Roran leave his home with everyone and helps in the battle of the book Eldest.
As for the Sword taken from Eragon it is most probable that it is Brom sword under the Menoa tree. However I would like to know every one thinks the Vault of Souls has or is because this is the other part of the were-cat's prophecy.

4 words. NOT A BIG DEAL, worry about other things. The fact the blade is red is enough, no one cares about the color of the stone in the blade. I'd be more worried if it was like a silver blade. Be happy, Saphira looks great among other things. I seriously thought they were going to cut out angela, but they didn't so be happy! My gosh stop picking away at every little detail that they miss.
Thank you thank you:) !!!! your so right i hate people that do that:mad:
its just just a sword i'm mean if it had bloody flowers on it and it was pink then you can complain but its just the the colour of the stone get over your selfs.
i loved the movie i thought it was great!
