The Eragon Movie

On the friends and the Bartimaes trilogy topic, most of my friends aren't the novel reading type. Although in the ones that are, I've let them borrow the first book, and becuase they thought that it was really good, they really wanted to read the others, and so I made them buy the other two to make more profit for Stroud. That's 14 + the three books that I bought that Stroud owes to me that they were sold. That and their amazing quality, of course.

Oh, and since this is a thread on the Eragon movie, I wanted to say that it sucked balls. Way too rushed. And they screwed up the story, even though it was pretty bad to begin with.

Finally someone with sense!
There is a sort of busy worm,
That will the fairest book deform,
Their tasteless tooth will tear and taint
The poet, patiot,sage or saint,
Nor sparing wit nor learning.
Now, if you'd know the reason why,
The best of reasons I'll supply;
'Tis bread to this poor vermin.

Very much so.
Gave the book a very bad image.

You think the studio will allow anyone to do an Eldest Movie?

Is the "she" referring to me? :lol2:

And I was saying that no, I do not like Eragon and that I have been saying that for ages.

Please tell me you are joking, my dear...
I say night I'm living in the forest of my dream,
I know the night is not as it would seem,
I must believe in something,
So I'll make myself believe it,
That this night will never go.

Let it go Artemis, if they want to read it they can. If they still like it after everything we've said its their problem.

Honestly I worry about the sanity of those who liked the Eragon Film. The books get a four or so out of ten, the film gets a negative nine hundred and sixty eight.
Run, run as fast as you can...
