I LOVED IT. Everyone applauded on two instances. When Saphira came into the cave towards the end after Eragon thought she was dead, and at the end. XDD And my friend and I were laughing through the whole movie. Don't you think he'd already know she was dead (if she was) cause if the dragon dies the Rider dies or vice versa? I thought in the movie that if the dragon died the person still lived but if the person died so did the dragon?

The movie was ok.....but it could gave been done A LOT better....(like makin' it longer for one thing!) even stranger is.....the director(s) had to have read the book first in order to create the movie....and it was BASED on the book which meant they were free to "twist" the story into any shape they wanted....but i do agree with you, lonewerewolf, they did leave out alot...but if you try hard not to think of the book much, it does make a great movie....still they could have atleast made it longer!

Yes it also copied alot on Lord of the Rings; the elves and their ancient language, dwarves and that a wizard/sorceror worked for the bad guy (Durza/Galbatorix Saruman/Sauron). Also that the title Eregon is two letters short of Aragorn (the king in LOTR). Also the elf is supposed to look exactly like Arwen, a major elf character in LOTR. Reminded me way too much of it. also... did any of you realize that Eragon is a lot like star wars?! evil empire.....strange world.....powerful person (galbatorix/darth sideous) as evil mastermind......some of the characters are even similar to the ones in Star wars....just figure it out...i never actually realized until just a couple days ago when my dad mentioned it....it's really a stories within a story....(my dad keeps saying "Aragorn" instead of "Eragon"....i have 2 keep reminding him (aw why? he's never exactly read the series...at all....or ever will)it's ERAGON.....

THIS MOVIE ROCKED!!! I almost cried when Saphira was like X.X and said, "Even you don't have a heart strong enough for the both of us." Plus, when Saphira was a baby I was like AWWWWW!!!

I haven't seen the movie and I don't think I will. I've read books 1 and 2 and WAS looking forward to the movie. I saw a good trailer online but then I saw one on TV and was like: "OMG...WHAT DID THEY DO?". Yeah...by the looks of it they made all the characters too young or too old, and I'm not one for a lot of romance either...

Yeah it did copy quite a bit. I even pictured Arya just like Arwen, the dwarves the same and when I first heard the title Eragon it made me think of Aragorn. But still, they could have at least pointed the elves ears. Seriously. And yes, Saphira WAS an adorable baby!!

I heard the book and the movie sucked, but I dunno I might see the movie, I know for sure I won't read the book but I might see the movie none the less.
