Eragon book vs. Movie
By: lilly | 12-08-2007
I just watched the movie Eragon, It sucked and I knew it would but still, I love the book and I thought ti might be fun (it wasn't, it sucked really bad).The book in complex and slow and beautiful with a lot of emotions and questions about the way people make choices and the effect of those choices, the dragon is as much a character, with a sense of humor and strong feeling as the main human character and there are a lot of technical details about magic and strength and fighting.The movie however looks like an hour and a half music video with no music, there are barely any dialogs, the characters are flat, and a beautiful deep debate about the nature of choices and taking sides and freedom is turn into a basic shallow good and evil battle.IK was wondering if Christopher Paolini made any statements regarding the movie, if he liked it or hated it?

It was only designed to prevent little children from falling off their seats when the car was in motion. Much has changed since then. Today all cars are legally required to provide car seat restraint systems.
