So, Eragon is not a film for watching, it is a film for laying down and avoiding?
In the meantime don't hold back tell us what you really think.
Glad you had a good weekend, fairly quiet over here.
If you cannot see the causal relationship between "I have chocolate" and "Life is Good", you simply aren't trying hard enough. Pirates of the Burley Griffin
By the look of it, it had vey high production values. Sigh. I do like to *care* about the characters. They just made it very difficult to suspend my disbelief. It came so close to greatness.
Here's what JCS was originally responding to, in Leece's Ramblings. "Then on Saturday, to escape the heat and the blahs we went to see Eragon. Never a movie has been in so in need of a MST3K-ing. It was getting to the point when I could say the actors lines before they did.
A more colour by numbers, join the dots adolescent hackneyed fantasy piece of hack I've never seen. And yet, the dragon was animated well, it had beautiful cinematography and some good actors. If only the writing and story had been better. I'm glad I haven't read the book to be shocked at what's been done to it. At least I hope the book is nothing like the film!"
