Ok...the writer is amazing. Who cares if he was fifteen when he wrote it? Personally, i would rather have the second movie come soon...but it's still an amazing book. Anyone who has only read the biography and NOT the book has NO right to critisize it.
I have read both books, if it is to my comments you refer.
I saw X-Men 3 They didnt show Eragorn for the privews. Do u know, when there gonna show it, at the movie preview?
They cancelled those plans and pushed it to Superman. You can see the Eragon preview then.
I thought that both of the books were exceptional and I can't wait to see the movie. It seems to me that the people who are insulting the books probly aren't smart enough to understand them. The people at the website anti-shurtugal can take their comments and stick them somewhere because they're jealous that their books won't get published (boo hoo)!
What is there to understand? If I wanted to see this story well done I can watch Star Wars.
You have no arguments so rather than actually try and convince somebody of your point of view (with your obviously superior intelligence it should be no trouble) you insult and make fun. And I'm brainless because I don't like Eragon, hm? Truly pathetic.
To just read eragon make me bee paralyze of such a good story, the hell Harry Potter and the other ones but eragon deserves more. To make a movie would breing a legend to life or desapointment to everyone. hope we all liked.
bay the way duses, I just read the first book I'm looking for the eldest one in spanish version because that way I would understnaded more and are you shure that the preview would be in the superman because I was so expecting the preview in the x-men 3.
Pretty sure. It was posted in this same topic a while ago.
And Eragon is not worth the title 'legend.'
Hey Azreal!
Perheps Eragon is a bit whiny, but that makes the story more realistic. At the beginning he is a bit arrogant (perhaps even stupid) but during the second book he becomes a man and understand that he must stand on hes own legs. Have you even read the second book? can you tell me then he is whiny and ignarront there? The point off the whole triology is to see Eragons transformation from a poor farm boy to a hero, and Paulini has whritten the book so you can compere Eragon with yourselfe! Every body is a bit whiny from time to time but, thats why the book is realistic, and why so many people love Eragon. He is not a classic hero, like Luke skywalker, but a normal person like like everybody elese (at least at first)
Don't insult the book with stupid comments, like Justin said; u can stiff them up ure ###!!!!!
Eragon is werther you like it or not, a great book loved by public and critsism, a bestseller in both america and Europe, and the small minorety that hates it is a bunch of one-way-thinking, whiny bessewissers. I hope you are not one of them.
(sorry for that hard comment erlier; didnt mean it)
Had you looked at one of my earlier posts, you would see that the answer to that question is in the affirmative.
Yes he is a classic hero. He's identical to Luke Skywalker with a few hundred character flaws tacked on. I don't compare Eragon to myself because if he went to my school, I'd knock his face off. I can compare Harry Potter to myself because he's pretty much trying to be your average guy at school. He has his friends, his enemies, his crushes, etc. And he's always been a decent person. If he went to my school, I'd be quite happy to befriend him. Eragon has his friends. And some more friends. And some more friends. And a crush who doesn't want him in the slightest. And then there are the bad guys. Eragon would be one of those rich preppy boys who expect the world handed to him on a silver platter. But the past part is: he has no reason to expect that. He's an ignorant farmboy who should be used to hardship and struggling to feed himself/his family. What license has the jerk to exist?
Comparing once more to Mr. Potter: Harry has flaws. Eragon has flaws. Harry is mature. Eragon is not. Harry doesn't always vocalize complaints to the world about how everybody's picking on him.
btw, noname, you might want to read that message in bright red letters on top of your screen that's supposed to stand out to say not to cuss or 'use expletives (including f*** etc).' That is, if you want your posts to stay up. I've been doing my best to stay pretty decent so far, so let's try and keep it civil :) And the 'a' comes before the 'e' in Azrael.
I wouldn't say great. I doubt in twenty years people will really care anymore.
2 things:
a) bessewisser?
b) Closed mindedness.
Come now. Wold I be sitting here arguing with you If I were completely closed to the possibility of Eragon being proven a good book? I think not. A long time ago, I would have said 'OMG eragon suxxorz,' and left to go frollicking in my invisionfree forum.
You most have a pretty good hate to eragon. Maybe the reason why we all like eragon is that it has something deffrent about that I can't explain. I apologize if you got ofended because I gave the name legend to eragon, the reason that I give that to the book is because is the best book so far. But may I ask what is something you would give the name legend to? is it someone that is been remember for something he did over many years or someone that is unique. I don't maind harry p. or strar w. but the reason I thing you like those books or sorties are because they can some how relate to your life or to our present life in a way.
Daniel here confirms what iv'e been trying to say all along. Harry Potter for example is supposed to be a glamurus hero, one who never complains loudly. C. Paolini have tryied to not make eragon such a hero, but a hero not afraid to pity himself and complin about the world; things we do all the time. This is to make it possible for other (real) people to recognice themselves in Eragon. Insted off putting up strict lines for the story, C. Paolini make his story realistic; many people helps him becuase:
a) he is the last not corrupt dragon rider able to stop Galbatorix
b)almost eveyone in Galbatoix Empire hate their emperor becuase he is cruel.
P.S. Bessevisser means something I cant translate in Englisch
thanks for your explenation. but to tell you the true is that eragon is just a good book in wich you may be right on were we are able to comepare your self but not that much. I mean harry p. has all these people around in wich we may be able to comeper our teens life to it. Yes is true that the writter make eragon a guy that complaine about his desteny or life. Now that I think about it harry and eragon are caind of equal.
1) harry complained and got way to angry between 5th -6th about what people expect of him to do or become. Eragon was caind of the same.
2) they both have to learned from there mistakes and life so they can become heroes and have the wisdom necesary for the final battle. but the thing is that the reason why these protagonist are the way they are is because you need time for all of this things to happen so they can determen what to chose. not like giveng them a clock in front of there faces.
they are just guys with problems that are not like ours but in with we can comepare or difine our problems to theres. thats way we may give such a high mark in these stories.
I can say no more, just agree with you, Daniel. :)
On Eragon's 'legend' status:
In a century, ask someone to tell you about Eragon. You'll probably get blank stares.
LotR, 1930's: 75 years down the line: They made an incredibly profitable movie. And people are still asking for more with The Hobbit.
Star Wars, 1977: 30 years later: another massive movie. There's talk of doing the third trilogy with Grand Admiral Thrawn with George Lucas's children.
Eragon: Five years later: You've got people like me and people better than me starting hatelistings, writing reviews for Entertainment Weekly that say horrible things about the book. Here we're starting a movie trilogy, but there's a heapload of dissent.
Not that great things don't always get amazing reviews, Star Wars got ripped up by critics. But I'm saying wait fifty years till we're all old. There will be no hype, no classes exploring Eragon like there are of LotR. There are even classes on Tolkien's languages, for God's sake. Will Paolini receive this? Time will tell.
And none of you guys have offended me, just in case you're worrying. I just note those things that I think should be addressed.
about time you answer my question. well, if you don't thing is possible for eragon to bee a legend is your choise but let me let you know that star w. became a legend because people would not let it go as well the lord of the r. Now I think that for those that are reading these that is my choise and it should be for everyone else to make eragon last as we can because good stories are not for us only but it should be presented to futured generations. Thanks for answerig the cuestions and for most of us been civilized all this time.
Well I can not see a reason why Eragon wouldent be a legend.
Perhaps the will make new movies about Eragon in the future (the had done many movies based at LOTHR, there is no argument why it should not. J R R Tolkiens books where killed bu critics at first, but they praise Eragon and Eldest.
