Lmao they shitting on the books but Christopher Paolini be laughing to the bank all day.

I read this before i watched star wars. When i finally got around to watching it i realised that the first book is just a new hope.

One of the Worst horror films of all time

Whoever's saying eragon is bad is a curmudgeon

saw the Eragon cover at a book fair one year and ive been hooked on reading ever since. i owe a lot to that dope ass blue dragon cover

I think the comment shows that everyone pretty much agrees that you are wrong about Ruth Wilson is not a good Marisa Coulter

Gorst character study please?

I agree Will was given a clumsy jolt into the story. I also found the purple elephants unnecessary and silly. Other than that, all was perfection with the HBO version. Ruth Wilson was supreme as Mrs Coulter. The difficulty I think is that this is not a children's story, despite dealing with the experiences of children approaching adulthood. I've not read the books. I found them dull. But this series was so profound, spiritual and philosophical. Unlike P. Pullman I believe in God, yet his vision as interpreted by the series was closer to my beliefs. Nothing is perfect - but this series comes close. Maybe it's because I came to see it as an adult. The film before screamed of potential, but constantly failed to deliver imho. Nichole Kidman didn't have the savage edge as Mrs Coulter that flowed through Ruth Wilson's sensuous and dangerous take. I guess we'll agree to differ. But I did find Will a little annoying.

I loved Eragon :)

The look for logan in the comic book is just terrible.

Eragon war mein erstes Fantasy Buch, ich habe jede Seite geliebt und habe nun eine Sammlung von ca. 480 Fantasy Romanen und das nur weil Eragon alles ins Rollen gebracht hat, dafür werde ich die Reihe immer lieben und es als eines der besten und größten Werke achten, gerade da ich denke, dass kein anderes Buch damals mein Zwölf jähriges ich dazu gebracht hätte mit den lesen anzufangen

Hello 🤗 The best explanation for the unwarranted criticism I've come across is this: if you'd read other fantasy classics before you read Eragon, it seemed like a blatant and boring retelling... If like you and me Eragon was among your very first fantasy books as a kid or teenager, it was new and captivating!

i found the soundtrack really distracting in some parts, would def reccomend something more neutral, bur great vid

My only gripes about the tv show is Lin as Scoresby and that Lyra isn’t a blonde and her hair is pin straight. Her hair is referred several times as being unruly and blonde.

Hbos mistake was nothing. It's that this amazing show came out at the start of covid and the streaming frenzy.

obligatory "your pronounciation sucks" comment. It really hurts after the audiobook

The 2007-film is definitely better than the TV series.

He didn’t copy anything, maybe he took inspiration from but that said there are no new stories to write we have then all covered and there are only so many plots he did great in my opinion

The greatest characters in the series are 1. Bayaz first of the magi 2. The bloody nine 3. The cripple Glokta

His Dark Materials the TV series actually one of the best fantasy book adaptations ever made. The most underrated show and partially because of that awful movie you adore because of the fancy cast. It’s a bad movie with big names. This is an excellent tv show with lesser names. Beautiful themes and scenes delivered by actors. Worthy to the books.

Eragon led me back to fantasy

i red eragon as an adult and i loved it. the 3rd book is alot about eragons brother and honestly roans story was my favorite

I wish they made numbers 2 of the movie and what do u mean religion thing it’s a movie not real life these religious people not get it I’m a Christian and I don’t care about it a great movie what is wrong with them

the inheritence cycle was never bad tho only the movie is really hated on?????

I loved Erafon and the Inharetnce Cyle especially the new book

Eragon was one of the greatest series ever written and I'll die on that hill just bought murtagh and it's phenomenal as well

It is absolutely flawed, but so many of us loved it. Haters gonna hate

Totally agree with everything you say. I will also read book 3 (if it ever comes out) just to see how he ends the story. But the magic is gone. It was destroyed with the second book.

Quick answer: Because it wasn't bad.

Let me spend an hour telling you about why I like this recipe..

I have always quite liked Jezal. He was an arrogant ass but he was also a POV character so I was willing and wanted to see where Abercrombie wanted to take him. I liked where he ended up. Even when he’s unlikable he at least to me was funny. Like when he was checking out his own chin I was like bruh this fuckin guy 😂 I kinda loved it ngl. You don’t see many characters like that. And when you do they’re a side character like Draco malfoy or someshit

People that don't cut him slack for taking so much and emulating other authors when writing the back at 16 are very weird. Like dude was a child when he first wrote the book, what do children do to learn? They emulate adults oh wow crazy concept.

I've just finished watching the TV show, all 3 seasons. I love fantasy and science fiction. I have never read the book, as my mother tongue is Spanish and wanted to see what was so interesting about this world. To be honest, I watched to the end just because I wanted to know what happened and not because it hooked me in. There were parts of the story I didn't understand because they weren't explained at all but tossed on the screen. (For example, the cloud in season 3, why is there a cloud, when did they decide to send it?) However, on other parts, it seems that the story was in a standstill and I couldn't relate to the characters or the things happening. I think the fault was not on the acting but on the adaptation itself. I've heard so many nice comments on the story that I can't understand how I didn't feel any empathy for Lyra or Lee Scoresby at all. Having said that, I also understand that for those who have read the books, they might find the acting and the particular choices of the actors portrayals different to what they have read and imagined. I found Ruth Wilson to be a force of nature and hers and Will Keen's perfomance to be the only reason to keep on watching, besides Simone Kirby's Dr Mary Malone empathetic and relatable character. In all, even if I admire all the CGI daemons and production value, I feel the retelling of the story was the biggest shortcoming of the TV series, being a total turn off for me. Now I'm planning to read the novels.

Definitely take a look at Murtagh at some point. It is the latest full size book entry to Eragon universe and tells a much more gritty/ mature story than its original Inheritance cycle counterpart (the choice in character being an excellent driver behind this). I am a rather picky reader (usually a fan of science fiction) and found this book to be one of the few that could keep me up all night reading it because I had to know how it ended. Only two other novels have gotten me to that point: Halo: Broken Circle, Halo: Mortal Dictata.

i mean eragon was written when he was super young. you can see it , but you can see how he grows up himself and he writes each and evey book. As a young author he was incredibly talented for his age and after reading again ten years later it holds up. its a great book series..

i think its decent book series, maybe more for young kids, but still.

Just because there's elves, dwarves and Orc like creatures in it doesn't make it a rip-off of LOTR. They don't belong to Tolkein, he probably took inspiration from it but I'd like a critic to explain to me how the story about a boy and his dragon is similar to a story about a Hobbit who journeys with others to destroy an evil ring. I don't understand the Star Wars comparison either, but I've only finished the first book.

I read the series at the end of elementary years up to the beginning of middle school and probably finished in 7th grade maybe. I’m now a college student and 23 years old and rereading the series and I actually enjoyed it more my second time reading it.

I read the novels as an adult around the time of each publication. (I recall barely able to wait the third to finally appear…) Very early on, the only character who had a real-life doppelgänger in my head was Mrs. Coulter - I could only imagine Nicole Kidman portraying her. I may be imagining this, but I swear reading that Pullman had her in mind if the stories were ever filmed. So I suspect that came through in the writing and planted itself in my mind. I’ve never seen the stand alone film, just the series, and I never had a chance to finish watching it. But I loved Ruth Wilson playing Mrs. Coulter. (But this may be just due to her psychopathic character in the series “Luther…” ) Still, weirdly, I keep thinking Marisa Coulter is going to morph into Nicole Kidman. 🤔🤷🏻

I love when people complain about Eragon saying there are no "fresh ideas" as if every fantasy book doesnt draw on some element of Tolkien, who himself drew on other material as inspiration. I've seen people say the same about star wars being a rip off of Dune, again there are plenty of ideas taken from it but it told it's own story with it's on settings and characters. Some people just want to complain as if they are some sort of scholar..

I haven't read much but I love the Inheritance Cycle. Of what little I've read it's my favorite series and Saphira is my favorite dragon. The series is the reason why I love dragons so much

About books, firstly erago. Was written by a 19 Yr old , and over the years in the next books his writings improved alot and the plots became more complex . On the other hand , a writer , writing about something will always read similar styles of writeups , and all that comes to mind then he writes , most should be original of course , but things are taken by other writers scripts too it's natural

Ignore the haters.

Best online review of this bloated film

i hate the fact that they used shadow and bone instead of six of crows. it would have been a much better movie with more intense moments

I don’t understand the people that don’t like a piece of media because it hits some tropes that previous works hit or some details that are similar to some details in something else… there’s a reason those things work and being snobby about it specially when the media they like have those elements in it as well the only difference is it just related to them better… it’s okay to not like something or not be interested in something, just say that don’t give the dumb arguments

Imo Logen and West are my favourite by far. At the end of the first trilogy I was pretty sad about what happened ifykyk. West is just the best guy in the worst world. Logen tho is my favourite no small part due to red country which I loved. He’s such a badass

One thing has to be made clear, no matter if you like writing of Eragon or not, the author is clearly a real fan of dragons and the rider x dragon bond. I have red a lot of literature with dragons in them/dragon riders themes/ect. And this one has one of the best human/dragon interactions ever. Many times when Eragon feels bad or vulnerable, he sleeps with Saphira, hidden under her wings, eventually, they literally become one, even prone to have issues if not being together for longer times. So if you love dragons, you REALLY should try this series, no question.

Maybe I’m a tad of a masochist. I love reading and rereading this series. When I was a teen in my Highschool library these were the chunkiest books they had available and I was an avid reader. Sure the language and vocabulary are difficult and I had to look up some words, (reason I started carrying a pocket dictionary, yes cellphones were a thing but my family was too poor to own one at the time.) I enjoyed the reading difficulty and thought that it’s difficulty set me apart from my peers when I dumbfounded them with words they had never heard of before. I owe those memories to this series.

The best version by far is the BBC audiobook
