Eragon - the Movie???

[wiseheart]

You heard me right. They've actually turned Eragon into a frigging movie. I mean, the book isn't bad, especially the first part (I haven't managed to get any longer than page 60 or so in the second one - it's so depressingly big and heavy), but c'me on, a movie?

Or perhaps it's just my envy speaking? *g*

Drat, I missed Sean Connery in "Dragonheart" - I only get to see all these movies on German TV and therefore dubbed. I like that man - he's the best proof that some men are growing more attractive with age. That's why I used him as a visual aid for Lord Orchald in my Halabor stories (tolkien fanfic). *g*

Unfortunately, I don't know Anne McCaffrey at all.

As for Peter Jackson, I seriously disliked the LOTR movies. Well, I moderately liked the first one, absolutely despised the second one and more or less tolerated the third one. And if he does with Smaug the same thing he did with the Wargs or the oliphaunts, we're probably better off if he doesn't get the chance to mutilate "The Hobbit" as well.
