There have been a lot of complaints about Eragon the movie. It wasn't the greatest movie ever. They messed up so much in that movie, and I think that we should make a remake.

http://www.petitiononline.com/inheri00/petition.html

Please everyone sign this potition to remake Eragon the movie.
Let's give them another chance to make the movie right.
Please everyone sign.

Also, I would like to know if anyone thinks if there is any possible chance that the remake could be made. Can it be made? Will ever again take the chance and make another one? Will they ever make Eldest? Or Brigingr? Anyone thinks that that could ever happen?

Please comment . . .

hear, hear! that's something that everyone in my school is complaining about! I havea to 100% agree with you. You can keep the actors, but add in Orik and make the other characters more like the book, and maybe more action and adventure instead of talking and a little magic here and there.
If they do good on the remake, they should make the second third and fourth movie, when it comes out, that is.

I absolutely HATED the movie. A long time fan of Eragon I was ready to scream when I saw it. They messed up so much in that movie and killed off the ra,zac. That's not supposed to happen until the third book and in Helgrin not a forest. I am up for a remake the the second, third, and fourth movies, which they can't make because the screwed so much stuff up in the first ]

Yeah. The movie really needs a makeover. they didn't have Orik there either. He's like one of the biggest characters, and they didn't give arya pointed ears. They made a big deal of that when they traveled into the forest.

I know I was really mad that they cut out Orik . It's rediculous

lol, yeah. I wasn't too happy.

i know we should really demand a remake and then they can make the next 3 movies

[CENTER]Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.[/CENTER]

uh oh looks like we're enemies lol

yes. the thing is, eragon should be remade. left out many things and changed many things. they should remake it and then go on with the other books

Thank You. Someone agrees with me. HALLELUIAH

Not to mention that it seemed like Arya and Eragon were hitting it off in the movie which everyone knows isn't right at all. They probably would have been kissing by the second movie.

Let Peter Jackson do it after he finishes The Hobbit, atleast when he made changes he had a reason.. Such as Arwen being involved more for the sake of giving her character weight with the audience, infact the only really noticeable change was Helms Deep where the elves shouldn't have been there, though it is understandable to an extent the scene felt somewhat lower in quality.

Or atleast a director who will draw directly from the book, its simply too bad that fans aren't given a huge sum to make these movies ourselves.. lol
I never understood the changes.. Elves should have pointed ears, Dwarves need to be.. well Dwarves, give each movie a three hour span atleast so things can play out better, the movie felt so rushed.. and in some cases rather lazily thrown together (how could they get Zar'roc wrong?)

This series could make a great series of movies on par with
Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter if only the people working on it actually seemed to care about it..

I agree. If Za'roc has blue on it than what would they do with Brisingr? Put red on it? That would defeat the purpose of Rhunon making the swords so specific. I don't remember the movie very well but I know there was something they changed or didn't put in that would really screw up the nect movies. Plus from the ending it looked like they were skipping to the end where Eragon fights Galby.

I also agree with Arthur on the fact that no one really looked right. I really wanted to see what they made out of Urgals but they just looked like people with war paint on their faces. None of the cites were right either.

The really huge change that was made is that in the movie Brom killed the Ra'zac rather close to the beginning of the movie where as they play a rather large part in all three books as far as Rorans storyline goes.

To continue on with a second movies they would have to re-write a large part in each script to either explain why they are still alive, have there be more of them, or replace them with something else. But that is really just one of the large changes..

I don't think anyone who has ever read the books would be happy about them adding another menace to the movie when Eragon struggles as it is. I don't even remember Roran in the movie so I think they would probably just cut him out.

Roran was in the movie. Remember he and Eragon restled after Eragon got home. But ur right about the urgals they didn't even have the right size horns

T___T They killed Brom off like a book and a half too early.
Not only is he one of my favourite characters, but it ***** the plot.
Which means for the sequel (Which they're allegedly going to make) they're going to have to make up some random way for Eragon to meet Jeod since he's only a main character in Brsingr ¬___¬
Not to mention countless other parts of the plot that they're just going to have to INVENT because they killed him off too soon and none of it really makes sense without him D:

Brom dies in the first book... he died right on time its just in the manner of which he died. They never met with Jeod in the movie so he probably won't be in any sequal. I think the next movie would be the last, it looked like Galby was getting ready to fight at the end of the movie.

¬__¬ I was exaggerating. By "a book and a half too early" I meant by their standards (Since Brom doesn't die until after they reach Du Weldenvarden and it's taken them more than a movie that was supposed to cover both of the first books for Eragon to get there).

He did not die "right on time" since half the stuff that happens before his death just blatently didn't happen.
+ Since Jeod is actually a main character they can't really just leave him out for the hell of it.

T___T IMO, FOX killed those movies. The only thing I was really happy with was the special effects.

I don't know which Eragon movie you have seen but the one I have, Brom died defending Eragon while they were rescuing Arya and I know in the book he died before that. Also, they did leave Jeod out of the movie they never went to see him at all Since the whole reason they went to see him was to find the Ra'zac there wasn't a big need for him because they died so soon. Plus, they never went to Du Weldenvarden in the movie, they went to the varden.

Yes, but they messed up the order of lots of things in that Movie.
Yes, Brom died before they rescued Arya but Arya wasn't even supposed to be there at that point in the movie.

I know they didn't meet Jeod in the Movie, but there IS a point in seeing him because he becomes a main character later on.

T___T Yes, I know they didn't go to Du Weldenvarden. That's my point.

I am not familiar eith the parts of the book that revolve around Roran but because he wasn't a big part of the movie, neither was anyone else who was in the parts conserning him and Carvahall.

I think that he had a very big part in the books, but that's just my opinion.

Gomensigh it is my understanding that you think that the movie is ok I have to disagree here is a list of my reasons note that some of them are personal opinions.
1. In the movie if a rider dies his/her dragon dies in the books this is not the case. (Brisingr pg 636-637)
2. the love interest with Arya is completely different from the one in the book where Eragon is spurned by Arya.
3. Urgals are part of the empires military forces in the film not controlled by Durzza as in the book
4. Hrothgar the dwarf king dosen't exist neither does Orik
5. Eragon is much stronger than Arya in the film where in the book he is clearly outmatched by her.
6. There don't seem to be any dwarves in the film as all of the people in farthen dur are of the same height.
7. The Twins don't exist
8. Farthen dur is easily accessible to dragons as saphira flies out of the crater in the film where as in the book the hole in the mountainn is too high for even dragons to reach.
9. Sloan seems to like eragon in the film he knows the egg is the king's propetry and tells him to hide it.
10. Sloan is tortured and killed in the movie
11. The Ra'zac die
12. Katrina dosen't exist
13. Brom believes he is responsible for there being only one dragon in Alagaesia
14. The foresworn don't exist
15. The geography is wrong in the film daret is near foothills of the Beor mountains instead of being in the northen reaches of the empire .
16. Surda dosen't seem to exist.
17. Saphira has to obey eragon in the film where as in the book she dosen't and stays by him because of their bond. (eragon pg 157)
18. Saphira has a different personality
19. No evidence of elves existing
20. Jeod dosen't exist
21. Horst role is cut to the mention of his name only once in the film.
22. No werecat or werecat prophecy and angela is met in daret which isn't on a plain as in the book but in a marsh.
23. No star rose
24. We don't know where Roran has gone so it is likely that if there is a second film roran's plot will be dropped and he will just show up at the varden.
25. In the film the varden are not aware of Brom or that he never played an important part in their councils.
26. Arya refers to Eragon as the leader of the resistance in the film where as in the book he swears fealty to the Vardens new leader Nasuada.
27. In the film it seems that there are only two dragons left saphira and shruikan no other eggs so no thorn.
28. Magic seems completely different from the book
29. In the film it says dragons are the source of magic in the books oromis says that magic exists in nature without riders or dragons.
30. In the film galbatorix wants to kill eragon where as in the books he wants to capture saphira.
31.Eragon already knows the Arya is a princess (very minor)
32. Film misses training of Eragon by Brom to be a rider could have been done in a two or three minute scene.
33. In film brom is killed by durzza not the Ra'zac
34. Murtagh dosen't shoot the shade or save eragon from the Ra'zac
35. In the film saphira instantly grows where in the book she gradually grows.
36. Saphira can't breath fire until after she breaks the star rose in the book but in the films she can breath fire from the beginning.
37. Eragon's power when he first uses magic is vastly incrased from when he used magic in the books.
38. Arya has the wrong hair color and isn't an elf (as these don't seem to exist also she dosen't have pointy ears.
39. Eragon dosen't injure his legs or rely of Saphira for warmth after their first flight.
40. Hadarac desert isn't mentioned and probably dosen't exist in the film world because of the other geographical mishaps.
41. Eragon isn't going to Ellesmera at the end of the film with Arya so will he get any additional training and do Oromis and Glaedr exist it.
42. Elva dosen't exist
43. Doesn't seem that Arya can use magic
Thats over forty problems and I could easily come up with more. Its really a shame fox didn't put more effort into this film as it had great potential however the finished product didn't look like Eragon at all. Several things that were missed were inexcusable such as the lack of the training from Brom to Eragon as this could have easily been fixed by a few simple scenes such as eragon progressing the stick fighting with brom and lifting of the stone in the first book for discipline. I was personally very disappointed by the movie.

There wasn't really a reason to post all of that. I hated everything about the movie inclluding the actors and voice actors. I also did notice all of what you said was wrong with the movie.

If they could remake the Incredible Hulk within a span of 5 years or so, they could with Eragon if someone had the courage for it. It would likely make more money anyway. Of course, the remake of the Hulk was almost as bad as the first. But I'm sure they'd learn from their mistakes here and do a bang up job. Unless they don't cast Jeremy Irons. Then they will fail.

well, they kinda do. same hair and skin, ya know. Brom was my favorite though in the movie, especially in the beginning:

"I was walking by the other day, admiring them sitting on the branch. Clap of thunder, they fell off, dead an me feet. Well, i said, 'oh, cant leave 'em there. Somebody might trip.' "

the best quote from the movie, in my opinion.

I said that eragon and roran looked the same, and brom was my favorite character from the movie, quote-wise.

oh, sorry. My bad. But Brom was cool in the movie, though he did get a spear through his gut (not even close to the book)

that's what stinks. They really need to step it up and re-do the movie.

I doubt it. They would have to put Orik, the star rose, the sorceress (cant think of names right now) and the Twins. If they did that, the movie would be like 5 hours long. lol

that doesn't happen in the book. they really need to change it. Why, cruel fate? why?

oh yeah. And the star rose would have been awsome.

that is, if they make a second movie.

Yeah. It would make the movie longer and more epic. But what would they call it? Eldest/Brisingr?

Then everybody would miss the second book. Wow. this would stink, bad.

Why should they combine the two books?
Eldest properly done could be quite a long movie by itself. I mean, it's not a tiny book and neither is Brisingr. xD Took me like three days to read both of them.

If they did that, unless it was five hours long, they'd just end up missing out on the details of the story. :/

yeah. that's a good point. And if they get to make a new movie, the effects might be better, but that would just take away from the actual plot of the movie.

it would become more drama and less action.

Action isn't the only factor that goes into a movie, you know.

The Fellowship of the RIng for example. The extended version is three and a half hours long, and it has one medium sized battle in it, lasting 5 minutes or so. But that movie is generally accepted by critics as being rather good. ;]
(and not terribly boring, though of course that's more of an opinion)

you're right. That was an excellent movie, I loved it and wanted to watch all three extended versions in a row, but my parents wouldn't let me stay on the couch that long... lol

also, i guess it depends on the type of genre that you like. Im an action, fantasy person, but someone else might be a drama, romance kinda person.

Maybe there should be a poll. Vote yes to combine, vote no to keep them individual.

in my opinion the move cant have the 2nd one cuze to many thing were left out

I guess that is the basic problem with this. They need someone like James Cameron to direct the movie. lol

They should just remake the whole movie.

They can keep the old one and also make a new one.

yeah, and they better not screw up on it.

If so many people dislike it, they wont get enough money to make another movie.

I liked it, but i also disliked it. the effects were great and the plot was nice, but they hardly even followed the book.

I guess it depends on the person. lol

no kidding there but man i cant think of any thing new to talk about now

same here. If no one can think of anything now, I think we're done here.

I think Tim Burton should re do Eragon but just leave johnny depp and his wife out of it. I think it would be so awesome if he did and he follows books pretty well.

that would be cool, but James Cameron should do it. Look how avatar and the titanic came out.

yea but eragon book 1 and 2 are not about love alot now book 3 yes is is all about love to me i see that

yea but avatar and the titanic revolve around love

Well, he does love saphira and is doting over arya, but its mostly action. Avatar wasn't completely about love, remember? there was some good action in it, and he wasn't really pursuing natiri. he just chose her because she was the one that he was most comfortable around.

Yeah. But we really should get back on track. This is about the Eragon movie, remember?
