I thought that Saphia's voice was okay, and the actors did a good job. But I agree with you with everthing else!!!

They didn't protrey Brom and Eragon as in the books. Eragon is annoying and ask to many questions while Brom is annoyed by him and seem not to willing to answer the questions. In the movie, Brom seem happy to answer the questions. It's just plain wrong.
I have to agree baby Saphira is so so so cute..... but the flight where she grew up from a young dragon to a big dragon is just plain weird.

I agree with everything you have said. And I have to say that it is sad that I can still think of other things that were wrong too!
Like Saphira names herself?
Did any of their lines come from the book?
And so on and so on....
At least they buried Brom somewhat like they did in the book. But it looked more like plain glass and had no engraving.

Roran left so he didn't have to go to the army.

urm no offence but.. ANGELA IS WIERD! lol she is but shes funny. and saphira is amazin and the twins i think werent seen but they were meant to be init i cnt remeber. 3 days long??? wat?? they do skip days. the raz'zac are hard to portray because everyone has different views on it. u can tell hrogther is a dwarf because he is small. ok this is just my view lol. tho i aggree and plus u mist the fact that he doesnt get the cut across the back by durza.

i think the movie was fine. i also think that itd be a heartbreaker if they didnt make Eldest. The only thing i was upset with fully was that they blew through the book in a hurry.

You know, the most amazing "up" of the whole film- the way they let Brom die. I hate to admit it, but that one bit was better than how CP himself did it. I loved it- Saphira goes "let him die with honour, as a rider" or something along those lines, and he dies riding Saphira! I just thought that was such a good scene. Apart from that, the book was obviously a lot better than the film, but I still liked the film. I mean, sure, they missed a LOT of things out, but I watched it as a good film, rather than comparing it to to book all the way through. If you spend the whole time scrutinizing it for what they did or didn't do, it just doesn't make it an enjoyable experience at all.
