Eragon AKA "Lets make a crappy book into a movie!"

[Kroze]

Well... I went to see this today...
My friend and I both agreed that Jermey Irons must of lost a bet or something to be in this ripoff fest.
Whats it about you ask?
Well, take one part Pern, two thirds Earthsea, and a dash of LotR and you get Eragon the book... now add in a pinch of Dragonheart and you get this movie...
And if you haven't read any of the above things that I have mentioned, I would recommend doing so instead of reading this book OR seeing this movie.

And now to complete my craptacular review, I now present to you all:
Eragon: Mystery Science Theater 3000 style!

So, uhh, this cliche book got insanely popular and moneymaking to the point where it has an actually somewhat decent looking movie?

I should write a cliche book sometime. I am a teenager. Any neat looking book I write gets instantly famous.

Defidently a Lord of the Rings spoof. Paolini was probably an admirer. I really hope I don't see it.

Just wait, a RiffTrax will be up for the thing eventually.

We are hoping to have ours up before they put up theirs.

So you're trying to beat the MST3K guys at their own thing? It'd be tough.

Thats the idea....
Lets just say we like getting our asses handed to us.
