The cities Therinsford, Yazuac, Teirm, Dauth, and Dras-Leona. She's not supposed to do that, & it feels wrong.Ģnd, the Other Things They Got Wrong or Didn't Include At All:Īge and the general concept of time. Plus, she referred to herself in 3rd person, for example: 'Would you like Angela to tell your fortune?', or something along those lines. It felt like Angela's character was someone else entirely, someone I don't like. Her movie-self lacked Angela's spunky, interestingly different, sometimes confusing personality that I love. In the movie, however, Arya has AUBURN-ish hair, BROWN eyes, wears DRESSES, is weak-willed, neither mentally nor physically strong, is doing NOTHING BUT being a damsel in distress, acts like a TEENAGE HUMAN GIRL in front of Eragon, and is CONSTANTLY flirting w/ him!! In short, acting NOTHING like the brave elf warrior she's supposed to be!!!Īngela: Angela's another disappointment. In the book, Arya has long, raven-BLACK hair, striking slanted GREEN eyes, wears MAN'S clothes (as Paolini calls them, a tunic & breeches/trousers), is STRONG-willed, mentally & physically strong, ISN'T just waiting around for someone to save her, is over 100 years old, & is totally UNINTERESTED in Eragon for the ENTIRE 1st book. Galbatorix: GALBATORIX WASN'T IN THE BOOK, BUT WAS IN THE MOVIE! HOW DOES THIS MAKE SENSE?!!!!!!Īrya: Arya was 1 of the worst parts in this fiasco of a movie. Murtagh: In the book, he was definitely a lot more somber, less cheery, a bit older, & less of a go-w/-the-flow guy than he was in the movie. But in the movie, Brom looked middle-aged, had a short grey beard, & no staff. He was 15 in the book, but 17 in the movie.īrom: In the book, Brom was an old man w/ a long white beard, a staff, a dragon-less Rider, & Eragon's dad, as we find in book 3. No, wait, movie-Eragon was a LOT MORE STUPID than book-Eragon.

Katrina: Like I said above, Katrina WASN'T in the movie.Įragon: Eragon himself wasn't changed much in the movie -other than him getting his brown hair & eyes changed to blonde hair & blue eyes- but his actions WERE. In the movie, though, Roran wasn't in love w/ Katrina (cuz she isn't in the movie at all), & he & Eragon looked so alike in age & blonde hair that in the brief time they were shown together, I couldn't tell them apart! It was like they were TWINS instead of cousins! Roran: Roran in the book was dark-haired, a bit older than Eragon, & madly in love w/ Katrina.

I'm gonna list as many wrong things as I can. If I were Paolini & my book got so atrociously tortured, I'd sue. But really, only the most basic elements of the story were correct & included in the movie. If any of you reading my rant actually LIKED the so-called 'movie' (which I seriously doubt if you read all 4 of the books), then I'm sorry, but I'm entitled to my own opinion, so no complaining allowed. Seriously, that thing doesn't deserve to be called a real movie. It's literally the WORST NON-SPOOF movie that I have EVER had the MISFORTUNE to see in my ENTIRE LIFE.

I am a huge fan of the Eragon books, so last year when I heard that there was an Eragon movie, I was really excited to see the world of Alagaesia come to life on the screen! I'd heard from a friend that the movie was bad, but I brushed it off as a bad opinion.
