Oh frick this is literally what they'll do...
Morzan will be evil whyte despot, Brom will be old white guy who has to hand over the reins to the young, vibrant niggo, the mother will be some hideous nigress
Hold the frick up, that reminds me.
Wasn’t Eragon’s mother an assassin called Morzan’s hand or something like that? One trained in magic enough to keep her loyalty and effectiveness, that was seduced by Brom and eventually redeemed?
Did he manage to stealthily rip off Mara Jade too?
>Paolini unironically had amazing talent
Not really. He copied lotr and star wars, then had his parents help him with writing, then had his rich parents publish the book. He had good family connections, not talent.
He has written some books since eragon and they're all shit.

I meant that he wasn't even really good at creating a plagiarized work. If he wrote it singlehandedly then yeah, but he had his rich parents help him.
Most normalgays don't associate dragons with SW. Eragon has more associated brand recognition (it was a #1 NYT Bestseller) and the millennials that grew up reading it will give it the nostalgiabait factor.
As a kid sure. The first book is beat for beat the exact same as Star Wars, and the later books make up rules more convoluted than a DMs first homebrew.
Heh, I think it's fine. Haven't read them in a while but the Star Wars parallels are mostly just names. The first book is pretty classic hero's journey.
I don't remember the rules of the setting too well but wasn't it just "You say something in a magic language and it'll happen, so you must perfectly understand the grammar or you'll frick things up". Pretty simple but decent system.
I guess Obi-Wan would be Brom but Obi-Wan wasn't Luke's father
In SW they don't actually spend that much time travelling but most of the first book in Eragon is spent walking from one end of the country to the other.
The Darth Vader figure is unrelated to the MC and dies at the end of the book
The big battle at the end is about defending a fortress not destroying an enemy base
No one really betrays Luke in SW like the emo guy betrayed Eragon
Yeah there's similarities but SW is one of most well-known application of the Hero's journey so honestly I don't find it surprising to see similarities
Murtagh is Eragon's half brother. And he fulfills the Vader role as well even doing the "I am your brother" reveal at the end of the second book.
Anyway, the books do begin to diverge slightly after the first one (which is straight up ANH), but there still are major similarities that go beyond the Hero's Journey.

Brom takes a bullet for Eragon, Murtagh sweeps in and drives off the attackers, Brom gets put in a grave which magically turns into clear diamond

Too many to list. It's not subtle.
But right at the start, you have a princess who works for the rebellion trying to get an important item that will help defeat the evil empire to a hidden magic warrior who is one of the last of his now nearly extinct order. She's then waylaid during her journey and captured but not before she manages to send the item away. But it doesn't get to who she intended and instead ends up in the hands of a farmboy who lives with his uncle.
And it just keeps continuing from there.

Yeah, but Murtagh isn't that much of a Vader figure since he's a good guy in the first book and his servitude is unwilling. Vader was evil from start in the first movie and wasn't being forced into it by the Emperor.
Honestly, other than the initial setup, people really overblow Eragon's similarity to Star Wars.

This, Durza plays the evil Vader in the start and Murtagh the Han Solo, but that switches after Durza dies
To break it down:
A princess steals the ability to fight and defeat an evil empire. She is captured by the Emperor’s second in command but before he can recover the stolen item, it is sent away to a podunk location, where it is found by a farm boy. This farm boy takes the item to a “crazy” old man who turns out to be a wizard from a bygone era. Returning home, the farm boys uncle is killed by imperial troops who have found him. He flees with the old man, who trains him in his ancient magic. They meet a roguish character who helps them navigate to the fortress where the princess is held, all while being skeptical of the old man’s abilities. They arrive at the fortress and save the princess, but the old man is killed by the villains second in command. They follow directions from the princess to a rebellion, but the empire finds them and engages in a battle. The farmboy is struggling in the battle but puts faith in the new powers he is taught by the old man and uses his new found magic to hit a weak spot that allows the villain to be beaten when his buddy the rogue distracts him. They then all get medals.

The guy who wrote them started when he was literally 14. Taking that into consideration they're not that bad, but they're not brilliant either, there's much better fantasy out there (that isn't Rothfuss, Sanderson, or GRRM).
It was during that post Potter/LOTR period where they were adapting every fantasy book with any name value
But it's 2022. There's no audience for it anymore and the last book was published more than a decade ago.
> that isn't Rothfuss
I really don’t get why kingkiller got big. It was releasing during the time when blogs used characters like Kvothe as target practise, and he was too early to exploit his door stopper getting word of mouth from easy audible downloads.
I can get Sanderson’s success, since he had wheel of time as a springboard, and he’s an inoffensive enough workhorse that he could get attention and keep it when someone wandered into the fantasy/sci fi section and constantly saw new releases.
it's good enough written even if it's pretty much an incel fantasy and the sympatehtic magic, hermeneutics and semitocs in the background are fun
+ it got a big marketing campaign contrasting it with waiting for GRRM to publish Dance with Rothfuss proudly announcing the whole thing was written and to be published in three years which is pretty funny in retrospective
I remember Sanderson mentioning he originally wanted to call oathbringer stones unhallowed, but his producers changed it out of fear it would conflict with kingkiller, since it was also in its third entry and had stone in the name
My favourite part about that series (more a duology really) is the MC having sex with the sex goddess as his first time and then proceeding to frick every female with a pulse except the one girl he actually likes.
It's for nostalgia. Almost exactly the same gap as between the Star Wars OT and the PT (1977-1999 and 2002-2022). If you were prime age for Eragon (by far the best selling and best known of the series) in 2002-2005, you're in your thirties now and probably have your own kids old enough to like a magic and dragons movie. A 15 year old in 2002 is now 35 and may have a kid who's 8-12 years old. Maybe they would be better off waiting until the middle of the decade, but it's clear what they're doing.
I loved them as a teenager, objectively they're pretty generic, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's your average farmer boy hero fantasy journey. I don't know what the bar for YA is, but Eragon was pretty comfy to read. Movie was dogshit though.
I worked QA on the DS game back in the day.
Game was shit beyond your wildest dreams. But it allegedly followed the plot fairly well, which was basically the plot to Star Wars IV but in a Lord of the Rings setting.
Man that was the first game I got for my DS Lite. So good and so bad in equal measures. Actually no, really shit game. Why did it only let you backtrack to certain areas?
I think it was the first organised online hatedom that existed, even if other older books got them eventually too.
The autism of anti-shurtugal was legendary
You will enjoy them if you're a kid or don't mind really generic stuff since it's very tropey
The world is interesting, I remember loving when he goes training with the elves.
The series clearly inspired by lotr and star wars (first book is essentially a new hope).
Keep in mind that Paolini was a teenager when he wrote the first book.

It's super anticlimactic
What was particularly peculiar was that he deliberately foreshadowed him figuring out the name of magic as a time sensitive thing that he’d have to stop or lose, and that him being insane and not grasping what a normal person would see as obvious would be his weakness.
Instead he’s already invincible when he’s faced, and his weakness is being told >kys, gay
It’s not as if he needed a power up since he already had the dragon scrotums
lmao even worse, eragon just exploited a backdoor in the magic rules that galbatorix had no idea existed, just because he never got that far in his training a hundred years ago
Anticlimactic in the sense that the villain was defeated through pure bullshit. All the powerups, all the buildup, the all-in reckless plan for that shot in the dark victory and the villain effortlessly defeats them in a few seconds, make Eragon duel his half-brother for his amusement and then Eragon spergs out magicking "IT'S UNFAAAAAAAAIIIIIIR" at the villain who goes "yeah shit I guess that's unfair lol" and kills himself.
Book 2 is basically unfinishable. I tried for ten years. It's still on my shelve next to my copy of Red Handed, and to this day I still can't be bothered.

I remember being a little dumb kid going to see this movie in theaters because I loved the books. It was the first time I realized a movie can actually be bad. Good learning moment.
as long as this inspires more kino human male and dragon bussy pics on e6, i'm all for it
but i know the show is gonna be fricking awful no matter what
If you mean the books I did until I read the fourth book which was kind of ass and learned that the entire egg and bonding phase including the scar was ripped wholesale out of an older and much less serious book
>Read the first book >It's fantasy Star Wars >Read second book >It's fantasy Empire Strikes Back
Honestly Eragon's cousin was way cooler. He started with even less and ended up becoming a badass rebel leader with an axe.
It literally couldn't be any worse than your pic. >b-but le Black personinos and le trannerinos!
Ajihad or whatever was black in the movie, wasn't he? A few more makes no tangible difference to the quality of the work, especially when Eragon's (the book series) quality was already well into the fricking negatives.
He's black in the books as well.
And you haven't been paying much attention to the garbage D+ has been churning out if you think it can't be worse than the movie. If anyone could make it worse, D+ could.
this kid gonna be black now
M'Beragon. It will be set in a Congo inspired universe
He’ll be mystery meat so they can keep the casting options open for Brom and Morzan while also being able to blackwash his cousin and uncle
Oh frick this is literally what they'll do...
Morzan will be evil whyte despot, Brom will be old white guy who has to hand over the reins to the young, vibrant niggo, the mother will be some hideous nigress

Heragon, starring Zendaya in the titular role
Wasn't the girl a redhead? They'll make her black.
Arya wasn't a redhead. She had dark hair and green eyes. Her skin color is described as tawny though so she'll be brown/black 100%.
As if they cared about that lol they’ll black whomever they want
Doubtless.
The funny part will come when some exec demands a blackwash and nobody reminds him that five of the significant characters are related.
We’re currently living that with the new HBO game of thrones spinoff
And a woman.
I remember my friend tugging me along to watch this tripe in the cinema back in 2006.
UH OH
>Disney
Dropped
I dont remember this movie at all, all I know is that I saw it.
Same. I remember enjoying it because dragon go BRAAAARRRR but that's it.
Thanks for the tip, I'll have to forget everything about it now.
The books aren't even that good, what on earth are they thinking?
It was during that post Potter/LOTR period where they were adapting every fantasy book with any name value
The books are great, extremely readable and engaging, but its children's fantasy ofc
They aren't, even the author thinks they're shit
Source? I know he didn't like the film, obviously.
>It adds irrelevant shit so it's different!
Roran adds nothing to the plot of the first book.
Why? Disney already owns Star Wars. They can just make Star Wars but with dragons and they don't need to even go off brand.
Most normalgays don't associate dragons with SW. Eragon has more associated brand recognition (it was a #1 NYT Bestseller) and the millennials that grew up reading it will give it the nostalgiabait factor.
Are the books even worth reading? I remember every kid at my middle school having a copy of this at the time.
No.
If you are 8-14 years old, then consider reading. If not, then you are probably too old for it.
Not really.
They were both overrated and later overhated,
They're simple and comfy imo, especially if you like middle earth. Each book is like 200-300 pages too long though
BASED Young Adult fantasy kino
It's simple but fun. The first book is very bare bones, closer to the series finale plot kinda falls over and farts. But generally a fun story.
It's a simple adolescent power fantasy. Very comfy and quite fun.
As a kid sure. The first book is beat for beat the exact same as Star Wars, and the later books make up rules more convoluted than a DMs first homebrew.
>rules more convoluted than a DMs first homebrew
Holy low IQ.
Heh, I think it's fine. Haven't read them in a while but the Star Wars parallels are mostly just names. The first book is pretty classic hero's journey.
I don't remember the rules of the setting too well but wasn't it just "You say something in a magic language and it'll happen, so you must perfectly understand the grammar or you'll frick things up". Pretty simple but decent system.
It goes well beyond merely being a take on the hero's journey. The first book is a beat by beat remake of the plot of ANH.
I guess Obi-Wan would be Brom but Obi-Wan wasn't Luke's father
In SW they don't actually spend that much time travelling but most of the first book in Eragon is spent walking from one end of the country to the other.
The Darth Vader figure is unrelated to the MC and dies at the end of the book
The big battle at the end is about defending a fortress not destroying an enemy base
No one really betrays Luke in SW like the emo guy betrayed Eragon
Yeah there's similarities but SW is one of most well-known application of the Hero's journey so honestly I don't find it surprising to see similarities

Ajihad or whatever was black in the movie, wasn't he? A few more makes no tangible difference to the quality of the work, especially when Eragon's (the book series) quality was already well into the fricking negatives.
He's black in the books as well.
And you haven't been paying much attention to the garbage D+ has been churning out if you think it can't be worse than the movie. If anyone could make it worse, D+ could.
They are going to turn chad Roran Stronghammer into a cuck...
