Has anybody else seen anything for this? I hadn't heard anything about them even working on a movie for this and then i see that the movie is scheduled for release in December. Man! This one flew completely under my radar. i hope it rocks though!

i had heard that the books were pretty terrible so my excitement for the movie is tepid at best.

The trailer looks like Dungeons and Dragons 2, sadly.

Honestly...couldn't get pass the second paragraph on the first page.

And I bought BOTH books through Diamond and my store.

The trailer for the film does look stunning...as long as no one, other than Jeremy Irons, speaks a word of dialogue during it.

i liked the books. they wern't awe inspiring but they were halfway decent so i'm gonna give the movie a try. The game though looks like shit (the demo for the 360 was less than stellar IMO)

so i liked the books and will give the movie a watch based on that but im still friggen pissed that the cute elf chick has no friggen elf ears

From everything I have ever heard, those books are pretty much the most cliche fantasy novels ever.

That being said, I'm sure I'll watch this when they play it on Sci-fi next fall.

Aw man. i really dig the books. i wouldn't call them great books. Like Ender's Game for example. But i thought they were really good. i defintely thought they were better than the Tolkein books. The Eragon books are a bit lengthy, but every page is filled with actual story. No taking twenty pages to descige how an imp looks. If you haven't read then you should really give them a try. As for the game. i don't give a crap about the game because games based on a movie to meet the movies schedule always sucks. But i do hope the movie is good.

They ran a commercial several times during the World Series.

Really? i didn't watch it because my team sucked this year. But i wish i had seen a trailer. And i won't try to download one because i have dial up. So i guess i'll just have to wait.
