Era-gone

after talking with my mum about tat issue. ya, it has made my eyes open more widely, n see far beyond the future. i have no regrets for the action i'd took and well, can't wait to start my Uni life and forget that childish game :)

enough of self musings. now lets tok about the movie Eragon.


*warning: spoilers ahead*

if you go to the rottentomatoes.com, a movie reviews website, you'll found that, 70 of the comments given by pro viewers, 60 of them are bad remarks. you may wonder what the hell has happened.

ok, the movie isnt tat bad at all. nice settings, nice casts, nice dragon, nice computer effects, nice legend. but overall the story is quite dull, if compared to Lord of the Rings that is. the story Eragon itself is a plagiarism of Star Wars mixed with Lord of the Rings, so it's nothing fresh to the viewers X.X except for the part that the dragon can only talk and communicate with its master@dragon rider. well, it's sth new :) (the snake, Navigi or wadever in the Harry Potter series can only speak Parseltongue with Voldermort. the dragon in Eragon speaks English! :D)

n thn there's not much action init. i wana see more fighting scenes from Eragon instead of watching him sit on his dragon Saphire and asking her to breathe fire towards the org-looked-alike creatures. and then the villain, the Shade, King Blendablablawadever's powerful assitant, was killed by Eragon just in 8 or 9 seconds. n i was like What?? just like that? O.o'' oh well...


anyway, the movie is still quite exciting and is a good entertainment for family to watch together. afterall this story was written when the author of the book was just 15. if compared to me, i was still writing sum useless craps for exam at tat time. so ya, it's still a good movie to watch if you r not tat sceptical towards the details :p and i give it a 6.5 out of 10 :)

want to read a more funny n aggresive (jk) review? go n visit Hilary's blog XD.

i'm telling you. LOTR dwindles and dwarfs almost any other movies in the market now.

should anyone breaks thru what LOTR achieved,they'll be at the summit for a long long time.
