Eragon, the Movie: I Want my Money Back!

Ok. Here's the deal — the movie Eragon is absolute crap. The biggest hackneyed ripoff of both the original Star Wars Trilogy and Lord of the Rings, with nothing original, nothing worthwhile, and a ton of annoyance to boot. 40 minutes in, I had to turn it off — I felt fairly soiled. I'm asking Blockbuster for my money back—shame they can't return me the 40 minutes of lifespan I wasted on this drivel. F

Ouch! I'm sorry. I could've spared you the anquish if you had told me you were thinking of seeing it. I took some wee-ones to see it and I think I came out of the theatre with some of my college education melting in my brain and leaking out my right ear.

BTW. Hi, How are you? Did you get my email & text?
How's the costuming etc etc etc...?

Well, when it was published, the author was only nineteen.

Discuss.

I saw the poster and some part of me wanted to see the film, some other wished to stay away from it as far as possible. Thanks for the guidance :)
