Eldest - Inheritance Trilogy



Alrighty, I admit it, I am slow. I have just finished reading the above book. Yes, it took me forever, because I'm a free-loader. I would rather wait a few months so I can get it from the library rather than buy it. Cause, really, even though I'm a fan of this series, I'm not actually gonna read it more than twice... It's WAY too thick to be a casual read book. Sure, I'm a quick reader, but I don't have that much bookshelf space!

Anyways, loved the book. Loved Eragon, thought Arya a bit snobbish, thought Roran and Elva plain creepy, and the entire storyline so much like Star Wars, it's almost scary.


An even scarier thought: what if number three still follows the Star Wars trend? Gosh. Imagine that. Harmless-looking little creatures helping the Varden defeat the evil Empire (who the hell thought up those things? That they are able to defeat the Empire, who are wearing blast armor and carrying huge blasters, is entirely implausible. It ruined PT!!!), while Eragon gives himself up to try to turn Murtagh (I can actually imagine that happening), and we later learn from Oromis that Arya is Eragon's sister!... If that actually happens, I swear I will actually buy one just so I can laugh evilly while I burn it.

... Ahem. No offence meant to Christoper Paolini, but please! Please don't pull a RotJ!

ERAGON!


Omigod! The Eragon Movie is coming out!!!!

But in December???? Why are all the good medieval fantasy movies adapted from famous novels coming out in December?? (ex: LotR, Chronicles of Narnia...) .

I can't wait that long!!! T_T

*Sniff*... So until then... I'm gonna spread the news.

Quick Update

So, I've just found out a few spoilers for POTC 3, yet unnamed.

There's gonna be a Chinese pirate! Finally!! It definately took you a while!

And yeah... Jack's not dead. Well, no, he's dead. but not in heaven or hell, but in PURGATORY. C'mon. Stealing from Lost conspiracies now, are you?

... Can't wait!!!!

POTC 2...

(I love this poster. So pretty.)

Just saw Pirates 2 today. Wow... Pretty. I remained dizzy for 5 minutes after the movie ended. What a ride! Let's see...
  • Keira Knightley was super-hot in this one. I am now officially a Jack/Elizabeth shipper. Seems she couldn't resist that eccentric eye-lined rogue any longer than us, either. ^_~ You know you want him, darling! Just admit it!
  • I have to admit, I was pretty much snickering throught the entire movie. Jack is unique and a total classic. Boy, Johnny Depp's a helluvan actor. Especially loved his referring to Will as an eunuch. The slapstick humour and the crazy antics helped, too. Strangely enough, even though this adventure seemed even more dangerous than the last one, there's way more humour in this one. Perhaps not as subtle as the first, but WAY more prominent.
  • Will Turner's finally gotten somewhat of a personality. I was scared for a moment that he'd continue whining again. But it's nice to see that the caracters are not perfect human beings (not even Will), forever turning against each other at the most opportune moment.

Some things that bugged me, however:

  • And why is it that all the other sailors die, except for the opportune few like Cotton, Marty, Pintel, Ragetti, and the guy with the parrot?
  • Tia's accent... I think that during all her scenes, I must have only understood 1/3 of what she said. But then again, I must be getting too dependant on subtitles.
  • Didn't they kill Barbossa???
  • How do they actually expect to get Jack back out of the tummy of the beastie? Kill it and then do a dissection?

... I'm confused.
