All three of them do, honestly. The first one's simple yet striking shadow makes it better than the other two, but there's nothing about the first one that couldn't be done by a fan with photoshop experience. e: these posters are parsecs better than those posters. ruddiger fucked around with this message at 00:05 on Apr 7, 2015 |

And I'm going to give everyone present the most gigantic hard-on imaginable, even the women: Drew Struzan has hinted that he may be coming out of retirement to do an Episode VII poster.

True, but Eragon the books also sucked massive dick even by the very low standards of YA lit, so

The best thing about Eragon was the Rifftrax where Disembaudio sang the end theme.

I know that he was 16 or so when he wrote the book.

achillesforever6 posted:Wasn't the author of that book financially abused by his parents or something hosed up like that? I'd believe it. The kid was like 16 or something when he wrote them and his parents made him do book tours to schools and poo poo after getting him a publishing deal (they were either publishers themselves, or at least had close ties to the industry). That they might have taken his money would be absolutely no surprise to me. I wish the author no ill-will and the books always got the "Oh wow for a 16 year-old these are actually quite good" stamp of approval, but they also suck massive chode the way most writing by a 16 year-old does and nothing can change that.

I don't know how true that is. He still lives with his parents. Basically they just bankrolled his whole writing career by publishing his stuff. Eragon is the awful too, and one of the more brazen Star Wars ripoffs out there.

His parents are Knopf?

Also he only wrote the first book as a teenager, he was in his 20's when the second was published and the books progressively get worse and less defensible as the series goes on.

The only remotely surprising or original thing about Eragon is that it's a fantasy series written by a home-schooled kid that isn't obnoxiously religious.

Black Lighter posted:Hey, check out the opinions on this guy. Good lord, there are a lot of horror remakes. And it's extraordinary how, as someone who doesn't like horror, the older posters are all a lot more appealing. Probably because those older horror movies are more appealing to me. They're less scream-y and feel less reliant on cheap scare tactics, which comes through in the posters.

CyRaptor posted:Out of morbid curiousity I just watched a handful of trailers for this on Youtube and literally every shot of this character has his right hand in his, er, apparently-not-pocket. What exactly is the story there? I'm almost afraid to ask. The main character is played by Jamel Debbouze (who also directs), who lost the use of his right arm. In his films his characters generally keep their right hand in their pockets so that this isn't immediately obvious unless you're actively looking for it. He's probably most well-known outside France as the slightly dim vegetable stall assistant in Amelie and as one of the four main characters in Days of Glory (where the arm thing is slightly more noticeable, since he can't use a rifle).

The unfair part of that link is using DVD covers as a poster. That Ring one is a prime example.

Android Bicyclist posted:The best thing about Eragon was the Rifftrax where Disembaudio sang the end theme. No it isn't. I love Eragon. Its a horrible poo poo movie, and a horrible poo poo book series, but that film will never cease to bring me endless joy for one simple reason. Every time they cut to the bad guy in the movie, there is a giant map behind him. Its the exact same map in the book, just blown up to size, like they didn't even try to make it look any better for the movie. But the map is constantly there in the background with the bad guy, apparently serving no purpose because its too ugly to be decorative and its just not a good map for an evil overloard because its just essentially a giant curtain. So it just seems like this incredibly useless map that they shoved in because "hey look its the same one from the books!" Then we reach the end of the movie, and the bad guy says "I am gonna get you, Eragon" or whatever. And he rips the map off the wall, and behind the map is a dragon. That breathes fire at the camera. Its pure bliss. I can' think about that movie without constantly giggling. Its like the robot knife from Avatar, times tenfold.

My memory of Eragon involves being stranded in New York and needing a warm place to hang out for a couple of hours. Eragon was the final screening of the night and I was the only person in the cinema, so I pulled up the arm rests and got a much needed two hours sleep. It's alright in my book for that - I've got no idea what the film is about though.
