Anyone going to make props from it? After you watch it post your ideas in this thread.

I find it interesting the number of changes made from book to movie -- as in it is almost completely unrecognizable.

Interesting to is that instead of all the signs being the same (a simple cross in a circle) but of different material, all the signs are now stylized versions of the cross and their element. I wonder if he'll wear them on his belt like in the book.

The book was not bad, but definitely needed to be read when I was young enough to forgive loose storytelling. I think if I'd read it in fifth or sixth grade, I'd have been addicted.

I thoroughly enjoyed the preview for what it was, and I sincerely hope this film doesn't turn out to be an Eragon.

I think the signs would be cool to make:

Derivative garbage based on badly written, mostly stolen material made by people just wanting to cash in on the current fantasy movie craze?:lol

 

[juno]

I don't mind derivative, I just hate boring.

I haven't read them so I'm sure I'll love the movie. From what I've been hearing so far about the books, it's probably better this way.

"An Eragon". Nice. And so true.

 

[The Alethiometrist]

Yeah, the movie was just okay.

The props look real nice, but from the trailers I saw, I dunno about the movie itself. :confused

 

[jonnytrooper]

It looks as bad as Eragon. No thanks.

I actually signed a petition a couple of years ago to not have this movie made.

 

[The Alethiometrist]

Well that takes care of that then. Anyone read The Lovely Bones? I hear that's going to be made into a film. It's not fantasy but there could be some props to be made.

As bad as the movie really was, I was thinking about attempting the signs. I was looking a little closer and different materials would have to be used. Any ideas?

got this out of the cheap bin at Wally-world for my 10yr old :lol

didn't know if anyone ever tired the signs or not
