I went to see Marie Antoinette (sp?)

They cut the trailors short so we missed the beginning, I found it to be quite slow and laboured, rather boring really but the dresses were pretty. I also thought the ending was rather cr*p because they didn't show her get beheaded which everyone ought to know is what happens even if they aren't particularly interested in history so it kind of feels wrong not to have seen it or at least the suggestion of it.

I haven't seen any movies lately.

But I desperately want to see Eragon and Happy Feet (coz I'm a Tap Dancer- so naturally I would want to see a Tap Dancing Penguin...right?!)

Eragon...so dissapointing, did they even actually read the book ever? I suppose they must have to get the names but meh...complete murder of book.

Worst book to film converson I have ever seen.

I know! I went to see it yesterday with a few friends, and spent most of it pointing out the inaccuracies and made-up stuff. I mean, if they're going to try and make Eldest as well they're going to have to take even more seriois liberties with the plot. We'll be going on about it for a good month at least, before getting around to spending hours making an actual list of things wrong with it.

Did you notice Saphira's armour had a full face when Arya showed it to Eragon but when she started to wear it it only covered her forehead?

That was spoonish- a basic yet seemingly obvious mistake. They said that they were trying to make it as close to the book as possible- how much further from the book was it possible to make it?
