    My partner and I walked out of Dune 2 around the 8 or 10-hour mark last weekend.

    I think this post is unfair to Eragon. It was about on par quality-wise with the book.

        The book was terrible, tried re-reading it as an adult and couldn’t make it 5 pages. Loved it as a kid however, but even as a kid I hated the movie.

        It’s a shame because he got steadily better, parts of book 2 and all of book 3 were excellent, although again this is from memory. He clearly struggled to write a decent ending, book 4 was good until the end.
