@christopher_paolini: Sooo, my dad found some footage from way back—when I was seventeen and writing a screenplay for Eragon. Sharing here because it's hard to believe that, twenty-five years later, I'm still working on scripts for Eragon, though this time for Disney+. And because sometimes it's fun to share a good laugh. 🤭 ✍️ 😅 #eragon #disneyplus #christopherpaolini

Jason :

What movie? There’s no Eragon movie… no mater how well Jeremy Irons played Brom

Michael Kirby :

can we try Eragon again? give it the same budget as Lord of the rings and get Jeremy irons back to play Brom?

ArtfullyElyse :

what....what do you mean 25 years ago..... this was only 6 years ago what do you mean TWENTY FIVE???

A Mandalorian :

In Ba Sing Se there was never an Eragon movie only a screenplay.

Hubibert :

Ladys and Gentlemen, this is the guy that forced me to buy a second bookshelf

Edith Clark :

Eragon the character had some cringy moments and I think it's possible they are so authentic and relatable because they were written by a cringy teen. Thank you for sharing!

Karen :

Would love to see an adaptation to actually do the series justice. I feel the film took your book, shredded the pages and picked out random bits to do (although Jeremy Irons was a high point in it)

RedWard82 :

How are you Light Yagami and L at the exact same time?

beccalynn1754 :

I love this. It was only "cringe" for a couple of seconds 😂 I can't wait for an actual series of Eragon. The "movie" completely skipped Saphira and Eragon's growth as dragon and rider. I hope the series does the book justice and they don't change a single thing! Don't fix what isn't broken.

Hannah :

To be cringe is to be free, this is so funny and I probably would’ve made the same thing when I was 17 😂

Bearded Godzilla :

Hopefully Disney doesn't botch it like the one that shall not be named... also please draw them a picture of a DRAGON for reference

Frank :

ThatDude93 :

yes, this is pretty much exactly what I expected a teenager writing their own book about dragons and magic to be like. Thank you so much for this!

markuscoleman535 :

Got the full "L" from death note pose going lol freaking awesome.

Rainy🌻 :

This is exactly what I looked like writing fanfiction in my bedroom at age 17 😂

TK Johnson :

This explains why I had to wait so long for those last 2 books 😄

laurayayeet :

honestly felt this in my soul lol. I grew up with Eragon! My mom would read it to me in elementary school, then id take it with me to read ahead 😂. I think I even took AR test on it. I would reread them all the time and when i found out my library had the audio books on cassette tapes I begged my parents to get me a cassette player so I could listen to it as I went to bed at night. Honestly this video made me wanna pull out my copies and dive in again.

zacorius :

😂😂😂😂😂 you definitely would have been a theater kid in public school

Karissa :

You sweet goofy little guy 😂❤️

Ash :

I think thats a really nice look into the past and it wasn't that cringe, I expected way worse. Oh and I just got Murtagh but before I start with it I want to re read the series, this time in english so I'm waiting for the books to arrive.

thewanderingbree :

I unapologetically love the Eragon movie 😂 I just have to separate it from the book story line

Wondering Bard :

I just hope Disney is a bit more book accurate.

🌿 Witchy Izzy 🌿 :

Oh my gods this is so funny 😂 eragon is one of my favorite book series and I can’t wait for the series. (We don’t talk about the movie)

Lauren America Riens :

How cool to see the kid who has influenced me so meaningfully well into my adulthood.

Anna VanCleave :

My parents used you as a “see homeschoolers can do anything” moment all the time. We were homeschooled too around the same time. Lol
