It's weird cause the Twins were still listed on the cast list and they weren't even in the movie!

Really? No Twins? There's no way they could be Canonical if they made a second movie, then. They just killed a lot of the plot connection.

Tall Dwarves? I cant think of any other situatio where those two words would go side by side. Not meanin to be offensive, but even LOTR tried to maeke Gimli look shorter.

That's disappointing.  I haven't seen it yet, but now I'm not as excited... generally, I've heard that most people were a bit disappointed with it. It's too bad... it was a fantastic book... And tall dwarves?? What are they thinking??

I guess they didn't want people to think that they copied LotR... but dwarves have always been short in other things than Lotr!

They just didn't want to pay extra money to get short dwarves.

yup! They could have still tried some of the tricks used in LotR to make them look short... but I guess they didn't want to have to go through all that trouble unlike the people making LotR!

I definitely hate it when people are lazy with movies. Or go for the wrong rating, like they did with Narnia. They should've gone for a PG-13 rating in that, just to make it more realistic. It would've been so much cooler with just that added bit.

Thats the same with Eragon! The book is deffinently PG-13, talking about war and battle and stuff like that! How could it end up only a PG movie?

What make it a bit more exclusive? Most studios find loopholes etc and cut scenes to mak e th emovie fit into a lower age bracket. It isnt agood thing I think. I propose a quest on this kinda thing. Who's with me?

A Quest? I'm not really understanding what you're meaning with that, Eonwesbestmate.
