Dude, they are both completely awful. Seriously, they are embarassing even by the standards that the fantasy genre usually sets for itself. Christopher Paolini is a juvenile chode that wouldn't have ever been published if not for mommy and daddy.

Yes, I really hate Eragon. I picked it up at a train station in India just before heading out into the BACK COUNTRY for a week and it's all I had to read and holy fuck it is terrible.

HOWEVER!!!!

The movie, somehow, managed to be worse.

I thought it was awesome.  Yeah it not really original at all... now your making me second guess why I like it THANKS ALOT!

Still getting the 3rd and 4th books though so I can see what gonna happen.
Yay! Random words!

About American Psycho, I thought that the movie really did capture the essence of the Bateman character well, in the fact that he is completely out of control and he can't do anything to stop himself. The character was like a train wreck ad infinitum, and there was no way to stop it. I think that focussing on the violent or tortuous apsects of the character is unnescessary compared to portraying this fact.
