Here's what pisses me off--my brother in law, who is in film, tried for years to get some money people behind it. He had the rights for a time, but finally when interest in kidzfilms perked up again, this bozo comes along and throws major money....and instead of doing a faithful story (and the book is intensely cinematic) turns in a piece of crap that could just as well have been made up from scratch, as it's pretty much all cliches. Or why didn't he get the rights to the sequel to Eragon, where the cliches are right there for anyone to use?
