#not eragon

Listen, I grew up loving a certain book too. But especially in this day and age, you have to put your money where your mouth is.

I haven't read the *other* book, but when you live overseas and feel like you can't do much to help the oppressed, the least you can do is be smart about who you're giving supporting, whether it be authors or artists, companies or celebrities.

Just sayin'.

Nobody understands the bond between a girl and the mediocre book she read when she was 13 years old.

Shout out to Cishet White Teenager Christopher Paolini for realizing that if you give people infinite time, a completely non-judgemental society, and the power to change their bodies any way they want, lots of people are gonna start doing Freaky Anthro Transgenderism on themselves.

Like yeah, if I had the option I'd probably turn myself into a bizzare eldritch creature too

If I made a video about Eragon would you watch it?

I don't really do media analysis on Philosophy Tube because other people can do it better and also it's just not where I'm strongest - however I do kindof want to do an unnecessarily deep dive into the Eragon books?

I just finished the new one and I have a lot of thoughts, but mainly a lot of joy and excitement that I want to share???

idk would you watch that? If I was like, "Hey - normally we do serious philosophy, but just this once for a treat let's do something easy and different and talk about a fantasy book series I love?"

Last time I did media analysis was with the Chernobyl series back in Philosophy Tube Season 2 and it didn't do super well, but I feel the planets aligning to try it again...

I think there's potentially some interesting questions to be asked... Honestly, part of my reluctance (I'm recognising now) is my own snobbery. There are so many YouTubers who do media analysis and I like the idea that Philosophy Tube is somehow more highfalutin than that, but that's pride talking and maybe I shouldn't listen to that...

It's actually such bullshit that the Eragon movie was such shit. Especially because Saphira was literally the most beautiful dragon to ever be put to live action (even if she didn't fit the book description super well). I'm so mad why was such an amazing dragon wasted on such a bad movie

[thedreamypetal]

I think Eragon needs an ant farm :D

[applejuucee]

SAPHIRA!!! Queen of the skies!

[fox-graves]

Tada! Another dragon finished up, this time Saphira from the Inheritance series, for a fan in Austria. Safe travels, Saphira!

I'm booked through the end of this year, but you can put in dibs for next year's slots here: X

dragon riders are the horse girls of fantasy

[neamhsmess]

The dragons are named like this because:

- Saphira: basically because she's blue

- Thorn: terrible past, ptsd, claustrophobia, he's literally as red as blood, his rider is a magnet for troubles, a name a guarantee

Eragon and Murtagh

"Eragon" - illustrated edition by Sidharth Chaturvedi

[crustaceousfaggot]

Hey did anyone else read this scene as a kid and get hit with a sort of soul-deep primal longing that stuck with them well into adulthood

[kaijuerotica]

this meme has an intended audience of approximately 3 people

Idc what anyone says about Eragon or the rest of the Inheritance cycle books but Christopher Paolini will always be a legend for the 100 year old immortal elf woman telling the in love 15 year old hero:

"You're a child. No."
