Lol, true. I think that he has some flaws in his character making skills, (except for Murtagh, who was a one-hit wonder) and in describing characters. In the books, he only describes each character once in a single paragraph. (Which is why I'm having a lot of difficulty in making a profile for Murtagh--because of his extremely short and not very descriptive, single paragraph on his appearance.)

Hate to be the wet blanket idiot...
But Murtagh isn't great himself. He's all... emo, y'know? He has the basics: sulky, dark past -- stuff that's fun in a character. But he's also taken to angsting about it. I dunno... he could be tougher. A past like that doesn't leave saps.

Correction: He's not that emo.
But he comes close.

They just make him seem more emo in the movie (but he is still seriously cool like that).

Haven't seen the movie yet; probably won't see it until it's out on DVD. My family never watches movies in the cinema and they won't let me go alone.
MURTAGH = EMOTIONALLY CHALLENGED / DEPRESSED AND DEPRESSING.
Because I say so.

Ah, yes. They only show Murtagh for a total of like, maybe 10 minutes in the entire movie. In the books, he was there for half the time.

My thoughts exactly. I guarantee it. But I still do believe that they have the same mother (therefore making Murtagh, Eragon's half-brother.)

Family ties?
You guys are overthinking it.

But what about the thing that Blagden said (the white raven in Ellesmera)? *goes to check book, then comes back*
"While two may share two,
And one of two is certainly one,
One might be two."
While two sons (Eragon and Murtagh) "may" share the same two parents (Morzan and Selena),
And one parent of two parents, the Mother-Selena, is certainly the same one parent of both sons,
One parent, the Father, might be two Fathers (Brom and Morzan) each having one of the sons.
What in the world could this riddle be about if it doesn't support the two-father theory?

Yes, everything will unfold...I'm actually writing him a letter right now...I'm trying to get him to not kill Murtagh in Book 3, but if he does it better be a good death. But I doubt that he'll actually listen to me...

We have to write Buisness letters in school. I have one that's to Abercrombie Corp. Yet another I am writing to R.A. Salvatore, One of me favorite writers ^_^ It's sounds Very chessy so beware!
"Dear Mr.Salvatore,
As to first start this off, as you have began to read my letter, I must say I’m genially appreciative of your patience and willingness to take your time to read this. An introduction. My name is Amanda, a student attending a junior high in Illinois. As an avid fan of your writings, I can do nothing more then praise your works. Your creativity in which you create your characters and the wonderful way you describe things in such sharp precision to create a magical world where imagination has no limits. You are an inspiration to any writers, which include myself. I am writing my own story at the moment and I can not emphasize more of the complete inspiration you have been to me. I’m just now reading the Halfling’s Gem and so far have loved every moment of your stories’ words.
If you would perhaps have some advice for me, please send a correspondence, yet if you find yourself inept and too busy to respond, as I am sure you are, I would just like to thank you for taking your time to read my letter. Thank you again, I hope for a response.
(signature)
Amanda *Last Name*"
