The whole point of switching to the new blog style a few months ago was to be more bloggy, well I’m coming up for some air and wanted to share my excitement..
I saw the preview for “The Golden Compass” yesterday and was reminded again how excited I am to see the movie! What is even more wonderful is that it looks like, from what I can see in the preview, that the movie is sticking very close to the book, the whole “Dark Materials” series is a beautiful, scary, thrilling and intelligent set of books and it was refreshing to see a set of young adult/childrens books, that strive to be thought provoking and challenge children and our views of the world.
Plus seriously, the polar bear, oh wow. The stuff dreams are made of.
shananboy, i’m so glad you blogged this.. i had forgotten what it was called… wow does that look cool or what????
BettyI saw this preview last week and I was blown away! It’s just liekebeing in Warcraft! Now do you see why I play?
These are not books I’ve read, I’m ashamed to say.
I’ll go find them and catch up before the movie comes out.
