Title: His Dark Materials Movies/Books
Post by: Zero on Sep 01 2007, 06:55 PM
Has anyone read the three books by Phillip Pullman?

I heard they're making them into a movie..which I despise, since they messed up the point.

The three books are called The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass.

I only own the last one, but I remember the other two enough to know if the movie is going to ruin the series..

Even this was made a year ago, I think it could use some dusting off.

Who all's seen the movie? They impressed me with how well it was done. A nice refresher away from the butchered Harry Potter's. I just dno't like how they cut out pretty much the entire last half of the last chapter x3

Lyra wasn't exactly how I expected her to look, but she did a DAMN good job!

just saw the movie tonight, pretty damn good but it was a bit lacking in the descriptions of several key concepts, like why getting your daemon severed was so bad, most of the last chapter

*Nods and shrugs.* There was just one main thing that ticked me off about it and that was hte last chapter getting cut out XD

And that's the main thing that I can remember X3

>_> As well as Christians freaking out about Jesus supposedly getting killed... The only thing that ever had anything to even closely deal with that was [!--SPOILER BEGIN--][div onClick=\"openClose(\'e533fc0bd1a66d758d45ed82165a0b7d\')\" style=\"font-weight: bold\"]» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «[/div][div id=\"e533fc0bd1a66d758d45ed82165a0b7d\" style=\"display:none\"][!--SPOILER END--]the angel in the last? book getting killed[!--SPOILER DIV--][/div][!--SPOILER DIV--], but that was about the closest it came.
