The Golden Compass
Dec. 8th, 2007 10:42 pmI just got back from seeing The Golden Compass, don't worry all spoilers will be under the cut. But first I have 2 things to point out.
1. The previews for new movies included the new Narnia movie, Prince Caspian the irony of previewing a Narnia movie at a Pullman film was not lost on me. Although I don't think it was accidental either.
And 2. After the end of the movie I was talking to my dad about the way it ended (movie vs book ending and so on) and this guy in the front row turned around to educate us that the movie was really the first part in a "tri-ology." Yes, not a trilogy but a tri-ology. Pronounced like biology. I was almost struck speechless.... and I say almost because it's distinctly possible that I referred to the man as a moron under my breath.
Anyways the rest is cut for spoilers of the movie and book because I will be comparing the two. The book is clearly better, please read it, and then read The Subtle Knife and The Amber Spyglass. It's a fantastic trilogy and these are amoung my most favourite books.
