Re: What Have You Watched Recently?
The Golden Compass in Blu-Ray. Very nice! Made me wish I had seen it in the theater. You could tell they were trying to pack a lot in and only scratched the surface on some things but I still enjoyed it and could follow the story just fine.
BTW, I noticed in the "Make one movie" thread that someone referred to the book that the movie was made from, as well as the rest of the trilogy. Now I have bought the first one for my brand new Kindle and I'm reading it. It would be better if I didn't already know the story but I like it anyway.
They market that book now as The Golden Compass: His Dark Materials rather than Northern Lights: His Dark Materials; presumably because of the movie.
