The Golden Compass
I just stumbled upon a trailer for the up-coming movie "The Golden Compass". It looks bloody fantastic. I can't wait to see it, even if it does only comes out in December.
If you are not familiar with this story, I have included the synopsis quoted on Rotten Tomatoes the movie review website:
Based on author Philip Pullman's bestselling and award-winning novel, The Golden Compass tells the first story in Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. The Golden Compass is an exciting fantasy adventure, set in an alternative world where people's souls manifest themselves as animals, talking bears fight wars, and Gyptians and witches co-exist. At the center of the story is Lyra (played by newcomer Dakota Blue Richards), a 12-year-old girl who starts out trying to rescue a friend who's been kidnapped by a mysterious organization known as the Gobblers - and winds up on an epic quest to save not only her world, but ours as well.

Wow! Looks interesting and I see it has 'Our Nic' in it and Sam Elliot (who I haven't seen in anything for years!) How cool. Wonder when we'll get it.

Agreed - looks terrific, and thanks for the link, Strauss (I added it to my blog with a link back to you)

Thanks Scotty!
Did you take the test to see what your spirit guide was? I got a crow named Achean (I think......)I know my hubby is going to want to see this movie. I'll tag along, and will probably enjoy all those special effects.
Yeah, I did actually Kathleen. I got "Diodium" - the fox.
I wonder how many different ones there are to choose from....
