The Golden Compass

Bad books them. Mind you, I haven't gone to see the film still, so unless a bunch of leprichauns high on festive spirits knock me out with a bottle of Bailey's and pin me a la Clockwork Orange in a cinema seat, I won't be watching it.

I'm glad someone agrees that the books are poor, and I wouldn't have it any other person.

I agree with the leprechaun sentiment, though it would take more than a bash with a bottle of Baileys to keep me in the cinema.

I liked the movie. It's easy to understand in allegorical meaning. We all have our demons. When we are children it's not so apparent as when we are all adults. To cut out the demons from the children, the adults felt they were doing them some favor, but instead it took away their freewill. It made them zombies sorta. Like the angel on your one shoulder and the devil on your left. It left them EMPTY.
