Golden Compass?

[CIPWM74]

Spoiler: Religion Alert!

You're thinking ofPlague Of The Jews(A WWII Anti-Jew Nazi film) and The Passion Of The Christ

For someone that doesn't know squat about the series(?), it looks like a Lord of the Rings/Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe knockoff.

fuck movie advertising.....vfd

fuck them all.

these books have infinitely more depth and fucking GOODNESS compared to lotr and fucking narnia.

i fucking if they mess up this fucking movie they are getting a VERY ANGRY EMAIL.

Holy shit, that is the most annoying post I've seen in my life. MORE DEPTH THAN LOTR? ARE YOU A FUCKING RETARD. Perhaps you like the intelligence to read such a large book, in all honest the golden compass lacks DEPTH. Why? Well because it's well written but with a somewhat boring storyline that seems like a 8year old made it. Its really cliche from old norse and greek legends. However LoTR is a masterpiece, you cant even compare the two.

Despain is right, you are wrong. Accept it. Your ideas are bad, his are good. You think the wrong thoughts. You think wrongly.

The Lord of the Rings definitely is a masterpiece however. It set the standard for all twentieth century fantasy literature and beyond, having an influence far greater than anything else of its time.

Most religions in general are hipocritical anyway (ESPECIALLY Christianity).

Erm... I'm not quite sure where you're coming from there, bro.

Anyways, although I haven't read the series (thus, in the minds of some on this thread, disqualifying me from any comment), my friend has read the whole series, and told me the basic gist of it.  From what I can tell, Pullman's writings are not neccecarily anti-Christian, but do posess some strong anti-theist overtones.  So, while I have no desire to see the movie, I have no problem with others seeing it as well.

And, before I am condemned as an overzealous religious nut, I have absolutely no problems with Harry Potter, Lord of The Rings, and anything involving witches/armored polar bears in general and/or talking animals.

So, them's my 2 cents.
