I’m not worried about The Golden Compass. I dread it, like some sort of apocalyptic event. I feel like Bruce Willis in 12 Monkeys only able to gibber and point to the impending cataclysm while people look at me as though I’m insane. Well you won’t think I’m crazy when people start dying next year.
Phillip Pullman’s "His Dark Materials" Trilogy was a stunning achievement. Epic in scope, rich in imagination, and with a darker outlook then most “Adult” fiction, it was truly something special. Now of course this beautiful butterfly will be killed with formaldehyde and pinned to piece of cardboard.
Enjoy your first look at the non-God killing, church loving, His Dark Materials in the form of pics from the set, courtesy of the BBC. See them here.
