I heard they're making this into a movie.  With any luck, it'll be good.

Any thoughts on it? Did you like the books? Do you think the movie will be good, and why?
errr... something like that...

Awesome!  His Dark Materials was a great book series--one of my favorite.

I've found it rare that someone enjoys a movie based on a book if they've read the book beforehand.  The reasons for this are obvious (preconceptions from the book, etc).  I hope it'll be a good movie, though!

If it's done right, it'll be amazing.  I really hope it gets a good writer and a good director.
