The Golden Compass
« on: June 13, 2007, 03:52:01 pm »
This book is great, hopefully the movie doesn't ruin it!  It looks good, but that doesn't mean anything.  Do the "Meet your Daemon" thing and tell me what you are!! :)

Edit: the test paired me with a fox, but I refuse!  I want a snake. :(

The test should have a special case when you enter the name "dark_drake" or "Mike:" you get a hedgehog.

You'd go crazy if you didn't laugh, so it's only sensible that your daemon is one that looks funny. :P

Lol!  I actually did laugh at that.  Life would be dull if I didn't laugh! :P  People laugh a hell of a lot more when they are with me. :)

I really hope this movie at least does well enough to justify making the Subtle Knife and Amber Spyglass.

That Meet Your Daemon thing is weird.  Apparently I'm modest, shy, spontaneous, sociable, and assertive.  What the hell?

Anyway, I got Sophistra, a female fox.

Yeah, agreed.  A Golden Compass was an excellent book, but I did like its sequels a bit more.

Haha, yeah.  It's messed up.  It said I was modest, humble, sociable... I stopped reading after that.  I retook the test and gave answers that were opposing sociable, humble and modest, but I still got those results, lol.

It's "The" Golden Compass. ;)

I actually hated the last book (The Amber Spyglass, no?). The end became moreso "Hey let's kick Jesus' ass! Hah! The entire series led up to God-bashing." It was kind of ridiculous, to be honest. The end sucked; the second book is probably my favorite of the series.

Haha, yeah.  there was some comment on the blog for the movie that said the series was blasphemous or something.  I think it's funny that people are offended when people disagree with their religious beliefs.

LOL! Anyway, the test actually paired me with Lysandra, a tiger Daemon. Oddly enough, it says that I'm shy and outgoing.  ::)

I wouldn't really go that far. I just think the series could have had a much better ending... with like, Transformers, or something.
