They buy rights to movies all the time.

Sometimes it takes six years to get off the ground.

And then it takes years to make.

Look at Artemis Fowl.

Check Artemis Fowl thread.

Yeah, I've seen that before, but I still doubt it'll be produced.

It seems like lately they're trying to make every popular teen/kids book into a movie. I don't think many of them will get to the screen.

Sadly, Pullman is going to get his stupid story on screen.

He ruined the last book by making the characters different than who they were, didn't seem to have a conclusion, and randomly add junk in so he could have a bittersweet ending at the end.

The first two were great.

First.

I'm going to read the second one soon though, as soon as I finish another book I'm reading and the library has it.

I noticed they haven't announced a cast yet. Any idea how auditions will be conducted?

I thought the third one was boring.

They have and are filming. See wikipedia.com.

Well, that too. And the plot was cliched and stupid.

Well I thought the Amber Spyglass was exciting, original and brilliant. I feel that there are certain things in the first 2 books that hint at the nature of his views. In each of them there's a figure of authority who's subverted to something sinister. (Mrs Coulter, Latrom) Flawed Authority is a recurring theme in the books and in the third book it just became literal.

I got the feeling that Pullman just chose to air his view more blatantly in the third book, it doesn't really stick out of the trilogy.





Nothing to see here, move along.
