Golden Compass
Are you planning on seeing the movie? It seesm some religious groups are advising their parishoners to boycott it due to the author's stance on religion. Has anyone read the book series? I'm curious to see how the movie does. It seems to have a great cast and the previews of the special effects I have seen look marvelous.

Must admit, I haven't been to the pictures for over a year. Advertising for this movie has been all over the place lately, and it has piqued my interest somewhat - though whether or not I go to see it has nothing at all to do with the religious proclivities (or lack thereof) of the author.
A person's beliefs are entirely their own, IMO, unless or until they try to "shove them down my throat" so to speak; THEN hear me!!!

National Treasure is next on my must see list but I'm pretty sure I'll get to Golden Compass at least by the time it gets to the discount theater.

IowaMan,
I enjoyed "National Treasure"; well paced, humorous, and it was easy to slip into the storyline. I hope you enjoy it also.
