goldern compass

Went and saw Golden Compass and wasn't really impressed. The cg work was brilliant. The animals all looked real but the editing of the movie itself was horrid. It jumped all of the place and really didn't explain anything well at all. The girl playing the main character wasn't very good at acting either which didn't help much either.
Even as someone who has read the book it got a little confushing in places as it jumped about for no reason what so ever. I really hate to be someone watching it who hasn't read the book.
It was nice eye candy though.

On a side note I brought the graphic novels for both Heroes and The Dark Tower. Also picked up Stardust as Jarv wanted to read it. Have now brought all the christmas presents I need to buy thankfully.
