Yay!
 I have loved the series for years now and every time I saw a book series being made into a movie I would tell everyone 'You know what would make a great movie? Phillip Pullman's His Dark Materials'. And in January I heard it would be turned into a movie, but now, seeing the poster and everything, I'm so excited  I can't wait, seriously, I don't usually like these big-budget fantasy adaptations (didn't like Narnia), but this looks incredible. To everyone who hasn't yet read the series, DO SO NOW. You won't regret it. __________________

I'm so looking forward to this! I absolutely love His Dark Materials so I hope the movies do the books justice but from what I've seen so far it looks great!

I don't know. I didn't like the remake of Narnia (granted, I didn't like the book either), but Lord of the Rings has made me believe that translating book to screen can be done well
 I don't know, the books are so good so it's a hard act to follow. But it looks good, yeah.__________________

Gwen, I didn't like the Narnia adaptation at all. But LOTR was so good so hopefully this will follow in that tradition.
I know what you mean about the kid's ages. With Lyra especially I think I imagine her as older than she should be. What do you guys think of the casting? And should Nicole have dyed her hair? __________________

Im not too sure about Nicole Kidman...but damn, Daniel Craig will make up for it. I love him  __________________

Kat! I'm not the only one! Most people loved the adaptation of Narnia, so yes.
Well Lyra doesn't look too young to me, but she looks too clean. I always imagined her as a thin, grubby kid - Dakota Richards looks too clean and cute Nicole Kidman looks alright, Daniel Craig I don't know. I like him well enough, but he just seems odd. Eva Green as Serafina Pekkala looks okay, though. It's hard to say because I never really imagined how they'd look like when I read the series.The first time I saw the cast photos, I thought to msyelf, 'Where's Will?' before I realised this is the first one and therefore has no Will yet __________________

Jason Issacs would have been good in the role too.
I always pictured Lyra as a dirty little kid with no regard for her appearance. I wondered about Will too, for a minute there I love Will.I hope they dont screw up the story...Narnia might not have been perfect but it was a million times better than Eragon. That was dreadful...oh god I hope they dont ruin it. __________________

I'm excited about this movie, not only do I love Daniel Craig but I like to watch these type of fantasy movies. The trailer seems like the movie will be really good.

Mine was a SPIDER, ugh. I can't remember its name because I took that quiz awhile ago. Did you guys see that there are new character posters? Here's a link:
