i disagree with you whatthejuice, do rember when he said in his book dust was when matter become conscience. it is preserverance of knowledge and wisdom. since there hundreds of the stuff it defeats the purpose of the divine.

Malacth, I do have my facts right. 3rd in the US? You have got to be kidding. The film did so poorly that talks of a sequel, once a given, have now been put on hold. I don't know where you get your data, but here in the USA, the film was a disaster.

I don't know why, whatthejuice. I was quoting Pullman himself. He is the one who said, quite specifically, that he wished to kill God in the minds of children. He was outraged by the Narnia Chronicles, which is why he wrote his own books. They are his "answer" to Narnia.

Well boy, you sound very christ like.
Whatthejuice (December 31, 1969 at 6:59 pm)
If he wants to kill Gods in the minds of children, then why does he include the concept of Dust in his books? Dust is most definitely the divine stuff in the context of the book. He did not kill god within the book, he preserved the divine, and I respect that.

Yes, the director said in an interview that they had to water this film down so that it would get viewers, none of the other two films will be watered down he said because anti religion is what they are soley based on.

I was so disappointed with the movie. Every scene felt rushed, and the ending was left out for a possible sequal. They nearly completely squished any mention of religion as well, which is a shame, but movies are about making money. Unbelievably good books.

It was? Does that mean they're considering making the sublte knife?

LoL the film wasnt a flop, it was the highest grossing film of the year in the UK and 3rd in USA. Get you facts right before spreading your dirty little lies. |
