    I vote for shaking up the Twilight franchise: Roman Polanski (hey, at least allow him set-visiting privileges) or Larry Clark.

    Golden Compass was a good movie, that i thoroughly enjoyed. I think its failure to be box office gold had more to do with crazy religious types causing a ruffle over it. I had three separate family members call me up and ask me if I planned on seeing the heresy of the "golden compass."


    I told them I read the books, loved them, and would be seeing the movie. They indicated that I was likely going to burn, but as I have been intimately involved with most of my own exploits, this news did not come as a surprise to me, though I didn't think that reading the compass series as what was going to put me over the edge.

    Yes, you have a very succesful movie so decide not to have the same people helm your sequel. Definitely corporate thinking...

    @hatefulevilscumface:
    Hardwicke refused to come back. What are you going to do, tie her down and MAKE her do it?


    In my opine, Weitz is actually more compatable for this material than the over-rated H.

    So now we're going to hate on this movie for a couple years until IT'S a big success, and then quit talking about it and begin hating on the third?

    @RAHfanboy for one, welcomes his Marxist overlords.: No, I plan to ignore all of them as much as possible and hate on them all when I'm not ignoring.

    I, like many people outside US, liked The Golden Compass. I liked the actors and the feel of the world. It was much better then Twilight.

    While a failure in the US, The Golden Compass made over 300 million outside the US. Hardly a failure, I'd argue.
