This is so cool!!!! Love it! :) You could do an alternate beginning (y'know the cat scene in one of the trailers) . . . and personally I've always hated the beginning of the movie, it's so stupid and gives away so much before the movie even starts! You should be able to discover daemons on your own -- and discover everything as Lyra does. That would make for a much better movie, especially for people who en't (always wanted to say that) read the books! Good luck to you on this!
@EnergyUK Glad to hear that! :) If you're trying to get art for different scenes you could maybe use the video game. . .it has loads of artwork (such as Lyra's room and Mrs. Coulter's flat, if you're planning to do anything with those scenes.) But anyway, I'm defintely looking forward to seeing this when it's done -- I've always been an avid fan of HDM, and The Golden Compass especially. Well, keep up the good work!!!! :)
Unfortunatly hollywood isn't controlled by the want of fans, it's controlled by money. They would also have a lot of problems doing the second and third film as they'd have to fill in a lot of plot holes. A script for the second film was written, but they've sold all the props... etc, and New Line now belongs to Warner Bros due to the losses made by the Golden Compass.
they'll only do it if it makes money. And overal, for the people who matter, Golden Compass cost them a lot of money. So no... they dont need to do the others.
I'd be very suprised now. Shame really, but after the first one not doing well in america, a second one is unlikely. Let alone them actually completing the story!
not sure if that's ment as a moan at me for changing the film or not... The book has her captured and taken to bolvangar. This was even how the film was recorded! except at the last minute they changed it. This is as close to how it was supposed to be as I could get it.
Only new line cinema mixed up the film! This is how it was supposed to be!
This is EXCELLANT, Energy... I hope you haven't abandoned this project. This is REALLY something now that I view it again. No suggestions for this one... Great job!
Energy UK well done on not only this piece of footage but also on what should have been the true ending to the movie. Your dedication and tireless work has helped to give many fans a glimpse of what a true interpretation of the book would have looked like....once again thanks so much!
I feel like a broken record, but once again, fantastic job. I can only imagine how hard it must've been to merge the two versions since the video game was filled with narration while the theatrical scene had obviously dubbed in lines. The color correction's very impressive, too. I love the effect of taking out the "Hello." It certainly makes him creepier and actually feels more appropriate given the circumstances. I can't wait to see your re-edited balloon fall scene!

Great editing. Nice idea to make the guy (I think he's Dr. Cooper) look more creepy, it quite worked.
And to think that the only thing the movie needs to raise from regular to excellent is a new cut. A proper cut.
I still have a little hope of a director's cut someday, if they aren't going to make the next movies.
