Based on author Philip Pullman's bestselling and award-winning novel, The Golden Compass tells the first story in Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. The Golden Compass is an exciting fantasy adventure, set in an alternative world where people's souls manifest themselves as animals, talking bears fight wars, and Gyptians and witches co-exist. At the center of the story is Lyra (played by newcomer Dakota Blue Richards), a 12-year-old girl who starts out trying to rescue a friend who's been kidnapped by a mysterious organization known as the Gobblers - and winds up on an epic quest to save not only her world, but ours as well. The Golden Compass stars an ensemble cast that includes Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Sam Elliott, and Ian McShane. The film is written and directed by Chris Weitz (About A Boy, Antz) and produced by Deborah Forte and Bill Carraro (Frequency). It is executive produced by Andrew Miano and Paul Weitz (In Good Company). The Golden Compass is scheduled for a Dec. 7, 2007 release.
Man, who composed this music at 1:11, and onward? I can't find it anywhere, and it's not on the score. I need to know the name of the song and its composer, if anyone can help me out. Thanks.

I like both The Golden Compass and Narnia. Both of them together offer a neutral view between religion and atheism. But each of them alone is too biased though. Nobody is really able to prove whether God is real or unreal.

Nvm, I think Ian McKellan is actually voicing the bear, Iorek Byrnison. McShane is voicing Ragnar Sturlusson. High caliber actors.

What about Dakota? The star..?

This looks actually.. quite good. I heard Ian McShane was voicing one of the animals (thought it was the Polar bear). Anyway, they could have made it incredibly lame but it looks like it will be quite badass.
