You can't read novels

Although the sentence basically understood, but did not understand the spirit of the story at all. The story felt superficial and meaningless.

Everyone in it has a demon (I don't know if it's so hard, it's a small animal that seems to represent your spiritual body), which is quite funny. Military police Xanter is generally a big wolf dog or something. There are many varieties of children, all of which are relatively small. The beautiful Nicole Kidman is a golden monkey (much like the six-eared macaque in the real and fake Monkey King).

The background of the story is set in the magical Victorian era of England, which is usually considered to be the peak of the British Industrial Revolution and the British Empire. The rise of the mechanical industrial revolution has made people aware of the power of science and technology, and at the same time they are biased to believe that technology can do everything (typically overkill). Therefore, magical movies based on this period can always see the dark streets of England, airships, and steam-machine mechs. . . . Weird invention.

    Anyone experimenting with kids should die ten thousand times. In fact, the movie's world view and spiritual setting are very good, but the plot ends before it can start, and there is no climax throughout the story. Poor New Line Pictures was dragged down like this, and the sequel was completely pornographic...

    Bad movie, can't believe Nicole Kidman, David Craig and Eva Greene could play such a bad movie...

The Golden Compass quotes

  • [first lines]

    Serafina Pekkala: There are many universes and many Earths parallel to each other. Worlds like yours, where people's souls live inside their bodies, and worlds like mine, where they walk beside us, as animal spirits we call daemons.

    Stelmaria: Are we going to see the child?

    Lord Asriel: I should think so.

    Serafina Pekkala: So many worlds. But connecting them all is Dust. Dust was here before the witches of the air, the Gyptians of the water, and the bears of the ice. In my world, scholars invented an alethiometer - a golden compass - and it showed them all that was hidden. But the ruling power, fearing any truth but their own, destroyed these devices and forbade the very mention of Dust. One compass remains, however, and only one who can read it.

  • [last lines]

    Lyra Belacqua: We'll set things right. We will. You, and me, and Iorek, and Serafina Pekkala, and Mr. Scoresby. And my father. We'll set it right, Pan. Just let them try to stop us.
