Yes, I’m still on about the ending of The Golden Compass. It seems as if at least part of the ending fans of the book know we should have had has made its appearance in, of all places, the Golden Compass video game (and that’s a whole ‘nother topic — when video games are more complete entertainment products than films). You can see some of what happens when Lyra reaches Lord Asirel here.
I couldn’t agree more. I could’ve forgiven a lot of the movie’s simplcity if they had just kept that scene in. But, given that a sequel’s still not a forgone conclusion, I guess I should just be glad to see that scene from the video game.
