Not bad. Never read the books or saw the movie that came out a while back.

This looks so good. The effects on these animals and D&D said they couldn't get Jon to pet Ghost...

Man, seeing Keen there makes me hope Marvel Studios produces the X-23 movie James Mangold wanted to do.

Dafne Keen has always reminded me of someone but I have not been able to place it until now. She reminds me of Lina Leandersson from the film...Let The Right One In.



Not saying they look that much alike, but they are young actresses that successfully took on mature roles!

This trailer would be trending way more if they had put "From the director of Cats" in there.

(I'm not joking; Tom Hooper directed some episodes)

This series kind of goes off the rails after the first book.
Becomes a bit too preachy against religion, to the point they even change one of main goals of a character from killing death to killing God, and then beat you over the head with it.
Plus there are creatures that evolved to have "Wheels".

I liked The Golden Compass movie and was disappointed that there was no sequel. I will definitely watch this!
