I think it would make a great film if it's done right. EG, evryone said Lord of The Rings couldn't be put into film, but it's the best film I've ever seen (In my opinion).

Films that are criticized are critized because they are compared to the books.

I never noticed that but your right! Too many books are being made into films nowadays! Bring on filmmakers own ideas! But still, I want to see Harry Potter, LOTR, and His Dark Materials released as films!

Liked the first one, didn't like the second as much. Maybe due to the fact that there was such a long gap between them being released I'd mainly forgotten most of the plot details. Not read the third one yet.

Has anyone read his other series, set around 1900? I think that's when it's set, anyway. They're called things like "The Ruby in the Smoke".

The films would be pretty crap really.

It'd be a lot of computer-generated stuff. Also the certificate would be quite high, all because Will loses two fingers, and it would have to be graphic.

No. Don't make it into a film. You'll ruin it.

Come to think of it, Iorek would have to be computer generated! It wouldn't look real. Plus it would be "childrens books" and Adult films because of Will's fingers and the fight between Iorek and Iofur.
