Mm. Looks like fun...
Also the movie. Eek. So little is known now...but Tom Stoppard is writing the screenplay, that's good...so for now I am just crossing my fingers.

Oooo. I'd like to read 'Lyra's Oxford.' 64 pages- seems a bit small, tho. Well, if it continues the trilogy, so be it.

Is it finished? Or did they just say it's 64 pages now? Because if he's still working on it, it will probably be longer.

Yes. Being written by Tom Stoppard, a very good playwright, and I think being produced by New Line Cinema, though I'm not sure about that. At the moment I don't think much else is known.

It is so stupid. There is no way they can capture the essence of those books onscreen.

I'd love to see how they pull movies off with these books. I have an ominous feeling that they're going to water it down, though. The children will probably be a year or two older in the movie as well.
The Gallevespians! I loved the Gallevespians. Lord Roke was my absolute favorite.

The third one. They're acting as the watch-dogs over Will and Lyra.
