Unfinished Movie of the Year.

The Golden Compass. The movie. The ending. Seemed awfully unfinished. Yes, we all know a second part is coming out, but you can't leave it like that, with Lyra and Roger (who was supposed to die- oops, sorry. Just spoiled that for you. XD) and all those people suspended in mid-air. The daemons were good though, Pan was adorable. And so was the bear fighting scene. See? I can compliment if I want to. 

It's not my thing to watch movies based on books I've read. They all turn out so disappointing, somehow. I think one exception here was LOTR, I watched the movies first, then the books. But it was awesome anyway. I loved it. The soundtrack was good too.
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was a genius. Who else could create their own languages with dialects and everything, races, maps, entire civilizations and the like? Brilliant man.

May It Be -Enya
May it be an evening star 
Shines down upon you 
May it be when darkness falls 
Your heart will be true 
You walk a lonely road 
Oh! How far you are from home 

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come) 
Believe and you will find your way 
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen) 
A promise lives within you now 

May it be the shadows call 
Will fly away 
May it be you journey on 
To light the day 
When the night is overcome 
You may rise to find the sun 

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come) 
Believe and you will find your way 
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen) 
A promise lives within you now 

A promise lives within you now
