Movie Media: The Golden Compass - Posters, Trailer

Following the box office failures of Eragon, Stardust (which I loved), and The Seeker: The Dark is Rising will New Line be able to score with The Golden Compass? They sure hope so, the $150 million dollar film is expected to make at least that much when it opens. High hopes. The trailer looks very good, if the film is near as good they may have a shot at reaching that goal. This is based on the first book of the His Dark Materials cycle. It was directed by Chris Weitz, who was behind About a Boy, he is stepping into a new realm here and the trailer looks like he may be showing some new tricks. The cast includes Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Eva Green, and battle polar bears. The latest posters also look pretty good.
