My husband and I finally had a chance to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix last night. Fantastic! I love a movie I can’t find one thing wrong with, but boy am I glad we didn’t take the kids along. The movie is way too intense and dark for them. Maybe in a few years we can’t rent it and show it to them at home. (For more on HP see Stephen King’s J.K. Rowling’s Ministry of Magic article in Entertainment Weekly.)

But I was excited about a preview of a movie I may be able to take the kids to this November - The Golden Compass - based on Phillip Pullman’s novel. This movie blows away Narnia and I’m just hoping they’ll keep it PG-enough to take Lucie and Nathan to (I’m keeping my fingers crossed - it’s a pretty dark book). I love His Dark Materials Trilogy and can’t wait to see this one with or without the kids.

If you want a sneak preview, check out the beautiful Gold Compass website. (The trailer I saw last night said the movie would be released November 21. However, the website and Entertainment Weekly state that it will be out December 7.)
