ok. i have put this post up and down a few times, because in my first post i wrote about how excited i was to have an ocelot daemon - i have always loved the big cats! but then, suddenly, the daemon changed into a jackal, and i was very confused. now i realise that it will change for the next twelve days if any of you, my loyal readers (all 3 of you) decide to go and check the accuracy of my self-assessment. so i am steeling myself for the possibility that i may not end up with a trusty ocelot companion after all, and leaving the post up.

my original post commented that this is very cool, and that i am childishly excited about this movie, but terrified that they will stuff it up too…i mean, the fact that they had to go with the dumbed-down american name is a bit of a worry, but the sneak preview on the website looks pretty stunning. i just wish they’d cast a Lyra who was a bit more fierce looking. Nicole Kidman as Mrs Coulter and James Bond man as Lord Asriel is great casting though. And Serafina Pekkala looks exactly how i imagined her. so yes, on balance, very excited…
