- The Golden Compass was the past 9th level of The Speed Campaign. On this level, player can earn Top Hat by beating the level.
- Before its release, the film received criticism from secularist organisations and fans of His Dark Materials for the dilution of the anti-religious elements from the novels, as well as from some religious organisations for the source material's anti-Catholic themes. The studio ordered significant changes late in post-production, which Weitz later called a "terrible" experience. Although the film's visual effects won both a BAFTA and an Academy Award, critical reception was mixed.
- The Golden Compass is a fantasy film based upon Northern Lights (also known as The Golden Compass), the first novel in Philip Pullman's trilogy His Dark Materials, and was released on December 5, 2007 by New Line Cinema. The project was announced in February 2002, following the success of other recent adaptations of fantasy epics, and at $180 million is one of New Line's biggest-budget projects ever after a series of box office disappointments preceding the release.
- I'll preface by saying I haven't read these books yet. However, I liked the movie a lot. It's no Lord of the Rings, and they tried to jam a lot into two hours (and it seems like they cut quite a bit to make that running time too), but I loved the visuals and I liked most of the characterizations. Also, it's the first movie I've ever seen where one polar bear slapped the jaw off another - so, w00t for that!

Made for kids, The Golden Compass still had a pretty extensive body count by the end, but blood was replaced by sparkly death swirls when a dying person's animal "soul" familiar went POOF!)
- The Golden Compass is a fantasy film based upon Northern Lights (also known as The Golden Compass), the first novel in Philip Pullman's trilogy His Dark Materials, and was released on December 5, 2007 by New Line Cinema. The project was announced in February 2002, following the success of other recent adaptations of fantasy epics, and at $180 million is one of New Line's biggest-budget projects ever after a series of box office disappointments preceding the release. The story concerns Lyra, an orphan living in a fantastical parallel universe in which the dogmatic dictatorship of the Magisterium threatens to dominate the world. When Lyra's friend is kidnapped, she travels to the far North in an attempt to rescue him and rejoin her uncle. Before its release, the film received criticism from secular organizations and fans of His Dark Materials for the dilution of the religious elements from the novels, as well as from some religious organizations for its perceived anti-Catholic and atheistic themes. The film was met with mixed reviews, and has thus far failed to meet expectations at the U.S. box office, despite performing well internationally.
