With the opening of The Golden Compass this Friday, I thought it would be appropriate to have a movie meet up for members of The Sword and Laser book club! It was the first book that we read together, and so it seems fitting that we all go see how well they adapted the book to film. Anyone is welcome, but I’m theming it for S&L members.
I’m also trying to get a dinner thing set up beforehand. I’ll give out more details tomorrow, probably. Here’s the info for the movie:
The Golden Compass
10:30 PM, Dec. 7th
AMC Loews Metreon 16
101 4th St., San Francisco, CA
Hope to see you there! If you aren’t in the Bay Area, go see it anyway so we can discuss it in the forums!

I am going to see the Golden Compass on friday anyways. but I think i was going to go to an earlier showing. And I am not yet a member of sward and laser. oh well
just saw the movie, cant say much about it though without spoiling anything, just that the visuals are impressive and well done… if you dont get anyone to go see the movie with you, i can always send you a picture of my head you could print out and glue to a cardboard and carry with you as a symbolical gesture…
Thanks, Goog
damn… wish i lived in san fran to attend the meet up… ah well… still haven’t finished the book yet anyways… and i don’t plan on seeing the movie until i’m done with the book. have fun!
Hi - looks like I will be able to get to this… did you come up with a dinner-before place? I’m in Santa Clara and not too familiar with “the City”…
Please, do not see this movie!
No … i hate this movie …
Yes Cameron … do not see this movie!
