The Golden Compass Movie: Recut Ending

[dolorosa-12.livejournal.com]

One of our Sraffies, Energy, has been working on scenes cut from the Golden Compass movie and trying to rebuild the film that director Chris Weitz originally intended. While the fanedit is available to watch on YouTube, you will be able to download it exclusively on Bridge To The Stars.

The original ending to the movie, similar to the book’s ending, was removed three months before the final cut was made, and Energy’s video takes a look at what it could have been if the studio had not forced major cuts.

For more information on the project, go here (Energy’s website about the project) or here (our forum thread that features discussion about the fan-edit).
