A look at my lensography and you'll see that I'm a big fan of fantasy fiction and films. This particular lens is a work in progress as more information comes out about the film. So, while you're here, check out my other lenses on upcoming fantasy films and books. I hope to be adding lenses on the upcoming "Dark Is Rising" films in the coming weeks.
- The Golden Compass on Squidoo
- My lens dedicated to the upcoming Golden Compass film starring Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig. Super excited about this one, folks!
- Harry Potter - Severus Snape on Squidoo
