New Line never figured out why people liked LOTR so produced The Golden Compass. Same concept, right?
If you think Warners will do better, they fought against Babylon 5. Could not figure it out either. The mindset of most major studios is less imaginative than a vacant lot.
Didn’t they rip off the Tolkien estate from royalties on LOTR?
New Line produced “Hairspray” in 2007.
Half of my girl’s Christmas presents came from the New Line Shop. Pictures of Zac Efron as Link Larkin, hang all over my house.
I was disappointed that they did Golden Compass after. It was sad.
They have reaped what they have sown.
