Everyone and Their Dog

To celebrate The Golden Compass' wide release today (review), a film in which every human has an animal "daemon" companion to represent their soul, I'd like to suggest "daemons" for the other movies in release right now... and point you towards earlier posts on the same films. I can't be bothered to write about them again --It's December! Hollywood demands that I try to cram in several movies a week. Since everyone and their dog will soon be celebrating "best of the year" this & that, you'd better cram in several too.

Relax, I'm kidding. It's not that bad.

As for new releases, The Golden Compass is the only wide release this week. It's impossible to give it one animal, since it's veritably teeming with them. But as for quality, is it a rare exotic breed or a mutt? Depends on if you've read the book I think. My review is up @ Zoom-In

Now you play Which animal spirit would you assign to 2007 releases like Eastern Promises, Stardust, Zodiac or others?
