Should I preorder Golden Compass?

[nycomet]

Has anyone seen Golden Compass? I'm thinking about preordering Golden Compass but I heard is wasn't that good even though that guy from Casino Royale is in it and he looks even older than he is. What do you think? Is this a kid flick or a chick flick or a man flick? I don't want a fairy tale, but I want something with an intriguing story, good acting, a lush score and stunning special FX. What do you think? I mean is this movie fun and entertaining and would it be a good one to have on a Blu-ray - I mean would it be worth watching more than once or should I just wait for it to come on CineMax or HBO or Stars in HD? What do you think? It also costs $27.95 on Amazon and I really don't like paying that much for a BD unless it is something amazing so what do you think? Should I preorder Golden Compass or wait for the owner of Blu-ray.com to review it so I can really know what it is about and if it has good PQ and AQ and good bonus features? Or should I preorder it and cross my fingers that it will satisfy my needs and an avid Blu-ray fan? I need your advice so please tell me what do you think? I hate to straddle the fence questioning whether or not to buy this movie and once I bought Memento based on reviews that said it was great but I was not impressed - even though the story was okay and the acting was good. So instead of being disappointed I would like the advice of all of the people on this forum so again I have to ask all you people what do you think? I mean should I preorder Golden Compass or not and if I should do you think the best price is from Amazon or from another place and if so where? I would rather order it online and not got to a store because I am trying to save gas, but I still might need to go out anyway, but not tomorrow. Maybe on Friday, even though it might rain, but I have an umbrella but I am getting off the subject which is should I preorder Golden Compass on a Blu-ray disc or should wait for it to come on CineMax or HBO or Stars HD - what do you think?
