Or maybe suspend far beyond the gold dust of New Line?<BR/><BR/>Sam, first of all, if it is Oxford then they will be sharing a staircase (says I as the Oxford expert after spending one whole week at Christ Church):). Secondly, myself, I lean toward a red-headed half-Muggle as a roommate for them. Didn't you hear that in the latest revelation from Ms. JKR?Monica Edingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03924540264341924291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103455.post-16672335586768913572007-12-26T16:29:00.000-05:002007-12-26T16:29:00.000-05:00Roger's role just keeps getting better and better....Roger's role just keeps getting better and better. First he survives the movie, then he rides a polar bear.<BR/>Get ready for a love triangle with Lyra, Roger and Will in the sequel. And then a spin-off where Roger and Will share a dorm room with an overweight, beret-wearing goofball.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09492841891625994218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103455.post-2603265097308172652007-12-26T14:18:00.000-05:002007-12-26T14:18:00.000-05:00The image up top is indeed from a video game packa...The image up top is indeed from a video game package, but it also appeared in newspaper ads for a week or two. Then Roger popped up behind Lyra on Iorek’s back, so awkwardly positioned that it's clearly a Photoshop job using what photos were available. (Not that I believe there was an authentic photo of Lyra on Iorek to begin with.)J. L.

O...I suspect that is an image from the video game. Or it could be from one of the many (sigh) deleted scenes ---- they cut off the last few chapters of the book and may have had to cut other stuff to make the reworked movie work as it now does. <BR/><BR/>I was amused before it came out that the television ads showed only the big name adults, not a child to be seen. Guess they are reworking their marketing now.Monica Edingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03924540264341924291noreply@blogger.com
