RedLeather:
Must..see movie..this firday...all..can say..is....it's ABOUT DAMN TIME!

Stifled Dreams:
I'm not looking forward to it. I've always had one way that Narnia looked in my mind; I think the movies would ruin that for me. I like living in my own world, I guess.

JJMitchell:
CS Lewis didn't want movies made out of the books.
Its marketed towards Christians which means parts of the book will be left out not because there wasn't time but because they could be anti-religion.

No thanks.

Inlander:
Marketed towards Christians is not the same thing as made for Christians.  I get really sick and tired of all this post-childhood loathing that gets directed towards the Narnia series as soon as people find out it's a Christian allegory.  I read the books as a kid and loved them, so did my brother, so did my mum, so did all my friends, and not a single one of us has converted to Christianity as a result.  Now that I'm older and realise that there's a Christian message in there, but I'm smart enough to be able to view the film on the level of pure fantasy that I enjoyed so much as a kid.

yelley:
this movie doesn't get released in japan until 4.march.2006.

damn.

christian allegory or not, i still want to see it. i loved that book as a kid. sure i have my own views of how the world looked and the movie might ruin that. but that's how it always is with books made into movies and i doubt a bad movie would make me love the book any less. harry potter and the goblet of fire is still my favorite book of the series so far, even though the movie was junk.
