The Chronicles of Narnia
Kid Modernist:
Yeah, I agree with you Mnementh, I mean, one of the book's allegory is arguing that it doesn't matter what your religion is, as long as you lead a good life and mean well.
One of the Calormenes who worship Narnia's version of the devil gets into heaven, and they ask Aslan (Jesus) why he is in heaven if he worshiped the devil and Aslan says that basically he lead a good life and did good deeds, and "Nothing good can be done in the devil's name, nothing bad can be done in mine." or something like that.
Mr. Jimmy:
I will see it.

Christian allegory 'controversy' aside,I though this movie was absolutely hum-dinging. There is absolutely no character development whatsoever. Sure,the battle scenes are awesome but why not just watch Lord Of The Rings.
It - An extremely bad adaption of a childrens classic.
Me - Disgruntled movie fan and broken childhood.
Simulacra:
--- Quote from: Switchblade --- I didn't see a talking mouse, for example - but the movie on it's own was pretty quality.
--- End quote ---
Meh, Reepicheep doesn't show up til prince caspian, book 2. the mice were given the power of speech because of the help they gave aslan on the stone table.
Kid: that scene in the last battle wasn't so much about the fact that the calormene did good things, but that he worshipped something wholeheartedly and faithfully and that kind of worship can never be given to something evil.
I felt the movie was rushed. they left out some really good stuff and added some stuff that wasn't there to make it more exciting (e.g. the waterfall scene) but all in all i enjoyed it after i divorced myself from my memories of the book. it was still a good film.
Rawr and Stuff:
The movie was alright, just it definately had Disney written all over it. But then again you can't be expecting a truly epic movie with a PG rating. It could've been done better for sure.
