The Chronicles of Narnia

<< < (6/7) > >>

Khar: I have my doubts about a decent Discworld movie, too much of the really important/awesome stuff isn't speech or blocking/action, and would be hard to put into a movie. On the other hand, if they turned the Belgariad into a movie series, I would dance and cry like a small child.

I am going to see Narnia in the new year, once I can be guaranteed there won't be any kids in the cinema with me. Goddamnit I hate being in the cinema with kids. I'm looking forward to it, though I think I'll be a little disappointed. The White  Witch looks awesome, and Liam Neeson as Aslan is                                                             beautiful casting, but the trailer made it look like the children are going to let it down a little.

Sideways:
I thoroughly UN-enjoyed this movie.

But I can't fault the movie itself... what I didn't enjoy was the story, and how completely nonsensical some of it was.  I guess I needed to read it as a child, so I could adore it for what it is, rather than seeing an adaptation of it as an adult - and being exposed to the whole NARNIA thing for the first time thusly - and becoming very critical of it.

It felt like a poor man's LOTR.

Suspended disbelief, look it up.

Sideways:
Yeah... thanks for patronizing.

Just because I didn't like something you liked doesn't mean you have to get snotty.

Subject Philosophy / relativism... look it up.
