Yes let’s adapt a book series with obvious theological underpinnings, emasculate the male characters and convert all the females into omnipotent lesbians. Because that’s what people want to watch.

These people are galactically stupid.

Hollywood makes the movies IT wants to see. They don’t give a damn what you want.

Why did Lewis’ stepsons, the Gresham brothers, agree to this??

The Magician’s Nephew should be fun. Jadis in the book is an archetypal suffragist with bare arms who totally emasculates Uncle Andrew and is more harried by a feisty old biddy.

I can just imagine. The Pevensie children were, after all, white, and that just won’t do. Aslan will be only a lion, of course, and Narnia a place where Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion reign supreme. Twenty people will watch it and it will have a 105% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This whole act is thoroughly tiresome and Hollywood just won’t stop.

I guess Kathleen Kennedy, “the depleted Uranium wrecking ball of American pop culture”, “The destroyer of popular franchises”, is unavailable.

Maybe they should have brought Dylan Mulvaney on board to pilot their submarine to the Titanic.

Obviously Netflix wants to take the same route as Bud Light, money having become tiresome to them.

I think the Barbie movie will be out on July 21st.
That cannot come soon enough. I won’t be seeing it, but I’m tired of all the Pepto-Pink media saturation to promote it.

The star, Margot Robbie has been working ‘overtime’ promoting this film. She’s been everywhere, talking about it. Working alone, with no Ryan Gosling, for the most part. So, making the film is only a part of the actors’ obligation. When it’s done, then you have to travel to and fro, in tireless promotion.
She’s a good sport and can at least pretend she’s enjoying it.

I would cancel Netflix, but I already did 5 years ago.

Why are some people who don’t believe in God so damned obsessed with Him?

I have under appreciated C.S. Lewis as long as I can remember. Narnia was a good movie, if you are into that sort of thing. Not my cuppa...

As far as apologists are concerned in general, I never understood what they were apoligizing for, or why they felt the need to apologize.
