"It says a lot about empowerment and fractured families coming together."
Uh-oh...That line, and the fact that Disney (which has been successfully boycotted by Christians for the last 3 years or so, leaving them in a tizzy) sink my hopes for this film, which were very high when I first heard the rumors of it last year.
This could have been a great new live-action version.

Yes, the BBC and Home Vision Entertainment did
The Lion through
Silver Chair. I've got the
3-DVD set.
They're very British, low-budget, but well-acted and book-driven.

Didn't you hear? The are talking about splitting Eisner's postition into two parts. Eisner is in more trouble than expected.

"I don't want to give this company (Disney) any of my money"... My first thought....
But, our family loves these stories.... especially our 9yr old daughter...

Right now I have my catechism class reading "The Horse and His Boy". Also, my freshman class is reading "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" in religion class. These are well written, excellent books that tell of Christ very well.

I have the live action one on video. It's an 6 (I think) tape set. Tom Baker (Dr. Who) plays the marshwiggle. I love it.

Yes!!!
How cool is that? (as long as they don't screw it up somehow by making the adults acoholics or the kids hip-hop homos or something)
I'm cautously optomistic.

What a shame that the likes of a giant such as C.S. Lewis has to be associated with the likes of a Michael "Gay Day" Eisner. Eisner may be out any minute now....

Andrew Adamson, who directed "Shrek," will begin filming this summer.
The movie is doomed. Shrek was one of the worst films I ever saw. Just plain bad and horribly scripted.

Having seen a few minutes of Shrek recently, I'm wary of how this Narnia project will turn out. Shrek seemed to include a full cargo of consciouness-raising themes and the sly irony (including some scatology, if I recall) that subverts seriousness.

I was afraid that would be the case. Thank you, Romulus. We did not see Shrek.

Hollywood Math at work.
LOTR makes a ton of money + Passion makes a ton of money =
movies based on a series of books by an Oxford Don about Christian theology will make tons of money.
