Of liberal 'seekers' And Christ in the movies (Christian-Themed Narnia Dangerous Alert)

A Christian-themed Narnia is dangerous? Yes, warns Canada's liberal press. On the other hand, movies filled with sex, perversion and violence are the ticket to fun entertaiment. Its all that God Talk y'all understand that liberals consider profane.

May be one movie I go to see...

hidden?? Have these people never heard of this story before?

[Rastus]

There was some speculation that the Christian themes might have been squeezed out of the movie version. I hope that's wrong. The person mentioning the possibility said, "I hope so, so everyone can enjoy it." And they need to make a movie version of the Satanic bible that Christians could enjoy. It isn't a two-way street for people like that, though.

An Eco joke. Some people just see dastardly signs everywhere and in the post modern age its the mark of a country bumpkin to identify oneself as a devout Christian.

December 9, 2005 is the opening for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe in thaters nationwide. I'm looking forward to the movie so I can see and hear " the hidden messages".

Apparently not. But then again, it is a Canadian reviewer.

[afnamvet]

thaters rhymes with tators but I meant to type theaters. LOL!

These books are an excellent christian-friendly gift for children, if anyone wants to do some early Christmas shopping

I bet you played Beatles' records backwards when you were a kid. ; )

I saw the trailers for this thing. It's going to make a fortune. Superb release date.

I can't see how they can edit out the Christian messages without completeley changing the story.

I love C.S. Lewis's Christian apologetic writing but don't care much for the Narnia stories. However, I will see the movie.

[grey_whiskers]

Funny, when Christians object to porn, they are by definition close-minded. "Just opt out on your own, but don't you DARE tell anyone else to avoid it."

So what happens when a liberal is confronted with a Christian message?

"Stop, stop, make it quit, nobody go see it !"
followed immediately by:
"See how open-minded I am?"

Cheers!

You might say that if Canada is against I am for it.

I read the entire seven volume set to my 7 YO last winter/spring as a bedtime story. These books are great that way: each chapter takes just about 15 minutes to read out loud. The perfect time alotment for a bed time story.

You know its ironic the most tolerant people on the planet can be so hostile to a different perspective. Of course that's what they don't see.

We saw the trailer for LWW when we saw Serenity. It looks outstanding. The trailer begins with the Pevensie children getting off the train and being taken to the Professor's estate by Mrs. Macready. As soon as my daughter saw the three children standing on the train platform, she sat straight up and gasped. She knew instantly what movie the trailer was for. More interesting still was the audience's reaction to the trailer: There was applause. Serenity was the #1 movie this past week. I wonder how common that reaction was and if the LWW trailer was shown in all of those theaters. That might go a long way toward explaining the liberal's dismay.

After I had a bar of soap, I did.

[afnamvet]

Agreed. Prior to Christmas, I'm sure it will.

We saw the Narnia preview trailer last week. When Aslan appeared on the screen my eyes filled with tears.

I can't wait to see this movie.
