which movie?

Narnia. Only children under the age of 12 and have read the books can really enjoy this movie.

So the special effects do nothing for it I gather. I read the book a long time ago ,but I guess from what your saying that its not really a movie adults can relate to.

It runs deeper than the special effects. My biggest gripe was the rateing. Any possible violent or sensational part was so toned down it made scenes look lackluster and unconvincing. Like when someone gets stabbed, there's no blood. It was really hard for me to care or get excited about charcters or events, since it felt so bland and focusless.

The child actors were great though.

Actually I like the OVA's better then the tv series. I got the ones that came with those stupid collectable coins.

well it is a kids movie. but even nowdays those have blood in them. I know Harry Potter does.

by **KunJinky** » Tue Dec 13, 2005 8:44 am

That's the problem, they treated it like a kid's movie.
Disney wanted to make a movie that appealed to ages 4-104, they just forgot everyone in the middle.
Narnia is PG, the last Potter movie is PG-13. If a big part of the movie is someone getting stabbed then the rateing should be bumped anyways.

by **Vlastokov** » Tue Dec 13, 2005 9:17 am

Yeah, Disney made the movie.

A big thing in the news was that they were using Narnia as a way to get Christian support. I've got the article somewhere in my room, but i'll be damned if I go looking for it without at least a knife to protect me.

by **Cataulin** » Tue Dec 13, 2005 9:23 am

I heard about that on teh Colbert Report. A certian part of the movie is like a certian Godly figure rising from teh dead.

by **Xandra Kitee** » Tue Dec 13, 2005 9:29 am

Well, the books are a christian allegory to begin with so...

by **Vlastokov** » Tue Dec 13, 2005 9:33 am

I've returned with the spoils of my journey. With one arm left and jsut enough blood to finish this post, I bring to you, the Chronicles of Jesus.

Oh yeah, I'm badass enough for to live for an edit.

Just uploaded it.

by **Xandra Kitee** » Tue Dec 13, 2005 9:43 am

I'd rather those of Riddick. Much more my type. :x

I've bought candles today. Nice candles.

The bigger news for me was they went after EVERYBODY. Christians only made up 5%.

Sadly, marketing first, movie second.
