I am very excited to see this movie. I also read all of the books when I was little, and was stoked to hear that were finally making it as a large production. I just hope that my schedule will make it possible to see it soon. I probably won't be able to see until closer to Christmas though.

What would be the youngest age that you guys would suggest would be OK to see the movie? My daughter is 6 years old, so I'm not too worried about her since Rugby took his second grader to it, but my son is only 3 and a half.

Thanks for the reviews guys, I am all the more eager to see it now.

My three year old listened intently and kept up with the story while we read the book, but I couldn't risk taking her. It wasn't too scary and she may have been fine had I taken her, but there's really no way to know. Certainly, it depends on the kid, but I wouldn't go with under six.

OK, I've got to take on this one. Here's the cases I see:

1. Christ isn't God. Point is moot.
2. Christ is God, and does nothing to save man.
3. Christ is God, and sacrifices himself to save man.

How in the world do they see choice 3 as "the most repugnant"? That facet of Christianity sure seems full of hate to me. At least do some research to find a reasonable target if you're going to try and slam Christianity.

Oh, and :roll1:

couldn't agree more. *snickers* that persons "review" is exaclty why i will never label myself as an athiest. people really need to get over themselves. how dare mr. lewis write a book with christian undertones??? that bastard!!! well little miss toynbee, if you want to read a fantasy morality tail with heavy althiest undertones... WRITE ONE!!!!

ill be seeing it with my gf one weds most likely. *shrug* i look forward to seeing it even with the... *shudders* christian bias. as if this is the first story with such a thing :roll1:. personally, im fairly certain ill get over it and will be able to judge the movie objectively unlike miss beedroppings.

So I was supposed to see it on Saturday but got bogged down with work. I'm on for Friday now. . .

One thing I heard about the movie that I like is that it was faithful to the depiction of the children; they weren't "modernized." It will be good to see a movie with kids acting like the kids they are in the story, and not saying, "wazzup Aslan, dat mane you be sportin' is phat!" Or whatever. . .

Did you misspell "crap?"

Too many "A"s the first time? Ten instead of nine? (I agree that nine is the way to go. . .)

No. I wrote "satrical." I don't know what that means. I don't really know what "satirical" means, either, but I thought that sounded better. So, in actuality, I changed words, but I figured that since they're only one letter off, I might get away with saying that I only changed the spelling of the word. But you caught me.

As my punishment for lying about the reason for editing my post, I have decided to insert this brain-eating worm into my ear. In it goes... Hey.. that kind of tickles. AHHHHHH!! CRAAAAAAAAAAP!!!

And people wondered why Star Trek II was pg-13.

It ruined him at his young, tender, impressionable age.

We have a broken Zurp.

Zurp is never broken. He is immortal. At least, as long as he continues to refer to himself in the third person.

I didn't see Star Trek II until I was 20+. Is that the one where the fat Pier 1 chick from Cheers was really young and not fat, yet? She had pointy ears in one of those movies. Is she related to Liv Tyler? Those pointy ears are pretty gross. Can you imagine making out with a chick and her ear pokes you in the eye? Although, what are you doing with your eye so close to her ear? Maybe you're into some kind of weird checking-out-her-ear-during sex thing. I don't follow hip-hop.

I don't know if I was drunk or what, but when were these books/original movies popular? I've honestly never heard of any of the Narnia series.

you didn't have to be a fantasy fan to hear about them... I sure wasn't. In my circles of friends growing up, many christian families read them... tho I don't remember every kid at school talking about the books.
